About Descriptor Programming
The system lets you assign zone descriptors for protection zones, keypad panics, and RF receiver
supervision faults. Each description can be composed of a combination of words (up to 3) selected from
a vocabulary of 196 words stored in memory (see a following page). In addition, up to 10 installer-
defined words can be added to those already in memory. Thus, when an alarm or trouble occurs in a
zone, an appropriate description for that zone's location can be displayed at the keypad. Zone
descriptors are recommended for systems using Alpha display keypads.
NOTE: You can enter zone descriptors when the zone is being defined in
recommend you do it using
Programming Zone Descriptors (program menu mode ∗ ∗ ∗ ∗ 82)
Descriptor programming involves:
1. Entering index numbers for up to three words from the vocabulary list for each descriptor;
2. Entering up to ten 10-digit custom words, if desired, which can then be used in descriptors.
When defining descriptors:
• Pressing the [6] key accepts the entered index number and moves the cursor to the next position
for a descriptor.
• Pressing the [8] key saves the entered descriptor and moves to the next descriptor.
Start Zone Descriptor Programming mode by pressing *82 while in Data Programming mode. The
following prompts are displayed:

EXPLANATION
The "Program Alpha ?" prompt will appear.
Press 1 to continue.
The "Custom Words" prompt will appear.
Press 0 to program standard alpha descriptors from the fixed
vocabulary. The system will then automatically display the descriptor
for zone 1.
Press 1 to define custom words (described later in "Adding Custom
Words" section).
Note that this is a "Summary mode," and that no entries can be made.
Entries can be made only when the display contains a flashing cursor,
which signifies the "Entry mode."
Press [∗] to continue.
To delete or change the default descriptor for zone 1, press [ ✱ ] plus
the same zone number (01). This will clear that descriptor and allow
changes to be made at the flashing cursor.
NOTE: If you do not wish to change the existing descriptor for zone 1,
enter [ ✱ ] plus the next zone number for which you wish to enter (or
check) a descriptor. A summary display for that zone will appear. You
must then press [ ✱ ] plus the same zone number again to gain access
to the entry mode (flashing cursor) for that zone.
