8.1 Personal Identification Numbers
8.1.1 General Information
When programming Personal Identification Numbers, it is helpful to
know the following terms:
PIN: Personal Identification Number. This is the 4 digit code us-
ers must enter at the keypad to gain access to the system. A PIN
may be assigned to each User Number 001 through 090.
User Number: This is the number that identifies each person
using the system. There are 90 possible User Numbers available
for use (001 through 090)
.
Authority Level: This number determines which functions each
user will be able to perform.
Your system has the capability to assign up to 90 PINs, each four
digits long. Each User Number can have only one PIN assigned to
it. Attempting to assign the same PIN to multiple User Numbers will
result in the three-beep error tone, and the entry will not be made.
User Number 001 is designated as a Master code. It can be used to
add, delete, or change other PINs. It will always have access to all
partitions regardless of how it is programmed.
User Number 001 is shipped from the factory with the PIN of 1 2 3
4. This PIN should be changed to one of your personal preference
and must be programmed as a Master code.
PINs should never be programmed with common sequences such
as 1 2 3 4, 1 1 1 1, or 2 4 6 8 because they are easily violated.
8.1.2 Removing a PIN
To disable (remove) a PIN, enter:
A Master code, followed by [#] [0].
• [0]
• User number of the PIN to be cancelled, followed by [#]
User Number 001 can not be disabled in this manner.
8.1.3 Authority Levels
0 = Master: Can enter all commands, add or change PINs in all
partitions, change time and date, bypass, arm, disarm, perform
system tests, system reset, and view history. Any or all PINs
can behave as a Master code.
1 = Unlimited: Can enter all commands, bypass, arm, disarm, sys-
tem reset, and perform system tests. Can not change PINs.
2 = General: Can bypass, arm, and disarm. Can not change PINs,
system reset, or enter Command 7 or any of the Command 8
functions. Bypass and disarm are programmable by partition.
3 = Arm Only: Can arm the system with [On] arming only. Can not
perform any other functions including disarming.
4 = Temporary: Valid only for a specified time (PIN will disappear
upon expiration date). Can arm and disarm the system, but can
not perform any other functions. If this function is performed
from a Master Keypad, you must be in Single Partition Mode.
5 = Duress: When the system is disarmed using the duress PIN, a
silent report is sent to the central station. The Duress PIN is
intended to be used when the user is forced to disarm the sys-
tem.
6 = Access: When a PIN with an Access code is entered, any
output programmed for Access Output (e.g. door strikes) will
pulse on for 10 seconds (works when the system is armed or
disarmed).
This chart will guide you through the steps necessary to change a PIN.

It is recommended that this procedure be performed at a DS7447 keypad. No visual cues will be given from a DS7445 keypad.
