9651 Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 it locked,as in you cant default it back to factory parameters. Seriously you'd be better with a eurosec Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/38159-gardtec-500-series/#findComment-411578 Share on other sites More sharing options...
fertilebert Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 PC means no 240 v And #REMOVED# is the default user code , you could get an engineer to crash it and reprogramme , don't think any one on here will give you instructions how to do this however coz its trade only information.

Lwillis Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 As above, they can be locked. Bin it and fit something more up to date.

johnjoeedgar Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 thanks guys for the replies the comment from fertilebert is interesting as ive only powered it up with the battery to see if there was any resoponse from the panel if i connect it to the mains will this make a difference to the codes being put in ?? im not giving up yet this might be the solution to my problem im not bothered if i end up binning it but would like to give it another try Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/38159-gardtec-500-series/#findComment-411603 Share on other sites More sharing options...
fertilebert Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Wont make any diiference code wise, like I said #REMOVED# is the default user code , which has obviously been changed , If your lucky the engineer code will still be the default and you will be able to reprogramme it .Your eng manual for your other Gardtec panel is the same by the way if you can find it , otherwise you will probrably find a manual on line .
