Thank you for placing your trust in the
Esprit
series of control panels. You've chosen a sophisticated,
user-friendly control panel designed to meet all of your technological, performance and security require-
ments. For your convenience and ease of use, almost all of the programming, and upload/download fea-
tures of
Esprit
panels are identical.
We hope that the important features of the
Esprit
line, which include Advanced Technology Zoning,
which allows 2 zones and a tamper on a single pair of wires, a 120-event, PC-uploadable event buffer,
and high-speed pre-programmed communicator formats, will simplify your task of supplying quality secu-
rity service to your customers.
