Digital Monitoring Products Inc PC0181 User Manual

 

This section provides additional zone and system information.

The Status List is the current status of the system or records of recent system events that display on 

alphanumeric keypads. For example, in Home/Away systems you may see the display 

SYSTEM READY.

If an event were to occur on the system, such as an AC failure, the keypad would also display the 

-TRBL message. This is a system event that is placed into the Status List to alert the user to a problem with 

the system.
Some Status List items remain in the display until manually cleared and some are cleared automatically 

when the condition returns to normal. Below is a list of status and event displays the keypad can show in the 

Status List:
