Arming and Disarming Your System
You may arm and disarm areas from a NXX-1820-keypad.
Only users with an authorized user code (Level 2 user) will be allowed to use the Aritech
Reliance XR alarm system. Users with no valid user code (Level 1 user) do not have access
as defined by EN 50131-3.
Lock Out On 3 Invalid Attempts
If an invalid PIN code is entered three times, the keypad will deny all log in attempts for 90
seconds. Attempts are counted from any method (e.g. keypad, app, or web page). You must
wait the full 90 seconds before trying again with the correct PIN. This is to prevent brute-
force attacks on guessing PIN codes.
