dsc 832 problems

Nov 30, 2007 3 Replies

Hi, I have a DSC 832 panel wich don't enter programming. Right after i type *8 it makes an error sound (long beep); typing the installer code is useless. First time i got this, i had already entered programming a couple of seconds ago and after a couple of weeks, the problem went away. Two days ago i was working on that system and today i got that error after *8 again. Also I am skeptical about doing a hardware reset, since I won't be able to reprogam the panel if the reset won't solve te problem.



I really need help on this.



A minor problem with DSC 832: some reporting codes willl reprogram once in a while (i.e. CID programmed code 1401 goes to 14C1). 2 different 832 panels have done that. Can you explain?


If your panel is armed, or has both partitions enabled, and either partition is armed, you will not be able to enter installer programming.

Yes the problem is you do not know what you are doing, the panel does not "reprogram" itself once in a while. Walk away and find someone who knows the system
