HOW DO I PROGRAM THE SYSTEM?
The
Spectra
TM
series control panels can be programmed using the
WinLoad Software
or by using any keypad connected to
the
Spectra
control panel. For information on the WinLoad Software, please refer to
the Spectra Installation & Reference
Manual
. To program the
Spectra
control panel using a keypad, you must enter the
Programming Mode
as shown below.
Once a control panel has been programmed, you can use the
Paradox Memory Key
to copy the contents from the
programmed control panel to one or more control panels (see page 5).

is used in all sections except those specified in
