The Texecom Elite range is a highly configurable alarm system. Whilst many settings can be configured via the alarm keypad connected to the alarm control panel via an Engineer setup cable the use of Texecom's Wintex application is more convenient and can save in configuration time.
The Texecom alarm has a concept of an upload/download UDL Passcode. This passcode is not associated with either Engineer, Master nor any alarm user password once set by the installer.
