I have moved into a house with the above alarm panel. A search of the net says Modern Alarms no longer exist. Also this may be known as a scantronics 9800 panel???

I have the code for it but want to change it. Does anyone know how, or does anyone have a user guide for it? I also want to test the different circuits so I can see what areas I'm setting.

Cheers

Mark

change codes

enter code
shows - -
press 4
shows oc (old code)
enter old (existing) code
shows nc (new code)
enter a new code*

*it can not start with a zero, you only get one chance, so do it slowly

you cant check what is on what because

a) you need the engineers code
b) you would not undestand what it is telling you

suggestion, set it and operate all devices one by one to see when it goes off.

clue: A sets everything, so you only have to worry about b and c

dissclaimer: they are easy to get wrong / same number twice, its not my fault if it goes wrong

if you do get it wrong, dont try the code more than 3 times,it will go off and as you have a wrong code you cant sop it.

it can have 4 codes in total. its brother the 98+ can have 8 codes
