The following conventions are used in the manual for the sake of simplicity:
This is the LCD with the displayed message.
Unless otherwise specified, the same message is shown on the touchscreen keypad.
, , , , …
This is the equivalent key to be pressed on the keypad.
<Master code>
<User code>
<Installer code>
<Technical Manager code>
This indicates the code to be entered using the keypad.
<Master / User code>
This means that either code may be entered on the keypad indifferently.
H24
This means that the described function or service is always active.
Pay attention to the following symbols:
This symbol indicates an important warning.
This symbol indicates advice.
This symbol indicates EN50131 grade 3 compliance.
The compliance of the system as a whole is equal to the minimum certification of the installed devices and of the
enabled functions.
This symbol indicates EN50131 grade 2 compliance.
The compliance of the system as a whole is equal to the minimum certification of the installed devices and of the

1 - CONTROL DEVICES
This chapter contains a description of the devices which allow to access the alarm system locally, to arm or disarm the system, to
program and to interact with it.
The function of the various keys and the information supplied by the LEDs and on the display are explained for keypads.
The information supplied by the LEDs is provided for readers.

1.1.2 LEDs and status icons
Figure 2 - Display and status LEDs on KP500D/N and KP500DV/N keypads
The LEDs on the keypads indicate system status and alarms. Available information is shown in Table 3 - LEDs and icon indication of
KP500D/N and KP500DV/N keypads.
The amount of displayed information depends on system status level (armed or disarmed), the EN50131 grade set during programming
and the access level (see paragraph 2.1 System access codes). Paragraph 1.1.2.1 Use of LEDs with EN50131 grade 3 lists the
information available in the various cases.

1) The indicated failures and warnings are: PSTN line, power overvoltage, power low voltage, battery (inefficient or low battery),
system bus communication (devices not interfacing with control panel), control panel input and expansion +V voltage, control panel
condition (burglar, input inhibition or isolation, tampering).
2) The indicated alarm conditions are burglar and warning. Technological indications are also provided (emergency, fire,
technological 1, technological 2, technological 3).
3) The indicated tampering conditions are: control panel tamper, control panel SAB input, expansion SAB input, tamper input,
imbalance of one of the inputs specialised as balanced or double balance, attempt to use a wrong access code or key (repeated
21 times).
4) Information is limited to the partitions associated to the keypad only. The status of any configured partitions which are not
associated to the keypad cannot be determined.

1.1.2.1 Use of LEDs with EN50131 grade 3
The keypad LED indications which are visible without needing to enter a valid code depend on the EN50131 grade (Mode 3, Mode 2 or
Mode 0) set during programming.
IMPORTANT ! By setting Mode 0 the system will lose EN50131 compliance it potentially had before.
Behaviour in Mode 2 is two-fold: all LED indications are visible when the alarm system is disarmed, while only the power, timed
programmer and system status indications appear when the system is armed (the other LED indications may be viewed by entering a
valid code). This mode is EN50131 grade 2 compliant.
The alarm system is EN50131 grade 3 compliant in Mode 3. LED indications are not always visible and depend on system status
(armed or disarmed) and whether a valid access code is entered. The indications shown refer to the partitions associated to the keypad
only.
IMPORTANT ! Mode 3 is not available for the MP500/4N control panel because this device is EN50131 grade 2, and not
grade 3, compliant.
Table 4 - LED indication visibility of KP500D/N and KP500DV/N keypads complying with EN50131 grade 3 shows how the LEDs behave
on the keypad in Mode 3.
Enter a valid code to see details on the indications.
All indications can be deleted using the Installer or Technical Manager codes. Only burglar, power failure and communication failure
indications can be deleted with the Master or User codes.

The alarm system is EN50131 grade 3 compliant in Mode 3. LED and icon indications are not always visible and depend on system
status (armed or disarmed) and whether a valid access code is entered. The indications shown refer to the partitions associated to the
keypad only.
IMPORTANT! Mode 3 is not available for the MP500/4N control panel because this device is EN50131 grade 2, and not grade
3, compliant.

2 - SYSTEM ACCESS
This chapter contains a description of the available system access codes, functions and programming.
2.1 SYSTEM ACCESS CODES
Access to given system functions is permitted according to the access code type (Master, User, Installer or Technical Manager). The
available codes are:
Master code. This code is always enabled and is the only code authorised to enable other users, keys, timed programming and
remote access. It can be used to reset all the other access codes to the factory default (useful if the changed access code is
forgotten).
Installer code. This code must be enabled each time by the Master code and is automatically deactivated when a new valid
code is entered or a valid key is used. This is to program the system and for maintenance. This code is used by the installer. It
can be used to reset all the other access codes to the factory default (useful if the changed access code is forgotten).
IMPORTANT! The installer code will be automatically deactivated if any users enter their code while the installer code is
enabled. The same will occur if an electronic or proximity key is used.
User code. This code must be enabled by the Master code and will remain valid until it is deactivated by the Master code by a
timed programmed control. This code is used by users for normal operations: arming and disarming the system, displaying
system status, reading event log and changing the access code.
Technical Manager code. This code must be enabled by the Master code and is automatically deactivated when a new valid
code is entered or a valid key is used. It allows to access a limited number of system configuration functions. It can be used to
reset all the other access codes to the factory default (useful if the changed access code is forgotten).
IMPORTANT! The Technical Manager code will be automatically deactivated if any user enters their code while the Technical
Manager code is enabled. The same will occur if an electronic or proximity key is used.
Each access code is freely programmable with a variable length from a minimum of four to a maximum of six digits. Each user can
change their access code at will.
IMPORTANT! Trough the use of the web server only 6-digit codes are allowed.
IMPORTANT! Any access code shorter than six digits will cancel the EN50131 grade 3 compliance of the entire burglar alarm
system.
If there are no other limiting factors, five or six digit access codes allow EN50131 grade 2 compliance.
Four digit codes will cancel EN50131 compliance.
ADVICE: All users, including the Master and Installer, should change their code before commissioning the system.
Always press to confirm the entered access code to access menus or functions.
On MP500/4N, MP500/8 and MP500/16 control panels, starting from control panel SW version 1.01 and starting from keypad SW
version 1.03, if the hold-up function has been enabled (see paragraph 2.1.4 How to enable the hold-up function), when user code is
modified automaticaly, the system will also assing a code for the hold-up function which is the same as the chosen one + 1 (for
example, if 789456 has been chosen, the hold-up code will be 789457).
IMPORTANT! Enabling the hold-up function will cancel EN50131 compliance.
