System Overview (cont'd)

Carbon Monoxide Protection

The optional carbon monoxide protection portion of your security system (if used) is always on and will sound an alarm if a carbon monoxide condition is detected.

Note: If a carbon monoxide detector develops a low battery, a “Carbon Monoxide Maintenance” message is displayed. To determine which zone is causing the problem, go to “Display Faults” to determine which zone has the low battery indication.

User Codes

Each user must be assigned a name with a corresponding 4-digit user code in order to gain access to various features and functions. Users for the system are programmed in a central user setup location that provides the specific questions for authorization level, partition assignment, and RF button assignment.

Extended Functionality

Extended functions are advanced functions that can be accessed through a standard alpha keypad or through the console emulation mode on your TouchCenter touch screen. Refer to your Control Panel User Guide for these features.

Safe Mode

The TouchCenter contains a Safe Mode of operation. In the rare event that the TouchCenter cannot successfully communicate in its graphic mode with the control panel, the Safe Mode is a backup mode that ensures that you can communicate with your system. In this mode, the TouchCenter operates much like a standard non-graphic keypad so that you can control your system until the problem is corrected.

If this situation occurs, the TouchCenter presents you with a message of “Problems detected. Start Keypad in Safe Mode?” and requests a “Yes” or “No” response. If you answer with “Yes”, the TouchCenter will go into the Safe Mode. If you answer with “No”, the TouchCenter will try communicating with the panel again. After 3 consecutive times of receiving no response, the TouchCenter will enter the Safe Mode automatically.

Note: Use care when providing the “Yes” or “No” response. Touching the screen outside the prescribed area may cause the background to come to the front. If this occurs, the Yes/No message that disappeared
