Have you considered that it's already out there, and that the real fix
would be to change it after installation?

An Accenta panel is cheap and pretty common, so Bill Sykes can find
this out, in a worst case, simply by buying a new panel.

Buying a new panel would only give you the factory default setting. Alarm
installers always change the factory default setting so that the customer
cannot make changes themselves. Most alarm companies change the factory
defalt number to a number that is common to their firm.

ADT for example always use the same engineers code on all their alarms. As I
know the code I can modify their alarms.

could "mystery customer" (assuming it exists) not just fit the new
panel ? or are there some other overheads that are best avoided?
