Section 4: System Operation
Duress Codes - Access Codes [02] to [95]
Duress codes function the same as user access codes, except they transmit a duress reporting code when used to perform
any function on the system.
Duress codes cannot be used to access [*][5], [*][6] or [*][8] menus.
Duress codes are created by the master user or supervisor users.
Note: Section [019] option 6 must be on to select the Duress Codes attribute.
One Time Use Code
A one time use code is a user code with the One Time User attribute enabled. This access code enables the user to arm the
alarm system an unlimited number of times. However, a user with this code can only disarm the system once per day. The
ability to disarm is reset at midnight or when the one time user code is keyed in by the master code user.
Note: One time use code cannot be applied to wireless keys.
One time use codes are created by the master user or supervisor users.

programmed and a proximity tag is enrolled.
