Accessing Other Partitions 
To Access Another Partition 
Each keypad is assigned a default partition for display purposes, and will 
show only that partition’s information. But, if the user is authorized, a 
keypad in one partition can be used to perform system functions in other 
partitions by using the GOTO command. Note that only those partitions 
authorized and programmed by the installer can be accessed in this manner. 
To GOTO another partition: 
   READY 
1.  Enter your security code,...

Global Arming Notes: 
• When performing a Global Arm, if there are faults in any of the selected 
partitions, the system will enter a Summary Mode. Faulted zones in all 
the selected partitions will be displayed. These faults must be corrected 
or bypassed. This Summary Mode will end in approximately 120 seconds 
if no keys are pressed. 
• When performing a Global Disarm, if any of the selected partitions has a 
condition which would cause the keypad to...

Common Lobby Operation 
When an installation consists of a partition that is shared by users of other 
partitions in a building, that shared partition may be assigned as a “common 
lobby” partition for the system.  An example of this might be in a medical 
building where there are two doctors and a common entrance area. 
This option employs logic for automatic arming and disarming of the common 
lobby.  Partitions may be set to affect and/or attempt to arm...

How User Codes Affect the Common Lobby 
Codes with “Global” Arming 
If your code is given global arming when it is defined, the keypad will ask 
ARM ALL? or DISARM ALL? whenever you try to arm or disarm the 
partitions you have access to.  This allows you to pick and choose the 
partitions to be armed or disarmed, and so eliminates the automatic 
operation of the lobby.  Keep in mind, however, that if attempting to arm all, 
and another affecting partition...

Checking For Open Zones 
Using the ✴  READY Key 
Before arming your system, all protected doors, windows and other protection 
zones must be closed or bypassed (see BYPASSING section).  Otherwise the 
keypad will display a Not Ready message. Using the READY key will 
display all zones that are faulted, making it easier for you to secure any open 
zones. 
To show faulted zones: 
 DISARMED - PRESS 

 TO SHOW FAULTS 
Note: Some keypads light a green LED when 
the system is ready. If not lit, the...

Displaying All Zone Descriptors 
Using the ✳  READY Key 
The Alpha Keypads can also display all the zone descriptors that are 
programmed in your system. The abbreviated instructions for the READY 
key will appear first, followed by the zone descriptors. Displaying all 
descriptors is useful when you need to know the zone number of a particular 
zone, as when bypassing zones. 
The Disarmed-Ready to arm message must be displayed before zone 
descriptors can be displayed.

Bypassing Protection Zones 
Using the   6  BYPASS Key 
This key is used when you want to arm your system with one or more zones 
intentionally unprotected. Bypassed zones are unprotected and will not cause 
an alarm when violated while your system is armed. All bypasses are 
removed when an OFF sequence (security code plus OFF) is performed. 
Bypasses are also removed if the arming procedure that follows the bypass 
command is not successful. 
Note: The system will not allow fire or emergency...

Bypassing Protection Zones (cont’d) 
Quick Bypass 
Your system allows you to easily bypass all open (faulted) zones without 
having to enter zone numbers individually.  
Note: All bypasses are removed when an OFF sequence (security code plus 
OFF) is performed. 
To use the Quick Bypass feature: 
  BYPASS 
1.  Enter your security code and press  6  then press  # . 
2. BYPASS  007 FRONT

Arming Perimeter Only 
(With Entry Delay ON) 
Using the   3  STAY key 
Use this key when you are staying home, but might expect someone to use 
the entrance door later. 
When armed in STAY mode, the system will sound an alarm if a protected 
door or window is opened, but you may otherwise move freely throughout the 
premises. Late arrivals can enter through the entrance door without causing 
an alarm, but they must disarm the system within the entry delay period or 
an alarm will occur....
