Introduction

Displays

The LCD display shows messages and prompts to help guide you
through setting, unsetting, resetting and programming the
system.
When the system is idle (either while
set or unset) the display shows the
"standby screen", comprising the time
and date:
(The top line of the display may show the installer's name
instead of "i-on40".)
To draw your attention to special events the rim of the navigation
key glows red.
The four LEDs on the right of the programming keys show you
whether the system is set or unset:
In a part setting system, the left hand LED glows when the
system is full set, the other LEDs glow when the system is in
one of the part set states.
In a partitioned system, each LED represents on partition. The
left hand LED is partition 1, and the right hand LED is partition
4. If a LED is glowing continuously the partition is full set. The
LED flashes slowly when the partition is part set.
Note that the installer can disable these LEDs in order to hide the
state of the system (this may be required in order to comply with
local standards).
Detectors or Zones?
When talking about alarm systems, people tend to use the words
"detectors" and "zones" interchangeably. Most of the time this
doesn't matter, but occasionally it can cause some confusion. In
this book a "detector" is a physical piece of equipment that
signals some event. A "zone" is how the keypad reports the
location of the detector.
The reason for this is that an installer may connect several
detectors together to guard one "zone" (an area of a building for
example). The control unit cannot tell that this has happened, so
it is easier for the keypad to report an alarm from a "zone". Most
