Program A New Code
To program the new access code, perform the following:
1. From the Program Code menu, use the arrow keys to
scroll to the first message: 'Select (0) Program Code'.
Press [0] or [*] to program the access code.
2. The display will indicate 'Enter Digits' followed by
'AAAA'. This is the default setting for the access code.
Enter four or six digits for the new code.
3. The display returns to 'Select (0) Program Code'. The
new code has been programmed.
NOTE: Do not program access codes that can be easily
guessed and will compromise the security of the system
(e.g. 1111 or 1234).
Duplicate Code Toggle
When this toggle option is enabled the system will not
allow the programming of duplicate user codes. If a user
code is entered that matches any of the other 1500 users,
Installer, Second Master, Walk Test or Guard code, an error
tone will be generated and the data will not be saved. When
this toggle option is enabled the panel will not perform any
check for duplicates when codes are programmed.
Edit User Name
To program the user name for the new access code, perform
the following:
1. From the Program Code menu, use the right arrow (>)
key to scroll to the following display:
Select (2) < >
Edit User Name
2. Press [2] or [*].
3. The display will read 'Program Name'. For access code
0002, the default name will be 'User 2'. Enter the new
access code name using the number keys in the follow-
ing manner:
The letters of the alphabet have been divided up among
the 1 to 9 number keys on the keypad as follows:
[1] = A, B, C, 1
[4] = J, K, L, 4
[7] = S, T, U, 7
[0] = Space
For example, if you press the [4] key once, the letter 'J'
will appear above the cursor on the display. Press the [4]
key again, the next letter 'K' will appear, and so on. If a
different number key is pressed, the cursor will auto-
matically move to the right one space. To erase a charac-
ter, use the [<] [>] keys to move the cursor under the
character, then press the [0] key. (See "Access Code
Label Options" below for other options available when
programming user names.)
4. Once the new name has been entered, press [#]. The dis-
play will return to 'Select (2) Edit User Name'.

Edit Partition Mask
In order for an access code to function, you must program
which partitions the code will be active on. If the system
only has one partition, you must activate the code for parti-
tion 1.
To program partition access for the new access code, per-
form the following:
1. From the Program Code menu, use the right arrow (>)
key to scroll to the following display:
Select (6) < >
Edit Part. Mask
2. Press [6] or [*]. The display will read 'Select Toggle < >'.
Partition 1 will be displayed, followed by the letter 'N'.
This means that Partition 1 is not available for that code.
Press [*] to select Partition 1 (Y). The [*] key will alter-
nately enable (Y) and disable (N) the partition for the
selected code.
3. Use the right arrow (>) key to scroll to the next partition
on the system. Press [*] to enable or disable the parti-
tion. Repeat this step for the rest of the partitions on the
system until the desired partition access has been
granted for the selected code.
4. Press [#] once you have finished programming the par-
tition mask for the code. The display will return to
'Select (6) Edit Part. Mask'.
