- The virtual keypad works the same as a real keypad.

How to Setup Users
A user is a person who is allowed to arm and disarm your alarm. There are two parts to adding a user to a system with a BAT (Broadband Alarm Transmitter).
- Add a user code to the system by programming it at the keypad or using the virtual keypad. For directions on exactly how to do this on your system please click here.
Please be sure to keep a written log of a user’s name, user number, and user code. Store this log somewhere safe.
