Scantronic 9651 reset codes


We have come across a Scantronic 9651 but we do not know any of the codes both user and engineer are you able to tell us how to reset these codes?

The Scantronic 9651 engineer programming guide and installation manual is in our manuals section please click here to view Scantronic 9651

If you take a look on page 31 there is the full instructions for returning the panel to factory restore codes without affecting all other programming, I have copied the page here.

Restoring Default Access Codes Scantronic 9651 (first stage reset)

The default (original) access codes are:

4-digit 6-digit

Engineer Code 7890 567890

Access Code User 1 1234 123456

To restore all access codes to their default settings:

1. Remove mains power.

2. Open the case and disconnect the battery.

3. Identify the NVM Reset pins and Kick Start pins on the main PCB (refer

to Chapter 3).

4. Short circuit the NVM Reset pins with a wire link.

5. Short circuit the Kick Start pins with a wire link.

6. Reconnect the battery.

7. Remove the wire links from the NVM Reset pins and Kick Start pins.

The control unit will load the factory default access codes listed above.

8. Close the control unit.

9. Apply mains power.

10. Carry out an engineer reset (see next section).

Scantronic 9600


Is the Scantronic 9600 still available

This is a question we get asked a lot as they were installed in their masses in the late 80's early 90's.
A great simple panel that everyone loved with full text keypad and eight zones.
The 9600 superseded the old 9800 with LED keypad, and was followed by the 816 then the 9750 and now the 9651.
So in answer to the earlier question, no the 9600 is no longer available. You could keep an eye on e-bay as they do still come up second hand, mainly sold by alarm engineers who have just up graded a system.
The best bet is the Scantronic 9651, it is smaller and the remote keypad is a lot more compact and can be viewed here scantronic 9651. All of your existing PIR's and detection equipment will wire directly into this unit.
We have been installing scantronic alarm panels for nearly 20 years now feel free to contact me paultinkler@south-eastsecurity.co.uk with any questions as we are starting to put FAQ on our site and look forward to any questions. You can visit our site at http://www.south-eastsecurity.co.uk/.
