You can use all keypad codes with the touchscreen controller and wireless keypad. Change the passcode is simple and can be done using any device.
There are three armed options in the Xfinity Home Secure X system: Armed or Disarmed. After arming the system, the button becomes red. The button will turn red and the green shield will light up. This signals that the system is ready for arming. To disarm your system, turn off its green shield and press on the disarm button. After you are done disarming it, you can arm the system again.
Xfinity Home Security Touchscreens are also able to be armed. You can use the touchscreen to change the Central Station passcode. In order to change the passcode, you must be logged in to the Xfinity Admin Tool. You'll need your Xfinity ID for this. Your password must be a minimum of eight characters long and it can include symbols, numbers, and personal email addresses.
Using the touchscreen, you can view the current Central Station passcode and its security pin. If you want, you can change the passcode to another one. Not only can you change your password but you can also enable DMZ, edit your WiFi name/password. You can also set up different WiFi addresses for different radio stations. You can also hide your WiFi name.
The Xfinity Admin Tool can be used to set up a new WiFi connection in your Xfinity security system. Your screen layout may vary depending on your Gateway model. The Admin Tool shows you a private Wi-Fi Network. The network name will be displayed when you select the SSID. But, you won't be able to choose the open security option.
You can change your network password and name with the Xfinity application. You can also edit the name of your Xfinity WiFi Hotspot. You can also disable or enable Xfinity's tile devices in your home. You can also track your Xfinity WiFi Hotspot and disable it. You can also change your DNS configuration.
The Xfinity Home App can be downloaded from Google Play and the App Store. This is the easiest way for you to manage your Xfinity service. It allows you to view and modify your network name, change secondary keypad codes or delete them, view your XfinityID and even see your security pin.

First, decide which type of security you need for your home. There are many security options, such as door locks and motion sensors, keypads, cameras or alarm systems. The most common types of security systems include:
-
Door locks - This is the best choice if you want to ensure that no one can enter your home without your consent. You have the option of either lever locks or deadbolts, which are much easier to operate than standard deadbolts.
-
Motion Sensors – This is another way to control who enters your home. It functions like a regular light switch, except that it switches on/off when someone is near it. Some motion sensors come with a camera attached so if they detect movement, it sends images back to your phone.
-
Keypad-A keypad is another option that allows you to remotely enter codes. A keypad can be used to open your garage if your keys are lost or misplaced.
-
Cameras - Most people think of cameras only as surveillance devices, however there are multiple ways to use them. One way is to set up a camera outside and then monitor it from your smartphone. Or, you could program your camera to take photos every few minutes and store them locally (on your computer). These photos can then be viewed later, whenever you like.
