System menu
Your Simon XT self-contained security system security system allows you to program certain user options,
such as access codes, time schedules, or the system time. These options are accessed through a system menu.
Entering and exiting the system menu
To enter the system menu, press the scroll up/down buttons or the Enter button in the upper right of the panel.
Press Status to exit a menu or option edit mode and navigate up one level. Pressing Status while in the top
menu level exits the system menu. The panel automatically exits the system menu after a few seconds of
inactivity if no access code has been entered. After an access code has been entered to access a code-protected
area of the system menu, the timeout is 30 minutes.
Code options
The Simon XT security system provides a system of codes to be entered when a certain level of authority is
required to perform an action. These codes allow you to activate system options, customize panel operations,
and generate a silent alarm. The default code is based on the code length (3, 4, 5, or 6-digit code) determined at
installation. The code types are listed in Table 10.
Note: Any combination of invalid codes in excess of 40 keypresses (such as fourteen invalid three-digit codes) will cause a
system access alarm. The alarm locks all touchpads, except keyfobs, for 90 seconds.

Code Description
Master code The master code is the main code used for panel operations. The default code will be 123,
1234, 12345, or 123456 depending on the value set by the installer for code length.
User codes 1 through 8 These eight codes are supplemental user codes. These codes can be used for panel
operations such as disarming, but not programming. These codes can be any 3, 4, 5, or 6-
digit code, depending on the code length.
Duress code The duress code is used to generate a silent duress alarm while disarming.
