are often defined as chime zones. The feature can be turned
on or off while the system is armed or disarmed.
[*][5] Programming Access Codes
There are 37 access codes available to the user. They are:
Access code (40)......................One master code
Access codes (01)-(32) ............32 general access codes
Access codes (33)-(34) ............Two duress codes
Access codes (41)-(42) ............Two supervisor codes
All access codes have the ability to arm or disarm the system
and can activate the PGM Outputs using the [*][7] com-
mands. Access codes can be either four or six digits (see
section 5.1 “Programming Security Codes”).
For a description of how to program access codes from LCD
or LED keypads, see the PC585 Instruction Manual.
Master Code – Access Code (40)
By default, the Master Code is enabled to perform any key-
pad function. This code can be used to program all access
codes. If the Master Code Not Changeable option is
enabled (section [015], option [6]), the Master Code can only
be changed by the Installer.
General Access Codes – Access Codes (01) to (32)
General access codes can arm and disarm the system.
When the Code Required for Bypassing option is enabled,
users will need to enter a valid access code when bypassing
zones. Individual access codes can have the Zone Bypass-
ing attribute disabled under Access Code Attribute program-
ming.
For more information regarding access code options, please
see section 5.1 “Programming Security Codes”.
Duress Code – Access Code (33) and (34)
Duress codes will send a duress reporting code to the cen-
tral station when entered.
NOTE: If a duress code is programmed, when it is used, the
panel will always send a reporting code to the central station,
even if the attributes of the duress code are turned off.
Supervisor Codes – Access Code (41) and (42)
These codes can be used to program general access and
duress codes. The two supervisor codes have master code
attributes by default. These settings can be changed.
Access Code Attributes
There are three access code attributes which can be pro-
grammed for each code.
NOTE: Master code attributes cannot be changed.
To program attributes for a code:
1. Enter [*][5][Master Code][9]
2. Enter the code number [01-32,33,34,41,42].
3. Enter the attribute number to toggle the attribute on or off:
Attribute [1] ..... User enabled for arming, disarming, alarm
reset, [*][7][1-2][1-4] options, auto arm can-
cellation
Attribute [2] ..... Not used
Attribute [3] ..... Zone bypassing enabled
Attribute [4] ..... Not used
Attributes [5-7] Not used
Attribute [8] ..... One-time use code (access codes 01-16
only).
NOTE: You should have attribute [1] enabled for all access
codes in use.
One-time Use Codes
If the panel is disarmed with a one-time use code, the code
will be erased at the end of the exit delay the next time the
panel is armed. The code will also be erased at the end of
the Exit Delay when used to arm the panel.
If the panel is armed with a one-time use code, but another
user enters a valid access code during the exit delay, the
one-time use code will not be erased and can still be used to
arm the panel one time.
[*][6] User Functions
This command can be used to program several different
functions:
To Program User Functions:
1. Press [*][6][Master Code]. The Program (or System) light

2. Press the number [1] to [6] for the item to be pro-
grammed.
[1] – Time and Date
The time and date must be accurate for the auto-arm or
test transmission functions to work properly and for the
event buffer to time and date stamp all events.

To enable or disable auto-arming, press [2]. The keypad
will sound three short beeps when auto-arm is enabled
and one long beep when disabled. For more informa-
tion, see section 3.3 “Automatic Arming”.
[3] – Auto-arm Time
The system can be programmed to arm automatically at
a pre-set time. When programming the auto-arm time,
enter the time (hour and minute) using 24-hr format [HH
MM]. For more information, see section 3.3 “Automatic
Arming”.
[4] – System Test
When [4] is pressed the panel will test the bell output,
keypad lights and the communicator for two seconds.
The panel will also send a System Test Reporting code,
if programmed (see section 5.8 “Communicator –
Reporting Codes”).
[5] – Enable DLS (Downloading)
When [5] is pressed, the panel will enable the download-
ing option for one or six hours depending on the option
selected in programming section [702]: [7]. During this
time, the panel will answer incoming downloading calls
(see section 5.10 “Downloading Options”).
[6] – User Initiated Call-Up
When [6] is pressed, the panel will initiate a call to the
downloading computer.
