About Descriptor Programming (*82 Menu Mode)
The system lets you directly enter zone descriptors for each protection zone so when an alarm or trouble
occurs in a zone, an appropriate description for that zone's location can be displayed at the keypad. Each
description is composed of up to 16 characters. In addition, up to six custom words can be programmed
for other uses: three scheduled “reminder” words and three partition descriptors each composed of up to
10 characters.
NOTE:
You can also enter zone descriptors when the zone is being defined in
•
56 Menu mode.
When defining descriptors:
•
Pressing the [4] key moves cursor one space to the left.
•
Pressing the [6] key accepts the entry and moves the cursor to the next position.
•
Pressing the [8] key saves the entered descriptor and moves to the next descriptor.
Start Zone Descriptor Programming mode by pressing *82 while in Data Programming mode.

NOTE:
Do not assign reminder words if using fixed-word keypads.
Pressing [0] goes to the next prompt to let you enter zone descriptors.
