I have inheritted an alarm system with the purchase of a new house. It's a Watson Alarm system but it's basically a Scantronic 9751 system with 9930 control panel - rebadged.
The 9930 had a broken tamper switch so acquired a replacement.
I have the install and user manual but it seems the defualt engineer code has been changed, I presume by Watsons, so I cannot reset the damn system to use it.
I believe there may be a way to reset the system (shorting pins) but will this just reset the codes or the whole system back to factory defualt and thus require complete re-progarmming from scratch.
I have no paper work to tell me which PIR or door entry/exit sensor is on which Output (but could work this out by process of elimination).
well if he comes back on here he can "dell" its mandarine for f..k off he get no more help from gts

Some people can learn to play the piano from reading a book but most haven't got a clue,

1st stage reset, as gts has said read the book,
you only need to default user and engine code,
If you choose to refresh the nvm then you have to reprog the panel.
as gts has said choose wisely :)
Great panel by the way and whilst you in there you could also treat it to a new backup battery unless the battery is dated and less than 4years old.

one last thing,one set of pins will default the panel to the original factory codes,so you can set your own,the other pins will return the panel to factory settings,(you will need to reprogamme all the zones),choose wisely my friend READ THE BOOK

they should have put the zones on back page but all is not lost,when you put the codes back to factory defaults,1234,user,07890 engineer then put the panel on walk test get someone to walk through the house take note of what zone lights up,mark it down on back page,bobs your uncle,now just put in your new pin number,your sorted :-)follow the engineers instuctions to the letter
