ARTITIONED SYSTEM
User Access Code
Your installer can design your system to recognize up to four
separate protected areas. A separated system is called a
Partitioned System, which can be useful in situations where
shared security systems are more practical. For example, a
company t hat has both an office ar ea and a warehouse area can
arm and d isarm each ar ea separately a nd control the a ccess to
each area. Therefore, one person may have access to only one
area, whereas another person may have access to all areas.
Access to the areas is determined by the
User Acce ss Code
.
.

REA STATUS DISPLAY
In Area Status Display you will be able to see the status of the
