3.0 Access Codes
Access codes are personal identification numbers that allow
you to enter certain programming modes and arm or disarm
the system. In addition to the Master Code the control
panel can be programmed to accept up to 48 user codes,
each with a unique access code.
Avoid programming simple or obvious access codes,
such as your telephone number, address, or codes
like 1234.
3.1 User Codes
Your installer will program the panel to accept four- or six-digit
access codes and will assign code definitions to all user
codes. The Master Code (default: 474747) and user codes
are identified by a two digit “code number”, where code
numbers 01-48 represent access codes 1-48 and code
number 00 represents the Master Code. To create or modify
access codes please see section 3.3 on page 9 and section
3.4 on page 10.
3.2 Duress Code
The last user code (code number 48) can be programmed as a
Duress code. If you are forced to arm or disarm your system
under threat, you can enter this access code to produce a
silent alarm at the monitoring station. Check with your installer
to see if this option is enabled on your system.
