Most of the options may be performed at any time, READY even while the control is fully or partially armed.
OPERATING THE SYSTEM Control Station Overview For SSD, LED, LCD, and VFD Control Stations: Away, Stay, and Night Keys These keys, followed by a passcode, arm one or both areas to the AWAY, STAY, or NIGHT level. Away, Stay, and Night LED’s These LEDs backlight the AWAY, STAY, and NIGHT keys to indicate the armed level of the Control Station’s primary area.
OPERATING THE SYSTEM Control Station Function Keys TEST KEY This key allows you to perform one of the six following tests: Walk, Battery, Bell, All Control Station function keys (except the View Communications, Keypad, and RF Signal Info Key) require that the function key be pressed Strength.
