Access Codes
Programming Access Codes
Access codes are personal identification numbers that allow you to enter certain programming modes, arm or disarm your system as well
as activate or deactivate PGMs. The system supports the following:
•
1 System Master Code
•
2 Master Codes
•
29 User Access Codes
For information on how each access code can arm or disarm the system refer to the
System Checklist
on page 16.
System Master Code (Default: 123456)
The System Master Code can arm or disarm any partition using any of the methods described in this section and can create, modify or
delete any user access code.
Master Codes
Master Code 1 is permanently assigned to Partition 1 and can be used to create, modify or delete user access codes that are assigned
to Partition 1.
Master Code 2 is permanently assigned to Partition 2 (Exception: When partitioning is disabled, Master Code 2 will be assigned to
Partition 1) and can be used to create, modify or delete user access codes
that are assigned to the same partition.
Master Codes cannot modify or delete user access codes assigned to both partitions. Only the System Master Code can modify or delete user
access codes assigned to both partitions.
Duress Code
If you are forced to arm or disarm your system, entering the access code with the duress option enabled will arm or disarm the system
and immediately transmit a silent alert (Duress Code) to the monitoring station.
Must be enabled by your installer.
Programming Access Codes
Your system can be programmed to use either 4- or 6-digit access codes, where each digit can be any value from 0 to 9. Six-digit codes
are considered more difficult to “crack” and therefore, more secure. Avoid programming simple or obvious access codes, such as your
telephone number, address or codes such as 1234. See the
Master Quick Menu
on inside cover.
