Troubleshooting
I am installing my Yale Standard alarm, but I can’t disable the siren tamper. Why is this?
Your keypad may not be programmed in correctly to the siren.
You must take down the siren to do this (you may find the alarm will go off)
Turn the siren off using the on/off switch inside the siren, leave it off for 1 minute, then turn it back on and it will beep and flash. If this does not work, please remove one battery from the siren and leave it for at least 5 minutes and then place it back in
Once this has happened please press the buttons on every device (please note the siren should beep every time a button is pressed on a device) to learn them back into the siren
To learn the keypad back in press buttons 8 & 9 at the same time
Step 1
