Security Codes

General Information
For additional security you (the Master User Code) can assign secondary user codes to individual users
enabling them to perform specific system functions. These secondary users are identified by "user
numbers" when their codes are assigned. You can assign up to 6 user codes (2-digit user numbers 03-
08). Note that the master user is the only one who can assign codes to secondary users, and is
designated user no. 02; user no. 01 is the Installer's code.
All codes can be used interchangeably when performing system functions (a system armed with one
user's code can be disarmed by another user's code), with the exception of the Babysitter Code described
below.
Babysitter Code (User 07): This code can be used to arm the system, but cannot disarm the system
unless the system was armed with this code. This code is typically assigned to someone (such as a
babysitter) who needs to arm/disarm the system only at certain times. The Babysitter Code is assigned
to User 07.
Duress Code (User 08): This feature is intended for use when you are forced to disarm or arm the
system under threat. When used, the system will act normally, but can silently notify the alarm
monitoring company of your situation, if that service has been provided. Duress Code is assigned to
User 08.
The Duress Code is useful only when the system is connected to an alarm monitoring
company.
To Add/Delete a User or Change a User's Code
Changing the Master User Code
Follow the procedure for changing a user's code, but enter User No. 02 and enter the new code twice.
IMPORTANT: Temporary users of the system (e.g., babysitters, cleaning staff) should not be shown
how to use any system function they do not need to know, such as bypassing protection zones for
example.
Sequential key depressions for all steps in a procedure must be made within 2 seconds of one another,
or else the entire entry is aborted and must be repeated from its beginning.
LYNXR-2SIA False Alarm Prevention Feature
The system prevents User Codes (including the duress code) from being duplicated. If you have
attempted to assign a duplicate 4 digit code, 4 beeps will sound and the entry is rejected. Any previous
existing code will remain unchanged. Choose a different new 4 digit code and repeat the procedure.
+ CODE Key + user number (03-08) + user's code
Add a user code:
Master user code
+ CODE Key + user number (03-08)
Delete a user code:
Master user code
Wait (about 3 seconds) until the keypad beeps once before pressing any other key. The code is
automatically deleted.
