SECURITY
Bulletin: 2013-702
PROCEDURES FOR ENTERING A SITE ON WEEKENDS AND HOLIDAYS
Employees with a Principal Authorized Keypad Code:
1. Enter the site through the door nearest the keypad because you don’t have a lot of time to
disarm before setting off the alarm system.
2. If the keypad is beeping this means the alarm system is on and you will need to punch in
your numeric code and press ENT to disarm the system.
3. If the keypad is NOT beeping when you enter or if the keypad display reads “Ready To
Arm” this means the system is already turned off and you will NOT need to put your
code in.
Employees without a Keypad Code, Outside Groups and Construction Personnel:
1. Call Central Station at 408-278-6923 a minimum of a half an hour prior to entering the
site in order to give the operator time to disarm the site before entry. The half hour time
frame is necessary due to the high volume of calls and requests the Central Station
Department receives on weekends and holidays. Your cooperation with this is extremely
appreciated.
2. You will be asked to state your name or the name of your group, room number, school
site or department. The Operator will verify that you are on the Principal’s Authorized
Employee List for that site or that you have an “Application for Use of School Facilities”
on file. After the brief verification process the site will be disarmed within a half hour
and ready for your access.
Employees with Keypad Code:
PROCEDURES FOR LEAVING A SITE
1. Make sure all doors and windows are secured and lights are turned off. If you are the
only one left at your site you would punch your code into the keypad and hit ENT. You
will hear beeping, this means the system is arming and you need to exit. If you get a
strange message on the display or the keypad does not start beeping, call Central Station
for assistance.
2. If you are not the last person on site you will need to call Central Station and report that
you are leaving but there are still people on site. This will be noted in the log at Central
Station.
Employees without a Keypad Code, Outside Groups and Construction Personnel:
1. Make sure all doors and windows are secured and lights are turned off. Call Central
Station and let them know that you are leaving. Let Central Station know if you are the
last one out or if there are people still on site. This information will be logged in at
Central Station. If you are the last one out, Central Station will give you a few minutes to
exit the building and then set the alarm.
Each year, site Administrators must send a list of personnel authorized for after-hours access to
their site each year to Central Station.
