Displaying input names
Input devices are identified by a number from 1 to 1008 and (optionally) a name
programmed by the installer. The name is useful to determine the location of an
input device that is unsealed or in alarm.
Your Challenger system may be programmed to display inputs by their number,
along with their name (Figure 3 below).
Figure 3: Input name displayed
Unsealed On 6, Front Door Contact
NEXT or ENTER
Alternatively, your system might be programmed to display a list of input
numbers (Figure 4 below).
Figure 4: Input numbers displayed
Unsealed On 6, 7, 9
NEXT or ENTER
In this case, enter an input number, and then press [ENTER] to display the
input’s name.
Selecting areas by searching
Areas are identified by a number from 1 to 99 and (optionally) a name
programmed by the installer.
When arming or disarming the system, you may want to select a specific area
instead of selecting all areas. Some RAS models (such as the CA111x series)
support area search mode to help you quickly find areas by name.
For example to use a CA1116 RAS (see Figure 1 on page 4) to arm an area
named “East wing foyer”:
1. Press nnnn (where nnnn is your code), and then press [ENTER] or [ON]. Any
disarmed areas that are assigned to your alarm group are listed.
2. Press the area search mode key (Figure 1, item 3) to begin area search.
