ABOUT THE KEYPADS
General Your keypad(s) (see page 7) allow you to control all system functions. The keypads feature a telephone style (digital) keypad and a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) which shows the nature and location of all occurrences.
The keypads feature a built-in sounder which emits alarm sounds during alarm conditions and produces warning tones during entry (and exit, if so programmed) delay periods. The sounder also provides acknowledgement tones when keys are pressed, and confirmation tones for successful command entries.
The keys are located behind a flip-down cover which can be removed, if desired.
Keypad Displays There are two basic types of keypad displays, Alpha and Fixed-Word, either of which may have been used in your system.
•Alpha Keypads feature a 2-line, 32 character alphanumeric Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) which can display the nature and location of all occurrences in friendly English.
•Fixed-Word Keypads are functionally similar to the Alpha Keypads, except that their LCD display uses pre-designated (fixed) words to identify the nature and location of occurrences. Words displayed on all Fixed-Word keypads are the same, except that their location in the display window will vary with various models (see the next page).
Unless stated otherwise, all commands and procedures described herein apply equally to all keypads.
