It is potentially an issue but bear in mind this is used just to reset the system. No menu access can be gained with it so its not a security risk Imo.

Just a loose urn risk if mr end user can gain access to reset the alarm.

It's a hard one to make better though. If you are limited to 0-9 on 5 digits, it can only be so secure, but a seed at least as long as the reset code would make it better.

Out of interested which ones have you looked at ?

I'm surprised the old Redcare remote reset idea where the arc sends a reset command wasn't more popular.

Technistore and one other. Not wanting to name as I can't openly source it.

That's interesting. With no seed, the only protection is keeping the executable secret.

worse still they give away UDL software to every man & this dog which contains the anticode software too!

which dog?

That does annoy me a little. Although it seemed a bit heavy handed, technistores more restrictive nature was a preferred option to including the reset tool with UDL software as why does the alarm co really need it? If they are udling to the panel the engineer code will reset anyway so don't see why they need it.

So I guess I need to start ripping UDL software apart now?
