Area Search is ,(*)-End
3. Use the RAS keypad to enter a search character or string, as described in
“Entering text via RAS” below. When each character is displayed, press
[ENTER] to move to the next position. When finished, press [*] [*] to list all
areas that contain the string.
For example, search for “EAST ” to find all with area names beginning with
that text (including “East wing foyer”). Search is not case-sensitive.
4. When the list of areas displays, you can press the area number, and then
press [ENTER] to arm only that area. Alternatively, press [0] [ENTER] to arm
all of the found areas.
5. When finished arming areas, press [ENTER] to exit the display.
Entering text via RAS
A RAS keypad can be used to create or edit text, such as user names. When
required, the keypad automatically changes to text edit mode, where numbered
keys can produce both text and numerals, as listed in Table 1 on page 10. For
example, press [2] for “D”, press [2] [2] for “E”, and so on.
Press [ENTER] to save the first value, and move to the second value.
Alternatively, if the RAS has up and down arrow keys, you can press an up or
down key to save and move between the first and second values.
When each required character is displayed, press [ENTER] to move to the next
position. When finished, press [MENU*] to save the name, and press [MENU*] a
second time to exit. In this option, [ENTER] has no other function than to move
the cursor.
Note: If you make a change, then only the letters to the left-hand side of the
cursor will be saved (the cursor must be to the right-hand side of the name when
you press [MENU*] to save).
