Mechanics of Programming
General Programming Information
Programming options are stored in non-removable, electrically erasable, nonvolatile EEROM memory. The
system can be programmed at any time, even at the installer's premises prior to the actual installation.
Simply apply power temporarily to the Control and then program the unit as desired. There are four
programming modes:
• Data field programming (used for setting various system options).
• Interactive menu mode programming (used for programming zone information, programming
Powerline Carrier Devices, and for entering transmitter serial numbers).
• Voice Prompt programming (used for setting various system options).
The system can also be programmed remotely, using an IBM PC compatible Personal Computer, and
Compass Downloader and modem or via capable GSM or IP communications modules. See the Remote
Programming/Control (Downloading) section.
Note: You may find it convenient to adjust the volume setting before entering the Program Mode. This will allow you to
clearly hear the feedback announcements or system beeps in the Programming Mode, of the system’s built-in
speaker. To adjust the volume, press FUNCTION + VOLUME+ [3] or [6]. Upon exiting the Program Mode, the
system will reset the volume to the default value (mid level).
Entering Program Mode
Use one of the following methods to enter Programming Mode:
1. Press both the [✻] and [#] keys at the same time, within 50 seconds after power is applied to the
Control or from exiting Programming mode, OR
2. After power-up, enter the Installer Code (4112) + 800 to enter Expert Programming mode OR
enter Installer Code (4112) + 888 to enter Voice Prompt Programming mode. This method is
disabled if Program mode is exited using ✻98.
If a different Installer Code has been programmed, use that code to enter the Programming mode.
3. Upon entering programming mode, the control will initially display “Entering Programming Mode”.
4. Once you have entered the Program mode, data field “20 INSTALLER CODE” (the first data field in
the system) will be displayed and both keypad LEDs will flash. If you have entered the Voice Prompt
Programming mode. “Pro” will be displayed and the system will announce “Programming, use arrows
to scroll choices. Press select to accept, press escape to quit”.
Programming a Data Field
1. Press [✻] + Field No. (for example, ✻21), followed by the required entry.
2. When you have completely programmed a data field, the keypad will “beep” three times and then
automatically display the next data field in sequence. To go to a different field, press [✻] plus the
desired field number.
3. If the number of digits that will be entered in a data field is less than the maximum number of digits
available (e.g. phone number field), enter the desired data, then press [✻] to advance to the next data
field.
4. If a nonexistent field has been entered, the keypad will display “EE Invalid Entry”. Simply re-enter [✻]
plus a valid field number.
Viewing a data field (without making changes):
Enter [#] + Field No. The system will beep three times and data programmed for that field will be displayed to the
right of the field number. The system will scroll through the data for longer numbers and a beep will sound after
each number is displayed or three times after the final digit is displayed.
Deleting an entry in a field
Enter [✻] + Field No. + [✻]. (Applies only to fields ✻40–✻44, ✻88 and ✻94).
