How to set Time and Date
The alarm system has an internal clock that may be used to automatically Arm or Disarm the

How to start Walk Test Mode
While in CLIENT mode a User with the proper authority can start walk-test mode. This special
mode latches the alarm signals from detectors at the keypad initiating the test so that one
person can trigger every detector connected to the alarm then return to the keypad to verify
operation. On terminating Walk-test mode the test results are put into the memory buffer so
they can be viewed at a later time.
To start Walk-test mode while in CLIENT mode press
<200>
<6>
and the
keypad buzzer beeps at 1-second intervals.
Next trigger every detector connected to the panel then return to the keypad and all of the zones
that were triggered are displayed on the keypad.
To terminate Walk-test mode press
, the keypad stops beeping and automatically exits
CLIENT mode.
How to Answer an In-Coming Call
From time to time your installer may need to access the alarm from a remote PC to make
changes to your programming and for security reasons they may have configured the alarm so
that an authorized person on-site is required to make the alarm system answer the in-coming
call. This option is only available in CLIENT mode.
If the panel is not configured to answer in-coming calls, the user can force it to answer the call
by pressing and holding <CONTROL> followed within 2 seconds by <9>. This forces the panel
to answer the call immediately. For this function to work the phone line must be ringing at the
time and there must have been at least two rings before pressing the buttons.
Provided the line connected to the alarm was ringing at the time, the panel now answers the call
and allows a remote PC connection.

Using the Remote Command Control
Another powerful feature available from your alarm is Command Control. This feature is a
remote control facility which allows valid users to access the panel via a standard touch tone
telephone and check or changes the Arm/Disarm status of each of the areas, operate each of the
eight outputs or turn on an optional Microphone.
The Command Control feature is only available on panels fitted with a Voice or DTMF board. The
Voice board provides voice prompts to guide you through Command control operations whereas
the DTMF board provides tones (one Long Tone for ON or three short beeps for OFF).
