1.2 Personal Identification Numbers

The Personal Identification Number (PIN) is the 4-digit code users enter at the keypad to gain access to the system. A PIN may be assigned

to each User Number 001-015. The User Number identifies each person using the system. There are 15 possible User Numbers (001-015).

Your system may have up to 15 different PINs, each 4 digits long. Each User Number can have only one PIN. Attempting to assign the

same PIN to multiple User Numbers will result in the three-beep error tone, and the change will not be made.

User Number 001 is designated as a Master Code. It can be used to add, delete, read back, or change other PINs.

User Number 001 is shipped from the factory with the sequence of 1234. This code should be changed to one of your personal

preference. PINs should never be programmed with common sequences such as 1111 or 2468 because they are easily violated.

Adding a PIN

The following chart will guide you through the steps necessary to add or change a PIN. It is recommended that this procedure be performed

at a DS7447 keypad. No visual cues will be given from a DS7443 or DS7445 keypad.

• Do not install smoke detectors where normal area temperatures are above 100 degrees F (38 degrees C) or below 32 degrees F (0 degrees

C).

• Areas of high humidity and dust concentrations should be avoided.

The edge of ceiling mounted detectors should be no closer than 4 inches (10 cm) from any wall.

• Place the top edge of wall mounted detectors between 4 and 12 inches (10 to 30 cm) from the ceiling.

For exact mounting information, refer to the instructions provided with the smoke detectors.
