7. User Settings
What are the Settings You Need?
The installer provides you with a ready-to-use alarm
system, but a few settings and adjustments will still
be needed.
Note: Although the user settings are your
responsibility, you may request your installer to
perform them for you (except for the user codes which
you would like to keep secret).
The user settings include (if enabled by the installer):
• Bypassing zones - determining which zones
will be bypassed (disabled) during the present
disarm period and the next armed period.
• Reviewing the bypass list - "show bypass" -
displaying the numbers and names of bypassed
zone one by one.
• Recalling the last bypassing scheme - "recall
bypass" - re-using the previous bypassing
scheme, which becomes suspended after
disarming but is still saved in the PowerMax Pro
memory.
Note: RECALL BYPASS is applicable in Non-
Partition menu only.
• Private report* - determining the event groups
to be reported to private telephone subscribers.

• Setting user codes* - programming a security
code for yourself and additional 7 codes for
other system users. Codes 5 through 8 are
“Latchkey” user codes (see Chapter 2 - Arming
in the Latchkey Mode for additional details).
• Enrolling keyfob transmitters* - teaching the
PowerMax Pro system to recognize the ID code of
each keyfob transmitter (multi-button, CodeSecure™
type, wireless transmitter), so that the PowerMax Pro
can respond to commands transmitted by them.
• Enrolling proximity tags* - teaching the
PowerMax Pro to recognize the ID of each
proximity tag so that the PowerMax Pro can
respond to proximity tags presentation.
• Setting voice options* - enabling or disabling
verbal announcements (prompts).

LOW/MID/HI squawk (short siren sound) upon
arming and disarming by keyfob. All the options are
applicable for wireless siren. For wired siren, refer
to LOW, MID and HI options as "squawk enable".
• Setting the time and time format* - adjusting
the built-in clock to show the correct time and
time format.
• Setting the date and date format* - adjusting
the built-in calendar date and date format.
• Setting the scheduler* - setting schedule for
devices start/stop activation.
