jaelectrics Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Hi, I'm an electrician and doing some work for a customer that involved removing power to their alarm system. The system is a Manvier ts 900 and had a flat battery. I have changed this but now need to reset the system. The system is out of contract with Chubb and requires a 'seed code' to reset the alarm so it can be used following the installation of a new battery. Is it possible to get the 'seed' code without getting a new contract with chubb? Any help would be much appriciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james.wilson Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 It will need either a visit from chubb or a wipe and reprogram. The second option need not be done by chubb. securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

Thanks for this, it's what I thought may be the case. I was hoping to save my customer some money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alterEGO Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 May not need a wipe and re program, depends on the seed. Where is the system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hpotter Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 if you only wipe the codes I'd suggest checking the rest of the progging carefully. you is liable after. personally would do full reset & prog from scratch, then full check all on system. have taken over jobs before where old firms engineers have been called out of hours, and simply disabled kit in progging, customer unaware etc. we re-enable & suddenly they get false alarms. so check, & get customer to be aware of the potential pitfuls.

Guest Oxo Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 You can reset without crashing. Also Mr H, it will not effect programming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrHappy Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 I was hoping to save my customer some money. no good deed goes unpunished my advice would point the cleint towards a proper alarms co. I suspect the non contract alarm had more faults than a duff battery the more you meddle with it the more likley the client will expect the "while your here mend it for free" Mr Veritas God Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hpotter Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 You can reset without crashing. Also Mr H, it will not effect programming. thats why I'd do full crash. then you have to prog yourself, as you are responsible thereafter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
