About Accessing Partitions
(GOTO Command and Multi-Partition Arming)
Each keypad is assigned a default partition for display purposes, and will show only
that partition's information.
• If the user is authorized, a keypad in one partition can be used to perform
system functions in the other partition by using the GOTO command. Refer to
the GOTO section.
• If the user is authorized, that user can arm other partitions. Refer to the Multi-
Partition Arming section.
The following table shows the relationship of the keypads in each partition when
system is armed and disarmed.

When both partitions are disarmed, the keypad in each partition displays zone
status for its partition only. The common zone keypad shows the status in that
zone only. See Condition 1 above.
When partition 1 is disarmed and partition 2 is armed, the keypad in partition 1
shows the status of partition 1 and the common zone. Partition 2 will display the
status of partition 2 only. See Condition 2 above.
When partition 1 is armed and partition 2 is disarmed, the keypad in partition 1
shows the status of partition 1 only. Partition 2 will display the status of partition
2 and the common zone. See Condition 3 above.
As long as any one of the two partitions is disarmed, the common zone will
always be disarmed. The common zone will be armed only when both
partition 1 and 2 are armed. See Condition 4 above.
