2000 2x16 LCD (liquid crystal display)
Alphanumeric Touchpad lets you control all programming and
operation of a compatible security system (see “Specifications”

The touchpad includes police, fire, and auxiliary panic buttons
that can be activated anytime.
A built in speaker provides alarm sounds, status sounds, and
button-press beeps.
