assuming as you say 0abcd then its not on default codes. But I only know the uk panels and they may have different defaults. I think they are printed on the pcb in the aerial area.

if the code was correct it wouldn't wait for any more digits

The default code has a 0 at the start so I'm not sure whether that's supposed to be the first digit of the code or they mean to use it as a prefix. In any case I've tried 0 + the code and 00.

Ok, managed to "hack" it and fault has disappeared! Code was obvious and I won't get a job as a professional hacker!

0 is clear on this panel

On my keypad, the "play/quit" button backs out of the menu.
0 prompts for a user code. Presumably quick codes can be configured in the engineer menu if I can figure out the code to get into it.

Quoted default engineer's code appears to work now since I cleared the fault by resetting the panel.

All the information needed is in the Installer manual, one thing it says is that Engineer codes should not include the number 0.

cant use 0 in code as its the clear button

as a side note use 5 digit codes g2 as 9 available digits doesnt give 10000 differs

Yes, discovered that. The 0 at the start of the default code on every page of the manual must be a misprint.

no its to make sure the code entry is clear. Always tell clients the code is 0xxxx then they cant cock up code entry

Ok, thanks guys for all the help. Hopefully the external sounder hasn't been damaged. 12 volts would have been placed on the -ve trigger by my **** up. Will check it tomorrow. Have notified HKC about their document error.
