How to Set Time on an ADT Home Alarm

Since your ADT Home Alarm System is a security system, you must have the master code or the installer code to make any adjustments, including setting the time. If you do not have a security code or installer code, you will have to contact your dealer. To change the time, your system must be disarmed and have no faults present. Time setting is done at the master keypad.

Instructions

  1. Setting the Time

      Enter the four-digit master code or installer code + FUNCTION + 63. The display will show the currently set hour and indicate AM or PM.

    • 2

      On the keypad, enter two digits for the hour, using "0" for the first digit when appropriate. The display will show your entry.

      Press the asterisk [ * ] to accept the setting and continue, or press the pound sign [ # ] to reset the hour.
