” on the monitored keypad will trigger a status announcement
from the speaker output (except if the user has made the MUTE speaker con-
trol menu selection. User command confirmation for Entry/Exit, Alarm, and
other warnings can also be provided.
The speaker output is for auxiliary use only and is not intended to replace the
system’s primary sounder or siren.
When using an outside speaker, announcements made by the speaker will be
limited. All faults that exist may not be announced when status is called for. This
will prevent lengthy voice reports through the output speaker that some users
may find objectionable.
