3.0 Programming Access Codes

Access codes are personal identification numbers that
allow you to enter certain programming modes, arm or
disarm your system as well as activate or deactivate PGMs
(see PGM Button (Programmable Outputs) on page 23).
The Spectra security system supports the following:
• 1 System Master Code
• 2 Master Codes
• 45 User Access Codes (including 1 Duress code)
For information on how each access code can arm or
disarm the system refer to the System Checklist on
