About The Keypads
General
IMPORTANT:
If the keypad beeps rapidly upon entering the
premises, it indicates that an alarm has occurred during your
absence. LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT THE POLICE
from a safe location nearby.
NOTE: If you have a Symphony (Advanced User Interface) and/or
TeleSmart connected to your system, refer to the Symphony and
TeleSmart User Guides for operating instructions for those units.
Your keypads allow you to control all system functions. The keypads feature
a telephone style (digital) keypad and a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) that
shows the nature and location of all occurrences. Keypad display back
lighting is programmable to always stay on or to light only when a key is
pressed, then turn off a few minutes later.
The keypads also feature a built-in sounder that will sound during alarms
and troubles. It will also "beep" during certain system functions, such as
during entry/exit delay times, during CHIME mode, and when depressing
keys to perform system functions (to acknowledge the key press). These
sounds can be optionally suppressed in some of your keypads (so as not to
disturb other users of the system). Ask your installer if this has been done.
The Alpha Keypad
Alpha keypads feature a 2-line, 32 character alphanumeric Liquid Crystal
Display (LCD) that can display system messages in user-friendly English.
Abbreviated user's instructions can also be displayed (see Self Help
paragraph in the SYSTEM OVERVIEW section). These keypads can also be
programmed with custom zone descriptors.
