Ranger American Control Panel

Ranger American Control Panel
I have two problems....
1. I have a Ranger American alarm control panel that I cannot find a model number for, nor do I have any instructions(lost them), The unit is about 12-14 years old.
2. I do not remember my security code and would like to reset it but don't know how to. Can anyone help me in this matter?
Is there a universal code that I can enter to delete any previous codes and then reset the code with a new one?
Thanks

Most Ranger American panels are DSC 1550 or 1555. My guess is 1550, being that old. In that case, there is a way to reset it. But you will need the manual to reprogram it. See below. The manual also explains how to default the panel and gives you the default installer code, but it's probably been changed, so you will have to "hardware" default the panel - easy enough.
Good luck!

If the system was never configured beyond the basics, the master code is probably still 1234.
The default _installer_ code is 5555, but that's likely been changed, and I don't know RA's installer code.
For a user manual simply go to www.dsc.com.
