Thank you for this great information. Factory reset didn't work for me to reset to 5555, despite no relay clicks. Thanks to you, I found that it reset it to 6321 ADT code. Thank you for such a helpful video!

I installed a better control panel and found out the user code 5555 would not work so I used a jumper wire like you said and it worked great, now I have a new user code and I can finish setting up alarm system!! Thanks

I have a DSC power 608 that has functioned ok with a trouble condition 3 (phone line - we don't have one, that's the only trouble). A few weeks ago we had a power cut, and then alarm was activated. Returning to power, I found that the battery was dead. Replaced that, and still have trouble 3, but this time cannot activate the alarm. Also don't have engineer code, and have tried lots of combos, including the obvious / advertised. So, tried the process in this video to reset engineer code to get in and bypass telephone line. Didn't get very far - took out power, then unplugged battery, and all hell broke loose! Put back battery, and panel went into 'program' mode for a while - then gave up and all hell again! Quick apologetic WhatApp to neighbours, then cut all power to house, waited, reconnected, and panel back to where I was pre-power cut: ready to arm with trouble 3 (and 8 too, but I can sort out date/time). In summary, the process didn't work for me, and I'm now back working, but I've no idea how! And nobody here (Bournemouth, Dorset UK) will service the alarm either. Hate the alarm, hate keypads, hate engineer codes (or lack of). But at least I can activate the alarm again🙂.

I have a DSC PC1616 (also don't know installer code) and when press *8 to get into installer programming, it gives me a long beep and doesn't allow me to enter any code; pressing. *2 works to see any warning status. Does this mean installer code is locked out? When i completely power down and power back up, there's not clicking sound. I could use some help? Should i try the hard reset anyways?

Question: Are you saying there is an installer code PLUS a lock out code or the installer code also serves as a lockout code if you don't know it? Mine clicks like in yours and when I called the people that installed it thorugh the builder they gave me 2 installer codes and neither worked. Is there another code too?

Hi - I bought a home and it had adt, and we’ve been using it for just the door chimes, recently the wrong button got pushed and it’s now armed in away mode... and I don’t know the code and the company doesn’t have a code. What should I do? I want to plug it back in and use the door chimes, but every time I turn it on it’s on armed mode. Help?? 🥲

Hi Kyle - I tried to send this message via your webpage but it won’t let any forms be submitted and says contact the site administrator. I have a quick DSC alarm question which I’m wondering if you can help me with please. I’ve just powered down my PC1616 (V4.60) (including taking off battery); left it overnight and powered back up. I can't get my RFK5500 keyboard to auto enroll now on powering up. It powers up and the date/time correctly set and then when I press a key the screen says Press (*) to Select Partition. When I do that I get another screen which shows the numbers 1,2,3 through 8 and under the Partition number 1 is the letter N. I can select that for the system and it then says registering. However, it doesn't keep it and after about 2 minutes it forgets it. Any ideas on cause / solution please?

hello, and thank you for your tutorials. I again have a fault 1-3 "general system fault" yet the alarm works correctly, commissioning, shutdown, ... sending to home automation on my app ... it's happened 2 times already and I called an alarm company each time who disconnected the 2 x batteries and cut the main power supply and restarted the DSC, then the fault disappeared. The batteries are less than 1 year old and work very well But apparently during a micro power cut?, the Orange default comes back do you have any idea how to fix this error? thank you

If you factory default the system it will go back to its original settings. The current zones will be erased and you'll have to re-do them, as well as the rest of the settings and programming. At securedsurrouding.com I go over programming in the course. Thanks, Kyle.

It only makes the “error” long beep sound after I have entered 6 digits, like *8 and then 123456 - is that normal? Or does it mean my installer code is something 6 digits long?

so just to clarify, if you don't know the master code and/or the installer code, and the installers locked the system (I hear the clicks after power off/power on), i'm pretty much out of luck then since the company who installed it are no longer in business? also, if my system is in alarm mode, I have no way of getting it out of alarm mode and I can't factory reset it since I don't know the installer code, correct? I've got the 1616 and a pk5501 keypad. thanks in advance
@SecuredSurrounding5 жыл бұрын
Unfortunately, your're probably out of luck. Unless you can get a hold of the installer or previous owner. You will likely have to just swap out the main panel. You could re-use all your other devices though. Theres more info on this process at Secured Surrounding. Good luck, Kyle

My system is a bit older in the DSC PC 1550. Secured Surrounding, I would welcome your comments too. I have tried to factory reset by jumping the PGM1 to zone 1 as well with no luck.
@xenserve3 жыл бұрын
@@michaelmoore3500 I never "solved" it as the company who did the initial install is defunct, and the previous owners are unavailable, so the installer code is lost. I tried jumping too, but not knowing the installer code has locked the system completely. As suggested by Secured Surrounding, replacing the main PCB and then rebuild/reprogram the system from scratch myself and optionally reusing the existing devices or replacing/adding as desired, or go with a company who will install their solution are the options.

If there were clicks, then it means you can't factory default the system and it has been dealer locked out. You need a dealer to unlock it, they have a special interface to do that with apparently.

your video was good. unfortunately I found the DSC panels suck, not user friendly, horrible to program, keypad displays go bad, over priced.

@@mrficxit1785 Hey there. I think it all depends on how comfortable you are with these keypads for whether you want to spend more for the full message KP's. If you take a look at some of the videos on this channel, like the medical monitoring one. I go through some programming so that you can get more of an idea of how they are to deal with. If you think you may want to add wireless zones to the system down the line, you may want to splurge for the RFK. Thanks, Kyle.
