Programming Duress Codes:
Duress codes allow users to trigger a silent alarm or alert if they are forced to allow access to a
protected area. If a user uses a duress code instead of his or her normal user code, outputs #1 or
#2 will activate as normal, but the duress output will simultaneously activate to trigger a silent alarm
or alert.
NOTE
:
•
Duress codes are always valid and are not inhibited by any other operation of the keypad.
•
Duress codes cannot be the same as any other codes.
•
Duress codes can be used either as stand-alone codes or in conjunction with a user card*,
depending on how the user codes are programmed (see “Programming User Codes and
Proximity Cards” on pages 16~17).
•
The duress code should be easy to remember. For instance, it can be the same as a user’s
normal user code, but with a single digit changed, as by subtracting or adding 1 to the first or last
digit of the code. For example, if the user code is 1369, a good duress code might be 2369.
When programming duress codes, use this general formula:
AA BB CCCC #
a
– Output
b
– Duress ID
c
– Duress Code
Outputs:
•
41
– Output #1
•
42
– Output #2
Duress IDs:
•
01
to
50
– Up to 50 duress codes can be programmed for output #1.
•
01
to
10
– Up to 10 duress codes can be programmed for output #2.
•
0999
– Delete all currently programmed duress codes for the selected output.
Duress Codes:
•
A duress code can be 4 to 8 digits long and must have the same length as all other codes if the
keypad is used in auto code entry mode (see “Programming the User Code Entry Mode” on
pages 24~25).
