Access Codes

Some actions require that you enter an access code. The Home Security Touchscreen
supports three types of access codes, and they are briefly described here. You access the
access code settings with the Settings button. See
Master code. The main access code for the Security panel. The master access code is
•
required to add, edit, or delete user access codes, and to change certain settings.
User code. Access codes for additional users. They are generally given to family
•
members and service workers. User codes are used to arm and disarm the Security
panel, but they cannot disarm parts of (subdisarm) the Security panel or make changes to
the master code or other user access codes. The Security panel is one of the security
settings that is accessed with the Settings button. See
information about the Security panel and other related topics.
Note: The Security panels on some systems have only a master access code.
Installer code. A code used by the system installer to access advanced features during
•
installation.
