Re: ? PC1550 V4.0

When you default, the installers code goes back as well to 1500 or 1550,
unless it's locked, then everything except the installer code goes back to
factory, and you're still locked out..

Does the reset thing reset the progammers code to default or will I still
need to have the installer code to get into programming?

I have a feeling it's locked and I'm wasting my time...but a takeover is
bucks in me pocket..with only little effort (better than crawling attics).
