Hi, i keep getting a single fault beep at 3.20am most mornings. When I walk past the sensor by my bedroom door, the beeping stops, so assume it's a problem connected to that sensor. The sensor is hardwired, so not a battery issue. System light does show on alarm. Can you help why the sensor is triggering a fault and is it connected to bleeping at same time every morning. How is it fixed?

A single fault beep from the NAPCO XP-400 alarm system may indicate a communication failure or a telephone line issue. If the hardwired sensor by the bedroom door is causing the beep, it could be due to a faulty connection, a misaligned sensor, or a wiring issue.
To fix this: 1. Check if the sensor is properly aligned and securely connected. 2. Inspect the wiring for any loose or damaged connections. 3. Test the system by opening and closing the door to see if the fault clears. 4. If the problem persists, reset the system by following the manual's troubleshooting steps. 5. If the issue continues, contact the installing company for service.
