Nope. The panel will have to be completely defaulted, unless you can get the previous company to remove their lock code.

Thanks Jim, we put a call in to the previous company, but I doubt it will do any good. Can you tell me how to default the panel?
The problem with defaulting the panel, is that it makes it useless afterwards. The keypad will display CALL FOR SERVICE. You need special software to load a fresh program to the SRAM chip. If you send me the panel, I can do it in a few minutes.

So your saying its not possible to default the panel, and download the programming from a 5200 programmer? If thats the case I may need to send it too you.

Yes that is true. However, a dead panel cannot be resurrected with a
5200 prgrammer without the factory code. I instead load the SRAM directly since the factory will not share their way of doing it.Radionics uses 1980's technology...does CPM come to mind?

I hate Radix panels. Some say that's the only way to build a 'big' system but that's not true.
CPM was a little before my time, but I did write programs using "debug" in machine language in DOS 5 for school projects.
Unless writing BASIC programs on my old Vic-20 counts?
.
Almost all manufacturers still use 80's technology unfortunately, that
7412 is a good panel tho
I liked the 80"s

There were 80's?
Beat the 70's for sure
