The LCD display
Messages are displayed on the liquid crystal display (LCD) on the keypad. They guide
you through the functions of the Advisor MASTER SYSTEM, such as identifying
problems, the procedures necessary to rectify problems, programming functions and
other menu options. The display might also show information you have entered on the
keypad.
The first line of the display shows system information and scrolls if there are more
characters than can be displayed, depending on the arming station type. The second line
of the display shows instructions, and characters you enter on the keypad.
In some instances there can be insufficient space to display all the text being presented
(e.g. a list of areas in your building):
•
If a complete list is displayed on line 1, there is a full stop at the end of the list.
•
If the list is incomplete, there is a ">" at the end of the line and the full stop does not
appear.
By pressing [NEXT] you can then display the rest of the list and update the
information at the same time.
•
If only part of a name or location is shown, it can be moved left by entering the
applicable number preceding the text, and then pressing [ENTER].
Your system might display a custom message instead of the one shown above if it has
been programmed to do so.
e.g.:
The LED’s
