Detex support FAQ

Domande frequenti su manuali, registrazione e supporto per questo marchio.

  • How do I change the battery on my Detex alarm?

    For most models like the EAX-300 or EAX-500, remove the cover or battery retainer to access the 9-volt battery. Disconnect the old battery and install the new one. Settings are typically retained during a battery swap.

  • What does a chirp every 45 seconds mean?

    A chirp approximately every 45 seconds, often accompanied by a flashing red LED, indicates a low battery. Replace the 9-volt battery immediately.

  • How do I arm the Detex exit alarm?

    Close the door and turn the key counter-clockwise (CCW) to the 'ON' position. The red LED will typically blink twice to confirm the device is armed.

  • Chi posso contattare per il supporto tecnico?

    You can reach Detex Technical Support at 1-800-729-3839 (Option 2). Support is available Monday through Friday during business hours.

  • What should I do if the device is not arming?

    Check that the battery is fresh and properly installed, ensure the magnet is aligned correctly with the sensor, and verify that the Key Stop or cylinder cam is installed properly.
