Output Control
Your Maxsys system comes with a feature called Command Outputs. These outputs will operate sets of lights,
door strikes and various other items depending on what you and your installer have decided to add to your
system. These outputs must be programmed by your installer. Up to eight command outputs can be added to
your system.
To activate the output using the Escort4580:

manual.

The system will then return to the list of [*] Key Functions.

required, enter your [Access Code] when prompted by the system.
Door Chime Feature
The door chime can be used to indicate the opening and closing of a door, such as a back door that is not always
in sight. The door chime feature will only work while the system is disarmed.
