Starting a new thread after reading IQ Panel Beeps Twice An Hour.
My IQ Panel 4 (319.5MHz Verizon) shows 0 alerts/notifications. The Alarm.com panel shows no alerts/notifications.
I have attempted to disable the Panel Tamper alarm, but the sound keeps playing every 30 minutes.

Any suggestions?
Check local history at the panel, Settings > Status History may have information but I’m not seeing anything in Alarm.com history. Do you know what time the beeps occur?
Additionally, go to Settings > Advanced Settings > Enter Installer/Dealer/Master Code > System Tests > Panel Test. Run all (the siren will sound for the Siren test). Afterwards, do any issues crop up ?
If an issue pops up, what is it? If no issue pops up and all the tests pass, reboot the panel Settings > Advacned Settings > Reboot. Does the issue resolve.
I have tried the panel test and everything passed.
I tried a reboot and the beeping now occurs at :24 and :54 past the hour instead of :07 and :37.
Perform a full power cycle. To do so:
I had this happen and it drove me nuts.
I got a tamper alert for a panic button. Check the device and it was closed.
tamper alert never showed up again on panel nor on notifications on ADC
Changed the battery and after about 4 hours (panel beeping every 30 minutes) it cleared and the panel stopped beeping.
The takeaway is that the tamper was probably caused by low batter and had I not seen the 1 tamper alert, I probably would still be trying to figure out the beeping. Nots sure why it didn’t report low battery.
Not sure if this helps
I was able to finally do the full power cycle. The beeping resumed.
The only noteworthy piece of the install was this screen:

Run a daughter card test. Does the card show failure?
Outside of that, the beep linked above is related to the Low Battery Trouble Beep (can confirm in Settings > Advacned Settings > Sound > Edit Trouble Beep Chimes > Sensor Low Battery
You can verify if there is a low battery by going to Settings, then Status. Under the “Current Status” tab, there is a column for Battery. You can scroll through that and verify if any sensor has a low battery.
How long has thie issue been occuring, since first reported or for longer?
That was the issue. Just strange how I had just replaced that battery and it’s still reporting Low. I replaced the battery again and did the same thing. I suppressed the low battery chime and it stopped.

Sometimes when replacing a low battery, you need to leave it out for about 30 seconds before replacing it with the fresh battery but this is typically only seen on life safety devices (like smoke detectors).
Card fails:
Do a complete power down of the system.
Power up battery first, then power supply, wait 5 minutes then run the daughter card test again. What is the result
