What are the steps to default a DS7090 or DS7090i?
Solution
To set panel back to factory default perform the following:
Caution - This will erase all programming except for the phone numbers. What may prevent the panel from being set to factory default is a security feature called anti-takeover. If this is enabled the panel will not be able to be set back to factory default
Enter into program mode by the installer code # 0 ( 98765 # 0 ) is the default code, or short the little silver dots next to the last zone on the panel for 4 seconds with a jumper wire.
** Enter 839#, the beeper should sound for steady.
Short the same 2 pins, and the panel should be back to factory default.
** When the step is followed and a 3-beep error tone is generated while after 839# is entered. This panel is lock and will need to be reset at Bosch Security System for a fee. Contact our repair department a 800-289-0096 Ex 4220 M - F 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. EST

Issue
How can a REX sensor such as the DS150i or DS160 be used to shunt an armed point?
Solution
The REX sensor can be used to shunt a normally closed contact by connecting the REX relay contacts that will provide closure when motion is detected in parallel with the door point to be shunted. When these contacts close, a short will be placed across the door point. The panel will see the door as closed for the duration of the REX relay time.
Note: The REX relay Common to Normally Open and Common to Normally Closed contacts will reverse when changing from Fail Safe to Fail Secure mode. See NOTES for further clarification.
Notes
DS150i:
In Fail Safe mode, use the Yellow and Violet wires on the first relay or the Gray and Green wires on the second relay.
In Fail Secure mode, use the Yellow and Blue wires on the first relay or the Gray and Orange wires on the e second relay.
DS160:
In Fail Safe mode, use the relay contacts designated Normally Open to Common.
In Fail Secure mode, use the relay contacts designated Normally Closed to Common.
