ABOUT THE TOUCHPADS
General
Your touchpads allow you to control all system functions. The touchpads feature a telephone
style (digital) touchpad and a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) which shows the nature and location
of all occurrences.
The touchpads also feature a built-in sounder which will sound during alarms and troubles.
The touchpads also "beep" during certain system functions, such as during entry/exit delay
times, in CHIME mode, and when depressing any of the keys (to acknowledge the key press).
IMPORTANT: If the touchpad beeps rapidly upon entering the premises, it indicates that
an alarm has occurred during your absence and an intruder may still be on the premises.
LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT THE POLICE from a nearby safe location.
There are two basic types of touchpads Ð an English display touchpad and an Custom
English display touchpad (both described below). English display and Custom English
display touchpads are functionally the same, even though they have different types of
displays. Both types of touchpads are shown on page 12.

2-line Custom English Display touchpads feature a 2-line, 32-character alphanumeric LCD
which can display system messages in friendly English. These touchpads can also be
programmed with custom zone descriptors. To access the keys on the touchpad, simply open
the swing-down door.

English Display touchpads are functionally identical to Custom English Display touchpads, but
the LCD display uses pre-designated words to identify the nature and location of
occurrences. To access the keys on the touchpad, simply open the swing-down door.
