Guest anguscanplay Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 intersting thought Gus,as all we can do is change settings within pre-allowed perameters, we don't actually 'write' anything just design a system with in them. see i do though, i retain ownership of any "logo`d or signwritten component ............." in my terms and conditions and proggrame my name and number into the text banner food for thought.

kensplace Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 ...colin, no you cant lock a gal but assuming you havnt left it wide open you need to wipe the lot to remove the code (mostly). Its something im seriously looking at but loath to change from a panel i have had great support from since changing too. But i do feel this will become a bigger issue in time to me than it currently is. No idea on the newer galaxies but on the classics its possible to change the defaults for the engineer/user/remote code directly on the eprom (via a burner) so if the panel is defaulted the code will not be the usual default code, but one you choose. Just tried it on a galaxy 60 (along with some other minor changes to wording etc) and seemed to work fine, and it powered up just fine and operated as normal during the quick test.) Course modding the eprom would probably invalidate a warranty or possibly grading (but then again maybe not, no idea on that particular kettle of fish....). It stops someone from being able to use the standard default codes if the default the panel completely, but it still wont stop someone from finding out the code you used, if its on the board its readable without much hassle with the right equipment (and full access to the alarm etc etc) so in some ways it could be less secure as your eng code could become known leaving you in trouble.... You could always use one set for the 'defaulted' condition and another for normal use, so if something happens and the code is the 'defaulted' custom one you know the board has been defaulted, and if someone read that code it would not work on a undefaulted system.... If that makes any sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
