I have an Optima XM6 alarm system installed and has been working without any
trouble for the last 6 years until recently when the internal sounder has
gone off and the Tamper light has come on.I have eliminated the Tamper
circuit as being the problem by linking it out, so could the problem be a
failing back-up battery.
Thanks in advance for any help

My Optima (just bought so may be entirely different to yours) has several
tamper circuits. There is one for the bell box, one for detector wiring and
one for external keypads. There are also two internal spring tamper
switches, one visible on top of the PCB, one invisible behind it. Have you
checked them all?

Trouble started during the hot weather before the storms,but as yet I
haven't checked the bell tamper.Maybe the bell box has moved a bit?
