AT&T 8000

[Pop]

got an AT&T 8000 alarm system. the main battery went bad and I replaced
it. The low battery for the Central Control won't reset. How do I reset
the low battery for the CC. It starts beeping every day.

Press Messages until it displays all troubles then Clear Display to erase
then Test/Demo to exit

However that system is so old who knows if it'll reset

it's a classic =. yea, tried all that. tried user test mode [code &
off, then hold test button ], installer test mode [code & off, then press
test once and all 4 buttons at same time], powered up and down, with and
without battery hooked up. no luck. I'll give it a few days to
straighten up then I'll replace it. Goodbuy old friend ATT8000, were
gonna miss ya after 20 years of flawless duty. snif. Don't suppose thos
old transmitters wok with any thing else? pobably ont.

Best damn panel ever made, the gods wept when AT&T discontinued it, far
better than anything Moose ever did

lots bigger can too!

Before I gave up all hope, I'd check the charging circuit to make sure
it's putting out, and also try a different battery. Maybe there
actually IS a low battery problem.

it's charging, with a new battery. old battery had split and oozed. The
consarned beeping has stopped but the battery trouble won't clear. it
appears the beeping part knows the battery has been replaced but the led
part doesn't know so it stays lit. I can live with that though. I will
check battery mor often now.

AT&T 8000, eh? LED won't turn off you say? Hmmmm...I'd try a 12 gauge with 1
oz. of # 6 shot. Should kill the LED.

thats what I thought you were referring to....8300......when you said best
damn panel ever made........musta been a joke. haha. although the 8300 is
/ was a good panel. removeable board like the moose.

Oh sure, I'd expect a response like that from a MOOSE guy

Moose panels are tougher. You'd need at least # 4 buck to take one out.
