Guest Guest_CCubed_* Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 I have an optima G3 which I can nolonger set. If I enter the code the attack light flashes. (which I can reset) If I press prog ready to enter the engineers code none of the lights come on. Normally you get a full set of eight. So I cant enter engineering mode. All the normal day functions seem to work except those which need to enter program mode, ie chimes and tamper causing internal alarm. They all reset OK. And the code silences the tamper alarm. Any ideas as to the problem. I am about to try - resetting panel to factory set conditions - but before I do??

Guest Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 Could be a Panel fault or it needs a panel default and reprogramme? - We cant talk you through that on a public forum though sorry. Have you thought about posting your location, someone on here may be able to help you out and get the system serviced for you at the same time. Dave.

Guest CCubed Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 Thats the conclusion I have come to, just wanted to check I had not missed something obvious. I can understand why resets cannot be discussed. I will come back if I cant get the reset to happen. Thank you for your help Chris Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/6782-optima-g3-attack-flashing/#findComment-60825 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CCubed Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 Went for the power on reset. All is up and running again. Very useful to chat it through with you guys on line. Thanks again I took your advice and gave it a service. Sure enough it need a new battery so you probably saved me a fried board. Thanks again. Chris.

Guest Scottish Engineer Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 We have had the same problem with one of our customers. When he was trying to change the user code he pressed the wrong button. I went out and reset the panel back to factory and re programmed. It has been working ever since.
