Important! Upon initial power up there is a 45 second delay before the initiation circuits become active.
The system will be ready to receive alarms once the display indicates “System Normal”
5.1 Installer & User Keys
An installer key ships with the panel and an operator’s key ships with the SK-5235
(Figure 5-2). The installer key opens the panel door and can be used to perform user
operations without a user code at the panel and the SK-5235. The operator’s key can be used
to perform user operations without a user code but will not open the panel door. All installer
operations require an installer code. To perform user operations without a user code, insert and
turn the key as shown in Figure 5-2. See Table 5-1 for a list of user and installer operations.
Installer Key: Perform user
operations without a user
code and open panel door.
User Key: Perform user
operations without a user
code.

Basic operations for the on-board annunciator (touchpad) and SK-5235 are described in Table
