Programming the function keys

The NX-1048 keypad has 8 function keys F1 to F8. The keys F1, F2, F7 and F8 can be configured to
perform any action listed in the Table 15 Available function key actions. The other function keys -
F3, F4, F5 and F6 - have a permanent assigned function and cannot be configured. This way you can
create shortcuts for actions that otherwise require selecting a number of the user menu options or
entering codes. The way the functions actually work depends on other system settings, for example
keys to This Keypad>Keypad Features and press OK.
keys to Sounds>Beep on RF loss>Yes and press OK.
