Authority Levels (Profiles) for Users 
About Authority Levels 
Authorities determine the features that 
groups of alarm panel users will be able to 
use, and when and where they can use 
their access card to enter controlled 
areas. Up to 100 user-
authorities can be 
set up (through a system keypad), with 
each one containing up to 4
 'profiles' of 
settings—
allowing a different set of 
authorities to be assigned to different 
areas, or groups of areas in the facility. 
With the MONITOR ISM Director software: Up to 1000 
user-authorities can be defined (depending on the 
software version and licensing). 
Floor Authority vs. Panel Firmware: Panel firmware 
≥V3.2  (recommended for systems with elevators) 
supports 4 sets of floors, with a schedule for each set.  
V3.0x panel firmware supports one floor profile, with 
scheduling only as set indirectly (via area profile 
schedule below, plus schedules set during configuration 
of the areas, readers, elevators, and floors). 
Legend: O / S / O = For Off / Stay / On arming levels; 
  Days / PM = During vs. outside of schedule.
