Multiple Partition Access - Honeywell VISTA-128BPT Installation And Setup Manual

Multiple Partition Access

Each user is programmed for a primary (home) partition. A user can also be given access to operate one or more
additional partitions. Within each partition, each user may be programmed to have different levels of authority. For
example, User 003, the VP of Engineering, could be assigned to work within the Engineering Department (Partition 1)
of ABC Manufacturing. Because he needs the full capabilities in his area, he is assigned as a MASTER with Level 1
authority.
He must also be able to gain access to the manufacturing area (Partition 2) on an emergency basis. You can set this
up easily by requesting that he also be assigned to Partition 2, with a level of authority set lower, such as Level 4
(OPERATOR Level B).
The control automatically assigns him the same user number within Partition 2.
EXAMPLE OF MULTIPLE PARTITION ACCESS
Part 1 Part 2
User 3 User 3
Level 1 Level 4
Master Oper B
In the above example, User 3 has MASTER authority in Partition 1 and OPERATOR B authority in Partition 2. His
user number is the same for both partitions. Note that if a user number is already being used in a partition, the
system will automatically assign a new user an unused number. Also notice that no access is allowed for this user
into Partitions 3 – 8. Attempts to access these partitions would be denied automatically.
Adding a Master, Manager, or Operator Code
During user code entry, normal key
depressions at other keypads in a
partition are ignored. However, panic key
depression causes an alarm and
terminates user entry.

250) + new user's code

EXPLANATION
Enter the level number as follows:
1 = Master
2 = Manager
3 = Operator Level A
Keypad then prompts for Open/Close reporting option for this user.
Press 0 (NO) or 1 (YES), depending on whether or not arming/disarming by this user will trigger
Opening and Closing reports. This prompt appears only if the Installer Code is used to add a user.
Enter 1 (YES) to allow this user to perform group bypasses. Enter 0 (NO) this user will not be able
to perform group bypasses.
NOTE: In addition to enabling the user for group bypassing, the user must also have access to
the partition(s) containing the zones being bypassed and have global arming
capability.
If access schedules have been programmed, this prompt appears. Enter the user's access group
number (1-8) if this user should have limited access to the system. Enter 0 if no access group
should be assigned.
If a 5800 Series button transmitter has been enabled for arming/disarming functions, and is not
assigned to a user, this prompt appears. Press 0 (NO) or 1 (YES).
If you answered "yes" to the RF button question, the zone number for the button is requested.
Enter any one of the zone numbers assigned to the button transmitter as AWAY, STAY, or
DISARM. The system then assigns all buttons of the transmitter to this user number.

† Or Master or Manager Code, but the code must be a
higher level of authority than the code being
changed (e.g., a Manager Code can add an Operator-
level Code, but cannot add a Master or another
Manager Code). Keypad prompts for the authority
level for this user.
NOTE: All references to the number of user codes
pertain to the VISTA-250BPT. The VISTA-
128BPT allows only 150 user codes.
