URESS
The duress function activates a silent signal to alert security personnel. For example, if
you are asked, under threat, to breach your system security (e.g. forced to disarm the
system), this function lets you do so while at the same time activating the system duress
facility. However, your Advisor MASTER system must be programmed to use it.
You use a duress digit in conjunction with your PIN code. The duress digit is the last digit
of your PIN, plus one (1).
e.g.:
PIN = 1234 - duress digit = 5
If the last digit of your PIN is 9, then the duress digit is 0.
To activate duress
1.
Enteryour PIN code without the last digit (e.g. 123)
2.
Enter the duress digit, for example
5
in the case shown above.
3.
Press:
[OFF]
or
[ON]
or
[ENTER]
.
To reset duress
To reset the duress facility (i.e. to turn off the signal), enter a valid PIN code.
✍
If duress was activated under conditions that are no longer valid (false alarm), and
it has been reset, you must contact your central station company to ensure that no
further action is taken by them.
Using your PIN code with the duress digit still activates the functions associated
with the PIN.
