If you are a customer of Andtech who needs to replace your Wireless field devices,
you should follow and know these important steps. First, all Andtech Alarm Panels
have a Lead Acid Battery that when required to change should be performed under
our direction and care. All old batteries after replacement should be recycled
or disposed of properly. A Panel battery unlike the field batteries should be changed
at least every 5 years (and sometimes more frequently). Field batteries (Wireless
Zones) can be performed by the homeowner, but this is best performed with our awareness
as signals of tampering will be transmitted to central. When a field device battery
approaches the end of it’s life, typically there is a one month grace period
to perform the correction. If your keypad beeps notifying you of a battery dieing,
a simple acknowledgement (usually passcode +off ONE time) will silence the
beep for 24 hours. If you have a modern system, the link below will assist you in
changing out your field batteries. If your system uses the older 9Volt battery or
some other technology, you may be able to follow the directions below but the devices
will not be listed and the batteries used will not be the same.
Remember, Andtech offers, extended warranties and battery change programs to assist
you in keeping your system in top condition, key to maintaining Proactive Security.
Although the lion’s share of the transmitters require the Duracell (or equivalent)
DL123A battery, it is recommended that you verify the battery needed for your transmitter
prior to purchase as device requirements and quantity vary amongst the transmitter
family.
Please note - If after review you feel, it be best that we perform the corrective
action, please contact our office during business hours to arrange a service call.
