office/warehouse buildings, or apartment/condomini-
um complexes.
The ESPRIT keypad’s comprehensive 12 zone keys,
8 function keys and keypad sounder serve to keep
you instantly aware of alarm, system and operational
status. Motion detectors, smoke and glass break
detectors, as well as vibration/shock and door/window
contact sensors will all report to ESPRIT’s RISC
microprocessor brain, and vital security information
will be communicated to you by the keypad display.
The ESPRIT can report a wide range of status condi-
tions to the security central monitoring station.
Automatic test reports can also be sent to the central
station to ensure that your system is functioning prop-
erly. We recommend that such tests be conducted
regularly. Please consult your installer for instructions.
Using telephone lines, a computer modem & high-
security software, your security company can perform
remote diagnostics and modifications to your ESPRIT
panel at your request. Your control panel can also be
armed remotely should you forget to do so.
Depending on the panel, you may even obtain an
activity printout of the last 120 events that occurred in
your system. All control panels software version 3.00
and beyond, will provide a report of the last 256
events. This reduces time and expense devoted to
security supervision and can be performed in minutes.
Look
Everything you need to know about your security
system is clearly and simply displayed on the Esprit
keypad. The keypad diagram at the end of of this
manual provides you with an excellent introduction to
the roles of the keypad function keys on both the
Esprit 616 and 626 keypads.
Individual zone key lights communicate the status of
the zones in your system. If the zone light is "off", the
status in that zone is normal. If the zone light is "on"
(constant light), this means the zone is open. If the
zone light is flashing, this means that there is a zone
wiring problem (which will be automatically commu-
nicated to your security company.)
Listen
Every time a key is pressed, it illuminates and the key-
pad beeps (0.5 second tone) to show that the entry
has been recognized. When you enter information on
the keypad, it will guide you with beep tones that com-
municate acceptance or rejection of your entries. You
should be familiar with these two keypad beep tones:
Keypad beep tones

ing/disarming) is successfully entered on the keypad,
or when the system switches to a new status/mode,
