4.7.6 [*][6] User Functions
The [*][6] command provides access to functions described below. If
section [023] option 8 is on, any user code can access this menu. If
option 7 is off, only the master code can access this menu.
Event Buffer
Menu: [*][6][master code] > Event Buffer
Keypad: [*][6][master code] > [*]
This option is used to view system events stored in the event buffer.
Events are listed in the order they occurred, starting with the most
recent. The time and date are listed for all events. Some events may
have a second screen with a description. An asterisk (*) on the first
screen indicates that a second screen is available.
If programmed, the event buffer automatically uploads to DLS/SA
when it reaches 75% capacity. See section [410] options 3 and 5.
System Test
Menu: [*][6][master code] > System Test
Keypad: [*][6][master code] + 04
Select this option to test the alarm system's bell output, keypad
buzzer and lights, communicator and standby battery.
Time and Date
Menu: [*][6][master code] > Time and Date
Keypad: [*][6][master code] + 01
Use this section to program the alarm system clock.
Enter time and date using the following format: (HH:MM); (MM-
DD-YY). Valid time entries are 00-23hours, 00-59 minutes. Valid
date entries are 1-12 months, 1-31 days.

Auto-Arm/Disarm
Menu: [*][6][master code] > Auto Arm/Disarm
Keypad: [*][6][master code] + 02
With this feature enabled, the alarm system automatically arms in
away mode (stay/away zones active) or disarms at a programmed
time each day (see Auto-Arm Time below). The keypad emits three
beeps to indicate the system is armed and one long beep to indicate it
is disarmed.
All arming inhibit features such as latching tampers, AC inhibit, etc.
also inhibit Auto Arming and send the Auto Arm Cancellation code.
Auto-Arm Time
Menu: [*][6][master code] > Auto Arm Time
Keypad: [*][6][master code] + 03
This function is used to program the time of day each alarm system
partition automatically arms. To program an auto-arm time, select a
day of the week and then key in the time. On LED/ICON keypads,
zone lights 1-7 represent Sunday to Saturday. Valid time entries are
00-23 hours: 00-59 minutes.
At the programmed time, the keypad buzzers beep for a programmed
duration (for ULC commercial burglary installations minimum dura-
tion is 10 minutes) to warn that automatic arming is in progress. The
siren also squawks once every 10 seconds during this warning period
if programmed to do so. When the warning period is complete, the
exit delay elapses then the system arms in away mode.
Auto-arming can be canceled or postponed only by entering a valid
access code during the programmed warning period. When a code is
entered, the warning is silenced and auto-arming is canceled or post-
poned, depending on the auto-arm postpone timer. The Auto Arm
Cancellation reporting code is transmitted (if programmed).
NOTE:
Auto-arming will not silence an active bell.
NOTE:
The Auto Arm Cancellation reporting code is also transmit-
ted if arming is inhibited by one of the following:
•
AC / DC Inhibit Arm
•
Latching System Tampers
•
Zone Expander Supervisory Fault
