If you can’t seem to locate this transformer you could also carefully remove the wire from Terminal 1 on a Vista panel.

Unplug the 16.5VAC transformer from the 120VAC unswitched wall outlet.

All configuration/programming is stored on nonvolatile memory so there is no danger of losing anything when power is lost. The system’s backup battery is inside this enclosure and can easily be disconnected which will be needed to reset the Installer Code. The transformer will be close to this panel enclosure and usually screwed to the outlet cover plate so no one unplugs the transformer accidentally disabling the alarm. Alarm panels are low-voltage devices and use plug-in transformers rather than direct 120VAC wiring. If you have a touchscreen style keypad such as the 6280 or Tuxedo this backdoor method will unfortunately not work.įor hardwired security systems there will be a metal enclosure located somewhere out of sight such as in the basement, closet, garage, but always in a protected space.

MASTER REBOOT VISTA CODE

The process for resetting the Installer Code for Honeywell Vista panels is fairly easy when there is a standard 6150 or 6160 style keypad in place which is typical. Unfortunately if they won’t release this code to you the panel can NOT be monitored by any other dealer. If you don’t know the current Installer Code your only option is to get the code from the last dealer. If you own a Honeywell Lyric Controller there is no way to reset the Installer Code without already knowing the current Installer Code.

If you have an ADT SafeWatch Pro which is a rebranded Honeywell Vista control the default Installer Code is 6321. You can always try the default Installer Code first but it would be unusual for a security dealer to not change the code as part of their installation procedure. The default Installer Code for all Honeywell/Ademco alarm panels (hardwired and wireless) is 4112. ADT for years has used Honeywell/Ademco systems so don’t be fooled by the ADT label on the keypad. If your keypad says Ademco its now Honeywell (acquired in 2000). The good news with Honeywell alarm systems is there is a “back door” into Program Mode to reset the Installer Code and Master Code. This happens frequently because they assume their former alarm company will set the new owners up with alarm monitoring and change all of the existing security system passcodes. This fee could be $100 even if they can reset the code remotely.įor those just moving into a home with an existing alarm system It’s very possible the previous owner did not leave the Master Code which allows you to change user passcodes. Companies such as ADT, Brinks, ProtectionOne many times use the same Installer Code on all installations making it easier for their service technicians but unfortunately will charge a fee to reset the Installer Code back to the manufacturer default. SafeHomeCentral however provides all documentation and system codes to our customers so they can easily add devices themselves (DIY) or change alarm monitoring providers with minimal hassle. Dealers do this frankly to make it as difficult as possible for customers to change to a lower priced monitoring company. The installing alarm company knows this special installation code required to make system changes but may not have shared it despite their customer owning the system. Its common an alarm system owner does not know the Installer Code which allows them into Program Mode of their control panel.
