Your system can be set to provide you with an audible alert of the opening of a door, while it 
is disarmed, by using Chime mode. When activated, three beeps will sound at the control 
whenever a protected perimeter door is opened and the zone voice descriptor will be 
announced. Additionally, the faulted zone information will be displayed on the home screen.

USER FUNCTIONS

User Access 
General Information 
For additional security you (the Master User Code) can assign secondary user codes to 
individual users enabling them to perform specific system functions. These secondary users 
are identified by User Numbers when their codes are assigned. You can assign up to 14 
user codes. Note that the Master User is the only one who can assign codes to secondary 
users. 
All codes can be used interchangeably when performing system functions (a system armed 
with one users code can be disarmed by another users code), with the exception of the 
Babysitter Code described below.  
•  Babysitter Code:   This code can be used to arm the system, but cannot disarm the 
system  unless the system was armed with this code. This code is typically assigned to 
someone (such as a babysitter) who needs to arm/disarm the system only at certain 
times.   
•   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 
alarm monitoring company of your situation, if that service has been provided. The 
Duress Code is useful only when the system is connected to an alarm 
monitoring company.  
IMPORTANT:  Temporary users of the system (e.g., babysitters, cleaning staff) should not 
be shown how to use any system function they do not need to know, such as bypassing 
protection zones for example. 
 
False Alarm Prevention Feature 
The system prevents User Codes (including the Duress Code) from being duplicated. If you have 
attempted to assign a duplicate 4-digit code, the entry will be rejected. Any previous existing code will 
remain unchanged. Choose a different new 4-digit code and repeat the procedure.
