    u means unset
    a means alarm
    5 means zone 5 or could be an s which means set
    t means tamper
    l means lid.
    the lid off the panle must be loose or the tamper spring which the lid closes on is dislodged and causing a tamper fault

    Doesn't sound too serious. Like north dublin said there is a lid tamper & the last actication was zone 5.
    Sort the lid tamper & it will set as normal, if it still shows A5 with everything closed you have a faulty sensor or contact on that zone.
    Fairly old all right. You should consider upgrading.
