Avanti Xp Lcd Reboot

I have an Avanti XP with the LCD panel. It's been working fine for years

 

My problem is that the LCD control panel seems to have crashed, it shows a message but none of the keys do anything. What I need to do is reboot it, just like a Ctrl-Alt-Del on a PC. Is there a key sequence that does this or is my only option to turn off the power to the main control box, open it and remove the backup battery for a few seconds? Obviously the alarm will be set off by this process

A full power cycle is the first stage of a 'reboot', but this brings safety issues with mains electricity as I'm sure you're aware.

 

It's worth a try but if you don't know the engineer code (if the panel doesn't allow user reset on tamper) could land you in

a worse position.

 

These panels are OK, but MDT / Avanti went bust many years ago now and spare parts / support are gone.

So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands

They are known to do that, especially if it's not had a battery in a while.

It would probably be a good idea to get someone to service it.

There is no magic key sequence to "reboot" the alarm.
