Secret Duress Button; System History - 2gig Technologies GC2 User Manual

Secret Duress Button

On the Home screen, the system logo always
appears in the lower right corner. The system
logo is the secret duress button.
While Armed
With the system armed, tapping the logo
displays the standard disarm code entry
screen. Use a valid user code or a duress user
code to disarm the system. The system
disarms normally, but a silent duress report
is sent to the Central Station and they will
dispatch help. If supported by the 2GIG
Alarm dealer, the left side of this screen also
displays contact information for the alarm
dealer or Central Station.
While Disarmed
You can also use the secret duress button
while the system is disarmed. Tapping the
system logo reveals the Enter Code screen.
Enter the duress code to send a silent duress
report to the Central Station and they will
dispatch help. The system remains disarmed.
If supported by the 2GIG Alarm dealer, the
left side of this screen also displays contact
information for the alarm dealer or Central
Station.

SYSTEM HISTORY

The Control Panel keeps a log of system
events in the order in which they occur. Each
event is marked with the date and time that
the event occurred.
To make reading the log easier, the system
history display can be filtered to show
selected events only. The events that can be
filtered for the system history log display are:
• Arm or disarm of the system
• Bypasses of sensors (force bypasses and
manual bypasses)
• Alarms (alarms are displayed with a red
stripe)
• Alerts (alerts are displayed with a yellow
stripe)
Some system events always display
regardless of the filters selected. These
events include:
