About the TouchCenter
Introduction
Congratulations on your ownership of a Honeywell 6280 Series TouchCenter keypads which combines security and
home automation. You've made a wise decision in choosing it, for it represents the latest in security protection
technology today.
This security system offers you burglary protection and provides 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:
•6280S (black/silver housing)
•6280W (white housing)
•One or more other keypads for security 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 TouchCenter and/or other keypads used with the system. Your system may also have been programmed to
automatically transmit alarm or status messages over the phone lines to a central alarm monitoring station.
The TouchCenter Interface
The 6280 Series graphical touch-screen keypads are Advanced User Interface (AUI) devices, which combine control
of your security system, multi-media and premises lighting. With clear, simple controls on a touch-screen interface,
the TouchCenter is both easy to learn and easy to use.
As a security and home-automation interface, the TouchCenter may be accessed for:
•Quick and easy security system operation
•Multi-Media operation
•Message storage and retrieval
•Home output control
Navigating through the TouchCenter
Navigation through the TouchCenter typically begins from the "Home" screen. This is the TouchCenter’s main
default screen (starting screen) and is the first screen you see when the TouchCenter is powered up and initialized.
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 touching graphical icons or icons to perform the function you desire.

About Your Home Screen
Your "Home" screen is the gateway to your TouchCenter
Keypad. From this screen you can:
•control your security system,
•control your multi-media applications, and
•control the premises lighting.
Your "Home" screen is displayed most of the time and is
customizable via the Multi-Media Application.

Multi-Media Application
The Picture/Video feature allows you to display personal photos (in a slide show format) and play video files via the
external SD/SDHC card.
It is recommended that you use the SD/SDHC card supplied with the keypad.
In everyday handling, memory cards can become susceptible to malfunction and/or failure due to electrostatic
discharges and the information on the card may be lost. In some extreme cases, the keypad may need to be reset.
NOTE: Honeywell is not responsible for any loss of personal information (files, messages, photos, etc.)
Memory Card Insertion
Insert the memory card (SD/SDHC Card) as shown.
Tips for proper memory card handling:
•Avoid touching the contacts on the card
•Quit the slide show application before removing the memory card.
