Do you need to be connected the AC adapter to the pad and alarm everytime? Which is the output voltage and current for the pad and alarm?

The pads are not physically connected to anything. The alarm unit can be run by either an AC adaptor or batteries. Recommend buying the adaptor and keeping batteries in it for when you want to move around with the alarm. The alarm unit comes automatically calibrated to the sensor pads. The alarm unit plug indicates it takes DC 6~12v. Kerr Medical sells a 9v adaptor separately.

The chill pad does not come with an AC adapter, but you can purchase one separately. However, it does come with a USB plug, which you can use to power the chill pad from your laptop.

This is not a low voltage pad, But I must say mine works great. Not worried about higher voltage as the power is lowered by the controls.

The OUTDOOR or EXTRA sirens (not the little one that comes with the main unit for indoor use) - does need 110v outlet (it actually uses like 12v - the transformer is in the plug - so don't be tempted to cut the plug and wire direct or you'll fry it. - yes - I did just that. :( but thats all it needs - it doesn't need any other wiring from the alarm - the activation comes thru wirelessly and yes they are very loud. Also - I've called the Fortress tech support a couple times to ask about other accessories, etc. and he is VERY VERY helpful and calls back fairly quickly if he can't answer so don't be afraid of purchasing this unit. We installed our entire system in 2 buildings in about 25 minutes. The stick-on door sensors have fallen off a couple times (triggering the alarm) - but we just took them down and screwed them in. I don't think we cleaned the surface very good so the glue didn't stick. I had a dif. system and never used it - so I upgraded to this system and love it - its so simple to operate.

I had a similar situation. I used this without a problem. My house had 1276 alarms and this one was plug and play. Actually I was upset with my alarms in my house. This alarm came with a date of manufacture and my house ones did not.

If you connected to alarm panel bpard, you need to reset pn panel because this is wire run trou panel.

You need to find a AC adapter which output voltage is 12.5V, output current is 2.5A. Go to the market to find one.

Neither battery or 120v, mine is hooked into the either 12v dc or 24 AC on my alarm panel not sure which one, buts its certainly a low voltage line...dont know if 120v would be too much...but would expect the specific unit's capabilities are in the data shert on GE's website

You can unplug the alarm from the pad and the alarm is disengaged till it't plugged in again.

You no longer need the one that came with the system... the energizer will charge the pad.

The only thing I can think of is incorrect wiring or you have it hooked up to something that is trying to draw more amperage than the unit can handle and it's tripping rather than switching anything on. Perhaps it's a protection circuit? Have you tried hooking it up to something that draws lower power? I had mine wired to a heating pad as a warming pad for a while to start seedlings. Then I wired it into a home made aquarium type heater. I don't get any 'alarms', my unit works perfectly every time. I'd have to see how you wired it and what it's wire to in order to help. Sorry.

I'm not sure what you mean by the term "AC adapter". It does come with a power unit allowing it to be powered by plugging it in to a 110 power source like a wall plug. Without the power unit connected, the uBee unit does nothing. In fact, when I want to reboot the uBee modem, I unplug the AC connection for about one minute and then re-plug the connection.

Mine worked just fine out of the box after I instaled the wires to my current alarm. I suggest you check to make sure the batteries are installeld correctly. I do not remember if there were toggle siwtches that need to be set to make it work but I think not. Check to make sure you installed the wires corrrectly in your current alarm. Absent that working, call the help number on your installation document. Good luck. I love mine.

The alarm has exposed wires, no plugs. Setting this up with an adapter would require some creativity and would probably be a fire hazard. You could make it work but there are better solutions for an interior alarm.

there is no "output" voltage, it is just a switch that can be wired(series) into your system (alarm or monitor).

The sensors are wireless and battery operated, but the "receiving unit" with audible and visual alarm indicators is wireless but not battery operated, it needs an outlet to be plugged in.

I don't know the answer. We bought it to go with the alarm pad for my Dad when he was still alive.
