Tech/Engineering - Electronics / Elect Eng / alarm system
Italian term or phrase: codice antiaggressione
The 'codice antiaggressione' is a code which you can enter to turn off the alarm if you're being forced to do so against your will and which generates a silent emergency alarm. I can't think how this would be phrased in English though.
