Texecom Premier alarm programming options
The Premier system can be programmed at three broad levels of sophistication, from a simple standard setup through to a fully bespoke configuration - AMCO can talk you through which fits your household.

Standard programming - right for most homes
Around 80% of AMCO customers are happy with standard programming: fully set arms all your sensors, a night-mode option arms just the downstairs while you sleep, the chime function pings a door or window opening, and the whole property is treated as one area with a single access code. Simple to use, and it covers the vast majority of households.
- Arms every sensor when fully set
- Night mode arms downstairs sensors only
- One access code, whole property as a single area
Advanced programming - more ways to part-set
If a single all-or-nothing arming mode does not suit how you use your home, advanced programming adds several part-set options - protecting just the garage, or just the perimeter sensors, for example - plus up to three separate user codes, each of which can be restricted to certain zones.
- Multiple part-set options, e.g. garage-only or perimeter-only
- Up to 3 user codes
- Zone-specific access restrictions per code
- Available at a small extra cost
Bespoke programming - built around your property
For larger or more complex properties, bespoke programming supports multiple independent areas, four or more user codes with time-limited access windows, permanent "24-hour" zones that protect valuables regardless of whether the system is set, separate monitoring for outbuildings, and integration with third-party systems.
- Multiple separate areas (count depends on panel model)
- 4+ user codes with time-limited access windows
- Permanent 24-hour zones for valuables
- Separate outbuilding monitoring and third-party integration
Premier 24: 2 areas / 25 codes · Premier 48: 3 areas / 50 codes
Panel capacity by model
Night mode - stay covered without setting the whole house
A common request: keep the ground floor protected while you sleep, without having to fully set the property and risk triggering it walking to the bathroom. Night mode arms only the downstairs sensors, so upstairs stays freely accessible until morning.
- Ground floor sensors live overnight
- Move freely upstairs without triggering the system
Perimeter-only setting - live protection without a full set
Perimeter-only part-setting is especially useful where a vulnerable occupant needs some sensors live day-to-day without setting the whole house - it keeps the doors and windows monitored while movement inside the property doesn't trigger anything.
- Door and window sensors active
- Internal movement sensors stay off
Restricted access codes for cleaners and contractors
Give a cleaner, delivery driver or contractor their own code that only disarms the zones they need access to - and on bespoke programming, that code can be limited to a specific time window rather than working around the clock.
- A code that only opens what someone needs
- Time-limited windows on bespoke setups
Independent outbuilding protection
A detached garage or annexe can be set up as its own area, monitored and armed independently of the main house - handy if it keeps different hours, or you simply don't want to disturb the rest of the system to secure it.
- Garage or annexe monitored separately
- Set and unset without touching the main house
