Password or PIN code
"
The terms
Password, PIN (Personal Identification Number), Usercode and
Access code
mean the same and are used interchangeably.
A password restricts access to the controls available to the user at the Control panel.
There are three access levels to the controls. These are access level 1, 2 and 3.
¨
The
Access
level 1
controls only allow cycling through of multiple fire events
messages on the screen using the two buttons on the outer door.
¨
Access level 2a
is for the CUSTOMER. Here the person responsible for the system
can access the 'essential controls' by opening the panel outer door using a key
¨
Access level 2b
is for the CUSTOMER. Here the person responsible for the system
can access essential controls and some configuration menus using the panel door key
plus a customer PIN.
¨
Access level 3
is for the ENGINEER. Here the person responsible for the system can
access essential controls and all system menus using the panel door key plus Engineer
PIN.
¨
Daily PIN
There is another password that changes daily, which is available to the servicing
organisation. This daily password provides the same access to controls as the
Engineers' PIN. The daily PIN is only used when the Engineer's PIN is not known.
"
Always make a note of the Customer and Engineering PINs once they are
created. Ensure the Customer PIN is passed on to the person responsible for the fire
