SECURITY CODES
& AUTHORITY LEVELS
Authority Levels
Authority levels define the system functions a particular user can
perform. Depending on the authority assigned to you, there are
certain system functions you may be prohibited from performing.
In summary, there are six authority levels, each having certain
system restrictions as shown below.
Level 1 Master: Can perform all system functions in assigned
partitions, and can add, delete, or change
Manager and Operator users. Master codes
are added by the Installer.
Level 2 Manager: Can perform system functions in assigned
partitions, and can add, delete, or change
Operator level users.
Level 3 Operator A: Can perform system functions in assigned
partitions, but cannot add or delete other
users.
Level 4 Operator B: Same as Operator A, except Operator B
cannot bypass zones of protection.
Level 5 Operator C: Can arm the system in assigned partitions, but
cannot disarm the system unless the system
was armed with this code. This code is typically
assigned to someone who has the need to
arm/disarm the system only at certain times
(such as a baby-sitter).
Level 6 Duress: Can arm and disarm the system, but also
sends a silent panic alarm to the central
station, if that service is connected.
