Simplex 4100 Operator's Manual

1-8
The action keys allow you to quickly perform common control functions. There are four
action keys on the display/action keypad:
• Disable/Enable
• Off/FLT TEST - Turning a point OFF
• On/ALM TEST - Turning a point ON
• Auto - Return a point to Auto Control
The ENTRY keypad is located to the far right on the operator interface panel and is concealed
by the access door. There are fourteen keys on this keypad as shown below.
These keys are used to enter passcodes, identifiers, or numeric data for the system. Whenever
the system expects numeric data input, the user is notified with a prompt. Numeric data input
requires an <ENTER> key press to complete the keypad entry. Numeric keys also double as
"prefix" keys. When entering a point, a prefix key must be used to identify how the entry is
made. Pressing the zone key (key 1) indicates that the next numeric entry is a zone number.
Pressing the address key (key 0) indicates that an address identifier is entered.
The <CLR> key is used to cancel operations and escape from menus and return to the System
Normal screen.
There are two keys – FAULT ACK and ISOLATE ACK – contained in the area labeled
FAULT/ISOLATE keys. These keys are used to acknowledge an unacknowledged fault or
isolate condition. If no unacknowledged fault or isolate conditions exist, these keys select
either the Fault or Isolate list.
