How to Clear/Hide a Control Panel Message
The icon alerts the user to a control panel message. When a Control Panel Message is displayed, the user has two options. The
user can clear the message immediately or minimize the window and clear it at a later time.
To Clear/Hide the Control Panel Message, do the following:
1. To clear, press CLEAR.
2. Enter your 4-digit user code or:
3. To hide, press HIDE to clear the Control
Panel Message later.
Once your user code is accepted, the Control Panel Message is cleared.
If the alarm is still present, press CLEAR again and then enter your
user
code again.
Press the HIDE icon to address the condition later.
Advanced System Features
While most of the commonly used security functions are available from the touchscreen’s advanced user interface, there are some less
used, advanced features that can either be accessed through Console Emulation mode on the touchscreen or a standard alpha
keypad. To use features not supported by the touchscreen, refer to the system's user guide.
Console Emulation Mode
Console Emulation Mode allows you to use a touchscreen interface just as you would a regular system touchscreen. All commands
shown in Console Emulation mode can also be executed from a standard alpha keypad.
Notes:
• Using Console Emulation Mode to enter GOTO commands is not recommended. Unsatisfactory operation may result from issuing
GOTO commands in Console Emulation mode.
• Two-icon Panics (1 & *, 3 & # and * & #) do not function in Console Emulation Mode. The A, B, C, and D icons do function if
programmed as Panic keys. Check with your system installer for details.
• On commercial systems with alphanumeric keypads ONLY:
o Pressing a key for 5 seconds calls up Help information about functions associated with that key.
o Pressing the
*
key for 5 seconds displays information on zone descriptors.
