Texecom Premier Elite — User Code Setup

Purpose

This guide covers adding, editing, and deleting user codes on the Premier Elite, both via the keypad and via Wintex. It includes the default codes, user types, and the handover process.

1. Default Codes (Factory Settings)

User	Number	Default Code
Engineer	00	1234
Master User	01	1234
UDL Password (Wintex)	—	1234

Change all default codes on every new installation before handover. A system handed over with default codes is insecure.

2. User Types

Type	Name	What they can do
0	Engineer	Full programming access. Not used for normal arming/disarming.
1	Master	Arm/disarm all areas, add/edit/delete users, full keypad menu access
2	Manager	Arm/disarm, most keypad menus — cannot manage users
3	Standard	Arm/disarm assigned areas, limited menu access
4	Local	Arms/disarms only the local keypad's assigned area
5	Duress	Triggers a silent panic when entered — used on Grade 3+ systems only
6	Arm Only	Can arm and reset — cannot disarm
7	Door Strike	Activates door unlock outputs only
8	Vacation	Automatically deleted once the Master User disarms after an arm — single-use access
9	Custom	Fully configurable individual permissions

For a typical domestic install:

User 01 = Master User (Type 1) — customer's primary code
Users 02 onward = Standard (Type 3) — family members, keyholders

3. Code Specifications

Codes are 4, 5, or 6 digits
Codes must be unique — no two users can share a code
The system allows a mixture of code lengths across users

4. Adding/Editing Users via Keypad (Master User)

The Master User can add and edit other users from the keypad without engineer access:

Enter the master user code and press Menu
Navigate to Setup Users (use arrow keys), press Yes
Enter the user number to add or edit (e.g. 02), press Yes
Enter the new code for that user, confirm
Select the user type (1–9)
Select which areas the user can access
Optionally enter a user name (shown on keypad event log)
Press Yes to save

Deleting a user via keypad

Navigate to the user number and delete their code (enter a blank code when prompted) or follow the delete option in the Setup Users menu.

5. Managing Users via Wintex (Recommended for Initial Setup)

Wintex is faster for setting up multiple users and gives access to additional options:

In Wintex, go to Programming → Users
Each row represents a user: number, code, type, areas, time lock, name, door strike, proximity tag
Click a user to edit — enter the code, select type, tick areas, enter a name
To delete a user, clear their code field
Upload to panel when done

Additional Wintex user options

Option	What it does
Time Lock	Restricts the user to specific days/hours — useful for cleaners or contractors
Proximity Tag	Links the user to a Texecom proximity keyfob for keyless arming/disarming
Door Strike	Allows the user to activate a door unlock output

6. Changing the Engineer Code

The engineer code should be changed on every installation. The customer should never know the engineer code.

Via keypad engineer menu:

Enter engineer mode (see Engineer Code)
Navigate to Engineer Utilities → Change Engineer Code
Enter the new code and confirm

Via Wintex:

Go to Programming → Users → User 00 → change the code field → upload

Record the engineer code in a secure location accessible to Wilsons but not the customer. If the code is lost, follow the reset procedure in Engineer Code.

7. Customer Handover — User Code Checklist
