3b. Binary Data
The top line of the display will show the current feature number on the left and the segment number on the
right. The data will be displayed on the bottom line with the numbers 1-8 in the first 8 characters. If the
number appears, this binary switch is on. If a minus sign (-) appears where the number should be, this
switch is off. Toggle numbers on or off using the corresponding number digit (1 to toggle 1; 8 to toggle 8).
When the numbers are in the desired state, enter
. The data will be entered and the segment will be
incremented by 1. The data for this segment will now be displayed. Continue this process until the last
segment is programmed. When the last segment is reached, the code pad will prompt for the next feature.

. This key press will not save
the changes made to current segment, but will exit the feature. ‘Shortcut Keys’ shown in Numerical Data

3c. Character Data
Character Data is used to enter LCD text when programming. (Refer to
feature on page 8 for
custom messages.) Custom zone descriptions and messages are stored character or ASCII data type.
This information is programmed using the bottom line of the display as a text editor. Once a character
feature has been entered, the current data will be displayed on the bottom line. As is always the case, the
top line will display the current feature and segment number. The five (5) function keys, as well as the up
and down arrow to the right of the display, are now used to edit the message prior to saving it back to the
feature storage. An underscore ( _ ) in the display indicates the current cursor feature.
