IV. PARTITIONED SYSTEMS OPERATION

This system is

“

partitioned.

If your system is multi-partitioned and the keypad resides in one partition, your

keypad will provide the status of the zones in your partitioning by using the screen

messages described earlier in this manual. The Master Mode of operation allows

you to temporarily access any partition (providing your code is authorized) within

the system and to perform functions in other partitions. Read this entire manual to

help you understand the different screen messages that will be displayed from your

keypad.

NOTE: r 1 will temporarily access the Master Mode. The keypad will revert

back to its assigned partition 60 seconds after a key press, or 10 seconds without a

key press. Press [#] to exit this mode.
