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 the premises IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT
THE POLICE from a safe location nearby.
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 LCD that can
display system messages in user-friendly English. Abbreviated user
instructions can also be displayed (see Self Help paragraph in the SYSTEM
OVERVIEW section). These keypads can also be programmed with custom
zone descriptors.
NOTE: There may be multiple keypads on your system. One, the primary
keypad, will continue to operate under faulted conditions.
