Master Keypad Operation

A "Master" keypad is one that reflects the status of the entire system
(Partitions 1-8) on its display. This is useful because it eliminates the need
for a security officer in a building to have to "log-on" to various partitions
from one partition's keypad to find out where an alarm has occurred.
A description of a typical display follows:
The status of each partition is directly below the partition number on the
display. Possible status indications include:
A = Armed Away
I = Armed Instant
B = Bypassed/Ready ✴ = Alarm/Trouble
To obtain more information regarding a particular partition, enter [ 7 ] +
[Partition No.] (i.e., 7 4). This will allow viewing only of that partition. In
order to affect that partition, the user must log on with a code that has access
to that partition. Also, in order for a user of any partition to log onto the
"Master" partition (Partition 9) to view the status of all partitions, and to
perform any functions at the Master keypad, that user must have access to
all partitions. Otherwise, access will be denied.
The following is an example of what would be displayed for a fault condition
on Zone 002 (Loading Dock Window) on Partition 1 (Warehouse) when
logging on from a keypad on Partition 9:
This is the normal display that appears at Partition 1's keypad(s). Pressing 7
will display:
