Security Codes

General Information

Babysitter Code

Duress Code

Quick Arming

As an additional safety feature, other users who do not have a need to know your code can be assigned different security codes. These secondary users are identified by "user numbers," which are selected when assigning a user's security code. You can assign up to 14 additional user codes (user numbers 03-16), including the babysitter and duress codes. Note that the master (primary) user of the system is the only one who can assign codes to secondary (or temporary) users, and is user number 02; user number 01 is reserved for the installer of the system.

All codes can be used interchangeably when performing system functions (a system armed with one user's code can be disarmed by another user's code), with the exception of the babysitter code described below.

This code can be used to arm the system in assigned partitions, but cannot disarm the system unless the system was armed with this code. This code is typically assigned to someone (such as a babysitter) who has a need to arm/disarm the system only at certain times. The babysitter code is assigned to user 15. The user of this code should not use the “Quick Arming” feature described below.

This feature is intended for use when you are forced to disarm or arm the system under threat. When used, the system will act normally, but can silently notify the alarm monitoring company of your situation, if that service has been provided. Duress code is assigned to user 16.

Important: This code is useful only when the system is connected to a alarm monitoring company.

Note that if "Quick Arming" was programmed by the installer, the # key can be pressed in place of the security code when arming the system. The security code must always be used to disarm the system, however.
