In this video, Michael from Alarm Grid shows you how to reset your hardwired security system. Just like with resetting a wireless system, there are two (2) types of resets that may be performed on a hardwired security system. For one, you can perform a power cycle reset, also known as a system reboot. This will involve powering off the system and then powering it back on. You may also perform a factory reset, or a factory default, for the system. This will restore all settings and configurations for the system back to their default setting. You cannot undo a factory reset, so make absolutely sure you want to perform one.

A power cycle reset is relatively basic, and you may perform one when making hardware changes, or as a simple troubleshooting step. The big thing to keep in mind with a wired alarm system is that there usually isn't a menu option for performing a system reboot, or as power cycle reset. Instead, you must perform the system reboot manually. You can do this by first powering down the system. You will need to remove AC power by unplugging the transformer or turning off power at the circuit breaker, and you will also need to remove battery power by disconnecting one of the battery terminals. Once you observe that the system has fully powered down, you can make any necessary hardware changes. Then you can restore system power by connecting AC power first, and then battery power second.

As for a factory reset, there will usually be some sort of command you can make within system programming to perform the factory reset. For example, on a Honeywell VISTA P-Series System, the command is *97, and you should also perform a *96 command to clear the panel's account and CSID. It is very important to note that those *97 and *96 commands are only for a VISTA P-Series System. Do not use those commands on a VISTA TURBO Series System, as they follow a different process.
