Just bought a house (yay!) and it has what looks like an Optima panel
(not had a real good look at it yet) with remote keypad.

The house was a respossession, so no info at all is available, so I
don't have a code for the alarm etc.

Is there a way to reset most alarms within the panel itself, i.e. by
putting a link across a couple of terminals ? (sure, it might ring
like a biatch for a while, but if I could reset / recode the
bugger...)
