Gin Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Hi, I'm in need of some help/advice please. I'm tying to find out how to reset the master and engineer codes, with only the user code known. The system was installed by ADT but is now no longer serviced by them. I'm getting false alarms on one of the PIR's every so often. I would like to programme this out of the system to test and reprogramme a new compatible PIR in if necessary. I don't believe this can be done with only the user code? Not sure if you have enough info here. Please let me know if not. Thanks in advance for any help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al-yeti Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Can't give it out on this forum, but why not just pay an engineer to reset them for you, normally small one off cost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was hoping to do it myself really, would probably find it an interesting job too. Thanks for the reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixwheeledbeast Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 For security reasons we cannot disclose factory reset or engineers codes for systems. It wouldn't be very secure if anyone could poke about in your alarm system. If the sensor is programmed omittable you can arm the system omitting the one sensor each time for now as an option. If it's wireless it may just need a service and some batteries, especially if it's been longer than 12 months since an inspection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gin Posted March 17, 2017 Author Share Posted March 17, 2017 I already tried changing the battery and am pretty sure nothing in the room could be causing a fa. I don't have the option to omit any zone unfortunately. If I were to call a professional to reset the codes for me, what would I expect to pay, roughly? Thanks chaps.
