To Add A Master, Manager Or Operator Code - ADEMCO VISTA-120 Installation And Setup Manual

Multiple Partition
Access Examples
To ADD a Master,
Manager or
Operator Code
Ademco Contact ID format is capable of reporting Users 001-150 uniquely. If any
other report format is used, only user numbers #1 - #15 can uniquely report to the
central station. Users #16 - #150 will report as User #15.
Each user is programmed for a primary (home) partition. A user can also be
given access to operate one or more partitions. In addition, within each partition,
each user may be programmed to have different levels of authority. For example,
User #3, the V.P. of Engineering, could be assigned to work within the
Engineering Department (Partition 1) of ABC Manufacturing. Since he needs the
full capabilities in his area, he is assigned as a MASTER with Level 1 authority.
This means he may Arm, Disarm, Bypass, Add or Modify users in partition 1.
It is also a requirement that he be able to gain access to the manufacturing area
(partition 2) on an emergency basis.
partitioned system by now requesting that he also be assigned to partition 2,
with a level of authority set lower, such as Level 4 (OPERATOR Level B) which
allows him to Arm and Disarm, but nothing else. The control will automatically
assign him the same user number within partition 2 and does not require
reprogramming of his already existing 4 digit security code.
EXAMPLE OF MULTIPLE PARTITION ACCESS
Part 1 Part 2

User 3 User 3
Level 1 Level 4
Master Oper B
In the above example, User 3 has MASTER authority in partition 1 and
OPERATOR B authority in partition 2. His user number is the same for both
partitions. Note that if a user number is already being used in a partition, the
system will automatically assign an unused User number. Also notice that no
access is allowed for this user into partitions 3 - 8. Attempts to access these
partitions would be denied automatically.
During user code entry, normal key depressions at other keypads in a
partition will be ignored. However, panic key depression will cause an alarm
and terminate user entry.

the code being changed (i.e. Master code can add a Manager or Operator level code,
but cannot add another Master code; a Manager code can add an Operator level
code, but cannot add a Master or another Manager code).

You can set this up easily with the
Part 3 Part 4 Part 5
Enter the level number as follows:
1 = Master (Arm, Disarm, Bypass, add or modify lower
level users)
2 = Manager (Arm, Disarm, Bypass, add or modify
lower level users)
3 = Operator Level A (Arm, Disarm, Bypass)
4 = Operator Level B ( Arm, Disarm)
5 = Operator Level C ( Arm, Disarm only if system
armed with this code)
6 = Duress (Arm, Disarm, triggers silent panic alarm)
Keypad will then prompt for Open/Close reporting option
