PROGRAMMING (OPTIONAL)
Introduction
The Program Mode (optional) is used
to customize User Codes. Access to the
Program Mode requires a special User
Code, therefore not all users may have the
ability to program.
Note:
• If the system contains more than
one keypad, only the keypad desig-
nated “No. 1” may be used for pro-
gramming (if in doubt which is No. 1,
ask your installer).
• Operation of the keypad buttons in
the Program Mode is different from
that for normal operation. Refer to
the accompanying diagram for key-
pad functions in the Program Mode.
• If the selected function requires
more than one screen, scroll the dis-
play using the A button.
• While in the Program Mode, the
ARMED and STATUS lights remain
off and burglar and fire alarm func-
tions are disabled.
• If the keypad detects no activity in
the Program Mode for more than 4
minutes, a tone will sound; to silence
the tone, press the G button.
• The programmed code or descrip-
tion will not be permanently stored
until you press the Jbutton.
• To exit the Program Mode, press
the C button.
Programming User Codes
Do not attempt to program a code
containing any blank spaces between dig-
its. In selecting your codes, do not pro-
gram repetitive numbers (1111), consec-
utive numbers (1234), your birth date,
address, or other obvious combinations.
Choose a code of up to six digits (a
minimum of four is recommended, and
required in UL installations).
The User Program Mode is accessed
from the Function Mode as follows:
1. Enter your code, then press the
A button to enter the Function Mode.
2. Answer NO (press the F button)
until “17” (Activate Program) is displayed,
then press the YES (E) button.
Note: If you pass “17”, press the B
button to scroll back.
3. The display will scroll the following:
“P” (Program mode); 4 digits identifying
software versions; then “UP” (User Pro-
gram). The keypad will continue to flash
while programming user codes.
4. Set the cursor to the user number
with the the A button.
5. Using the number buttons, enter a
User Number as a two-digit number (enter
1-9 as “01”-“09”).
