Hello Declan,

As far as I know, 48Z02 is a zero-power SRAM with Li
battery built-in, GM76C88AL-12 is a SRAM and 68HC11
have an internal A/D 8bit converter and 8 analog
inputs. I don�t think this A/D is precise enough for
this application so it might be another A/D chip on
board (?).
Not a bad idea to look for a supply failure, maybe one
voltage is missing since you have same alarm on all
channels.
I hope this will help you a bit.

All the best,

Mircea Coman
