*Copying the text to other LCD keypads connected to the panel*
If more than one LCD keypad is connected to the panel, it is possible to copy the edited Text
from one LCD keypad to any other keypads connected to the same panel.
While in “Local Edit Mode” at the keypad with the edited text, if you press “Control” followed
within 2 seconds by “3”, the text in your keypad will be transferred to all other LCD keypads
connected to the panel.
NOTE: Each LCD keypad MUST be set to a different address for this function to work correctly.
*Exiting Local Edit Program Mode*
Press “PROGRAM” then “ENTER” (the LCD keypad will leave Local Edit Mode and return to
Idle Mode).
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Arrowhead LCD (liquid crystal display)
keypad.
The LCD keypad uses two lines of 16 characters to display full alpha numeric text.
This keypad has been designed to keep the day to day operation as simple as possible so
that all users will feel comfortable using the alarm system. To simplify normal daily operations
we have provided many clearly identified keypad buttons that are dedicated to single tasks.
The LCD keypad is also a very powerful diagnostic tool allowing easy access to the alarm
systems’ event memory. The event memory stores multiple alarm activity events. All of the
events are logged with the time and date they occurred and displayed via the LCD keypad.
The LCD keypad can be customized to suit the particular needs of the end user and this
manual details how these changes can be made.
The following pages explain how to use the many special features of this keypad as well as
how to program the customizable features.

Setting the Keypad Address & Panel Type
Each Keypad Must have a different address setting before applying power. If there is only
one keypad used on the system then the default setting of keypad #1 is OK. The switches
are only read on power-up so they must be set before applying power. Switches 1-3 determine the keypad address. Switches 4-7 are used to set the keypad for the type of alarm
panel it will used on (see table below for details). Switch # 8 is un-used.
NOTE: There are two PW64 settings, the first works with software versions V1.01 panels and
the second with V1.04 and above.

PANEL TYPE SETTINGS
*Changing the Keypad Panel Name*
Name <A..Z>
PowerWave 16D
When you enter in [PROG]-[999]-[ENTER] the display will look like the example above (the
actual name will depend on the settings of switches 4-7 as per the chart on page 4). You may
enter any name you wish up to 16 characters in length (using the same method as described
on the previous pages for zone names). This name is displayed at the keypad in Idle mode.
When you are happy with the changes Press “ENTER” to save.
*Changing the Keypad Area Character*
Areas <A..Z>
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP
When you enter in [PROG]-[998]-[ENTER] the display will look like the example above. You
may edit the single character Area Names at this address starting at Area “A” (first left-hand
position). The keypad allows for up to 16 partitions or areas but the actual number of areas
supported will be dependant upon the panel type set. The first character (in this case the ”A”)
is the identifier used to show the status of the first Partition. The second position (in this case
the “B”) is the identifier used to show the status of the second partition.
If you preferred to have the first partition shown as Area “1” and not “A” then you can change
it here using the same method as used previously. With the cursor underneath the letter “A”,
Press the “1” button four times until the character in the first slot shows “1”.
When you are happy with the changes Press the “ENTER” button to save the changes.
*Resetting the Text to Default or Last Saved Setting*
While in “Local Edit Mode” there are two special functions that can be performed at any of
the addresses 1-64, 998 & 999. They are “Return to Default Text” or “Return to Previ-
ously Saved Text”.
For Example, to Return the Zone 1 text back to Defaults;
If during the programming of Zone 1 text [PROG]-[1]-[ENTER] you wished to return back to
the default text, simply Press “Control” followed within 2 seconds by “2” and the text will
return to the default settings.
If you wished to return to the last saved version of the text simply Press “Control” followed
within 2 seconds by “1” and the last saved text for zone one will appear.
NOTE: If the last saved version of text for Zone 1 was in fact the default setting, then pressing “Control” then “1” will return the default text anyway.

Once you have selected the desired font size you can now proceed to change the text for
Zone 1.
The following table shows the English Characters that can be selected by each numeric button.

The lower case options are shown in ( ).
There are four different selections per button. By pressing the button once, a character will
appear in the display (see “1st press” column below) . Pressing the same button again will
cause the display to change to the next character in the sequence (see “2nd press” column).
After you have pressed the same button four times the next press (5th) will cause the display
to wrap back to the beginning.
Once you have selected the first character, Press the “PANIC” (right arrow) button to move
the cursor one position to the right.
Now select the second character and move the cursor to the right repeating the process until
all of the text is completed (Remember that there are a maximum of 16 characters per program address).
If you make a mistake use the “ARM” (left arrow) button to move the cursor towards the left
and make any corrections.
When you are happy with the text Press “ENTER” to save the changes. You can program the
text for all zones in the same way.
