2GIG Edge: Resetting the Installer Code

In this video, Michael from Alarm Grid shows you how to reset the Installer Code on the 2GIG Edge Security System. The default Installer Code for a 2GIG Edge Alarm Panel is 1561. Alarm Grid recommends keeping this code at the 1561 default so that you can use it to get into programming without running into any issues. Even if you forget this code, you can always look it up later. But if you change the code, then you won't be able to look it up, and if you forget the changed code, then you won't be able to get into system programming.

There are two (2) main ways that you can change the Installer Code on the 2GIG Edge back to the 1561 default. In either case, you must know the system's current Installer Code. The first way to reset the code is to just manually change the code to 1561. Unlike other system codes, the Installer Code is not changed in the Users menu. Instead, you must access System Configuration. The very first programming field in System Configuration (Q101) is the option to change the Installer Code. You do not need to click save or anything after entering a new code at this menu. You can just back all the way out to the home screen, and the new code will be in effect.

Alternatively, you can also perform a factory default of the Users setting to get the Installer Code to revert to 1561. If you perform a default in this way, then any added user codes will be cleared from the system. Additionally, the system's Master Code will also be reset to its factory default of 1111. Make sure to change the Master Code to something else afterwards, as keeping the Master Code at its 1111 default is a major security risk.
