I thought I was in big trouble with my system when - this afternoon- I heard two beeps from the panel and discovered no power - on the keypad.
On opening "the box" I was confronted by D1 flashing - nothing else, no LED's on the UCM etc. After a checking AC voltages etc I pulled the off the S12v-com-12v connector and put a meter across the com=12v terminals as going out to sensors etc. I was confronted by 1.9Ω. Next I checked lines to individual sensors and found a PIR that had gone dead short (well 1.9Ω which is likely partly down to cable impedance.)
I have disconnected this sensor for the time being and will put a note of the make and model up here when I replace it.
The main purpose of this post is to ask if there isn't a fusible link or other device on the main board to cover this sort of event.
System has powered up this evening and all would appear to be OK
