Operating your system using the Gateway Touchpad
The Gateway Touchpad is designed to operate your basic security features. It also lets you
quickly see your system status by which items on the Touchpad are lit.
The Status Shield and arming options are always lit and color coded to show system status at a
glance. Emergency is also always lit, so it is easy to find, when needed. The other options on the
touchpad light only when needed.
System Status Shield
The Status Shield indicates system status with these behaviors:
Green, steady
Green Flash
Red, steady
Red, blinking slowly
Red, blinking rapidly
White, steady

Emergency
System Alert
If the system experiences a condition such as AC power loss, connectivity or a communication
problem, the Alert blinks.
Press
and the Gateway announces the system Alert condition and suggested actions.
NOTE:
If the Gateway loses AC power, Alert begins to blink slowly after 15 minutes on
battery backup and all other lights on the Gateway are off. In this situation, although
the Emergency light is off, Emergency functions remain available.
