USING THEVR43KEYPADSWITHPRESCO™
TheVR43 can be used to performall thefunctions ofa standard
PrescoPRE keypad. Theonlydifference inoperationis the use
ofthe #keyinstead of the Ekey.
The #keyis adualpurpose key.Whenit is pressedas the first
keyinacode sequenceit generates a#, whenpressed asa
subsequent keyitthen becomes the Ekey.
Shoulditbe necessaryto generate a#in themiddleof acode
sequence thenyoumustpressandholddownthe *key,press
the #key thenrelease both keys.
Touse thekeypadinPresco™mode, press thecodethenthe
#key.The keypad canbeset up to automaticallysendthe
