Autonomous Keypad Commands and User Prompts
In most operations, the keypad will only send key presses to the panel and
in response the panel will update the display, LED and tone annunciations
as needed to refl ect the current state of the system.
When doing an initial installation or manually activated program updates
the keypad will function autonomously and provide user prompts without
intervention by the panel.
Entering autonomous keypad command operation: When the keypad
detects the long press *, it will display the following user prompt on the
2-line LCD display:
SPECIAL COMMAND
<-- TOGGLE CHIME -->
A long press * key press message is sent to the panel at this time. At
this point, the panel may respond to disallow the operation of special
commands if special commands are disabled. The keypad will display the
reason the command is disallowed and abort the autonomous command
mode:
SPECIAL COMMANDS DISABLED
Alarm history
The alarm history command is serviced by the ARM DISPLAY message
packet. Up to 5 alarm events are sent from the panel to the keypad in a
single message packet. These events are displayed one event at a time
on the LCD. The user may scroll through these events by pressing the
keys. Pressing OK exits the display (and autonomous command
operation).
Display example with 3 alarm events:
07/22/11 1:55PM
ZONE 32 ALARM -->
07/20/11 11:55AM
<-- ZONE 21 ALARM -->
