Security Codes & Authority Levels
General Information
At the time of installation, you were assigned an authority level and a
personal four-digit security code, known only to you and yours. The
security code must be entered when arming and disarming the
system. The authority level defines the system functions that you can
perform.
As an additional safety feature, other users that do not have a need to
know your code can be assigned different security codes, and each
user can be given a different authority level. Users are identified by
"user numbers", which are assigned when assigning a user's security
code.
All codes can be used interchangeably when performing system
functions within the limits of each code's authority level (a system
armed with one user's code can be disarmed by another user's code),
with the exception of the Operator Level C code. See AUTHORITY
LEVELS section on the following page for detailed information
regarding user authority levels.
Duress Code
This feature is intended for use when you are forced to disarm or arm
the system under threat. When used, the system will act normally,
but can silently notify the central station of your situation, if that
service has been provided. The duress code is pre-assigned by the
installer during installation (auth. level 6).
Important:
This code is useful only when the system is connected to
a central station.
Quick Arming
Note that if "Quick Arming" was programmed by the installer, the #
key can be pressed in place of the security code when arming the
