In this video, Michael from Alarm Grid shows you how to add change user codes on a 2GIG GC2e Security System. The panel provides support for up to 64 different user codes. Many users prefer to give everyone who uses the system regularly their own code so that they can see who controls the system at what time. It is very important that codes are not shared with anyone who shouldn't be accessing the security system. It is a major security risk to give a valid code to an unauthorized individual.

When setting up a user code on a 2GIG GC2e, you have the option of setting a schedule for the code so that it only works during certain times of the day. This can be useful if you give a code to a user who should only be able to use your system during designated times. This might be the case for someone like a maintenance person or a house sitter. User codes on the GC2e are 4-digits in length by default. You can also set 6-digit codes for the system if it is running Firmware Version 1.23 or higher.

There are a few special codes on the 2GIG GC2e Security System. The Master Code is hard-coded to Slot 01, and it cannot be deleted. There is also a duress code that is hard-coded to Slot 08. It is optional to set up the duress code. If you do decide to set up the duress code, then make sure to only use it during emergency situations. The system also has an Installer Code that is not assigned to any user slot. Unlike the other codes, the Installer Code isn't changed in the User Management Menu. That code is changed by accessing the corresponding section within System Configuration. The Installer Code is changed using Q43. However, we recommend keeping the Installer Code at its default of 1561. But the Master Code should be changed from its default of 1111.
