Follow the above instructions (method 1) as posted by service engineer.

Should be fine

will try thanks. gary

Dave - seeing as this forum cant give out engineer manuals don't you think it's a little irresponsible having user code defaulting in the post above?

I will second that motion

NOT any more, its been edited.

When the descision not to give out engineer manuals was taken, all the mods edited as many posts as possible, but some of the old ones still pop up.

There are thousands of posts to edit, a few will get through the net.

well i would just like to say thanks as at least we have some sembelance of control over the panel, now at least we are in a position to asses whether to rectify the one fault or a new system. it at least means we are not in a panic to get the first alarm company.(much like plumbers). thanks. gary

soory i didnt mean to insult you , just a upgrade ,i finally got through to the installer who hadnt got any records of the engineers code... and said i should default the panel!!. everything seems to work except when armed it comes up with 12h alarm. the only things left now are connecting up the siren box batterys, which i noticed had been cut, presumably when somebody else didnt have the code. thanks gary
