Setup Users

This section covers the alteration of existing users and the
addition of new users to the system. The Premier 888 can be
assigned up to 49 users (plus Engineer) and the Premier
8168 can be assigned up to 99 users (plus Engineer).

Default User Codes

When the control panel is first powered up and the factory
default settings are loaded, only the Engineer code and
the Master User code exist.
The factory default Master User code is
4,-1 4,-1 4,-1 4,-1
.
!
The Master User is always User 01.
If the Master User code has been lost or forgotten, it
can be reprogrammed by the Engineer.

Assigning New Users

Before assigning new users to the system, the following
should be decided:
•
Which User number they will be assigned to
•
What the User code number is going to be
•
Which areas the user will need access to
•
Which User type they will be
•
Whether the user should be time locked
•
What name will be assigned to the user

User Number

When users are assigned to the system, they need to be
identified by the control panel. Each user is identified as
Users 01 through to 49 (Premier 888) or 01 through to 99
(Premier 8168). User 00 is always the Engineer and User
01 is always the Master User.

User Code

This is a unique 4, 5 or 6 digit code number that is assigned
to a user. The system will allow a mixture of different length
User codes. The User code must be entered at a keypad
before the alarm system can be operated (see page 6 for
details).

User Areas

Any number of areas can be assigned to the selected user.
Assigning areas to a user determines which areas can be
armed, disarmed, reset etc. by that user. In addition,
assigning areas to a user determines which of the area
related functions i.e. omitting zones, silent arming etc. will
be available to that user.

User Types

The User type determines which functions are available to
the user i.e. arming, disarming, resetting etc. In addition, the
User also type determines which options the user can
access i.e. Setup Users, System Tests etc. The following
User types are available:
