Chapter 5 User Pins; Entering/Changing The User Pin - Abus WIRELESS ALARM SYSTEM Operating Instructions Manual

Chapter 5 User PINs

For many of the functions of the ABUS wireless alarm system, you need a security
code – your user PIN. These PINs are between 4 and 6 digits long. You can define up to
32 different user codes for the ABUS wireless alarm system.
You can also assign an authorisation level to each user PIN. Users with "higher"
authorisation have access to a larger number of system functions. Users with "lower"
authorisation are more restricted in the functions they can perform. When programming,
you can select between 8 different authorisation levels. For more information on defining
authorisation levels, see the installation instructions.
IMPORTANT:
Your ABUS wireless alarm system has the so-called Grand Master PIN 1-2-3-4 as a
factory default. If your installer has not yet changed this PIN according to your wishes,
you should now change it so that only you know it.
