I have a DEI Python 1500ESP alarm system, with the 516U voice module. I didn't really need it but since I owned it I had it put in. Unfortunately, I don't think they installed it correctly.
The problem is when I press the Silent Mode keypad combo (Aux + lock buttons), the chirp is correctly silenced, but the voice mod still announces the status of the system. This is very annoying, as I often want to silently arm and disarm without disrupting those around me, but the voice is never silenced no matter what.
For those familiar with this setup, what exactly does it mean if the voice module is not silenced when arming/disarming using the Silent Mode? Specifically, what wire/jumper is not attached or should I be looking for on the system or the voice module, to get both to work in conjunction with one another?
THANKS IN ADVANCE!

I'm sorry, it's a 516L, but I believe they are pretty much the same with some slight feature upgrades in the L.

For silent mode the brown wire has to be connected and the switch 3 has to be on.
