THE DURESS CODE
(A SOFTWARE ZONE)
The duress code does not need to be programmed. The system determines it automatically by
increasing the first digit of the user code(s) of
units. All 8 user codes can accept the entry
for duress function.
TWO
Example:
User Code 1328, Duress Code 3328
or User Code 8312, Duress Code 0312
or User Code 0856, Duress Code 2856
When program the system with more than one user codes, it is important that the user
codes will not fall into the duress code of other user codes.
For example, if user code 1 is 1328, it is not allowed to make other user code to 3328, as
3328 is the duress code of user code 1.
The duress function only activates the communicator and the telephone dialer without
activating of the local alarm outputs
. Make sure that at least either the
dialer or the communicator is enabled for reporting alarms. Otherwise, the duress code can
give no function.
The following is the description of the duress code operation. It is not a programming
procedure.
To command the duress function, enter the duress code and validate via the [#] key.
