2.1 AUDITORY FEEDBACK (BEEP TONES)
When you enter information on your keypad, it will guide you with
beep tones to communicate acceptance or rejection of your entries.
Confirmation Beep: When an operation (i.e. arming/disarming) is
successfully entered or when the system switches to a new status/
menu, your keypad will emit intermittent beep tones
(“BEEP-BEEP-BEEP-BEEP-BEEP”).
Half Beep: When a step of an operation is successfully entered on
the keypad, it will emit short intermittent beep tones (“BEEP-BEEP-
BEEP”).
Rejection Beep: When reverting to a previous status, or when an
operation is incorrectly entered, your keypad will emit a continuous
beep (“BEEEEEEEEP”).
2.2 KEYPAD INDICATOR LIGHTS
For this keypad, the state of the “Status”, “AC”, and “Action” lights
(see figure 1 on page 4) represent a specific condition in your
system.
2.2.1 NORMAL MODE
If no actions are being performed on your keypad, it will remain in
Normal Mode. In Normal Mode the keypad will illuminate:
• The “AC” light if power is present.
• The numerical lights representing any open or tampered zones.
• The area lights if any areas are armed.
• The MEM action light if any alarms have occurred.
• The TRBL action light if any troubles are occurring.

6 User’s Manual
2.2.2 CONFIDENTIAL MODE
The installer can program your keypad not to display the status of
your system by changing the keypad from Normal Mode to
Confidential Mode. This occurs when your keypad has been inactive
for a period of time defined by your installer. In Confidential Mode all
the indicator lights will turn off. Depending on how your keypad was
programmed by your installer, you must either press a key or enter
your User Access Code to activate Normal Mode.
2.2.3 MULTIPLE-ACTION
If your installer has enabled this feature, your keypad will permit you
to complete more than one action without having to reenter your User
Access Code. Press the [Clear] key to exit the User Menu.
2.2.4 ILLUMINATION
You can adjust the illumination behind the keys to suit your
needs.
How do I adjust the illumination level?
1) Enter your [Access Code]. Your keypad will emit a Confirmation
Beep. The ACCESS action light will flash.
2) Press the [6] key. Your keypad will emit a Confirmation Beep, the
Prg action light will illuminate and the numerical light for the
current setting will illuminate.
3) Use the [U]and [V] keys to increase or decrease the
illumination. The range is between numerical light 1 to 8 (1 being
the lowest and 8, the brightest).
4) Press the [Enter] key to save and exit.

3.0 PARTITIONED SYSTEM
Your installer can set your keypad to recognize separate protected
areas. A separated system is called a partitioned system, which can
be useful in situations where shared security systems are more
practical. For example, a company that has both an office and a
warehouse area, can arm and disarm each area separately while
controlling access to each area. Therefore, one person may have
access to only one area, whereas another person may have access
to all areas. Access to the areas is determined by the User Access
Code.
3.1 AREA DISPLAY
The Area Status Display enables you to see the status of the
individual areas within a partitioned system (see section 3.0).
Depending upon which system you have, your installer can partition
the system into separate areas. Your keypad can be programmed to
display up to four areas. These areas are indicated as area lights A1
to A4.
Your keypad will emit a Confirmation Beep and remain in
that area’s status for two minutes then return to Normal or
Confidential Mode. You can perform the next desired action
from Area Status Display.
How do I see the status of the areas?
1) Enter your [Access Code].
2) Press the key corresponding to the area you want to view. Open
zones assigned to the area will illuminate and display their status
(figure 1 on page 4).
3) Press the [Clear] key to exit.

8 User’s Manual
In Area Status Display, the following will illuminate for the area
selected:
• The area lights (A1, A2, A3, and A4) if the associated area is
armed. For example, if you have selected area 3 and it is currently
armed, A3 will illuminate.
• The numerical light(s) representing any open zone(s) in a
corresponding area or areas.
• The MEM action light if any alarms have occurred.
• The TRBL action light if any troubles are occurring.
• The STAY action light if the area is Stay or Instant Armed.
• The FORCE action light if the area is Force Armed.
• The BYP action light if zones are bypassed.
4.0 ZONES
Zones are protected spaces within an area, which are monitored by
the alarm system. Zones can be protected by devices such as
magnetic door contacts and motion detectors.
4.1 ZONE DISPLAY
The numerical lights display the status of the individual zones within
a partitioned system. Your keypad can display up to 48 zones which
are displayed on numerical lights 1 to 48.
