Describing Utility Outputs
The system supports up to 196 programmable utility outputs (UOs) in the system. UOs
typically automatically activate
external devices
and appliances
such as lighting and air
conditioning, or system

–
in response to installer-defined activation
criteria, such as events and other triggers related to alarms, zones, partitions, system events,
user actions, and scheduled operations
.
Ask your installer about configuring UOs in your
system.
To schedule the automatic operation of a UO, the user inputs specific criteria, such as the
time and dates for activation/deactivation (s
ee Defining Automatically-Operated UOs and

Utility outputs can also be manually activated locally from keypads, or remotely via
either SMS (see
