Using the Keypad to Place a Call
You can use your touch panel to place a call by using the keypad to manually enter a phone number. You
can manually enter a phone number on the Keypad screen (FIG. 2). Perform these steps to use the
keypad to place a call:
1. Press Keypad. The Keypad screen appears.
2. Use the keypad to enter the number you want to call.
3. Press Call. The number you entered is dialed.
An alternate method to place phone calls is by creating a phone contact list and dialing by accessing the
list. The following sections describe how to create a phone contact list and how to use it to place calls.
Answering an Incoming Call
When you receive an incoming call or someone presses the doorbell button at an entry communicator,
you have the option to answer the call or ignore it. An incoming call to your panel opens the Incoming
Call pop-up screen (FIG. 3). You can press the Answer button to accept the call or the Ignore button to
send the call to voice mail, if available.
