Accenta G4 external siren only sounds on bell test

[crooksy88]

Hi, I have an Accenta G4 8SP399A with a single LCD keypad.

Everything seems to be working correctly other than the external bell doesn't sound when the alarm is triggered, the strobe lights do light up though.

If I do a bell test via the engineers menu the external bell does sound.

Would anyone have an idea what might be causing this?

Thanks in advance.

Is the applied negative working when the panel is in alarm mode? Maybe the circuit board isn'g sending the signal, connect both bell and strobe terminals to whatever the strobe is connected to in the panel and see if that works

I seem to remember there is a bell delay time on there? Make sure that is set to 00.

Thanks for your suggestions. When I went back to test the alarm again the external bell sounded. Perhaps it just needed a while to have a think!
