Description
RESTORE option in user programming is selected for
that zone.
Isolate
Standard*
Manager
Isolating a zone deactivates that zone until such time
as the zone is de-isolated. All zone types on the SPC
can be isolated.
Use of this feature to deactivate faulty or open zones
should be considered carefully; once a zone is isolated,
it is ignored by the system and could be overlooked
when setting the system in the future, compromising
the security of the premises.
Inhibit
Standard
Manager
Inhibiting a zone [➙ 28] deactivates that zone for one
alarm set period. Only alarm, entry/exit, fire exit and
line zone types can be inhibited.
This is the preferred method of deactivating a faulty or
open zone as the fault or open condition is displayed
on the keypad each time the system is being set to
remind the user to attend to that zone.
Change PIN

Manager
This menu option allows users to change their user
PIN.
Engineer
Manager
This option allows users to grant access to

Set Date /
Time
Standard
Manager
Use this menu option to program the time and date on
the system.
Ensure the time and date information is accurate; these
fields are presented in the event log when reporting
system events.
Test
Standard
Manager
This menu option provides the following test features:
1. Bell test: The bell test activates the external bells,
strobe, internal bells, and buzzer in turn for 5 seconds
to ensure their correct operation.
2. Walk test: A walk test allows for testing of the
operation of all alarm sensors on a system.
When this option is selected, the keypad displays the
number of zones to test on the system. Activate each
alarm sensor (by opening the door or window) and
check for an audible beep at the keypad. Isolated and
inhibited zones are not included in the walk test.
3. Audible Options: This option allows users to select
which devices will activate during the walk test and
which will be silent.
View Log
Standard
Manager
This menu option displays the most recent event on the
keypad display. The event log details the time and date
of each logged event.
Chime
Standard
Manager
All zones that have the CHIME attribute [➙ 31] set
generate a short burst of audible tone on the keypad
buzzer when they are opened (while the system is
unset).
This menu option allows for enabling or disabling of the
chime feature on all zones.
SMS
Standard*
Manager
This feature allows users to set up the SMS messaging
service if a modem is installed on the system.
