System Navigation and Reference Header Security Status Content Area
Footer Area
The System Navigation and Reference header displays at the top of the TouchScreen. On the left
side, it provides a navigation icon allowing you to access the Dashboard screen. Centrally it provides
the current time and basic weather information. The right side provides a trouble indicator, when
system troubles are present, access to recent System Activity, and access to System Settings.
The centrally displayed Security Status Content area contains the current status of your
TouchScreen Security System. The various statuses displayed will tell you if your system is:
Ready – (Green) Disarmed and ready to be armed
Not Ready – (Grey) Disarmed and not ready to be armed due to an
arm-blocking event or trouble
Armed – (Red) Armed in Away, Stay, or Night mode
The Footer section contains the Panic Alarm icon, located in the bottom left of the screen. Tapping
this icon will provide you the ability to sound an immediate audible alarm and send an alert to the
Central Monitoring Station that a Panic Alarm has been initiated.
Tapping the Dashboard Navigation icon will allow you to access the Dashboard
screen which provides additional zone information.
The Trouble icon will appear when a system trouble is present. The system
will also sound an audible alert regularly to ensure that you are aware of the
problem. Tapping the icon will open a list of all the current troubles with the
TouchScreen and Sensors. A red badge with a number on the trouble icon
indicates the total number of trouble alerts that have not been snoozed. If
troubles are snoozed without resolving them, the trouble indicator will still
appear but the red badge will not be present.
