to gain access to various features and functions. Through iCenter, you may program
users to access any and all of the following systems:

TeleSMART
•
Internet
Users for the systems are programmed in a central user setup location that provides
the specific questions for the user pertaining to each system. You may want these
users to be the same, but there are situations in which you may want a user to have
access to one system (e.g., TeleSMART) without having access to another (e.g., the
Fire/Burglary system).
