Party or Whole House Mode

This feature lets the end-user press-and-hold any Master Key for three seconds to turn On the entire house to the same source for a party. It also allows for the press-and-hold of the Off key to turn Off the entire system from one zone keypad without the need to walk around to every keypad to do so. By default all zones will respond to Party mode. If there are zones that the end-user does not want to turn on when a press-and-hold is initiated, follow these steps.

Note: this feature only deactivates the press-and-hold On and not the Off. The Off is always available at any zone regardless of its setting.

While in the configuration mode, (see above) press the Set Key until [ 1234 PARTY MASTER ] shows in the display. A cursor will be blinking under the number “1.”
