Controlling Your Alarm System

Users

Each person who uses the system is described as a ‘User’ and can have their own unique identity, in the form of a PIN code, prox tag or wireless keyfob, or a combination of all three. Different users can have a different level of access to the alarm system functions. All this can be set up in the user programming section described later.

The control panel can be controlled in one of three ways:

1.By entering a PIN code at a keypad and pressing function buttons.

2.By presenting a Proximity (prox) tag to a prox reader.

3.By pressing a button on a special encrypted wireless keyfob.

Although all of the above methods of control will allow the user to set and unset the system for day to day operation, the keypad is required to reset the system after an alarm or fault condition. The keypad is also used to access the menu structure where additional functions can be accessed such as:

ƒViewing the event log

ƒProgramming user codes

ƒTemporarily omitting zones from the system

Groups

On larger systems, it is often necessary to split the system into separate areas or ‘Groups’ that can be set and unset independently by different users. Group operation can only be set up by an installer. The Galaxy 2 Series can be split into three separately controllable groups. If your system has been set up with Group operation, look for the notes on Groups throughout this manual.
