About Function Keys (*57 Menu Mode)
The system provides the ability to program each of the four keypad function keys to perform one of 12
system operations. The end user can then activate the function by simply pressing and holding the
programmed key for 2 seconds. Typical functions (listed below) include single-button arming, turning lights
on/off, or single-button paging.
To assign emergency key functions (function key option “00”), first program the respective emergency zone
number (95 for “A” key, 96 for “C” key, 99 for “B” key) with the desired zone type using *56 Zone
Programming mode, then use *57 Function Key menu mode to assign the desired key.
To use a function key to activate a relay action (*57 Menu mode key function 07), use *79 Menu mode to map
the output, and use *80 Menu mode to define the output’s action; select system operation type “66.”
To use a function key for a user macro, use *57 menu mode to activate the desired key, then define the
actual macro functions using the user code + [#] + [6] [6] command.
Programming Function Keys
1. Assign the function key number and partition.
2. Select the desired function for that key.

Define Key Function
00† = For the Function key selected, the function will be as follows:
If A selected = Zone 95 (emergency key, same as [1] [ ∗] pair)
If B selected = Zone 99 (emergency key, same as [ ∗] [#] pair)
If C selected = Zone 96 (emergency key, same as [3] [#] pair)
If D selected = Single-button paging
01 = Single-button paging (sends a 999-9999 message to pager)
02 = Display time
03 = Arm AWAY (reports as User 00 if closing reports are enabled)
