We know a lot about Brinks.

That's them.

That's patently false.  There's no such thing as a "Brinks programmer"
either.  It's a DTI, Scantronic or Acron unit.  Brinks buys them and
slaps their labels on them.  There are plenty of "Brinks labeled" units
out there "in private hands" (most can be purchased off eBay).  It would
be far less frustrating for a homeowner bent on cancelling their PSA to
replace the equipment with something a little more "generic".  I've been
given to understand that certain programming sections (of the Brinks
badged) Honeywell and Scantronic panels can't be altered.
