    How to change an Access Code:
    1. Open the cover of the panel.
    2. The panel voice prompts you to Use numbered keys to enter ID. Enter your master access code using the numbered keys.
    3. The panel voice prompts you to Please select from START MENU. Press the Add button on the START MENU.
    4. The panel voice prompts you to Select from MAIN MENU. Press the Access Code button on the MAIN MENU.
    5. The panel voice responds with Master Code, press again for next access code, DONE to select or press CANCEL to quit. Press the access code button again to hear the next access code. When you hear the access code you wish to change press the DONE Button.
    6. Enter 3-6 new numbers using the numbered keys. (Access Code length is programmed by the installer.)
    7. Close the panel cover.
    How to Delete an Access Code:
    1. Open the cover of the panel.
    2. The panel voice prompts you to Use numbered keys to enter ID. Enter your master access code using the numbered keys.
    3. The panel voice prompts you to Please select from START MENU. Press the Delete button on the START MENU.
    4. The panel voice prompts you to Select from MAIN MENU. Press the Access Code button on the MAIN MENU.
    5. The panel voice responds with Access Code 1, press again for next access code, DONE to select or press CANCEL to quit. Press the access code button again to hear the next access code. When you hear the access code you wish to delete, press the DONE Button. The panel voice responds with Access Code X deleted.
    6. Close the panel cover.

    You can not delete the code, you will need to write over it to change it ;)

    Drop the lid, enter your user code. Press the access code till it says master code, then done. Enter new code, then done again. It is very easy to do but if you want me to talk you through doing this send me a P.M. more than happy to help if you have any problems.

    Hi, I have done above but as soon as I enter the last number it says invalid. Would that mean I dont actually know the master code? If that is the case - How come when I deleted all the access codes on the system and enter a new one - the original one I am trying to get rid of still works?

    Sorry cruachan7. You will need to press add first.
    Drop the lid, enter your user code. Press add, press the access code till it says master code, then done. Enter new code, then done again.
