4.5 Global and Partition Keypad Operation
A global keypad will display limited information until a partition
is selected: the Trouble light will turn on if a trouble condition is
present, and the Armed light will turn on if all the partitions are
armed. To select a partition the user must press and hold one of
keys [1] - [8] for two seconds, depending on which partition they
want to access. (e.g. press and hold [2] for Partition 2). The key-
pad will then display the status of the selected partition and
allow normal operation.
A Partition keypad will display the status of the Partition it is
assigned to. A user with access to more than one partition may
temporarily assign the keypad to another partition to gain
access. To do this the user must first press and hold the [#] key
for two seconds. The keypad will go blank. The user must then
press and hold one of keys [1] - [8] for two seconds, depending
on which partition they want to access (e.g. press and hold [2]
for Partition 2). The keypad will then display the status of the
selected partition and allow normal access.
