EXPERIENCE AND INSTALLATION EQUIPMENT. THE UNIT IS DESIGNED TO BE PROGRAMMED USING AN IBM-COMPATIBLE COMPUTER WITH NAPCO PCD3000 SOFTWARE. AFTER PROGRAMMING, BE SURE TO RUN THE PCD3000 ERROR-CHECK UTILITY TO GUARD AGAINST PROGRAMMING CONFLICTS FOR THE TYPE OF SERVICE SELECTED FOR THE INSTALLATION.
Conventional LEDs and a sounder are also provided for annunciation. Data may be quickly and easily downloaded to the control panel using a PC-compatible computer with Napco's PCD3000 Quickloader software and PCI2000 computer interface. Or, the panel may be programmed using the keypad in its secondary mode of operation.
