PeterJames Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Landlord probably blew the internal fuse, get him to pay for an engineer to come out and sort it Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/32277-gardtec-500/#findComment-278966 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its unlikely thats what it needs anyway Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/32277-gardtec-500/#findComment-278974 Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichL Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 A "-" (underscore) on a 500 indicates that it is set. If the user code is not unsetting it then you need to 1) crash the panel and reprog, or 2) use the engineer code to program the user code. If no one knows the eng code then see 1). Its an old panel anyway and your landlord sounds like a plonker. I wouldn't trust or use the system. Originally said by Charles Babbage On two occasions I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.
