Angry Cant get into Zone Programming Mode

Thx in advance for the help... I cant figure this out and don't want to reset the entire panel. All I need to do it program one new zone, Zone 5 to add a door sensor.

I can use both Installer code and also the power-up backdoor to get into programming mode - I see "20" on the 6160 keypad

But, after that I cant get into Zone Programming (*56)... when I try *56 I get...

"01"
... from here I've tried entering 1 or * or anything; always the same outcome...

screen shows 01 until I push a * or # ... if I push a number, the number appears on the keypad screen

Sometimes then screen blanks when I push * or #

when I push * repeatedly, it will cycle though some numbers on the display... 10, blank, 01, 02, 04, 0E

From the description, you don't have a 6160 keypad; you have a fixed language model, probably a 6150; which cannot access menu mode programming (like zone programming).

Yup, you are correct. I thought it was a 6160, it is not. I have one being shipped to me on Monday. Thx
