WIRELESS KEYPAD: ARMING
AND DISARMING
Your system may be equipped with one or
more wireless keypads. Up to four (4)
wireless keypads can be used to control the
system remotely from the main Control
Panel.
Two types of wireless keypads are available.
A wireless keypad without a screen, and a
wireless touch screen keypad.
The wireless touch screen keypad operates
virtually the same as the Control Panel. Each
standard wireless keypad has buttons for
entering user codes, Stay and Away mode
buttons, and Fire and Police emergency
buttons.
Check the See "Installer Programmed
Options" on page 40. section in this guide to
verify which 24‐hour Fire and Police
emergency buttons have been enabled by
the installer.
