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