Note
Ensure that the zone password(s) are not lost because they cannot be overridden in the
field. The PC Configure software must be used to display the lost password or program a
new password.
Each zone can be programmed with a password by the PC Configure software to prevent
unauthorized reprogramming of zone by keypad programming. When this password is
programmed, it must be entered before system or channel parameters in that zone can be
changed by keypad programming. The zone password is programmed in the
Zones > Edit
Zone screen of the PC Configure programmer. This screen is displayed by clicking the
Edit Zone button. A different password can be programmed for each zone.
When an attempt is made to select a system or channel parameter in a password protected
zone, “Password” is flashed. The password is always eight digits long and is entered using
the same procedure as used for the power-up password described in Section 3.2. After the
password is entered, system and channel parameters for that zone can be reprogrammed
normally.
