Security Codes

Installer Code
The installer programs the 4-digit Installer Code initially as part of the prog ramming
procedure. The factory default Installer Code is "4-1-1-1", but may be changed in field ✱20.
NOTE: The Installer Code is defined as User 1.
The Installer Code is the only code that can allow re-entry into Programming mode. In
normal operation mode, only the Master code can be used to enter the User codes (refer to
Assigning the Master Code).
See the MECHANICS OF PROGRAMMING section for details on exiting the Programming
mode via ✱98 or ✱99.
Assigning the Master Code
In normal operation mode, assign the 4-digit Master Code as follows:
Installer Code + 8 + 2 + 4-digit Master Code
NOTE: The Master Code is defined as User 2.
Changing the Master Code
In normal operation mode, the Master Code can be changed by entering:
Master Code + 8 + 2 + New Master Code + New Master Code again
User Codes
In normal operation mode, the Master Security Code can be used to assign up to 4 secondar y
4-digit security codes. It can also be used to remove secondary codes from the system
(individually).
To assign (or change) a Secondary security code, enter (via keypad):
Master Code + [CODE] key + User No. (3–6) + desired 4-digit Secondary Code
The system will emit a single beep when each secondary code has be en successfully entered.
To delete a Secondary security code, enter (via keypad):
Master Code + [CODE] key + User No. (3–6)
NOTES:
• All Master and Secondary security codes permit access to the system for arming,
disarming, etc.
• If a Secondary code is inadvertently repeated for different users, the lower user number
will take priority.
• Opening and closing reports are sent for the Master Code as No. 02, with the appropriate
subscriber number. Secondary user codes are sent as Nos. 3 through 6 respectively, w ith
the appropriate subscriber number.
