Changing Menu Items

After selecting a menu, press Enter to see further options belonging to that
menu. The system usually displays the name of the option on the top line,
and the values the option currently has on the bottom line of the display. In
addition, the system shows a flashing cursor to mark the part of the display
that will change when you next press a key.
During programming you can select options within the menu and change their
value by using the arrow keys:
Note: On the keypads the A, B, C and D keys behave as arrow keys. The sticky label
provided with the keypad shows how they function during programming. Make
sure you place this label in the space next to the keys under the flap of the
keypads.
• The up and down arrow keys (A and B on the keypads) normally let
you select which part of the system an option will affect. For example,
menus 31 to 35 use the up and down arrow keys to select particular
zones or areas. In all menus pressing the up and down arrow keys will
scroll the display through a list of the options belonging to that menu.
• The left and right arrow keys (C and D on the keypads) let you move
the cursor.
• For some parameters, the up and down arrow keys also let you toggle
between on or off, Y (yes) or N (no), or a short list of allowed values.
When you have finished changing an option press Enter to store the change.

Correcting mistakes

If you decide you have made a mistake then you can abandon a change by
pressing Menu instead of Enter. You can then re-enter the menu to key in the
correct value. You can use the Menu key to escape from any part of the
program.

Entering Text

Some menus have options that need you to enter text, for example: zone and
area names. For those options the system lets you enter letters from the
keypad one at a time by pressing a number key repeatedly until the display
shows the letter you want. Each number key gives its own number and three
letters of the alphabet.
Figure 10 shows which letters belong to each number key. Select the letter
you want, press the key shown the correct number of times. Use the right
arrow key (D on the 931) to move the cursor to the next space for a new
letter.
