LCD Display
LYNX Touch’s Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) touch screen displays variable icons and text on “screens”. The screen displays status icons and associated text, the current time, system status information and menu choices. The system status is displayed in a colored band along the top of the screen. The band color is variable and will change between red, yellow and green as the system status changes.
The Menu area includes a list of commands, or choices that apply to the current selection. The status area provides information about various system events. A Security Home Screen or a “Dashboard Screen” is displayed whenever power is applied to the system. In addition the Green (Ready) LED will be lit.
Note: The displayed screens may vary slightly depending upon the devices and services that are installed in or connected to your system.
