CHAPTER 2

Getting Started

This chapter provides an overview of the fields displayed on the LCD. It explains how to determine if the keyboard lock is enabled, as well as providing instructions for locking or unlocking the keyboard. It also explains how to set or change the user-defined password.

LCD Display Overview

The keyboard display is a 2-line by 16-character backlit LCD (liquid crystal display). It serves the same purpose as the four LED displays on the AD2078 system keyboard. In addition, it provides a field for identifying the lock status of the system.

The LCD is divided into six functional areas: site, monitor, camera, entry field, status, and preset mode. The following illustration provides an overview of the LCD.
