Security Codes
The FA168CPS system supports up to 48 security codes (FA148CP supports 32 codes), which can
each be assigned one of 5 authority levels. The authority level determines the functions each code
can perform as follows:
Authority Levels
(authority levels can be assigned to users 3-49 only; users 1 and 2 cannot be changed)
Level User No. Functions
Installer 01 (default=4112) perform all security functions except can disarm only if
used to arm; can enter program mode; can change System Master code;
cannot assign any other user codes
System 02 (default 1234) only one system master code per system; can perform all
Master security functions, add/delete users in either partition, change system
master code, view event log, set system clock, program keypad macro,
program scheduled events, activate output devices (triggers/relays)
Partition P1 = 03 FA168CPS. Same as Master, except add/delete users limited to
Master P2 = 33 assigned partition only, (these users can be assigned different authority
(default) levels; any user can be assigned the partition master authority level)

1-Arm Only see “user” arm system only
2-Guest see “user” can disarm the system only if it was used to arm the system
3-Duress see “user” performs security functions, but also silently sends a duress message to
the central station; reports as duress code user number.
4-Partition see “user” FA168CPS. See Partition Master paragraph above; used to assign
Master other user numbers as partition masters

Refer to the user guide for detailed procedures on adding/deleting security codes and changing user
attributes.
The following is a brief description of how to add user codes.
Changing the System Master code...
•
Using Installer code: Installer code + [8] + 02 + new code
•
Using current System Master code: System Master code + [8] + 02 + new code + new code again
Adding a User Code: Master code + [8] + 2-digit user no. + user’s code
Deleting a User Code: Master code + [8] + 2-digit user no. + [#] [0]
Assigning Attributes: Master code + [8] + 2-digit user no. + [#] [attribute no.] + value
Attributes: Values
1 = Authority Level 0-4 (see Authority Level table above)
2 = Access Group 0-8 (0 = not assigned to a group)
3 = Active Partition(s) 1, 2, 3 (common)
for this user; Enter partitions consecutively if more than one
and press [#] to end the entries.
4 = RF Zone No. Assigns user number to button type zone for
arm/disarm (keyfob must be enrolled in
system first; see Wireless Key Templates
section).
5 = Open/Close Paging 1 for yes, 0 for no
