Which code corresponds to Visitor Present?

• A. 1037
• B. 1035
• C. 1038
• D. 1040

Answer: (A)

Understanding how a visitor status is indicated in the department’s numeric code set helps you quickly interpret on-site communications. When a visitor is present, responders need to know there is a non-staff person on the premises who may require access control or an escort, so a specific code is used to convey that situation succinctly. In this code list, that exact status is represented by 1037. So seeing 1037 tells officers and dispatch that a visitor is on site and appropriate steps should be taken. The other numbers in the same range point to different on-site conditions or actions, so they would not indicate a visitor.
