HKC SecureWatch - Change Alarm Code

Hi All,

I have a HKC SecureWatch alarm system and am looking to change the main code used for disarming the system.

Could anybody help?

I have the default engineer and user code from the manual. Chances are though the installer would have changed the engineer code.

Thanks in advance.

If the user management is not set up or you do not have the engineer code you would need to default the panel and set it back up again.
Is the user management set up, by this when you put in your code does it bring you into a separate menu or set the alarm?

Hi altor,

Thanks for coming back to me.

Hi donal2000,

The manager menu is not set up. You would need to default the system if you don't have an engineer code. If you do decide to do this. On the keypad enter 0#3, this is a user walk test that enables you to test the zones. Go around and test each sensor to determine the zone name and write then down. It saves a lot of hassle if the system is not engineer locked and does default.
You will get all the help you need here to set it back up.

I have this system too. I would like to set the alarm for downstairs before I go to bed each night. Full set when leaving the house is 0#4 but does anybody know what the code is to partial set for all of downstairs?

Thanks.

0#7 is part set A
0#8 is part set B
It may be that these have been set up with just a PiR off. You would need engineer access to reconfigure the zones you want off in each setting.
