KEYPAD DISPLAY

Users can easily adjust screen brightness, tone (frequency) and volume of keypad touches. Tap the desired function, then tap the plus or minus buttons to increase or decrease each of the settings for tone, volume and brightness.

WEATHER INFORMATION

Up-to-date weather information for today and tomorrow displays on the bottom left of touchscreens that are installed with network or cellular connected panels. Network and cellular connected panels will also display the current temperature. If the panel is not capable of supporting weather, the space will be blank. Eight icons are available to indicate the weather: sunny, clear, p-cloudy, cloudy, rainy, snowy, stormy and foggy.

TOUCHPAD CONTROL

The user can choose to have an audio confirmation tone each time a screen touch occurs.
The LED keypad (blue or red) indicates AC/Battery power and armed/ disarmed status.

RED KEYPAD

During an alarm state, the keypad screen turns red. The change in color allows the user to instantly recognize an alarm condition, even if the siren has been silenced. The screen remains red until reset by the user.

SHIELD DISPLAY

Basic arming and disarming has never been easier with the interactive shield icon displayed in the center of the keypad. The shield icon can perform many functions:
The keypad shows the arming status of the system at a glance. The shield’s animated border will be a solid blue when armed, and the interior will display the type of arming: All, Perimeter, Home, Sleep or Away. Area modes are also supported. When disarmed, the area will be transparent with the exception of an outline of the shield.

The shield also allows for quick arming. When the user presses and holds the shield for two seconds, the system quick arms. The shield also provides standard arming and disarming options. When arming, the exit timer provides a countdown for the programmed amount of time the user has to exit. The timer provides both a visual and audible notification to exit.

CUSTOMIZABLE CAROUSEL MENU

The carousel menu on the main screen offers common functions such as Panic, Chime, Check-in, Reset, Options, and Easy Exit™. With a customizable carousel, there’s no need to scroll through the options you don’t want to use. Simply turn off those options and only the ones you care about are displayed.

Panic keys are part of the carousel menu; once pressed, three icons will appear: POLICE, EMERGENCY and FIRE. Easy Exit is only available while the system is armed. Traditional DMP shortcut keys will also work in the keypad screen.

ATTENTION LIST

After disarming, if an alarm on any zone or communication problem has occurred while armed, the main screen may display a yellow attention list icon at the top of the screen. When touched, the attention list displays the zone
and event.

VERSATILE SUPERVISED AND UNSUPERVISED OPERATION

When programmed for supervised operation, the keypad occupies its own unique device address on the keypad data bus.

Unsupervised operation allows you to install an unlimited number of keypads set to the same device address. Increasing the number of keypads allows maximum system operating flexibility.

“IS THIS A FALSE ALARM?” OR CANCEL/VERIFY™

In a Home/Sleep/Away or All/Perimeter system, you can CANCEL a burglary alarm or VERIFY that a valid burglar alarm has occurred. You can also answer whether it is a false alarm with YES or NO. Selecting VERIFY or YES manually verifies that an alarm occurred and sends an alarm verification message to the monitoring station.

FOUR EXPANSION ZONES

Zone expansion is available right on the keypad where you need it the most. The four expansion zones on the 7872 and 7873 models are fully programmable Class B protection zones that can be used for a variety of residential fire, burglary and access control applications.

TOUCHLESS OPERATION

The built-in proximity reader operates with a variety of credentials, including cards, fobs and the Prox Patch™, a small, adhesive “button” that users can attach to a wallet, phone, or other item they usually carry with them. A confirmation tone sounds when the credential is recognized and accepted.

Z-WAVE™ SUPPORT

Add up to 140 Z-Wave devices.  Control your lights, locks and thermostats all from the Carousel menu on the graphic touchscreen keypad. Create Favorites to program multiple devices to respond to a single command or panel event like arming and disarming.
