Caddx nx8

I purchased a house that has a Caddx nx8 with Caddx 124a keypads. By dumb luck I figured out a code to disarm but don't have the master code. I'm able to put it in "program mode" but don't know how to get or reset the master. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Ok, if you can get into programming, there's a way to set the installer code as a master code so you can set a new master code:
*8 [installer code]
0# (go to system programming)
43#
press 4 to turn ON option 4. This makes the installer code work as a master code.
press * * to save the changes and exit the section
press the EXIT button to get out of programming

Set new master code:
*5 [installer code]
01 xxxx (xxxx being the new master code)
# to exit code programming

Test the new code, if it works, go back into programming and repeat the steps in section 43 to put the installer code back to normal (better to keep that as an "ace in the hole")
