disable itself if it is disconnected

To make it work again, you must
enter a specif ic 5 digit code using the

nearly impossible. If you make a mistake entering the
code, do not start over; complete the
sequence, then enter the correct
code. You have 10 tries to enter the
correct code. If you are unsuccessf ul
in 10 attempts, you must then leave
