OVERALL DESCRIPTION
Console Operation
The console is designed with everything that is necessary for you to program and operate your HMS 1100 control and security
system. Because we feel that it is very important for you to feel comfortable with the operation of your HMS 1100, we
recommend that you start by becoming familiar with your console.
The OFF (1), DAY (2), NIGHT (3), and AWAY (4) keys are called shortcut keys. This means that you may press these keys to
go directly to that function without having to go into one of the "hidden" menus.
1- ' OFF '
The ' OFF ' key is used to disarm (deactivate) the security system, reset the fire and emergency alarms, and silence all sirens and
sounders.
2- ' DAY '
The ' DAY ' key is used to arm the security system in the Day mode. In the Day mode, the perimeter zones (doors and windows)
are protected, however, the interior zones are not armed so that you may move about freely inside. In this mode, there is an entry
delay on entry-exit zones.
3- ' NIGHT '
The ' NIGHT ' key is used to arm the security system in the Night mode. In the Night mode, the doors, windows, and non-
sleeping area motion detectors are armed. In this mode, there is no entry delay so the alarm will be activated immediately if any
zone is violated.
4- ' AWAY '
The ' AWAY ' key is used to arm the security system in the Away mode. In the Away mode, all zones (doors, windows, motions,
etc.) are armed. There is an entry delay on entry-exit zones, so that you can disarm the system when you return through the door.
5- Down Arrow
The Down Arrow key is used to scroll through menus and lists. The down arrow is used to scroll down the list from first to last
(for example, when the first program is being displayed, pressing the down arrow will cause the next program to be displayed).

Page 3
6- UP ARROW
The Up Arrow key is used to scroll through menus and lists. The Up Arrow is used to scroll back through a list (for example, if
you have already used the down arrow to scroll to an item, the Up Arrow will bring you back to a previous item).
7- CONSOLE LED
The Console LED is used to indicate whether the security system is currently armed or disarmed. If armed in any security mode,
the LED is set to red. If the system is disarmed, the LED is set to green. The LED flashes when a Message is displayed.
8- CONSOLE DISPLAY
The Console Display is used to show the current security mode and to give useful information that will guide you through normal
operations of your HMS 1100 control and security system.
9- CONSOLE KEYPAD
The Console Keypad is used to enter user codes for arming, disarming, bypassing, and restoring zones. In some cases, the keys
(0-9) are assigned to different functions. From the top-level display, each key functions as a menu choice.
10- CONSOLE BEEPER
The Console Beeper is used to confirm a keystroke, alert user of errors and troubles, and sound upon entry and exit delays.
11- ' * ' KEY
The ' * ' Key is used to cancel and return the display to the previous menu. When you are entering a number, ' * ' will cancel the
previously entered digits and will prompt you to reenter the number.
12- ' # ' KEY
The ' # ' Key is used to enter or confirm a selection. It may also be used to display a menu or to offer you additional choices.
Normal Top-Level Display
In its normal state, the console display will show the day, date, and time on the top line, and the system status on the bottom line.
If all doors, windows, sensors, etc. are closed, no zones are bypassed, and if there are no troubles, the bottom line will show
"SYSTEM OK" as seen below:
Thu Oct 04, 01 4:00 PM
SYSTEM OK
If one of the doors, windows, motion, or other detector connected to the HMS 1100 is open, or has detected motion, the bottom
line of the display will say, "ZONE NAME NOT RDY".
For example, the display will show, "FRONT DOOR NOT RDY".
If the zone name has not been entered during set up, the display will give the zone number and zone type. This display will
remain for 2 seconds, then the next zone not ready, in trouble, or bypassed will be displayed.
Display Menus
The system has been designed to be easy to operate. Whenever you press a key on the console, the top line of the display will
indicate what you are doing. To the right of that is your selection or current setting. The bottom line will show a menu of your
next options. To the lower right corner of the display is the direction arrow(s). Where possible, the up (↑), down (↓), and two-
headed (
 ) arrow characters are shown on the console display to indicate which arrow keys may be pressed at that time.

Page 4
When using the arrow keys to scroll through lists of areas, buttons, codes, temperature zones, units, or zones, only the named
items are displayed. If no text description has been given to an item, it will be skipped over when scrolling through that list. You
can still enter any item number to access it directly, and then scroll up and down among the named items. To look at another
specific item, simply enter the item number followed by the Down Arrow key.
In some cases, the keypad keys (0-9, *, #) are assigned to different functions or menus. A key assignment is indicated by the
character key directly in front of the new function on the bottom line of the display. For example, if the bottom line says,
"2=DELETE", you may press the 2 key to delete. From the top-level display, each key functions as a menu choice. Simply press
the appropriate key and you will enter that menu.
Main Menu
The main menu is entered from the top-level display by pressing the ' # ' key. This menu displays all of the functions that you can
perform from the console. It is not necessary to display the main menu before selecting a function if the number for the desired
menu item is known. The following menu choices are available:
1=CONTROL 2=SECURITY
3=BUTTON 4=ALL ↓
5=TEMP 6=STATUS
7=EVENTS 8=MESSAGE

9=SETUP
↑
Menu 1 - Selects Control functions for controlling lights and appliances.
Menu 2 - Selects Security functions (arming, disarming, bypassing, and restoring).
Menu 3 - Allows a Button (macro) to be activated.
Menu 4 - Selects All Lights On / All Units Off commands and Leviton Scene Control commands.
Menu 5 - Allows Temperature control for Thermostats and Thermostat Sensor.
Menu 6 - Allows various status items to be displayed.
Menu 7 - Allows you to view an event log of security "happenings".
Menu 8 - Allows you to play, record, show, log, clear, say, or phone a message.
Menu 9 - Allows you to enter setup mode for different operating configurations.
Error Beeps
If you press a key that is invalid for the function that you are doing, the console will beep 3 times, indicating that it is not a valid
option. Look at the bottom line of the display to see what keys you can press next.
Trouble Beeps
The HMS 1100 constantly checks the entire system for proper operation. If trouble is found, the trouble is displayed on the
bottom line and the console will beep at the rate of two beeps per second to alert you to the trouble. This feature can be turned off
if desired - See Set Up Arming, Beep On Trouble.
To silence the beeper, press the ' * ' key.
For more information, see Trouble Indications.

Page 5
Confirmation Beep
When you have successfully completed a function, such as entering a program or changing a setup item, the console will beep
once.
Cancel
If you are ever unsure and wish to return to the top-level display, press the ' * ' key. You may have to press it more than once,
depending on how far into the function (menu) you are. Each time you cancel out of an operation, the console will beep once to
indicate that you have canceled.
The ' * ' key can also be used if you make a mistake while entering a number. For example, if you enter a 2 when you meant to
enter a 3, press the ' * ' key to start over.
Time Out
If you are called away from the console for any reason (to take a phone call, for instance) while you are engaged in an operation,
the console will "time out" and cancel it for you after 3 minutes. The display will return to the normal top-level display.
Areas
If there is an area or a separate building that needs to be protected, your installer can divide your HMS 1100 system into two
independent security systems: Area 1 through Area 8 (up to 8 Areas). Each area has complete access to all of the capabilities of
the HMS 1100, yet the HMS 1100 can protect each area individually.
You may decide to use the Area feature if you have a guesthouse or workshop that you would like to have protected separately
from your home, or maybe you have a business and would like to protect an inventory stockroom separately from the offices in
your building.
The console in each area acts as if it were controlling its own HMS 1100 system. Each area is assigned, by your installer, a
console, a group of zones, control units, macro buttons, messages, and thermostats. These items can only be controlled where
they have been assigned.
HMS 1100 Maintenance
Your HMS 1100 controller and the consoles are designed to require very little maintenance.
For smoke detectors, motion detectors, and other components not manufactured by OnQ Technologies, Inc. and follow
maintenance procedures outlined by the manufacturer.
Consoles can be cleaned using a mild detergent and a soft cloth.
Every three years, or if the "BATTERY LOW TROUBLE NOW" indication comes on and stays on for an extended period
without reason, the rechargeable battery in the controller should be replaced. The recommended battery type is a 12-volt, 7 amp-
hour sealed lead-acid battery.
To replace the battery, disconnect the red battery wire from the battery (+) terminal. Cover the connector at the end of the wire
with electrical tape to avoid its touching anything in the enclosure. Disconnect the black wire from the battery (-) terminal and
cover the connector at the end of the black wire with tape. Remove the old battery. Install the new battery by reversing the
removal procedure. Be very careful to connect the Black wire to the (-) terminal on the battery; Red wire to the (+) terminal.

SECURITY SYSTEM OPERATION
Disarming the Security System and Silencing Alarms
Before going any further, you should know how to disarm your security system in the event that the alarm sounds. Turning the
system OFF disarms the burglar alarm, resets the fire and emergency alarms, and silences all sirens and sounders.
Press the OFF key. Now enter your four digit Code.
That's all there is to it.
Watch the display. The top line will read "DISARM" - The bottom line will read "ENTER CODE", indicating that your option is
to enter your code number. For each digit that you press, an "X" will appear indicating that the key has been pressed.
After the four-digit code has been successfully entered, the console will beep once to indicate that you have correctly disarmed
the system. The console LED will be set to green, and the display will return to the normal top-level system display.
If an incorrect code is entered, the console will beep three times and display
" *** INVALID CODE *** ".
Re-enter your code.
In the event that you make a mistake, press the OFF key again, and then enter your master code again.
Practice disarming your system until you are comfortable with this procedure.
NOTES:
 Panic, Tamper, and Fire zones are always armed, as are the Emergency buttons on the console.
 In the event that the alarm has been activated, the menu keys and the arrow keys are locked out. You must silence the alarm
using the OFF, DAY, NIGHT, or AWAY keys.
Arming the Security System
Now that you know how to disarm the system, here's how to arm the security system. The security menu is used to arm and
disarm the security system. To enter the security menu, from the top-level display, press the 2 key on the console keypad. The
console should display:
0=OFF 1=DAY 2=NIGHT
3=AWAY 4=VACATION ↓
5=DAY INST 6=NIGHT DLY
8=BYPASS 9=RESTORE ↑
0 = OFF
The OFF key disarms the security system, resets the fire and emergency alarms, and silences all sirens and sounders.
1 = DAY
The DAY mode is intended for use when someone will occupy the house or business that is being protected. In the Day mode,
the perimeter zones (doors and windows) are armed; however, interior motion detectors and interior traps are not armed so that
you may move about freely inside. In the Day mode, there will be an Entry Delay on the Entry-Exit zone, so that someone
arriving can turn off the alarm before it sounds.
OFF
1 1 1 1

Page 7
2 = NIGHT
The NIGHT mode is used when you are asleep and everyone in your household is at home. In the Night mode, your doors,
windows, and non-sleeping area (i.e. downstairs) motion detectors are armed. In the Night mode, there is no entry delay. The
alarm system sounder will be activated immediately if any door, window, or non-sleeping area (motion detector) is tripped.
3 = AWAY
Use the AWAY mode when you leave your house and no one is home. All doors, windows, and motion detectors are armed. All
zones have an Exit Delayso that you will have time to leave and close the door after you arm the system. The system will be
fully armed after the Exit Delay. There is an Entry Delay on the Entry-Exit zones in the Away mode, so that you will have time
to turn the system off when you return through your door.
Note that the Entry Delay only applies if you come in through an Entry-Exit zone. If someone attempts to climb into a window,
or if an interior zone is tripped before the Entry-Exit zone, the alarm will be activated immediately. If you do enter through an
Entry-Exit zone first, then the other zones are disabled during the Entry Delay, in case you have to cross through another zone to
get to your console (an interior motion detector, for example).
4 = VACATION
This mode arms all doors, windows, and interior motion detectors (same as Away mode). There is an Entry Delay on the Entry-
Exit zones. Use this mode when you are leaving for a period of days.
5 = DAY INST (DAY INSTANT)
Functions same as Day mode, however, there is no Entry Delay on any of the security zones. There will be an instant alarm if any
of the zones are violated while in this mode.
6 = NIGHT DLY (NIGHT DELAY)
Functions same as Night mode, however, there is an Entry Delay on the Entry-Exit zones. Use this mode if you are going to sleep
but a family member is expected home at a later time.
To arm the system into one of the 6 security modes, from the security menu, choose the security mode and press the appropriate
key (1 - 6).
Enter your user code number on the console keypad.
The console will beep once and the console LED will be set to red. The top line will display the security mode. The bottom line
will display, " *** ARMING SYSTEM *** " to indicate that the system is being armed. The system will be fully armed after the
Exit Delay expires. If arming in Away or Vacation mode and Audible Exit Delay is enabled, the console will beep until the Exit
Delay has expired. During the last 10 second of the Exit Delay, the console will beep twice as fast so leave and close the door
promptly.
NOTE: In Commercial Burglar Alarm Applications for UL Certified Systems, a Ring-back indication and Bell-test should be
heard after arming (closing). If not heard, call for service.
Using Shortcut Keys
There are three shortcut keys on the console to arm the system in the Day, Night, and Away security modes, and Off to disarm,
without having to go into the security menu.
From the top-level display, press one of the shortcut security keys. Enter your code number on the console keypad.
The console will beep once and the console LED will be set to red. The top line will display the security mode to indicate that
you have correctly armed the system. The system will be fully armed after the Exit Delay expires.
The programmed Entry Delay is __________ seconds.
The programmed Exit Delay is __________ seconds.

Quick Arm
For extra convenience, the HMS 1100 can be armed by simply pressing the DAY, NIGHT, or AWAY button twice, eliminating
the need to enter the code.
To quick arm the system in the Away mode, from the top-level display, press .
The quick arm feature only works if the alarm system is in the Off mode, and if no alarms are sounding. This feature is disabled
when the system is shipped. If desired, it can be enabled or disabled at any time - See Set Up Arming, Enable Quick Arm.
Bypassing Zones
8 = BYPASS
You can Bypass a zone that you do not want protected while the system is armed. Bypassing is also the only way that a tamper or
panic zone can be disarmed. For example, if there is a liquor closet or gun case on a tamper zone, then you must bypass that zone
to gain access to it.
Another reason to Bypass a zone is if the zone is having trouble. If a zone is causing a trouble indication, you can bypass that
zone to "cut it out" of the system until repairs are made.
When a zone is bypassed, it is no longer checked for alarms. When you bypass a zone using the console (or over the phone) it
will Stay bypassed until you Restore it. The console status display will show that the zone is bypassed only when the security
system is disarmed. When the system is armed, it does not display bypassed zones.
To bypass a zone, from the main menu or from the top-level display, press 2 on the console keypad, then 8 for bypass. Enter the
zone number followed by the ' # ' key, or use the arrow keys to select the zone. After the zone is entered, you will be prompted to
enter your security code. The bottom line will now read "ZONE NAME BYPASSED" to remind you that the zone is bypassed.
If a fire zone is bypassed, the console will continue to beep until that zone is restored - See Restoring Zones.
Auto-Bypass
In order to prevent the alarm from sounding unexpectedly if a window or door is open when the system is armed, the HMS 1100
will automatically bypass the zone if it is opened when the system is armed.
Note that there is an exit delay before the system is armed in any mode. The bypass will only take place if the zone is not ready
(i.e. open) when the exit delay is over and the system is actually armed.
When a zone is Auto-Bypassed, it will be automatically restored once it is secure (i.e. closed), or the next time you arm or disarm
the system. The auto-bypass is recorded in the event log as "ZONE NAME BYPASSED". To prevent any zone from being
bypassed unintentionally, you should always look for "SYSTEM OK" on the display before arming and leaving the premises.
The Auto-Bypass feature can be disabled if you do not want the system to automatically bypass open zones. If the auto-bypass
feature is disabled, the alarm will sound if a zone not ready (i.e. open) when the system is armed.
NOTE: The Auto-Bypass feature is disabled on UL Listed Installations.
Restoring Zones
9 = RESTORE
Restoring a zone puts it back on active duty in the system. When restored, the Bypassed indication will no longer be displayed on
the status line and the zone will be checked for alarms.
To restore a zone, from the top-level display, press 2 on the console keypad, then 9 for restore.
Enter the zone number followed by the ' # ' key, or use the arrow keys to select the zone. Press ' 0 ' as the first key to restore all
zones. The 0 = ALL choice is removed once a digit key or the down arrow is pressed. After the zone or all zones is entered, you
will be prompted to enter your code. The console will beep and the display will return to the top-level display.

What To Do When You Come Home
Entry through a door:
If you enter your home while the system is armed in the Day or Away modes, using your normal entry door:
•Console beeper comes on - display indicates: " *** DISARM SYSTEM *** - PRESS OFF THEN CODE"
•Any lights or control modules programmed to come on for the door that you used will do so.
•The system will wait the Entry Delay time.
You should go to your console (or telephone) immediately and turn the security system off. If you wish, you may go directly to a
different security mode, rather than turning the system Off.
If you return home and hear the alarm sounding, DO NOT ENTER. Use a neighbor's phone to call for help.
What Happens When the Alarm is Activated
Burglar Alarm Activated
If someone enters through any zone other than an Entry-Exit zone, if the security system is in the Night mode, or if the security
system is not turned off during the Entry Delay:
•The sounder is activated, which makes a loud, continuous sound.
•The display shows the type of alarm and the zones that have been tripped:
"BURGLAR ALARM! - ZONE NAME TRIPPED".
If more than one zone is tripped, then the bottom line will show each zone tripped for two seconds.
•The When Alarm macro is activated. Any units programmed to come on will do so.
•The Flash For Alarm Unit Number begins to flash on and off.
•The system waits the Outside Siren Delay (0 - 60 seconds), then activates the sounder.
•The system waits the Dial Out Delay (0 - 60 seconds), then if programmed, the in-house phones are seized
(disconnected) and the HMS 1100 begins to dial out.
If you are having your system monitored by a central station, the central station will be sent a code representing the type of alarm
(burglary) and zone involved. In most cases, the central station will call back, requesting your password or passcode.
If you are not using central station monitoring but are using the voice dial out capability, the system looks at the Dial Order to
determine which number to call first, and calls that number.
If you are using both central station monitoring and voice dial out, then the voice dial out is delayed by five minutes to give the
central station time to call you back.

Page 10
For more information on the digital and voice dialer - See Digital Dialer and Voice Dialer.
•The system continues to sound all alarms and flash the flashing light for 1-30 minutes after the alarm is activated.
•After a 1-30 minute period, the sounder is turned off, and the alarm system resets itself. The console beeper stays on.
If a zone is tripped after a reset, the sounder will again be activated, and the dialer will again dial out.
At any time, the alarm system can be turned off at the console.
Fire Alarm Activated
When the fire alarm is activated by the smoke/fire detector(s), the alarm responds exactly as described under Burglar Alarm
Activated, except:
•The console display reads, "FIRE ALARM! ZONE NAME TRIPPED".
•The sounder will activate in a 3 pulse temporal pattern to distinguish the fire alarm from the burglar alarm.
The fire alarm takes priority over the burglar alarm, however, if a gas alarm is already active, it will not override the gas alarm.
NOTE: If multiple alarm types occur, such as both Fire and Police, the display will alternate between the alarm types.
Gas Alarm Activated
When the gas alarm is activated, the alarm responds exactly as described under Burglar Alarm Activated, except:
•The console display reads, "GAS ALARM! ZONE NAME TRIPPED".
•The sounder will pulse on - off - on, then an extended off period to distinguish it from the burglar or fire alarm.
The gas alarm takes priority over the burglar alarm, however, if a fire alarm is already active, it will not override the fire alarm.
Emergency Keys
Emergency alarm conditions can be activated through the console. These conditions (Fire, Police, and Auxiliary) are initiated
with the simultaneous depression of two keys for approximately 1-second.
NOTE: The Emergency keys are always armed. The Fire and Auxiliary emergency alarms are silenced by pressing the ' * ' key.
To cancel a Police emergency alarm you must press the Off key and enter your code.

Page 11
Police Emergency
When the 1 key and the 3 keys are pressed simultaneously, the Police Emergency alarm is activated. This alarm operates exactly
the same as described for Burglar Alarm Activated except:
•The console display indicates: "BURGLARY! - POLICE EMERG TRIPPED".
•The interior sounder and the outdoor siren are activated immediately. There is no outside siren delay.
Fire Emergency
When the 4 key and the 6 key is pressed simultaneously, the Fire Emergency alarm is activated. This alarm operates exactly the
same as described for Police Emergency Button except:
•The sounders activates in a 3 pulse temporal pattern distinguish the fire alarm from the burglar alarm.
•The console display will read: "FIRE ALM - FIRE EMERG TRIPPED".
The Fire Emergency alarm can be turned off at any time by pressing the ' * ' key.
Auxiliary Emergency
When the 7 key and the 9 key is pressed simultaneously, the Auxiliary Emergency alarm is activated.
•The console beeper comes on - display indicates: "AUX ALARM! AUX EMG BTN TRIPPED".
•The console beeper continues to sound until the alarm is reset.
Duress Code Entered or Duress Alarm Activated
(See Duress Code for a description of when to use)
In the event that you enter your duress code or a Duress zone is tripped, the system performs a silent dial out as follows:
•No alarms, lights or console beepers are activated. The system does not display the duress alarm.
•The system waits the dial out delay, then begins to dial out.
If you are having your system monitored, the central station will be sent a code representing a silent alarm (duress).
Alarm Reset
The alarm system will reset itself after the outside siren has been on for 1-30 minutes. When the alarm system resets, any zone
that is ready is reactivated, so the alarm system will be activated again if the zone is tripped. If a zone remains not ready (i.e. a
door has been left open) it will be automatically bypassed when the alarm resets.
Alarm Cancel
At any time, you can silence your alarm system by pressing the Off key and entering your code. If the system has reported, or is
in the process of reporting an alarm to a central station, it will send the alarm code followed by a code indicating that the user has
canceled the alarm. If an alarm is canceled before the dial out delay has expired, the system will not report any alarm.
If an alarm is canceled during a voice dial out, the system hangs up immediately.

Trouble Indications
The HMS 1100 constantly monitors the alarm zones and several internal matters and will alert you if it detects trouble. The
particular trouble is indicated on the bottom line of the display and a trouble signal is given by beeping the console beeper
continuously, 2 beeps per second.
When any trouble condition occurs, the console will beep twice per second and continue to beep until the ' * ' key (cancel) is
pressed to acknowledge the trouble. The console will say "TRBL NOW" (trouble now) if the trouble condition actually exists
while you are looking at the console. It will say "HAD TRBL" (had trouble) if the trouble occurred and then corrected itself.
The following are trouble indications and their meanings:
 ZONE NAME TRBL NOW or HAD TRBL: If the reading for a zone becomes abnormal, trouble will be indicated on that
zone -See Status \ Test. Excessive resistance in the contact and wiring usually causes trouble on security zones. If the cause
is not obvious, call your installer for service.
 AC POWER OFF TRBL NOW or HAD TRBL: Indicated if the normal house current powering the HMS 1100 controller
is interrupted for more than 3 minutes. If this happens without good cause, check the wall mounted transformer to ensure
that it hasn't come out of the wall socket and check to see that the socket has power.
 BATTERY LOW TRBL NOW or HAD TRBL: Every hour, the HMS 1100 takes a dynamic test of the battery. If the
battery voltage is too low, then the console will indicate "BATTERY LOW". If this happens, make sure that the battery is
connected. The "BATTERY LOW" indication will remain until the next battery test is executed, 1 hour later, or when a
Status | Test command is given.
 COMMUNICATOR TRBL NOW or HAD TRBL: Indicated if the digital communicator (not the voice dialer) was unable
to make contact with the Central Station after trying both numbers multiple times. If this happens, there could be a problem
with the system, central station, or the phone line. Call your installer for service.
 FUSE TRBL NOW or HAD TRBL: Indicated when the solid state fuse that protects the "Auxiliary" power supply opens.
The fuse will automatically reset when the fault condition is cleared.
 PHONE LINE DEAD TRBL NOW or HAD TRBL: Indicated if the phone line is dead for more than 1 minute.
To silence the trouble beeps on the console, press the ' * ' key. If more than one type of trouble has occurred, the display will
show each one for two seconds. Pressing the ' * ' key will acknowledge all trouble indications.
If the trouble condition occurs again, the console beeper will beep again - See Set Up Arming, Beep On Trouble if you wish to
disable the beeper.
 NO CONTROLLER DATA: Indicated when console's alarm functions are no longer operational. This may indicate a
wiring problem to the console or a more serious problem. Call your installer for service.
Codes
There are 99 user codes that you may assign to users of the system. All HMS 1100 codes are 4 digits in length. A code can be
any number from 0001 to 9999. Each user should be assigned a security code with an authority level, areas that can be accessed
(if area arming is used), and times and days in which the code will be valid. Memorize your codes! Don't give them to anyone
who doesn't need to know them.
The levels of authority that you can assign to a user code are Master, Manager, and User.
Master Code
The Master code allows complete access to the entire system. Only the owner(s) or the one(s) who will govern the system should
have and use the master code. A Master code is allowed access to all areas, all the time.
User code 1 is always set to a Master code - See Set Up Codes.
