We purchased a house that was a foreclosure, and the property has a GE Security Pro 1000 Home Security System installed. I've tried to access the panel using the factory default code of 1234, but no luck. Can anyone help me to change the master access code for this unit? HELP!! :)

It's a slightly modified version of the Simon 3: I don't know how much it's modified, but it' can't be much.

As long as the original installer didn't use the lockout:

Reset Memory to the Factory Defaults
Note:
If Option 8: Phone Lock is
on, options 04, 05, 06, 08,
09, 12, 13, 54 and Dealer
Code will not reset to their
defaults.
1. Open the panel cover and enter Utility Access code 1.
2. Unplug the transformer and disconnect the battery.
3. Simultaneously press and hold Cancel, Clock Set, and
Minutes +.
4. Restore power to the panel with either the battery or the transformer while pressing
these three buttons. The panel announces “Hello. System XX OK.” Release
the buttons.
5. Connect the remaining power source to the panel.
