PROMPT
EXPLANATION
Enter Zn Num.
(00 = Quit)
When all entries to be made for the zone at this time are complete, the next zone number can be
entered for programming, or zone programming can be ended by entering [0][0] as the next
"zone number".
NOTES:
1. In field
56
, at the summary line for each zone, the entered values can be checked. If it is
desired to change anything, press [#] to move to the previous entry. Press [#] a number of times
to move to earlier entries. Press [] to move to later entries again.
2. Zone entries can be reviewed by pressing [#][5][6]. Changes cannot be made here, so this is
safer for review. Enter the first zone number to be viewed and press [#]. To view each zone,
press [#] and the zone number will advance to the next programmed zone. When the end of the
list is reached, press [0][0] to exit. This method of exiting may also be done at any time during
the review.
01 Zone Type
Not Used 00
To either temporarily or permanently remove a zone from the system go into programming mode
and press [][5][6]. Enter the zone number and press []. At the “Zone Type” prompt, enter
[0][0] and []. This sets the type of the zone to “Not Used”. The next prompt will be "Delete
Zone?".
01 Delete Zone?
1 = Yes 0 = No
"Yes" will permanently remove the zone from the system, while "No" will disable it but retain all
data except the original zone type. You can then go back to this zone later and put back an
active Zone Type to re-enable it.
Field 82 Zone Programming
The alpha keypad used with the FA2000C can have a user-friendly English language description/location of all
protection zones and keypad emergency zones programmed into the system. Each description can be composed of a
combination of words (up to a maximum of 3) selected from a vocabulary of 249 words stored in memory (listed later in
this section). In addition, up to 5 installer-defined words can be added to those already in memory. Thus, when an
alarm or trouble occurs in a zone, an appropriate description for that zone's location will be displayed at the keypad.
NOTE: Alpha descriptor entry can be done locally at the alpha keypad or remotely using downloading software. The
alpha keypad procedure is described below.
The descriptor can be entered when the zone is being defined in field 56 but we recommend that it be done in
field 82.
There are two methods that can be used to enter alpha descriptors via the alpha keypad. The easiest method requires
that you simply enter the 3-digit reference number for the desired word(s). The 3-digit number for each word is provided
in the alpha vocabulary list. An alternate method allows you to pick the desired words by scrolling through the alpha
vocabulary list.
Enter the programming mode and press 56. The following prompt displays:
PROMPT
EXPLANATION
Program Alpha ?
0=No, 1=Yes 00
Press 82. The “Program Alpha ?” prompt will appear.
Custom Words ?
0=No, 1=Yes 00
Press “1” (Yes). The “Custom Words” prompt will appear.
Press “0” (No). The system will then automatically display the descriptor for zone 1.
NOTE: The procedure for adding custom words to the built-in vocabulary will be found later
under “Adding Custom Words”.
Default Descriptor [
ZN 01 ZONE 01
If a descriptor was not entered previously for zone 1, the default descriptor for zone 1 will be dis-
played.
NOTE: This is a “summary mode”, and no entries can be made. Entries can be made only when
the display contains a flashing cursor, which signifies the “entry mode”.
