Upgrade Port
The Upgrade Port is the connection port for remote software upgrade. This must match the settings you
use in Remote Link for software update. Enter the port number to be used when upgrading the ePAD. The
recommended range is 2000 through 65535. The default Upgrade Port is
9999
.
Default Top Line
Like a wall-mounted DMP keypad, the ePAD status list operation may at times only use the lower line of the
display. At this time, the top line is available to display a 16-character message, such as ABC PRINTING or
JONES RESIDENCE, which is programmed here.
Enter the message, up to 16 characters, that you wish to show on the ePAD top line display. By default, the Top
Line is blank. You may enter any characters when programming through the browser. Some special characters
do not display properly when you view the programming through a standard 32-character LCD keypad.
Session Timeout
Enter an amount of time, from 0 to 99 minutes, that the ePAD waits before automatically disconnecting after
no activity is detected. When 0 is entered, a Session Timeout never occurs. The default is
10
minutes.
ePAD Supervision
Select whether the ePAD operates in supervised or unsupervised mode. By default, the ePAD is unsupervised.
When the ePAD is supervised, it sends a response to the panel each time its assigned address is polled by the
panel. When in the unsupervised mode, the ePAD only communicates with the panel when a key is pressed.
Note:
The ePAD cannot share an unsupervised address with any 770 series keypad.
