About Programming
This section provides information on how programming is performed in this system. It will
enable you to understand how to enter and exit the Programming mode, and how to program
the data fields and the user-friendly Interactive Menu modes (
✱
56,
✱
58,
✱
80,
✱
81,
✱
82). We
therefore urge you to read and understand the following before proceeding with any
programming.
If RF zones or relays are used, the following applicable program fields
must be
enabled before
doing any zone programming:
✱
22 RF SYSTEM
✱
25 OUTPUT RELAY MODULE
It is possible to program the system at any time, even at the installer's premises prior to the
actual installation. Simply apply power temporarily to the control and then program the unit
as desired.
You cannot enter the Programming mode unless the security system is
disarmed
.
There are two programming modes: Data Field programming and Interactive (Menu) mode
programming. Data Field programming is used for setting various system options.
Interactive programming is used for programming zone information, programming relay
outputs, inserting alpha descriptors (or custom words), and enrolling transmitter serial
numbers.
To program the system, you must use a
6139 2-line alpha keypad connected to the keypad
terminals on the control (4, 5, 6, and 7).
Remember, the security system must be disarmed.
The alpha keypad need not remain in the system after programming.
Programming can also be performed remotely from the installer’s office/home, using an IBM
personal computer, a modem, and COMPASS downloading software. See the REMOTE
PROGRAMMING AND CONTROL (DOWNLOADING) section.
Entering the Program Mode
You may use one of the following methods:
a) Press the [
✱
] and [#] keys at the same time within 50 seconds after power is applied to the
control; or
b) After power-up, enter 4 1 1 1 (Installer code) + 8 0.
This method is disabled if you exit the Program mode using
✱
98 instead of
✱
99. See the
paragraph titled, "Exiting the Program Mode," later in this section.
