Alarm System Fault Finder project - EPE Online August 2003

A low-cost fault finder that will find a faulty sensor without the alarm system going off incessantly!

When false alarms occur on domestic and on cheaper/older commercial intruder alarm systems, it is often difficult to know which sensor has caused the alarm, and even if this is known, many panels do not have a soak test and log facility to test the would-be faulty sensor.

This simple, easy-to-build, low-cost fault finder project will let you find the faulty sensor without causing the complete alarm system to keep going off.

This project originally appeared in the August 2003 issue of EPEOnline.   >> PURCHASE <<
