CHANGING SYSTEM FUNCTIONS
Changing Access Codes
The PC2525 features 8 programmable Access Codes. The first code is the Master Code, and the
remaining codes are normal Access Codes.
Programming Access Codes:
Enter [ ][5][Master Code]; the "Program" light will FLASH. The Zone Lights will indicate which Access
Codes have been programmed, and which Access Code is presently being programmed:
When the [ ][5][Master Code] command is entered, Zone Light 1 will be ON to indicate that the Master
Code is already programmed.
Changing or Adding a Code:
To change the Master Code or Access Codes 2 through 8, enter the number of the code to be changed;
the corresponding Zone Light will begin to FLASH. For example, enter [1] to change the Master Code, or
enter [2] to change Access Code 2, and so on.
With the desired Zone Light flashing, enter a new 4-digit Access Code. Do not press [ ] or [#] when
entering the code. If an existing code is being changed, the new code will replace the old one. After the
code is entered, the keypad will beep 6 times and the Zone Light will stop flashing and remain ON.
If you want to program another code, press the number key for the code to be programmed, and enter
the new 4-digit code as described above. When all desired changes are complete, press the [#] Key to
return to "Ready".
Erasing a Code:
To erase a code, enter [ ][5][Master Code]. Enter the number of the code to be erased; the Zone Light
for the code will FLASH.
Enter [ ] to erase the Access Code. When all desired changes are complete, press the [#] Key to
return to "Ready".
IMPORTANT: Do not erase the Master Code. If the Master Code is accidentally erased, contact your
installing company for assistance.
Door Chime On/Off
The Door Chime feature causes the keypad to beep whenever a zone defined as a "Chime" zone is
activated; your installer will inform you of which zones on your system will activate the Door Chime feature.
This feature is useful if the Entry-Exit door or doors are out of view, and you would like an indication of
when the door zones are opened and closed. Note that the Door Chime feature only functions when the
system is disarmed.
To turn the Door Chime feature on or off, enter [ ][4]. If the feature is being turned ON, the keypad
sounder will beep 3 times. If the feature is being turned OFF, the sounder will emit a single long tone.
