Step 1

Enter in the system master code.

Step 2

Press the number “8.”

Step 3

Press the new user number. Note that user 01 is the installer, user 02 is the master, and users 03 through 16 are standard users. Select a user number that is not already in use.

Step 4

Enter in the new user’s security code, which is a 4-digit number and should be unique to the user. The keypad will beep once, confirming the addition of a new user number.

Step 5

Set the authority level for the new member as follows: Enter in the system master code, followed by the number “8,” followed by the new user number and then “#” “1,” followed by the desired authority level. 0 is a standard user, 1 is for arming capability only, 2 is a temporary guest, and 3 indicates that the level is being entered under duress and notifies the Honeywell security company.
