Thank you so much Tom Scott. you have saved me hours of mindless waiting in for the council to come to show me how to change my pin. I will just make it a bit more user friendly though:

Press "prog" button and release, enter the old pin number (4 digit), press "8" button, enter a new 4 digit code then press "reset" and voila it is changed!!!

The answer is still useful thanks. After months of having a duff button, I have finally changed the number. Easy when you know how!

Accenta 8 Mini - can you please advise how I can completely reset the system in order I can stat from scratch- At present no "zones" are lite although it accepts my password it does not "bleep" on entry or exit. My tenant messed up the configuration and now I find the instruction manual appears to have gone walkies.

I have to admit when it was first installed I could not follow the Instruction Manual anyway so if anyone can reply with a step-by-step I would be most grateful.

Your urgent help is much appreciate

to archie, change the viper on the window. when you install the new one, start the sensitivity at the lowest, banging the window to activate the led. vipers are reknown to give intermittant faults. Hope this is of some help. If not, please email me and i can talk you through it.

Dear Sir, I have a alarm fault coming on in zone 5 which is at a window. The sensor I am led to belive is sensitive to movement, ie. the window being opened or some kind of vibration. At the moment it seems to be u/s as it always reverts to red which I would assume tobe the alarm mode. I have tried to adjust the sensitivity but it has no effect whatsover. Do you think the window sensor is faulty and requires replacement ?

Sensor beeps in one room only. How do I fix please ?

To change code press "prog" all indicators show. Then enter your current code. Day and Tamper indicators show. Press 8. Zone 1,2,3,and 4 indicators show. Enter your new code, 4 digits.

The system will beep twice and Day and Tamper indicators show. The new code is now in the memory.

Press reset to to return to Day mode.
