Reset the Lyric Alarm System's Installer Code

hi do liars Joe here from alarm grid and today we're going to talk about how to reset the installer code on a lyric security system now there's two methods you can use to reset the installer code one is going through the system screen getting into system programming and updating the code right there another way you can do it is that if your system is monitored your security company or your monitoring company they'll be able to update the code for you remotely and push it down your system as long as your system has a Wi-Fi or cellular connection that's active they should be able to access the system and push that programming change down to it for now let's take a look at how to access programming and update the code so if we take a look at our lyric read here the first thing you're going to want to do is click on security and then click on Tools now with this lyric system as is the case on many other Honeywell systems the installer code out of the box the default installer code is for one one two so at the Tools menu we're going to enter for one one two now if you find that the installer code isn't allowing you into the system if the lyric was previously monitored there's a chance that the monitoring company may have been able to feature on it called lyric lock know what lyric lock does is it prevents any end users from getting into programming on the lyric system it prevents any six devices that are programmed to the system from being removed from the system or even new devices being added to the system and also prevents the system from being taken over from another security company some dealers like to use this as it prevents anybody from altering what they have installed in a customer's home we don't ever enable lyric lock as we feel that end users should have full access to every programming menu on their system and if you do monitor with us you'll never have to worry about your panel getting lyric locked if you do have a panel that is lyric locked and you want to get it monitored by another alarm company the company that enabled the lyric lock on the panel they're actually going to have to disable it to allow it to be monitored by another company if they're fickle and they won't and disable the feature there's nothing you can really do and you'll just have to get a new system unfortunately but if we go back to the lyric you can see that we're in programming mode right here so we're going to click on program then right up at the top you see where it says install our code so if we click on that this displays the current installer code on the system the first thing you're going to want to do to update it is actually click the Clear button you see the existing code right here is the default if we click the Clear button it drops the code so now we're just going to go ahead and re-enter the default code for one one two click on done and that's it now it's updated one thing that may happen or you may notice is you may accidentally enter the master code when you're trying to access the installer code programming it's a common thing to do and it can be frustrating if you find that you're clicking on tools and you're getting this menu instead that as users events advanced keypad this is actually the master code programming and you won't be able to update the installer code through this menu the only way you can update the installer code is through the installer code programming the only way to get into that on the system is to do tools and enter the installer code that's programmed that's how to reset the installer code on a lyric security system if you did like the video feel free to subscribe if you want to be notified about future videos so whenever we do post them click the notification button below if you have any questions feel free to give us a call eight eight eight eight one eight seven seven two eight or send us an email to support at alarmgrid calm thanks for visiting and we hope you have a great day
