Vista 20P WILL NOT ARM

I have a Vista 20P with a 6160V keypad and the Alula Bat connect. A few hours after I installed the Alula and everything tested perfect with my alarm monitoring service, I later tried to arm for the evening and nothing happened?
The keybuttons beep as usual but the system does nothing when I enter my four digit code and press away or stay. It is almost like the system is ignoring my four digit code

Has that code worked before for arming ?

I believe you cannot use the programming or master code for arming purposes.

Pete, thanks but I was using my unique four digit code that has worked flawlessly for the past 2 months.

If you have been using the same code that gets into programming for routine arm/disarm; it will work _as_long_as_no_other_method_ is used to arm the system.

I found the problem, when setting up Alula - it asked for a pin, little did I know that Alula would change my Vista pin.
