SECURITY CODES
General
Duress Code
Quick Arming
At the time of installation, your installer programmed a personal four-digit Master
code, known only to you and yours. This code is used to perform most system
functions, including arming and disarming of the system. As an additional safety
feature, temporary user codes can be assigned (see next page) for use by those
not having a need to know the Master code. Note that the Master code remains
in effect even when other user codes are assigned.
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 the same as vour user code. except that the last digit is
increased bv one.
For example: If the normal security code is “1 2 3
the Duress security code is “1 2 3 5”.
Important: l This code is useful only when connected to a central station.
l User codes that end in “9”(ex. 6349) cannot activate a duress
alarm (i.e., 6350 is not a duress alarm code).
If your system supports “Quick Arming”, the key can be pressed in place of
the security code when arming the system. The security code is
required, however, when disarming the system.
