2.4.7 

Key Beep Screen 

The Key Beep screen allows the user to turn on or off the audible beep that occurs when a valid touch event 

takes place.  This setting is only stored in volatile memory and will be lost when power to the unit is cycled.  

The default value for this setting is On. 

 

2.4.8 

Remote Screen 

When the Local/Remote switch is set to the REMOTE position the Remote screen appears.  This screen has all 

the same information as the Main Menu screen except that the 

User

 and 

RF ON/OFF

 buttons are not present.
