About the System
Introduction
Congratulations on your ownership of a 6290W Touchscreen Home Security System.With clear, simple controls on a Touchscreen
interface, the 6290W Touchscreen is both easy to learn and easy to use.
System Interface
Equipped with web-hosting capability, the 6290W Touchscreen can be retrofitted into home electronics devices and systems without
interference from common household wireless electronics.
Features
The 6290W Touchscreen is used for quick and easy security system operation of the home environment.
In addition, this system offers you burglary protection and may provide fire, carbon monoxide and emergency protection. To realize the full
potential of the system, it is important that you feel comfortable operating it.
Your system may consist of one or more of the following:
•6290W Touchscreen (white housing)
•One or more other touchpads for system control
•Various sensors for perimeter and interior burglary protection, plus a selected number of strategically placed smoke, carbon
monoxide or combustion detectors
•Lighting/output devices.
The system uses microcomputer technology to monitor all zones, and provides appropriate information for display on the touchscreen
and/or other touchscreens used with the system. Your system may also have been programmed to automatically transmit alarm or status
messages over the phone lines or wirelessly over GSM to a central alarm monitoring station.
Navigating through the 6290W Touchscreen
Navigation through the 6290W Touchscreen typically begins from the Home/Security screen. This is the main default screen (starting
screen) and is the first screen you see when you power up and initialize the keypad. It is from this screen that you select from the main
menu. Once you have made your selection, you can navigate through various sub-menus by selecting graphical icons to perform the
function you desire.
