The problem I put to FixYa was: I inadvertently changed the installer code for the Visonic Powermax Plus alarm system to 0000. This resulted in me being locked out as per the note below figure 4.1c page 8 in the Installers Guide DE5467IP. My question was: Is there any way to recover from this situation to reinstate the previous installer code or to reset it to the factory 9999? As an answer I received from FixYa a generalised answer for resetting alarm systems that is not addressing my problem or helping me in any way. Is FixYa for real or not?
Unless the installer code is stored in a battery backed memory (not likely) you don't have much of a chance to recover this OTHER than to call the factory for help. You MAY have to send the unit in as they probably have a piece of equipment that can backdoor reset it.
