Safe Mode
In the rare event that the TouchCenter cannot successfully
communicate in its graphic mode with the control panel, the Safe
Mode is a backup mode that ensures that you can communicate with
your system.
In this mode, the TouchCenter operates much like a standard non-
graphic keypad so that you can control your system until the problem
is corrected.
If this situation occurs, the TouchCenter presents you with a message
of “Problems detected. Start Keypad in Safe Mode?” and requests a
“Yes” or “No” response. If you answer with “Yes”, the TouchCenter
will go into the Safe Mode. If you answer with “No”, the TouchCenter
will try communicating with the panel again. After 3 consecutive
times of receiving no response, the TouchCenter will enter the Safe
Mode automatically.
Note:
Use care when providing the “Yes” or “No” response. Touching
the screen outside the prescribed area may cause the background to
come to the front. If this occurs, the Yes/No message that disappeared
will time out in 30 seconds even though it is not visible. Then the
keypad will reset into the Normal Mode (or Safe Mode if this is the
third time that the warning message appeared).
While in the Safe Mode, the Home screen will display the Security
Button, Panic Button, Message Button, and a message at the bottom
of the screen as shown below:
