SECTION 5
Menu Mode Programming
General Information
The Menu Mode Programming is an interactive mode through which much of the system’s zone and alpha programming
is done. In this mode, there are “question and answer” prompts. These require a 2-line alpha keypad (6160).
Fields 56 is used to program zone numbers, zone types, and alarm report codes. This field can also be used for
entering alpha descriptors for zones (however, we recommend entering descriptors in menu mode 82.
