1.9Special Keys

The following special keys/areas are common to all DMP keypads.

COMMAND (CMD) Key

Pressing the COMMAND key allows you to go forward through the programming menu and through each step of a programming sec­tion. As you go through the programming, the keypad display shows any current programming already stored in the panel memory. If no change is required for a prompt, press the COMMAND key to advance to the next step.

The COMMAND key is also used to enter information into the panel’s memory such as phone numbers or zone names. Press the COMMAND key after entering information.

Back Arrow (<—) Key

Use the Back Arrow key to back up one step while programming. The Back Arrow key is also used when an error is made while entering in­formation. Press the Back Arrow key once to erase the last character entered.

Select Keys/Areas

The top row of keys are called the Select keys on Security Command, Thinline, and Aqualite keypads. Each time you need to press a Select key, the keypad displays the function or options above one of the keys or in the Select Area. Displaying choices above individual Select keys or in Select Areas allows them to be used for many different applications. For example, you can enter AM or PM when programming the automatic test time or answer YES or NO for a system option.

During programming, the Select keys/areas also allow you to change infor­mation currently in panel memory by pressing the appropriate Select key/area under or on the display. You then enter the new information using the keypad data entry digit keys.

When there are more than four re­sponse options avail­able, press the COMMAND key to display the next one to four options. Pressing the Back Arrow key allows you to review the previous four choices.

The Select keys/areas are also used for choosing a section from the pro­gramming menu. Press any Select key or touch the Select Area when the programming section name you want displays.

Note: On Security Command, Thinline and Aqualite keypads, when instructed to press the first Select key, press the far left Select key; the second Select key is the second from the left; third Select key is second from the right; and the fourth Select key is the far right key. See Figures 6 and 7.
