Challenger10 Installation and Quick Programming Manual 25
To clear the panel’s memory without Install menu access:
1. Remove power to the Challenger panel.
2. Fit test link 1 (Figure 5 on page 11, item 22) and repower the system. L1 (item
23) illuminates for about 20 seconds, flashes quickly for about 20 seconds to
indicate reset mode, and then flashes slowly to indicate normal mode.
Note: The panel can only be defaulted in the 20-second interval when L1 is
flashing quickly (in reset mode). The panel returns to normal mode
automatically to help protect against accidental reset.
3. Remove test link 1 when L1 is flashing quickly to default the panel.

4. Disarm the system and access the Install menu again, as described above.
