What a load of poppy-cock.  Alarm manufacturers want to maintain the
integrity of their products and therefor won't release the codes to the
general public.  There have been many examples where manufacturers actually
get together to provide additional features and benefits to the end user by
improving an existing product.

CADDX, DSC, Ademco, FBI, and a host of others manufacture their products for
installation by trained technicians.  A trained technician is *not* someone
you "teach in two hours over the phone".
