Change your Central Station Passcode for Xfinity Home Pro Protection

The Central Station Passcode is a security feature that allows you to identify yourself or someone you trust to the Central Monitoring Station in the event of an Xfinity Home system alarm. You must create the code during initial system setup but can easily change it whenever you want.

What you'll need:

  • Xfinity Home
  • Access to your Xfinity Home touchscreen
  • Your Master Keypad Code

If you can’t remember your Master Keypad Code, see how to reset your code.
