A Quick Look At An Optima XM6 Burglar Alarm Control Panel 

Hey thank you but when I put the alarm on for zone 4 upstairs whenever anyone enters the property the alarm sounds after my hubby comes home from nights. Basically how can I get more entry time?

Thanks for putting this up can you please advise me - my outside boxes little red lights have stopped flashing - The strobe works but there is no sound is it a Wall box battery issue please ?

I hope you can help. This was installed before I bought the flat and have been using it for a few years. When I was leaving the flat the other day I must have hit the wrong number and since then I've been unable to use my alarm. I am unsure if I accidently changed the number by mistake? I've been looking at the manual online and have tryed to reset it but had no luck. Any ideas?

Hi mate, I've got the optima XM6 and turned the main fuse board off for most of the day due to work being done but when I turned the board back on the control panel on the alarm no longer works! The red power light is on but nothing else. I opened it up and it has a battery inside connected. I went to disconnect the battery but then the outside bell box went off so I reconnected the battery again and the alarm stopped going off! But I still have no function on the panel apart from the red power light which is still on!! What do you think mate, what should I do??

Cool

How do I disarm this unit? It doesn’t have it’s own fuse on the main board, so??? Help please !

lol I used to have one of these with ONE sensor. I also had a bell box with an actual bell in it!

i turned off the main power off then on again. Alarm wont turn off even when i input correct code?? help

Hi Jake,I've a problem with the tamper light coming on after the alarm randomly going off even when it's not set.Can I deactivate the tamper,if so which steps should I take to do it? Thanks

First one to look after 44 secs of publishment

How do you pair it with a telephone so when alarm goes off it rings your phone to let you know? I had it previously but I changed my telephone number.

Hi anyone know how to disarm when in tamper mode thanks

i have the Optima XL6 but i broke the screw hole on mine so the cover wont screw shut anymore but never mind as i will probarbly find a fix for the cover to keep it closed.

Hey bud like your dry sense of humour and video. Ive two questions that I can’t find answers for. My alarm is installed in my garage. Can you tell me how to reduce the volume of the alarm please as mines too deafening also my alarm goes off near immediately as soon as garage doors open the PIR sensor picks up my body heat, goes off and before I can disarm it. How can I give myself 30 more seconds to get to it to be able to disarm it without it going off as if I’m a burglar? Thank you.

I’m looking at removing an optima XM, I’ve bought a house with one installed and don’t have the code. Tried to unscrew the panel which set off the alarm. I quickly disabled it by removing the fuse to the box isolating the power supply. If I open the box & remove the battery will that mean the alarm won’t go off as it’s got no power to sound or will the alarm be wired into the mains? What’s the best way of disabling (without a code) and removing the whole unit & internal sensors from living room etc. Hope you see this, Thanks!

Hi, For the past few days the alarm gets activated by itself without setting it up. Do you think it is the battery that needs to be changed or any other issue. I hope I get to know something helpful from you. Many thanks.

The bleeping on my box is sooo low how to i increase the volume?
