Note: While programming, fire/burglar
alarm functions are disabled.
User (Arm/Disarm) Codes
You can choose up to 5 different four-digit
codes (4 in the MA854) that will allow you to
arm and disarm your system. Any of these
codes can easily be changed or removed
should it become necessary in the future to
deny a user access to the premises. Your se-
curity system cannot be disarmed by un-
authorized persons. It will respond only when
a code of your choosing is entered through
the keypad.
Service Code (MA1008 and MA1010 only)
Your alarm specialist may have pro-
grammed User 5’s code as a Service Code, a
temporary code intended for occasional use
only, thus allowing guests, babysitters, service
employees, etc. limited access to the control
panel. When no longer needed, the code is
disabled.
The Service Code is controlled by User 1.
Whenever User 1’s Code is entered, the Serv-
ice Code is disabled, and it remains disabled
until the panel is once again armed using the
Service Code. (The Service Code can always
be used to arm and, in fact, can be pro-
grammed as an arm-only code by your in-
staller.)
Selecting Your Codes
After your alarm specialist installs your sys-
tem, he will give you a “User Program Code”
and show you how to program your User
Codes. For optimum security, do not select
obvious combinations, such as consecutive
numbers (1,2,3,4), repetitive numbers
(2,2,2,2), your street or telephone number,
birth date, etc., for any user code. A code of at
least three digits is required in UL installations.
1. Hold down Key [8] until the sounder
beeps. This puts the system into the User Pro-
gram Mode.
2. Enter your Program Code into the key-
pad; the first three lights will flash and
sounder will pulse. Program your User Codes
as follows:
a. Press Key [S].
b. Enter the user number “1” through “5”
(“1” through “4” in the MA854). (MA1008,
MA1010: Enter “5” for the Service Code, if
available.)
c. Enter a code of up to four-digits (digits 1-
9 only).
Examples:
Press
•
[S] + [1] + up to four digits = User 1’s
Code
•
[S] + [2] + up to four digits = User 2’s
Code
•
[S] + [5] + up to four digits = User 5’s
Code (or Service Code)
You do not have to assign all codes. Use as
many as you need and change them as neces-
sary.
To erase any code(s), repeat steps 1, 2a,
and 2b. For example, to erase User 3, enter
[S] + [3] (do not enter the four-digit code).
3. To end the programming mode, press
Key [S] twice.
