Text Programming
Text may be programmed for input names, for the ‘sign-on’ message, and to identify the Set
level being set / unset. Each keypad key is allocated characters as shown below:
The EURO 280 system incorporates predictive text, so the system will predict which word is
being spelt. For example, if you enter ‘B’ and press the
key and then enter ‘e’. Bedroom
will be displayed, to accept this press the
key. If the word that you require doesn’t appear
on the LCD display, just type the word as normal.
To type a word, press the relevant key the appropriate number of times – e.g. for the letter ‘k’
press the
key twice, or for the letter ‘s’ press the
key four times.
In addition, the
keys are used as follows:
= capitalisation / make letters upper case
= move cursor left
= clears cursor / adds a space
= moves cursor right
Accessing the Engineers Menu on Any Keypad
On the EURO 280, it is possible to access the Engineer Menu on any keypad. If you are in the
Engineer menu in keypad address 0, the other keypads will display ‘system busy’, to access
the Engineer menu on these, press the
key on the relevant keypad.
Grade 2 & Grade 3 Defaults
The EURO 280 can be used as either a Grade 2 panel, or a Grade 3 panel depending on which
case size is selected and the subsequent battery size etc. The menu feature that controls the
programming defaults is the ‘Clean Start’ option (see page 9). Enter ‘2000’ to clean start the
panel as Grade 3, or enter ‘2002’ to clean start the panel as Grade 2.
