The system can be programmed using either of two methods:
• Directly using FALCDKP keypad.
NOTE: If there are no FALCDKP keypads connected to the system, keypad address 8 is
automatically enabled. This allows an FALCDKP to be temporarily connected for
programming the system.
• Remotely using the PC DOWNLOADING Software (Compass Downloader).

System Default

The system is shipped from the factory with specific default values suitable for a typical
installation. If the default values are suitable for your installation, then programming can
be simplified. The default values are listed with each programming question.
To reset the system to the default values, do one of the following:
A. Press the [1] and [3] keys at the same time while in the programming mode.
B. Use Installer Mode 5 (press [CODE] [ ] [installer code] [5]).
C. Remove power (AC & DC), short JP1 & JP2, then re-apply power (with JP1 & JP2 still
intact). Wait at least 8 seconds, then remove the short with power still applied.
When the system is defaulted, the system reverts to factory programmed values and goes
through the reset and warmup time sequence.
You can select a programming option through the Compass Downloader Software known as
Default Lockout. If selected, a system default reset will change all of the programmable
options except the CSID (a code used by the software to identify the panel during remote
connections) and the installer code. This prevents hostile account takeovers.
