About Function Key Programming
The system provides the ability to program each of the four keypad function keys to perform one of
12 system operations. The end user can then activate the function by simply pressing and holding
the programmed key for 2 seconds. Typical functions (listed below) include single-button arming,
turning lights on/off, or single-button paging.
Programming Function Keys
Function key programming involves:
1. Assigning the function key number and partition;
2. Selecting the desired function for that key.
