networx nx6

[Murse1966]

I am trying to override the alarm , since I moved in and don't know previous code . Anyone out there able to help ? I was able to do something then I set off the alarm , things went crazy . I just want to start over but need help. It seems to be permanently armed now , and I have had to just unplug it until I get help. I'd hate to pay someone to come out for a service call when i'm sure it's just as simple a pressing a few buttons.

I would start by trying to load the Factory Defaults on page 12 of this installation manual, and hunt around for the default codes on other pages.

By some quirk of fate, I never had occasion to work with any of the Networx panels, but this is a not-uncommon problem with most professional-grade alarm panels: There is a setting in panel programming that allows the User to arm the system without using the code (Quick-Arm feature)---which occasionally leads to your situation. This is exactly why I don't enable that option unless the buyer insists on it. It's not like entering a 4-digit code is a big drain on one's time.

Since I'm not an expert in this particular panel, I'm going to refer you to this site:

By coincidence, someone posted with nearly the same problem about 3 weeks ago, only with a different Networx model, a NX-8V2, but what's on that thread probably applies to your panel---but post there and ask one of the expert techs to be sure.
