Section 7: Installer and Access Codes
NOTE: Security codes should be changed from their
default settings to ensure the security of the system. Do
not program codes that can be easily guessed.
7.1 Installer’s Code
Ref #: [000000]
The installer’s code must be entered to access the
installer’s programming mode. The default installer’s
code is [5555] for the 4-digit option and [555500] for the 6-
digit option. Enter a new code using numbers from 0 to 9
only. This code should be changed from the default setting
to ensure the security of the system.
Installer’s Lockout
Ref #: [000005]
The Installer’s Lockout feature prevents the installer’s
code and downloading access code from returning to their
default settings when a hardware default is performed.
Use the [<] [>] keys to scroll to ’Installer Lockout Enable’
or ’Disable’ and press the [*] key to select. By default, the
option is disabled.
NOTE: Panels returned to the manufacturer with the
Installer’s Lockout feature enabled, and that exhibit no
other problems, will be subject to an additional service
charge.
Engineer’s Reset
If the system has gone into alarm, whether during the pre-
vious armed period or due to a 24hr alarm, the system will
not be ready to arm until Installer’s programming mode
has been entered, or an Engineer’s Reset is performed
through the DLS software. When an alarm occurs, the sys-
tem will not return to ready mode (ability to arm is locked
out) if the alarm has not been acknowledged and/or
silenced within the communications delay. However, if
the alarm is acknowledged before the communications
delay has expired, no Engineer’s Reset is required and the
system will return to the ready mode. System troubles
(e.g. AC Trouble, Battery Trouble, FTC etc.) do not affect
the Engineer’s Reset. The requirement for a reset to be
done before the partition can be armed will not be cleared
by powering down the panel.
Partition keypads will display the following message
whenever the Engineer’s Reset feature has been activated:
Unable to Arm
Call for Service
If an Auto-arm attempt is made while the feature is active
the panel will log ’Autoarm Canceled Engineer’s Reset’
along with the normal Autoarm Cancel event.
7.2 Installer-Programmed Access Codes
Several high-level access codes can be programmed which
will help ensure the security of the system. By default, all
access codes are four digits. To program 6-digit codes, see
7.9 ‘Access Code Options‘. Access code programming is
explained in detail in section 7.3 “Programming Access
Codes”.
Grand Master Code
Ref #: [000001]
The Grand Master code is access code #0001. This code
can be used to program other System Master codes. The
default setting of this code is [1234] for the 4-digit option
and [123456] for the 6-digit option.
Second Master Code
Ref #: [000002]
The Second Master code can only be changed in this sec-
tion. This code cannot be altered by the user. This code can
be used to program other System Master codes. It may be
used as a master key for service people. The default set-
ting of this code is [AAAA] for the 4-digit option and
[AAAA00] for the 6-digit option.
Walk Test Code
Ref #: [000003]
The Walk Test code is used to access the walk test mode [*]
[6] [Walk Test Code]. See the Instruction Manual for direc-
tions on initiating a walk test. The default setting of this
code is [AAAA] for the 4-digit option and [AAAA00] for
the 6-digit option.
7.3 Programming Access Codes
This section describes four basic aspects of programming
an access code:
• Selecting a new access code for programming
• Programming the 4- or 6-digit code
• Programming the user’s name to identify the code
• Selecting the partitions the code will be active on
Selecting a Code
Before you can program a new code, you must select a
user number. To do this, perform the following steps:
1. Enter [*][5] [master code].
2. The display will read:
Select (0) < >
User No. Search
Press [0] or [*].
3. The display will read:
Sel. Code (0001) < >
User 1
User 1 (Access Code 0001) is the System Master
Code. Use the right arrow (>) key to scroll to the code
you wish to program (for example, access code 0002).
Press [*] to select the code.
4. A code is now selected for programming. The display
will read:
Select (0) < >
Program Code
This is the Program Code menu. Use the right arrow
(>) key to scroll though each display in the Program
Code menu. Each display pertains to a different
aspect of access code programming, including the
three listed below. To select any menu item for pro-
gramming, press [*].
