Veritas R8 Plus & Excel Installation Manual
Replace the screw covers.
Press
to leave the Programming Menu. All the zone
lights will turn off.
Switch on the mains supply to the control panel. The Power
light will stop flashing and stay on continuously.
Trouble Shooting
ALWAYS Ensure the mains is off
BEFORE removing the front cover
When replacing a fuse always observe the specified rating and
type - failure to do so is dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
Fuses should comply with IEC 127.
No Power to the Unit (Mains Only)
Check the mains block fuse and replace if blown.
Check for any loose wires at the mains block, the transformer
and the AC terminals on the PCB.
Check the mains block is connected correctly; live to live
(brown), neutral to neutral (blue).
No Power to the Unit (Battery Only)
Check the battery fuse F1 and replace if blown.
Check for any loose wires at the BATT terminals on the PCB.
Check that the battery wires are connected correctly; red from
BATT+ to the battery positive (+), black from BATT- to the
battery negative (-).
No Power to the Unit (Mains & Battery)
Check the power supply output fuse F5 and replace if blown.
Disconnect all wires from the control panel SAB A and AUX+
terminals.
Check that links are only fitted in the correct places.
Check there are no wires shorting to the underside of the PCB.
Repeated blowing of the battery fuse F1 may indicate a faulty
battery.
Unit Does Not Accept Code
If using more than one RKP, check that each RKP has a
different address.
If using one or more RKPs, check that they are wired correctly.
If the remote keypad was connected after the control panel was
powered up, disconnect all power momentarily and reconnect.
This automatically configures all remote keypads on the system,
(also see page 24).
Check you are using the correct codes. Factory-set Engineer
code is
. Factory-set User code is
If using one or more RKPs on battery only, try using mains as
the battery may be flat.
Check that the codes have not been changed. If the codes
have been lost (see page 23).
Check that the membrane keypad tail is all the way home in its
connector on the PCB.

Unit Will Not Set and Bleeps 10 Times
The Power light on the panel will be flashing to indicate a power
fault, either mains fail or battery low volts.
The mains frequency may be set incorrectly (see page 22).
The procedure for setting the system in the event of a power
fault is described in the User Guide.
Unit Will Not Set and Bleeps 9 Times
The system has a tamper fault and the Tamper light will be on.
Using the extended display during Walk Test (see page 23) identify
the cause of the tamper fault:
If the extended display identifies the fault as an EOL tamper
then identify the zone(s) from the normal display and check
the zone wiring.
If the extended display identifies the fault as bell box tamper,
then the cause may either be Bell Tamper or Global System
Tamper. Temporarily replace the system tamper link (TAMP):
Remove ALL Temporary Links.
If the extended display identifies the fault as lid tamper, it may
refer either to the control panel or the remote keypad(s). Try
stretching the springs and ensure all connections are secure.
To set the system with a tamper fault use the following
procedure:
Enter the User code
9 bleeps. Press
are about to be armed. Press
off. Press
To prevent repeated false alarms due to an intermittent tamper
fault when the system is unset, omit Tamper as described
above, then abort the setting procedure by re-entering the
User code.
To prevent Tamper from being omitted (see page 21).
Unit Will Not Set and Bleeps 1 - 8 Times
The system has one or more zone faults and the corresponding
zone light(s) will be on.
Ensure that the zone is closed (doors shut, no movement in
PIR detection area).
Check the zone wiring and ensure all connections are secure.
Check that detectors are powered correctly (i.e. correct
polarity).
Unit Goes Into False Alarm
.
Check that the terminal screws are fully down on all terminals
but do not over tighten.
If you have a meter use it to check the loop resistance (wires
that run under carpets are easily damaged).
If the tamper fault persists then it is due to the Bell Tamper
- check the bell wiring, the bell lid and/or screw tamper,
and the bell wall tamper (if fitted).
If the tamper fault clears then it is due to the system
tamper. Remove the system tamper link and the tamper
fault will reappear - check the system tamper wiring and
the lid tamper on all detectors.
. The system will sound a repeating series of
. The display will illuminate the zones that
. The exit tone and exit timer will start.
