1.0 Basic Operati on
The Esprit 636 and 646 keypads both function in the
same way, but display the visual feedback differently.
1.1 Visual Feedback
The numbers, symbols, lights and keys on the keypad
communicate the status of your system as described
in Figure 1 on page 3.
1.2 Zones
The Esprit control panel can support up to 24 zones.
When a zone is opened, its corresponding key will
light up on the keypad. For example, if zone 5 were to
open, the [5] key will light up on the keypad. If the
zone is breached and an alarm occurs, the key will
flash until the system is disarmed. Esprit’s keypads
will show the status of the zones through keys [1] to
[12]. By default, keys [1] to [12] will display the st atus
of zones 1 to 12. Press the [2
ND] key and keys [1] to
[12] will now display the status of zones 13 to 24
respectively.
1.3 Partitioning

areas (System A and System B). User access codes
can arm or disarm one system or both systems
simultaneously. In partitioning mode, when System A
