FRONT PANEL BEHAVIOR
Edit>Settings>Site Settings - Front Panel
The front panel behavior of the alarm LED is user configurable.
Under Front Panel Alarm LED, the
LED indicates alarm on local site
option causes the front panel LED to illuminate
when there is an alarm condition on any of the equipment physically connected to the unit. The
LED indicates
alarm on any site
option causes the LED to illuminate when any site in the ARC Plus network has an alarm.
If you want cleared alarms to appear in the front panel alarm list, check the box marked
Show cleared alarms
.
Cleared alarms appear beneath uncleared alarms and show the date and time they were cleared.
If you want the status report to show status off and status on messages for every channel, check the box marked
Show all status conditions
. Otherwise, the front panel status report will only include status on messages.
The
Front Panel Passcode
feature, available in firmware version 5.0.1.1 or higher, adds enhanced security to your
ARC Plus. The passcode, entered in the field shown above, can consist of up to 8 numeric digits. After the passcode
has been set on the ARC Plus, the front panel interface will lock under the following conditions: 1) any time the
ARC Plus unit is powered on, or 2) if the user selects MENU>LOCK on the front panel, or 3) when the screen saver
delay is reached if the screen saver has been set to “Turn the display off”. (See SCREEN SAVER SETTINGS, below.)
When locked, the display will be dark. To unlock the display, touch the dark screen. This will cause the screen to
display a numeric keypad. Enter the passcode and touch UNLOCK.
The passcode can be changed or removed in the same way that it was set.
