Concord 4 Installer Code Reset
Hi Mike,Do you want to do a 'factory default' on the NX-8 panel? If that is whatyou want to do, click the following link for the manual.
Go to page 8 andfollow the instructions for 'Loading Factory Defaults' in the center of thepage.NOTE: Doing this will clear the program, requiring you to program the entiresystem from scratch. Please be absolutely certain this is what you want todo before doing so.If all you want is to change the Download Access Code, that is stored inLocation 20.
Follow the instructions for changing that value alone.Another significant code is the 'Go To Program' code, found in location 42.It's a 4- or 6-digit code. Now Mark- you just can't be doing this in the NG. You are SUPPOSED to sendBass an e-mail with the real instructions so that he can post a 'correction'and try to appear brilliant instead of as nothing more than a book clerk.Help your buddy out Mark- don't let the rest of the world know what many ofus already do.Just some friendly advice-Peace (piss?

Were they one of those companies that finally got a good product and then sold out? (I hated the old Ranger panels.) I really liked the expansion cabinets that powered all their own devices so expanding the system didn't overload it. It made putting multiple buildings on a single system dead easy.I liked it as well with the exception of wireless sensor programming which appeared to be grafted on when ITI purchased themI also liked the old Ranger panels, did quite a few 8600 and 8980'ssamc.@gmail.com05.01.19 14:52. I have the same problem trying to get NX-8V2 program code back to default. I purchased a home which has a NX-8V2 security system installed. The installer is no longer in business and the Program Code has been changed from the default.
I purchased an NX-588E and downloaded DL900 from Interlogix thinking I could re-load the firmware and get the codes back to default. Using an old laptop running Windows XP with SP3 I was able to install and run the programs without error.
However when I try to connect to the alarm panel I get the error: 'Error Reading data from Module number 0.83'. I'm not at all familiar with alarm systems. Can anyone give me any ideas?ABLE105.01.19 15:04.

This is probably true but. You might want to instead do as ABLE1says and swap out the board, much less hassleI'm pretty sure NX-588E is the direct link module. No modem required. Alsothe NX series of panels from Caddx (and I am pretty sure their neweroverlord) download remotely just fie with many more readily available andslightly more modern modems.
I used a US Robotics Sportster to downloadthem remotely.The biggest headache you get when you do a board swap is finding any and allmodules, keypads, and accessories that were on the system, but may not havebeen at the main panel. I liked the NX8E myself because I could put a selfcontained and self powered expansion module in another building and wireeverything up almost like it was its own alarm panel, and then just run 4wires (heavier gage) back to the main panel in the main building. No matterhow much you ran off the expansion modules it only put a single keypad loadon the main panel because it had its own power supply. Even for sirens.Used to do much the same thing with the old FBII XL4 except that theexpansion modules for it still required panel power as did all theaccessories.Hogan13.01.19 20:49. For alarm installers: The direct connect module just hooks up to the board keypad wiring and can connect to the laptop thru a usb port. It has the ability to store 4 separate panel configurations to quickly upload to a panel onsite, if you require that.It is best used for direct access to a locked board.
With it, you do not need to know what any master, installer, or download access code is. It makes Networx/Caddx panels take-over-able very quickly. You just need to know how to use it. This way, you save programming the board from scratch; just make sure you still check every location though.It is a little slower than getting into a Honeywell panel, but the few minutes is well worth it.For thrifty homeowners: And yesss, home owners should buy a new board. I just hope that you understand that programming a msinboard is not for novices. You do want your family safe from burglars and fires, right? There are a lot of things to know about programming that only comes with experience.
But then again, you are obviously not getting monitoring. Therefore, you don't know what you are missing. The bottom line is that you probably just want to save money.Hoganmleuck13.01.19 21:21.

Lets hear it from everyone! Buy another board!
Buy another board! Buy another board! Jim, I said it days ago.
This new guy either did one of three things. Did as I said and bought a new board Just never came back to find his answer. Is still looking for a better answer. Jim, you are right trying to crack a 8 digit code would be nuts.
Better off playing the lottery. You would find out much quicker that you lost. LesIt's a 6-digit code and I doubt the original installers used more than 4mleuck13.01.19 21:22.

Squirrel, esq.There was a guy years ago who posted here about interfacing a keypad board to something else and fool the panel into getting into programmingABLE114.01.19 5:05. Not talking about the Installer Code. The Download Access Code is defaulted at 84800000. By my count that is a 8-digit code and 84 million+ possible variations.LesThere is nothing to figure out in regards to the access code or the installer code, to access any locked Networx/Caddx board. You can get into the programming without knowing the 84+ million variations in less than a minute.
Those boards are not really locked out, thanks to the direct connect module.HoganABLE116.01.19 11:07. When I connect to my NX panels with my laptop/NX588(aka direct connect module) and I have changed the Access Code from myoffice machine, I get a notice error of wrong access code and adisconnect.That is when I remembered that I needed to update the Access Code in mylaptop to match the panel in order to connect and transfer data.I never saw anything that indicated:'Click here to ignore the Access Code'Not that I ever had need to look for an alternative, but, never saw anything like that. My opinion has and is if the codes don't match youdon't get in.LesHogan16.01.19 21:34. Well Les, no, there isn't anything in the programming that lets you ignore the access code. But, I did mention this, 'You just need to know how to use it.' Now that I have your interest peaked, I will describe what I mean using a picture example. Anyone who is familiar with the device, will figure out what I mean without my blatantly letting unscrupulous characters into the knowledge of it.So first, let's pretend that you have a round building with apartments all along the outer edges of the building.
In the center you have a round hall/room where all the apartment doors can be accessed, but you only have one door in the round hall. That room revolves, and can give you access to any apartment. So, if you need to get into Apt A, you revolve to the door of apartment A.
To get into Apt A, you do need the 'Key'. You then insert the right key for apt A, and then you get into apt A. You can then do whatever you want to do in apt A.The people who made the round building with the center access room, thought that they were very smart and that there would never be a security breach. But fortunately, they were not. You see, once the center door to access a specific apartment was unlocked, the center access door stays unlocked. All one has to do is rotate the center room, and you can get into any other apartment. The other individual apartment doors are never locked once the center room door is unlocked for any individual apartment.I would like to claim that I figured it out all by myself, but that would not be true.
I was able a certain while ago to beg a 'knowledgeable person' to help me out with an accidentally locked board. His generosity greatly helped me to understand all of the security holes in most panels.For example, 'Honeydew' melons are the easiest to 'crack'. The door is the chip 'bowl'. Just make sure that the chips are fresh and crispy new, in the bowl. And all that your heart desires will be easily available. Again, the doors are always open and unlocked.
Don't even bother to break out the old Laptop.Also, those infamous 'Mona T Ronics' that I have heard about in this forum, that despicably cause devastating addictions to unsuspecting buyers, are also just as easily thwarted. The desired 'secretive' addiction intended by its masters to prevent the communication to the 911 operators, are again defeated by having fresh, wholesome chips in the bowl.
After you are all done, just throw the old chips back into the bowl.Hope this helps you. HoganABLE117.01.19 6:19. When I was a kid and had no job I wanted buy a $97 dollar thingie at thestore but didn't have the $97 dollars since I had no job.So I went to myMother and said Mom I want to buy this $97 dollar thingie can you helpme out??
She said sure son, here is $50. I said thanks Mom.
So then Iwent to my Dad and said that Mom just gave me $50 to help me buy a $97dollar thingie, can you help me out?? He said sure son, here is $50.So now I have $100. So I go to the store and buy the $97 dollar thingiewhich had tax included. The store clerk gave me $3 dollars back. So Iwent home and said to my Mom, Mom I didn't need all $50 dollars so hereis a dollar back. She said, thank you son. I then when to my Dad andsaid I didn't need all $50 dollars so here is a dollar back.
He saidthank you son. So now my Mom and Dad gave me $49 dollars each.$49 + $49 = $98 I have a dollar in my hand which is now a total of $99dollars.
What happened to the other dollar??I have been looking for it for years. Can you help??Thanks for reading.Lesdoug17.01.19 9:13.
Well Doug, just before I read your reply, I was in a seriously bad mood. And then I read your reply, and I burst out laughing and have been laughing all day about it. So, thanks for your witty humor.
I really do appreciate it. It made my day.And Les, shame on you for lying to your mom and dad and withholding 50 cents from each of them. The dollar was always in your pocket no matter how you tell the story. It reminds me of the guy who asks for change for a $20 bill from a cashier, and keeps going back and forth changing his mind on how he wants it; and comes away with $25.So, did you try it out?
Let me know when you get a chance.Hogan18.01.19 12:32. May I jump into your group?I need help.I bought a Nx-6 panel off Ebay, (I paid $7 plus $3 shipping). Its locked and I should just toss it, BUT I am stubborn and stupid.I have NX590 and I can connect to the panel via TCP/IP then it errors on reading Module 0, wont let me read or write. It will let me look at the 'keypad status' so I think I am really connected?I downloaded NXprog, it opens saying 'finding COM error' saying it cannot find the file specified. Can i flash this board via the NX590?
Where would I find the encrypted file the NXprog is looking for?Any backdoors (or interior rooms) that I can default this panel?The rest of the story.I have a NX-6 board monitoring my home, I have doubled the zones. It randomly alarms on zone 10.Its NOT the wiring, resistors or contacts - have switched all (several times), and have concluded its a problem with the circuit board with always zone 10. Bought this replacement board to replace mine. Not sure if I am up to the task but would it be an option to switch the main 'chip' on the board where the locked info is stored? At this point both panels are useless to me but not so skilled on de-soldering.THANKS!J.J.ABLE126.01.19 15:47.

Because it's locked out.2nd, to be sure that there is or isn't anything wrong on your board, switch everything on zone 10 to a totally different physical board zone, and vice-versa. Because you did not eliminate a possible wiring issue in your calculations. Rats & mice just love wires to 'death' ('well, that's how I got rid of Egor-the-rat-from-Hell some years ago, but that's another story for another time!' )3rd, redo the programming for those zones EVEN if they are the same types.
Then, and only then, will you know that there is really something wrong with the specific board zone. Of course, zone 10 is using a different resistor for the upper zones. Make sure that your wiring is 'clean' so that no wires or resistors are touching anything else.Also, Networx mainboards should be powered down completely after any problems.
They just love to hang on to 'previous issues' in the buffer. It has been drilled into my sub-conscious after repeated calls to tech support for various reasons over the years, and they all say, 'Make sure to power down completely'. As soon as I start getting into any troubles with a Networx board, I slowly enter into a trance, with weird lights flashing all around, and I hear, P O W E R D O W N N O W! After the board and I regain consciousness, the troubles are all gone.And unsoldering 2 board chips, and re-soldering, no!
Just buy a new board; or buy yourself a new round apartment building and move the apts around. And don't forget, there is a $1 bill waiting for you, as per Doug earlier in his post, 'Its in apartment A under a bowl of fresh & crispy chips.' Tool.@gmail.com27.01.19 14:43. THANKS for the reply and suggestions.1.
The $7 board, the seller did know the history of the board - if the default codes were changed. I took a chance and lost.2. When zone 10 (originally was one window, top and bottom sash) first acted up I did in order:a. New contacts and magnets (I solder connections between wire and contact wire and heat shrink wrap)b. New resistors, (both the doubler resistors on that screw) and I solder the connection between wire and resistorc.
Rewired from the panel to the windowd. Switched the wires of this window to zone 12 and a different window to zone 10This is a weekend home and each time after leaving Zone 10 would trip. Random timing, usually after 1 day but not longer than 3 days3. What do you mean 're-do' the programing for this zone?
Default the board and re-write it?? Switch zone 10 to a door and make it an entry zone?YES, I made sure nothing is touching, I have heat shrink wrap on all connections at resistors4. I power down every time I make a change on the board when using DL900 ( I thought I read somewhere along the way that was necessary when making programing changes)??SO I am certain that it was at min. Powered down when the zone wires were swapped and I swapped the wiring of zone 10 and re-names the zones5. Yeah - swapping the chips is a stupid idea but I pre-warned that I am 'stubborn and stupid':)The last 6 weeks or so I 'bypass' zone 10 when arming and no false alarmsABLE127.01.19 15:21.
Ok so I just spent 3 hrs searching online cuz i cant figure it out. And got no where.so I found one thing and I got somewhere. So now I usually ditch it and say screw it. But my HS is not setup. Want it setup.
And starts with my alarm.so i found something so absurd that i thought i would try it.IF YOU JUST NEED TO RESET YOUR DEALER CODE BACK TO 4321 DO THE FOLLOWING. unplug alarm from outlet. locate eprom. remove eprom. wait 2 minutes. can verify as keypad will do nothing by trying options. plug prom back in.
plug power back inim not sure what happened. I didnt unplug the battery. Making me wonder if my battery backup is bad.
So will have to hit it with a meter later.but once i removed the eprom (lil 8 pin chip) and put it back in. The system went into a sensor test.

Took 15 minutes i believe.then i was able to use 8+4321+0+0 to get to system programmingNICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!since i couldnt find this anywhere on google thought id add it here. Did you ever verify if the battery was dead?Or did you pull the EPROM while it still was on battery backup?i unplugged AC powerUnplugged red lead off board from batterypulled eprom and waited 5 seconds.put eprom back in and hooked up battery first (got a alarm chime so battery is still good) then plugged AC back inwell all in all this is a way to get the dealer code returned and reset NOTHING. Not sure if that is good or bad to be on the internet. I dont care really as I live in an ok area and if someone breaks in while we are away. My most important possessions are with me.
