Phone Access Key (Phone Options—Partition 1-2)
(partition 1: 0216, partition 2: 0226)
Note
Use the default setting (#) to
avoid conflicts between the
security system and other
phone devices and ser-
vices. Many phone devices
(such as answering
machines, computer
modems, and FAX
machines) and services
(such as call-waiting, call-
forwarding, and some bank-
ing transactions) require * to
initiate their operation, so
using * for this security fea-
ture could cause conflicts.
(Default = #) This setting determines which touch-tone phone button is used for system access
and control.
If the Local Phone Control feature is enabled, the user can pick up the phone and press # (within
5 seconds) to access the security system. The panel seizes the phone line and waits for the user to
enter system commands. Phone access can be changed from # to * (see the following note).

To change the Phone Access Key:
1. With the desired partition selected, press A or B until the display shows PHONE ACCESS KEY
#/*
(current setting).
2. Press 1 (for *) or 2 (for #). The display flashes the entered setting. Press # and the display
shows the new setting.
