Model 4724 Control Expander Installation Manual (P/N 150596-02, Rev. A) Revised 8/98

9.2 Viewing Status

Status mode is used to view the status of the 4724 and to control as you would from an on-site

touchpad. The Status mode for the 4724 is different from that of the 4720 in that it displays

actual touchpad data on the remote computer. Therefore, the Status mode has access to any sta-

tus or function that is available on a standard touchpad.

1. Select Request Status on the Panel Interface Menu.

2. Initiate an upload, either by dialing the panel from the computer or by having someone

press TEST on a touchpad at the account location.

3. The computer screen will begin to show the current touchpad display. The lower part of

the screen shows a simulation of the touchpad. Press the appropriate keys to accomplish

the desired functions.

As computer keys are pressed, they are buffered and shown after the “Keys:” heading at the

top of the status window. The keystrokes are not actually sent to the panel until the ENTER

key is pressed on the keyboard. After the keystrokes have been sent, the “Keys:” area is blank.

The display will take up to four seconds to respond to the keys sent to the panel.

Examples:

Zone status: Press N and the ENTER key to display not ready zones. The zones are dis-

played along with their location text and area one at a time.

Set time:

1. Press 9 T, then enter a valid programming code (such as Code 0).

2. Press the ENTER key. The display will show the set time display.

3. Enter the digits for the time, then press T to enter the data.

ESC programmer:

1. Press 1 TEST, then enter Code 0.

2. Press the ENTER key. The display will show the main menu for the built-in programmer.

The programmer is operated just like it is from a touchpad. A special feature of the down-

loading software allows you to program zone locations and system messages directly.

When the display is in the Program Menu for a text option (the bottom line scrolls groups

of symbols as described in Section 7.5 of this manual), press the F1 function key on the

computer.

3. The display F1:ASCII will change from black to red.

4. Now type in the letters you want to program and press the ENTER key. The letters will be

entered directly into the display.

5. Press F1 again to return to the Normal Key mode. F1:ASCII must be off to emulate the

TEST key and other functions.

6. When the C key is pressed to terminate Status mode, the system will return to normal

operation.
