Security Codes
Your system allows up to 45 different security codes for use by other users, however only the Master user or Partition Programmer can assign user codes to users. Users are also assigned an Authority Level, which defines the functions a particular user can and cannot perform.

- To delete a user code, enter your [Master/Part. Prog code] + [8] + [user number] + [#] + [0].
- To assign an authority level, enter your [Master/Part. Prog code] + [8] + [user number] + [#] + [1] + [authority level].
Some user authority levels have been pre-programmed:
| User Authority Level | Explanation | Code to assign to user |
| Master | Can perform all functions and assign codes. | [Master code] + [8] + [0] + [2] + [new master code] + [new master code] |
| Standard | Can only perform security function in assigned partitions. | [0] |
| Arm Only | Can only arm the system. | [1] |
| Guest | Can arm the system in assigned partitions, but cannot disarm the system unless the system was armed with this code. Perfect for babysitters, cleaners, etc. | [2] |

Trouble Conditions
Trouble conditions are indicated by the word CHECK and continual beeping from the touchpad. Any key will silence the beeping. A display of CHECK + zone no. may indicate that a problem requires your attention. Check the specified zone area, close any open doors or windows and enter your security code and press [OFF]. If your system includes wireless sensors, the CHECK condition may be caused by some change in the environment of the protected area.
To silence trouble beeps, press any key or enter your security code and press [OFF].
