RESETTING THE ASCENT UNIT
The Ascent X1 has two special reset types: Master Reset and Unit Reset. Choose the procedure that you want to use
carefully.
Master Reset
• Should be used if the Master Code is lost or forgotten. The procedure will reset the Master Code to the 1 2 5 1.
• Should be used if the unit is in the Latch or Sleep Mode and the Latch or Sleep code is lost or forgotten.
• When a Master Reset is performed, Access Codes and Functions Codes are retained in memory and the unit
does not require complete reprogramming.
Unit Reset
• Should only be used if the Ascent X1 is to be completely reset back to factory default settings.
• ALL ACCESS and FUNCTION CODES ARE LOST during a Unit Reset.
• The Master code is reset to 1 2 5 1 following a Unit Reset.
