Why? Nothing wrong with spending a few minutes keypad programming a
panel, Although Napco isn't easy it certainly isn't that hard.

I just find it ironic that with the one brand you claim to know you
either are unwilling or can't do something so commonplace that 99% of
installers know how to do. His location makes it very doubtful that
you or Rojas will be able to get the guys panel online so he must now
spend more money and time buying the MINI adapter, getting the
software, learning the software then downloading his panel for the one
small change he's wanting to make. I'd say I've helped him a lot more
than you on this one

Too bad he doesn't have DSC, he'd be done in less than a minute
downloading or keypad programming
