Level Two security permits a user to access and change certain operational (“O”) commands as well as
report (“R”) commands. 

Level One Security
Level One security permits a user to access and change the set-up commands (“S”) as well as the
operational (“O”) and reporting (“R”) commands.

To set or change security codes, you must have a level one Security Code. At the command prompt, type
SEC S and choose menu selections 1, 2, or 3.

You will be prompted to enter a new security code. The security code is eight digits long and all eight must
be entered. Only the digits 0-9 are accepted.

For security reasons, the Messenger 570 system will ask you to re-enter your code,

Entering your code number

You can program an eight-character alphanumeric code to provide your Messenger 570 system a unique
identity. That code, which will appear in the log-on message, typically is an account number, site code, or
serial number. 

At the command prompt, type SEC S, choose menu selection number 4, and type your eight-character
code.

Entering the unit phone number

You can program a 15 character alphanumeric code to provide your Messenger 570 system with
additional identity. The unit

 phone number will be part of the Messenger 570 system’s voice

mode alarm dial message.

Entering your location name

Similarly, to complete your unique system signature, you can program your Messenger 570 system with a
location name which, like your code number, will appear in the log-on message. Typically, the location
name is the address where the system is located.
