Multiple area systems
Keypad scope
Your security company can configure your security
system so that keypads allow you view the status of and
control only one area, a group of areas, or all of the
areas in your system. The areas you can view and the
area functions (actions) you can use at a keypad
constitute the keypad’s scope.
Authority levels
Each of your security system users is assigned an
authority level. An authority level determines how much
control the user has for any function that requires a
passcode (turning an area on, for example). The
authority level is set for each area in a multiple area
system so that a user can have different levels in each
area, if desired.
Scope and authority levels combined
The functions you can use at a keypad (turning All On,
for example) are limited to the areas you have authority
in, and the areas that are within a keypad’s scope.
Example
Your security system protects a business configured for
three areas (the office, the warehouse, and shipping),
and three users (1, 2, and 3).
