A. Access Code
The RC-2A contains (3) rotary access code switches. Using a small flat blade screwdriver, rotate the white
arrow on each switch to the desired entry code setting. The code may be any digit 0 - 9 or “C” (# on a Touch
Tone pad). For higher security applications, you may also use the E and F positions provided, however, you
must have a special telephone with a 4 x 4 keypad.
When any switch is set to position “D” the access code is disabled. Any call to the RC-2A will have immediate
access to activation codes.
Note: An access code must be used, when the RC-2A is used on a line with other equipment that may dial.
