Battery Charge Current (not used for MG5075)

Section [700]: General Options
Option [2] OFF= Battery Charge Current: 350mA (default)

Partitioning

Section [700]: General Options
Option [1] OFF= Partitioning Disabled (default)
Option [1] ON= Partitioning Enabled
The panel is equipped with a partitioning feature which can divide the alarm system into two distinct areas identified as Partition 1 and Partition 2. Partitioning can
be used in installations where shared security systems are more practical, such as an office/warehouse building. When partitioned, each zone, each user code (See
"Access Codes" on page 26) and some of the system's features can be assigned to Partition 1, Partition 2 or both. If the system is not partitioned, all user codes and
features will be recognized as belonging to Partition 1.
• Users can only arm partitions to which they have been assigned.
• Only zones assigned to Partition 1 will arm/disarm when Partition 1 is armed or disarmed.
• Only zones assigned to Partition 2 will arm/disarm when Partition 2 is armed or disarmed.
• Zones assigned to both partitions will arm when both partitions are armed and will disarm when at least one disarms.
• The following features can be programmed separately for each partition: Entry/Exit Delay Timer, Auto-arming Options, Bell Cut-Off Timer, Switch to Stay
arming, PGM Events and Account Numbers.
WARNING: If the system is not partitioned, all zones, user codes, and features will be recognized as belonging to partition 1. Zones that have been
manually assigned to partition 2 will no longer function.

Confidential Mode

Section [701] Options [3], [4] and [5]
Option [3] OFF= Confidential Mode Disabled (default)
Option [3] ON= Confidential Mode Enabled
Option [4] OFF= Keypads activate when an access code is entered (default)
Option [4] ON= Keypads activate when a key is pressed
Option [5] OFF= Confidential Mode Timer is 2 minutes (default)
Option [5] ON= Confidential Mode Timer is 5 seconds
If Confidential Mode is enabled and no actions are performed on the keypads for the time defined by the Confidential Mode Timer, all the keypad's LEDs will be off
until either a key is pressed or an access code is entered. When the system exits Confidential Mode, the keypads will display the system's status. Confidential Mode is
activated by enabling option [3]. Option [4] regulates whether the keypads will be activated at the touch of a key or only when an access code is entered. Option [5]
determines the amount of time without action before the system enters Confidential Mode (5 seconds or 2 minutes).
