Hi so the past few days I have been getting a warning
Siren 1 wireless poll fail
Siren 1 wirls supervin f1
Siren 1 wireless poll fail
The internal alarm has been going off early hours of the morning and during the day
Normally if a battery is going dead it will say battery issue
But can this issue be battery related or any help

It's the battery. I've seen this happen on a few of my sites. No low battery warning, just a poll fail or supervision fault. If you happen to Wireless Bell Supervision enabled in System Options (default is off for ungraded but on for grade 2 clean start) you'll get to a point where it cannot be stopped from intermittently going off without accessing it and physically stopping it.

Pop the module out, delete it and relearn it at the control panel before reinstalling it. Once reinstalled run the signal strength test in diagnostics over several minutes to get the lowest reading. If you get a crap reading it might be failing. At that point Pyronix would advise to learn any device on to the panel and temporarily pop it out at the siren location to compare signal strength (PIR, wireless contact, anything just to test)

I'm not sure how old your Deltabell module is but they were plagued with a bad batch of microswitches and they often fail causing tamper issues not long after battery replacement (as they've been disturbed). If the little button on the switch under the lever is white you're fine, but if it's grey it's one of the bad ones and I'd replace it (or just short it out temporarily if you don't have a spare)

Oh I run the signal strength before replacing the battery it was 0000 signal
I will try what yiu have said
I would say its 4 plus years old

Yeah while it's in fault like that you'll only see 0. When you relearn at the panel you should see 100. Once it's back in its final position you want to leave that diagnostic running for 5 minutes and note the lowest and highest figures. On the basic display it just gives you 0, 1, 2, 3 so make sure you press yes to view the real time accurate signal.

0 - No signal
1 - 0-29 Poor
2 - 30-49 Good
3 - 50-100 Excellent

You should only ever install if it's in the range for 2 or 3. For most installs I do, I usually see 100 for all devices. I have noticed while doing annual maintenance visits that some devices signals seem to degrade over time and zones that once reported 100 go much lower.

Thanks John I deleted it relearn it now has 100% signal hopefully that has fixed my issue
