PeterJames Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 The contract does not mention anything at all about this, trust me i know QFA ???? LOL = Laugh out Loud QFA = Quoted For Agreement LOL
norman Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 the engineer code can be circumnavigated easily on most panels, locking removes that. (on most) Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.
Go103 Posted February 18, 2011 Author Posted February 18, 2011 the engineer code can be circumnavigated easily on most panels, locking removes that. (on most) But only by alarm engineers who should know better than messin, In the job for over 20 years and have never locked a code unless customer not paying, but when sorted unlocked. But hey, what do i know
A-G Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 The contract does not mention anything at all about this, trust me i know What does "trust me I know" mean? Sounds like there's more to this than you've divulged thus far . . . PM me for access to the SSAIB members discussion area.

alterEGO Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 We lock codes to stop a customer under warranty from finding a way to reset an engineer tamper reset without a visit, to see what they have been doing/messing with. Customers could find a out how to reset an engineer code on most panels off the net, Premiers and old gardtecs are way to easy to reset IMO.
A-G Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Old post tells all, nothing to hide but everything to gain shall we say It's difficult to give exact answers if you're being vague with the info ....... but your choice . . . PM me for access to the SSAIB members discussion area.
breff Posted February 19, 2011 Posted February 19, 2011 I still think locking codes is wrong, but with big sites with multiple areas and complex programming that may have taken me hours to work out, why should I let someone else benefit from my hard work, let them work it out for themselves The opinions I express are mine and are usually correct! (Except when I'm wrong)(which I'm not)
