Access to the System
To operate the system a user must identify themselves, either by
entering an access code on the keypad or by presenting a
proximity tag to the front of the keypad (see page 10).
Access code and proximity tag act as unique identifiers for each
user, and may be used interchangeably at any time.
Access Codes
In a Security Grade 2 system access codes are four digits long,
providing a total of 10,000 different codes, running from “0000”
to “9999”. In a Security Grade 3 system access codes are six
digits long, providing a total of 1,000,000 different codes, from
“000000” to “999999”.
When delivered from the factory the control unit recognises just
one user, and this user has Master User privileges (see page 7).
In Security Grade 2 the Master User’s default access code is
“1234”; in Security Grade 3 it is “123456”. By default the master
User does not have any tag or other device registered to their
account.
Cooper Security Limited recommend that you change the
default access code as soon as possible (see page 35).
Codes 0000 (or 000000) to 9999 (or 999999) are available but
Cooper Security Limited recommends that you avoid easily
memorised codes such a 0000, 999999 or 654321.
The installer has their own access code which they cannot use to
set or unset the alarm system. Neither can they use that code to
change details of other users registered to the system. Similarly,
the Master User code has no access to any installer programming
menus.
