Paragon Alarm - changing user codes

rolion

Hello,

Having a Paragon alarm,trying to change the user code.
Following the manual,pressing button by button as per instructions,but no joy ! Is going fine up to a point where the manual says that i shall hear two bleeps...but no beeps coming !!
So,press master code,then shift+4,then master code and ...two bleep but no bleeps at all (good or bad) !?

Also,is there any point in running a health check on the system OR buy another one / upgrade the wiring or the central unit !?
Alarm there since purchased the house,long time ago...

Any help,appreciated !

Might not be the same manual I have but it says up arrow 5 is the master not , not 4. Does it just say Paragon alarm?

CHANGING USER CODE
Enter up arrow 5 then User code - 3 Bleeps
then New user code - 3 Bleeps
then New user code again - 3 Bleeps
The ‘day’ led will flash when this function is entered and an acknowledge tone will be sounded after each code has been entered. If an incorrect key is entered an error tone will be given and the function ended.

Here is a link to the makers site. There is another manual off this system so maybe that might help. I am wondering if your installer has you set up so you can change the code. I would give them a ring and they might talk you through doing this over the phone.
