Keypads
The GardTec 872 control panel may be operated via any Gardtec 800 Series LCD
keypads. Several types of keypad are currently available: Standard or Contour 32
character LCD. Standard keypads will also require a remote housing if not fitted onto
the main control panel. This housing may be fitted in any one of three orientations.
Programming of the system must be carried out through and LCD type keypad.
The GardTec 872 is also ACE compatible. ACE allows for the setting, part setting,
unsetting and resetting (Code level dependant) of the system via Infra-Red remote
control keyfobs. ACE is available as a stand alone receiver or built into a RKP
LCD, LED and ACE keypads may be mixed on the same system allowing for total
flexibility in control of the system. A maximum of eight keypads/ACE (inclusive of ACE)
units may be fitted to the GardTec
872. A maximum of 4 stand alone ACE units may
be fitted.
Uploading/Downloading & Remote System Management
The GardTec 872 control panel is capable of uploading and downloading from both a
primary location and secondary location (e.g Laptop computer), this helps reduce
maintenance costs should there be a need to update the system program or a
customer on site having difficulties.
This uploading/downloading capability has the ability to allow for complete Remote
System Management. One example of the time that can be saved is programming
zone descriptors on a fully populated system (144 zones), if was to take just one
minute to program each zone descriptor this would take 144 minutes, via the GardTec
Remote software package this would only take a few minutes.
