scuttle101 Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Hello, Had an alarm system fitted in my home around 8 years ago. The original installer came last year and serviced it & fitted a new battery in the control box etc. Everything works great. He has since retired and moved away. I’m just about to get an electrician to re-position one of the PIR sensors and I’m wondering how I tell the alarm not to go off when he’s doing the work! I’ve got a Eurosec CP8L keypad and I know the engineers code but could someone tell me the process for putting the system into a sort of ‘maintenance mode’? And then how to get it back to normal service afterwards? Ive read the manuals but I haven’t a clue!

datadiffusion Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 (edited) Enough already!* In any case, won't any installer that isn't the original one probably have to crash the system? I can't remember now if it's full factory reset or codes only on this one... Of course, it might be user tamper reset, even on case tamper, which IIRC is the default. *that's what you can shout, covers both bases Edited October 8, 2019 by datadiffusion So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/43177-scuttle/#findComment-489457 Share on other sites More sharing options...
