Programming data
Programming data is always one of two types. One type of data is numerical, which can have
values from 0-15 or 0-255 depending on the segment size. The other type of data, feature
selection data, is used to turn features on or off. Use the following procedures with these two
data types:
NUMERICAL DATA:
Numerical data is programmed by using the numeric keys of the system
keypad to enter a number from 0-255. To view the data in a location, a binary process is used.
With this process, the LED’s for zones 1 through 8 are utilized, and the numeric equivalents of
their illuminated LED’s are added together to determine the data in a programming location.
The numeric equivalents of these LED’s are as follows:
Zone 1 LED = 1
Zone 2 LED = 2
Zone 3 LED = 4
Zone 4 LED = 8
Zone 5 LED = 16
Zone 6 LED = 32
Zone 7 LED = 64
Zone 8 LED = 128
Example:
If the numerical data to be programmed in a location is “66”, press [6] - [6] on the keypad. The
LED’s for zone 2 and zone 7 will become illuminated indicating 66 is in that location (2 + 64 =
66).
Once the data is programmed, press the [*] key to enter the data and advance to the next
segment of that location. After the last segment of a location is programmed, pressing the [*]
key will exit that location, turn the “Ready” LED off and the “Armed” LED on. As before, you are
now ready to enter another programming location. If an attempt is made to program a
number too large for a particular segment, the keypad sounder will emit a triple beep,
indicating an error, and remain in that segment awaiting a valid entry.
Remark:
on the LCD keypad, the number in the location will be displayed. For locations with a
maximum of 15, the hexadecimal equivalent will be displayed in parenthesis.
Example: 11 (B) or 14 (E).
FEATURE SELECTION DATA:
Feature selection data will display the current condition (on or off)
of eight features associated with the programming location and segment selected. Pressing a
button on the keypad (1 through 8) that corresponds to the “feature number” within a
segment will toggle (on/off) that feature. Pressing any numeric key between [1] and [8] for
selection of a feature will make the corresponding LED illuminate (feature ON). Press the
number again, and the LED will extinguish (feature OFF). You will see that numerous features
can be selected from within one segment. For instance, if all eight features of a segment are
desired, pressing [1] - [2] - [3] - [4] - [5] - [6] - [7] - [8] will turn on LED’s 1 through 8 as you
press the keys, indicating that those features are enabled.
LCD keypad users note: the numbers of the enabled features will be displayed. However, the
features not enabled will display a hyphen (-).
After the desired setting of features is selected for this segment, press the [*] key. This will
enter the data and automatically advance to the next segment of the location. When you are
in the last segment of a location and press the [*] to enter the data, you will exit that location.
This will now turn the “Ready” LED off and the “Armed” LED on. As before, you are now ready
to enter another programming location.
