User Codes

The installer programs the 4-digit Installer Code initially as part of the programming 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 MECHANICS OF PROGRAMMING section in the PROGRAMMING GUIDE manual for details on exiting the programming mode via 98 or 99.

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.

In normal operation mode, the Master code can be changed by entering: Master Code + 8 + 2 + New Master Code + New Master Code again

In normal operation mode, the Master security code can be used to assign up to 4 secondary 4-digit security codes. It can also be used to remove sec- ondary codes from the system (individually).

To assign (or change) a Secondary security code, enter (via keypad): Master Code + [CODE key] + User # (3–6) + desired 4-digit Secondary Code

The system will emit a single beep when each secondary code has been suc- cessfully entered.

To delete a Secondary security code, enter (via keypad): Master Code + [CODE key] + User # (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, with the appropriate subscriber number.

Duress Code

Important: This code is useful only when the system is connected to a central station.

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 central station of your situation, if that service has been provided.

The Duress code may be any 4-digit code assigned to User Number 8.

To program a Duress code:

1.Enter Master Code.

2.Press the CODE [8] key.

3.Press the [8] key again (8 = Duress code User No.).

4.Enter the desired 4-digit Duress Code. The keypad will beep once.

Note: The Duress code must differ from the Master Code or any other User’s Code.

To change the Duress code:

Repeat steps 1, 2, and 3, and then step 4 with the new Duress Code.

To delete the Duress code:

Perform steps 1, 2, and 3, and then stop. When the keypad beeps once it signifies that the code has been deleted.
