Alarms
When an alarm occurs, both the keypad and external sounders will
sound, and the keypad will display the zone(s) causing the alarm. If
your system is connected to a central monitoring station, an alarm
message will also be sent. To stop the alarm sounding, simply disarm
the system.
Memory of Alarm
When an alarm condition occurs, the keypad displays the number(s)
of the zone(s) that caused the problem, and displays the type of alarm
(ex. FIRE, ALARM). It remains displayed until it is cleared by
disarming the system (see DISARMING THE SYSTEM section).
Speed Key (Macros)
The system can store a string of up to 32 keystrokes, which can be
activated anytime by simply pressing the “A, B, C, or D” keys. This
feature can be used to make it easy to perform a complicated
procedure (such as going to another partition to bypass a zone), or it
can be used to simplify an everyday, repeated procedure. Refer to the
SPEED KEY section for procedures for using this feature.
