Outputs
The system provides "outputs", which can control external equipment such
as lights, locking devices or other equipment, or communicate with an
Alarms Receiving Centre (ARC).
The installer can configure "User Defined" outputs, which you can switch on
or off from a keypad or remote control.
Keypads
Keypads normally provide the main interface between users and the alarm
system. They allow users to perform all functions, such as setting or
unsetting the system and accessing the user menu options. Each alarm
system can have one or more keypads up to a limit depending on the
control unit used.
The i-on Next Generation range of alarm systems supports several different
types and styles of keypad (Figure 2), including wired and radio (wireless)
keypads.
The keypads have keys to operate the system, and a two-line display to
show you status information or options. Keypads also contain a sounder,
which gives warning tones when the system is setting or unsetting, or when
an alarm is detected.
Users identify themselves to the system by entering their unique access
code at the keypad or by presenting a proximity tag (see page 8).
The following sections explain the main features of keypads.
