Status Window
A Status Window directly beneath the time and date includes an Icon which
will be either green, yellow, or red, depending on the M1’s status.
A text description of the current status appears on the top line.
The bottom line of text alternates between displaying keypad area, current
trouble and/or custom message.
When the M1 status is “Not Ready” or “Ready Force” the total number of
violated zones will be displayed on the right side of the status window.
The top line of the Main screen displays the current time and date from the
M1 Control. Actual display may vary slightly from that shown.
Main Screen

M1KPNAV Navigator Touchscreen Keypad - User Guide
Page 5
View Violated Zones
To view zones that are violated (not ready) press the button labeled “Violated
Zones” on the top right corner of the button arrangement. The display will
begin with the first violated zone. The Up and Down buttons that appear in
the Status Window can be used to move between zones.
The Main Screen contains a numeric entry keypad along with several
feature buttons, some of which are not found on other Elk M1 Keypads.
EXIT - Arming in the “Away” Mode
Away mode arming is the highest arm level, intended for use when the
premises is unoccupied. Both perimeter and interior zones will be armed.
The Ready to Arm or Ready to Force Arm must be present for the alarm to
be armed.
1. Enter a User code or press Exit (Quick Arm must enable by Installer).
2. Display will change to Armed Away.
The exit tone will begin to countdown.
4. Leave the premises immediately while the exit delay is active.
5. At the end of the exit delay the system will be fully armed Away.
During the final 10 seconds of the exit delay the exit tone will beep faster,
warning that time is nearly expired. If you feel that you will NOT be able to get
out and close the exit door within the remaining time it is recommended that
you start over by returning to the keypad, disarm the system, and arm again.
EXIT - Arming in the “Vacation” Mode
Vacation mode is a second level of Away mode and is primarily useful to
activate energy saving automation features when the building is not occu-
pied for an extended time. After arming, press the EXIT button again to
change the armed mode to vacation.

M1KPNAV Navigator Touchscreen Keypad - User Guide
Page 6
STAY - Arming in the “Stay” Mode
Stay mode arming is used when the premises is occupied. All perimeter
doors and windows are armed, and all interior zones are excluded.
1. Enter a User code or press the STAY key (Quickarm). **
2. Display will change to Armed Stay. Exit tone is silent during Stay arming.
3. All interior zones will be excluded in the Stay mode.
Exit and Entry zones will still have their respective delay times.
** Additional presses of the Stay key (while the exit delay is still active) may be
allowed to switch to alternate modes of Stay. In some instances this may be
allowed even while the system is armed.
Armed Stay Instant = Deletes the Entry Delay on entry/exit zones.
Armed Night = Adds protective zones designated as Night Zones.
Armed Night Instant = Adds the Night zones AND deletes Entry Delay.
** Auto Stay Arming
There is an option which allows the system to automatically switch from Away
mode to Stay mode when no perimeter delayed doors are opened during the exit
delay countdown time. Essentially, this auto stay option makes sure the alarm is
armed in the stay mode if there is no detection of anyone leaving the building.
** These options must be enabled by the Installer.
F Keys - Special Function Keys
There are 6 special function “F” keys which your Installer may enable for
purposes as emergency panic alarm, automation event triggers (lights,
outputs), and more. F1 and F2 are on the Main screen. Pressing “Display
F=Keys” will present all 6 “F” keys together on an extended main screen.
Each individual key may be programmed to allow activation via a single
press, or to require double press (2 quick presses in a row). Double press
helps prevent accidental activation. If a key is set to require double press
the screen will display “Press F_ Again To Activate” immediately after the
first press. This times out after ~8 seconds if no 2nd press occurs.
F1 FIRE - If enabled by the Installer this key will trip a fire alarm panic. An
Alarm Monitoring center can be contacted if you subscribed to monitoring.
F2 POLICE - If enabled by the Installer this key will trip a police panic alarm.
The Installer can enable this to either be silent or audible. An Alarm
Monitoring center can also be contacted IF you subscribed to monitoring.

Display “Show” F Keys
Pressing this button will swap the display to the extended Main screen. All 6
of the “F” keys are available on this screen.
BYPASS - Excluding Zone(s)
Bypass permits zones to be excluded (ignored) by the control during the
current armed period. Bypassed zones cannot trip an alarm. Bypasses on
zones are automatically canceled when the control is disarmed.
1. Press the Bypass key PLUS the number of the zone to be bypassed.
2. Press the Bypass key again.
3. The display will indicate whenever one or more zones are bypassed.
Note: Only zones programmed as bypassable may be bypassed.
Bypassing may also require entry of a user code.
CHIME - Annunciating Zone Activations
Chime produces an audible alert when selected doors, windows, or other
zones are opened (violated). This is ideal for annunciating when someone
enters or leaves the premises through a normal doorway, but it may also be
used to annunciate abnormal access to restricted areas.
There are 4 selections or levels of Chime: Tone, Voice, Tone/Voice, and Off.
1. Press the Chime key one time to select the Chime Tone mode.
2. Press again within ~30 seconds to select Chime Voice mode.
3. Press again within ~30 seconds to select Chime Tone/Voice mode.
4. Pressing again within ~30 seconds will turn Chime mode Off.
Note: Only the installer has the ability to program which doors, windows,
etc. (zones) will be included in the Chime mode.
Disarming and Resetting the System
When you enter the premises through one of the Entry delayed zones the
system should sound a continuous entry delay tone and display a count
down of the entry delay time.
1. Proceed directly to the keypad and enter a valid user code.
2. The entry delay tone should stop and the system will be disarmed.

M1KPNAV Navigator Touchscreen Keypad - User Guide
Page 8
What to do if the Alarm is Sounding
1. Proceed directly to the Keypad and enter your user code.
2. The alarm and/or keypad tone should silence.
3. The System Armed display should disappear.
4.If the alarm was accidental, contact the Central Monitoring Center to
avoid a false dispatch of the authorities.
Note: False alarms often occur when someone enters the building and
doesn’t enter their User Code prior to the entry delay time expiring. The
display shows the alarm type and first zone that tripped.
Acknowledging an Alarm
After an alarm has been silenced by a valid user code, the display will
continue to show the alarm type and zone until the Clear key is pressed or
until a valid user code is entered a second time. This “Acknowledgment” is
so that the user sees what caused the alarm after things are quieted.
To acknowledge the alarm and reset the system:
1. Press the Clear key or enter your user code again.
2. The alarm/condition will clear from the keypad display.
Troubles
There are numerous trouble conditions which the system may display:
AC Power Failure
Low Backup Battery
Telephone Line Fault
Fire Alarm Trouble
Missing Keypad, Expander (Zone or Output)
Communications Fail
Troubles are annunciated by an intermittent beeping from the keypad and a
display of the Trouble condition(s). The beeping may be silenced by
pressing the Clear key but the trouble must be acknowledged before other
keypad operation may continue.
1. To acknowledge a trouble condition enter a user code.
2. Until the trouble condition is resolved, the keypad will momentarily
flash the condition along with the normal keypad information. If a new
Trouble should occur, the keypad beeping will resume.

Automation

M1KPNAV Navigator Touchscreen Keypad - User Guide
Page 11
Automation - Task Activation
A Task is an M1 feature that is similar in operation to a “macro” found in a
word processor or spreadsheet program. It allows a series of automation
steps or processes to be activated by a single button press. Each task may
have a name such as: Water the Lawn (to turn on electric water valves),
Welcome Home (to turn on a series of Lights or adjust the temperature).
The Navigator Task Activation screen can display up to 8 task buttons at one
time. Each task button displays the task number with or without a name.
A scroll bar along the right side as well at the Previous and Next buttons
may be used to move around to additional pages of tasks.
A single press of a task button is all that is required to activate that task. The
button will momentarily light up when touched, however the task buttons
will never be illuminated when viewed. This is due to the fact that a task
does not have a state of On or Off, only momentary.
NOTE: The installer may have tagged a task to “not show” on the Task
Activation screen. In reality the task button will still be shown on the screen,
but will be greyed out to indicate that it cannot be manually activated. These
would typically be used for special internal functions.
To return to the Main Menu press the Menu button. To return completely
back to the Main screen press the red close button on the top right of the
screen.
