Question on alarm system

(1/2) > >>

ramhouse:
Have a ds 7000 system, set the alarm and left the house and 2 hours later the alarm went off, question is will the alarm go off if a power outage happens, found out that the power had went out at about that time, the battery lite never went on that it was low on the console, has this happened to anybody.the console registered that #1 sensor picked up something, but it has good batteries, I have had this system for 5 yrs and have never had this happen, I did change the battery in the console anyway.

Tuicemen:
You don't say what the #1 sensor was or where it was mounted.
Was it a motion sensor? These will see small rodents.

I've never had the console trip from a power outage

ramhouse:
the motion sensor is mounted on a wall about 6' high and is in line of sight, the batteries are new, the reason that i think it could be the power outage is that the times are pretty close as to when the power went out and when i received the alarm call give or take a few minutes

Tuicemen:
Do you know what caused the power outage?
Was it just a power blip ?
Or was the power out for some period of time?

I found the motion sensors were always triggering the alarm at my off grid place so I removed them from my setup.
Being the house was log there was movement with settling so I assumed that was the reason in my case.

ramhouse:
power was out for about 15-20 minutes maybe, I,ve had these sensors for 5 plus yrs never had a problem with them the only thing that happened that day was the outage
