Inactivity timer

The programming interface has a 10-minute keypad inactivity timer. When being used with keypads that do not 
have their own inactivity timer, the programming interface will time out after 10 minutes of inactivity. When 
being used with keypads that do have their own inactivity timer and it is less than the 10-minute timer of the 
programming interface, the programming interface will time out when the keypad does. When being used with 
keypads that have a longer inactivity timer, the programming interface will time out after 10 minutes of 
inactivity. Refer to your keypad’s manual to see if it has an inactivity timer and what the duration is so that you 
know when you can expect the programming interface to time out.
