2GIG EDGE Quick Start Guide

Using the Duress Code

To transmit a user duress report to the Central Station (for example, being coerced by an unwanted intruder), use the steps below to input the system’s 

unique 

Duress Code

. The Central Station is notified about the duress situation. The intruder will be unaware that the service provider has been contacted for 

assistance . 
For added security, disable 

Bluetooth Disarming

 and 

Face Recognition

 options in 

Bluetooth Settings

 (see 

page 27

) .

To learn how to create a unique Duress Code for the system, see “

Change the Master User or Duress Code

” on 

page 23

 .

Enter the 

Duress Code

 (different from the 

Disarm Code

) .

IMPORTANT:

 Face Recognition does not detect 

Duress

 . During a Duress situation, 

avoid making the face detection gesture . Instead, tap 

KEYPAD

 then enter duress code .
