Using Data Field Program Mode
Data Field Program Mode is the program Mode whereby many system options are
programmed. The field numbers on the program form show the number of entries required
for each field. When an entry is completed, the keypad beeps three times and advances to
the next field. At this point, you can either make the required entry in the new field, or press
[∗] + the next field number you want to program.
There are several "question and answer" modes, which we call "Menu" Modes, that can be
accessed once Data Field Program Mode has been entered. These modes prompt the user for
information, and for this reason, a 2-line alpha keypad (6139) is required.
The factory-loaded defaults (*97) enable keypad addresses 00-03 only. A keypad set to one of
these addresses must be used to program the system.
Entering Data Field Programming Mode
Enter Program Mode using either method A or B:
A. Press both the [∗] and [#] keys at the same time within 30 seconds after power is
B. Enter the [Installer Code] + [8] + [0] + [0] + [0] keys. The factory installer code

done, programming can only be accomplished via the downloading software.
