If Open/Close schedules are used, end users can manually delay closing time by
extending the closing window by 1 or 2 hours. This is useful if a user must stay on the
premises later than usual. The user must have authority level of manager or higher.
To extend the closing window, enter user code + # +82.
Closing Delay ?
Enter the number of hours, 1 or 2, by which the end of the closing
Key 0-2 Hours
window should be extended. Note: The delay is from the scheduled
closing time, not from the current time. Press
and exit this mode. Press [#] to exit this mode without changes.
An extension of the closing window cannot be reduced once it is set. However, a 1 hour
delay can be increased to 2 hours. This is to prevent the user from deleting the delay after
the normal window expires, thereby missing the end of the window.
Each keypad is assigned a default partition for display purposes, and will show only
that partition's information. To see information for another partition or perform system
functions in another partition, use the GOTO command (code + [*] +partition number
0-8). The keypad will remain in the new partition until directed to go to another
partition, or until 120 seconds has elapsed with no keypad activity. To return to your
home partition, enter
You must programme data field 2*18 to enable the GOTO function. This is a partition-
specific field that must be set for each partition the user wants to access from another
partition's keypad.
The keypad will display the partitions that a user is authorized for, the user number,
and the authority level for all partitions authorized. Enter code + [*] + [*]. The user's
capabilities in each authorized partition will typically be displayed as follows:
Part. 1 A0
WHSE
User 01 Auth.=1G.
The Alpha Keypads can display all programmed descriptors, which is useful to the
installer when checking entries, and can be helpful to the user when there is a need to
identify zones. To display descriptors, the system must be disarmed and ready
to arm. Press and hold the READY key until the built-in instructions for that key
appear, then release the key. The zone descriptors will appear one at a time, for about
2-3 seconds each.
For faster viewing, press the READY key to display the next
descriptor in numerical order and so on. When all descriptors have been displayed, the
control will exit display mode. To exit display mode before all descriptors have been
displayed, enter the security code and press the OFF key.
Users may occasionally receive a message from their installation company displayed on
an alpha keypad. When this occurs, the keypad will display "Message. Press 0 for 5
secs.". Instruct the user to press and hold the 0 key to display the central station's
message. Note that the system must be in the READY state to view these messages.
An abbreviated User's Manual is stored in the system's memory, and can be
particularly useful to the end user if the printed User's Manual is not conveniently
accessible when the user needs to perform a seldom used and unfamiliar system
procedure. The Built-in User's Guide is displayed only on an alpha keypad by simply
pressing any of the function keys (e.g., OFF, AWAY, STAY, MAXIMUM, BYPASS,
INSTANT, CODE, TEST, READY, #, and CHIME) for approximately 5 seconds and
then releasing it. Abbreviated instructions relative to the key that has been pressed
will then be displayed (2 lines of text are displayed at a time). This function works in
either armed or disarmed state.
The system will send an "Access Schedule Change"
message to the central station when the closing
window is extended.

The user's Open/Close report capability is shown by the dot
following the authority level. If Open/Close is not enabled for
a user, the dot will not appear.
