What authority levels can be assigned to users, and what are the differences between them?

There are five authority levels: Standard User (level 0) can only perform security functions in their assigned partition; Arm Only (level 1) can only arm the system; Guest (level 2) can arm and disarm only if the system was armed with their code; Duress Code (level 3) acts normally but can silently notify the Central Monitoring Station when used under threat; and Partition Master (level 4, VISTA-20P only) can do everything a standard user can do plus assign security codes to users in their partition. The System Master has no assigned level number and can perform all system functions across both partitions. (Page 32)
