Security Codes & Authority Levels (cont’d)

General Rules on Authority Levels and Changes

A user may not delete or change the user code of the SAME or HIGHER authority than which he is assigned.

A user may only ADD users to a LOWER authority level.

A user may assign access codes only to those partitions to which the user adding the code has access. (ex. a user with access to only partition 1 cannot assign codes in partition 2.)

The only way to assign a user’s authority level is by using the "Add A User" procedure. To change a user’s authority level, that user must first be deleted, then added again.

A user can only be DELETED or CHANGED from within the partition he is assigned.

User numbers must be entered as 3-digit entries (2-digit for VISTA- 32FB). Single digit user numbers must be preceded by a "00" (example, 003, 004, etc.). Security codes are entered as 4-digit numbers.

Before assigning a security code, be sure it does not conflict with any DURESS code.

Note: When adding, changing or deleting users, all other alpha keypads in that partition will display "User Edit Mode – Please Stand By", and key depressions (except Panic) at those keypads will be ignored. Panic key depressions will cause an alarm and terminate user entry.
