Information for PIs and Observing Teams

HQ Security

Headquarters facility and VSQ rooms require the use of a code to gain entry.

Headquarters buildings are secured from 5 p.m. to 7 a.m. weekdays and around the clock on weekends whenever the buildings are empty.

It is the observer's responsibility to call in advance for entry codes (Diana Hudgins : 808-881-3664 M-F 8:00 am – 4:30 pm HST)

The headquarters facility map in your room shows the location of the alarm system keypads and indicates which doors may be entered.
These are the only doors to be used after 5:00 p.m. and on weekends.
Unlocking any other doors in the Headquarters facility may set off the security alarm.
