You need to gain access to engineers menu to disable line volts. Eng code will be locked by ADT. Other option is to default panel which I'm not sure can be posted on an open forum

Just need to wire-in an external bell box/siren and strobe now and potentially, a speech dialer - can't seem to get the SMS facility operative, but I'm guessing that might be due to incorrect/inadequate soft/firm ware.
:wink_smile:
Cuz an engineer with any savvy won't leave it as default.....oh I forgot its ADT we are talking about
There is no way of disabling it without the engineers code.
It is possible to reset these boards to default/factory settings.
I'm not putting those details here. Other forums have published the procedure before.
Then you will need the engineers manual to program it. The keypad menu isnt intuitive, so you'll be spending 3 or 4 hours to get it working again.
How about going on ebay and buying a new board? They are around £40 , you can then sell the old one on for £20 to someone who knows how to reset it.
You'll still need to program it, but you wont have the hassle of trying to default it.
Bangs head against wall!
You cannot get the engineers code without paying ADT for it.
That's why you have to reset/default the board to factory settings.
Oh I thought somebody would have it. Please could ask if u could pm me the default method that u know? It's a galaxy 2-12. Thanks
all G2 models

Please bear in mind if you want to use any alarm for insurance purposes you must have it serviced annually by a UKAS approved company.
And now, so will all burglars who read the above post
