Using your Euro-MERiDIAN Alarm
System just couldn’t be easier!
This is the Keypad from where
you control your Alarm
System*.
Note:
For your security, the keypad becomes
disabled for 90 seconds after 24 incorrect keypresses, or after 6 attempts to present invalid
tags. It will subsequently be disabled again
after 7 further incorrect key-presses or after
another invalid tag is presented. Once a
correct code or tag has been registered, the
keypad is returned to normal operation.
*Please note that Keypad design may differ from that shown.

The 10 digit numeric keypad is
where you use your PIN code.
The A B C D keys help simplify use,
and will illuminate to highlight
your choice of security cover, or
flash if there is a problem.
This is where you present your

Warning Indications
All setting points (Keypads or Tag
Readers) have lamps to clearly
indicate what is happening.
The ‘Alert’ lamp will flash if there is
information available to you. Enter your
code to see the information. After a code
has been entered, one of the following
lamps will light: Alarm, tamper or fault.
The relevant detail of the problem will be
shown on the display. To clear the
display, press the ‘Yes’ key (or the display
will clear automatically after 3 minutes.)
The ‘Alarm’ lamp will flash after code
entry if an alarm occurs.
The ‘Tamper’ lamp will flash after code
entry if the wiring or equipment is
tampered with.
The ‘Fault’ lamp will light after code
entry to indicate if a technical fault
occurs.
The ‘Unset’ lamp will light for 5 seconds if
the panel is completely Unset (steady) or
if some areas remain Set (flashing). It will
also light during the setting procedure,
going off once set.

Engineer Reset
When an alarm has been cancelled and
the Police have been notified by the
Alarm Receiving Centre, you will see the
following screen when you try to use
the system.
It is usually necessary for an engineer
from your installation company to
check the installation and reset the
system for further use.
But if you have
caused the alarm in error
your Alarm
Receiving Centre or Alarm Installation
Company may permit you to reset the
system without an engineer present.
You will be required to quote a 6-digit
code by telephone (advise them that
the system is a Castle Euro-MERiDIAN).
You will then be given a special code
which will reset the system
for that
one occasion
only.
Press ‘NO’
Enter the anti-code given to you by
your installation company.
You alarm in now restored and ready to
use.
This 6-digit code is also displayed in th e
‘user menu’ – see page F21.
