Panic Keys; Speed Key [D] (Macros) - ADEMCO VISTA-32FB Installation And Setup Manual

Panic Keys

There are three panic key pairs (shown below) that, if programmed, can be used to manually
initiate alarms and send a report to the central station. Each key pair can be individually
programmed for 24-Hour Silent, Audible or Auxiliary (Emergency) responses, as well as Fire.
The panic function is activated when the appropriate key pair is pressed at the same time.
The panic functions are identified by the system as follows:
For the panic functions to be of practical value, the system must be connected to a central station.

Speed Key [D] (Macros)

The system supports up to 32 Speed Key (macro) commands. A Speed Key command is a
series of keystrokes stored in the system memory and activated when a programmed lettered
key is pressed. Each Speed Key command can include 32 keystrokes. Typical Speed Key
functions include:
•
Arming sequences that involve first bypassing certain zones before arming.
•
Seldom-used but repeatable sequences.
•
Relay activation sequences.
Lettered keys A-B-C can be assigned a specific Speed Key function by entering a Speed Key
number (1-32) in field 1 26.
Programming Speed Key Sequence
To program a macro, enter your [User Code] + [#] + [D]. The following appears:
ENTER SPEED KEY #
01-32
Enter the 2-digit Speed Key number (01-32) being defined and press [ ]. Enter up to 32
keystrokes. A Speed Key sequence can include different commands. Press the D key to
separate different commands.
For example, the user may want to perform the following sequence:
Desired function
GOTO Partition 2
Bypass Zones 10 and 11
Arm in Maximum Mode
Return to Partition 1
To program that Speed Key sequence, type the following :
PANIC Displayed as Zone
+ 1
# + 3
+ #
00=QUIT
2 D 6010011 D D *1 D D

For alpha keypads, these panic keys
can also be programmed with an alpha
