Notes: Since each keypad typically
pertains to a separate, privately-owned
dwelling, any arming changes should
typically be coordinated with the occupant.
Prior to v4.31, these buttons were 'display-
only'. This feature requires panel firmware
4.25, and
'Panel Control & Status' operator
permission.
- Alarms: This area shows any alarms
for the suite/facility (fire, tripped
sensors, or someone tampering with
the keypad). The "Siren Type" is
indicated as well (None, Sonalert,
Siren, or Fire).

- [Silence]
(V4.31): This allows
silencing an alarm for a selected
keypad/suite.

- Input Points: This area lists the suite security
keypad's input points, and shows the status of
each one (i.e., whether or not each sensor has
been 'tripped').
Note: The number of input points supported depends
on the type of suit security keypad installed.
- Panic Keys: This area lists the suite security
keypad's panic keys, and shows the status of
each one (i.e., whether or not any panic keys
have been pressed).
Note: The number of panic keys supported depends
on the type of suit security keypad installed. For
example, 2-zone keypads support panic key #1 only
(triggered by pressing and *).
- Output Points: This area lists the suite security
keypad's outputs, and shows the status of each
one (i.e., whether or not any of the outputs have
been fired).
Note: The number of programmable output points
supported depends on the type of suit security keypad
installed.
-----------------------------------------------

you select a suite security keypad to view
diagnostic information. This area shows a

the name/description of the suite/facility as
defined under 'Configuration'.

pertaining to the selected suite
(version number,
maximum and present baud rate, etc.)
.

the selected keypad.

information pertaining to the module bus
communications success rate with this device

values to zero).

area. Related Topic
