1.0 BASIC OPERATION

The Esprit 616, 626, 636 and 646 keypads all
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
below.

1.2 ZONES

The Esprit control panel can support up to 24 zones.
When a zone is opened or breached 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. The Esprit’s keypads will show the
status of the zones through keys 1 to 12. By default,
keys 1 to 12 will display the status of zones 1 to 12.
Press the [2ND] button and keys 1 to 12 will now
display the status of zones 13 to 24 respectively.

1.3 PARTITIONING

Your Esprit system is equipped with a partitioning
feature that can divide your alarm system into two
distinct 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
is armed, the [STAY] key flashes. If System B is
armed, the [AWAY] key flashes. If both systems are
armed, both of these keys will be flashing.

2.0 ACCESS CODES

2.1 PROGRAMMING USER CODES

In addition to the master code, the Esprit control
panel can be programmed to accept up to 48 user
codes.

Esprit Keypads 5

Note: Avoid programming simple or
obvious access codes, such as your
telephone number, address or codes such
as 1234.

To create or modify access codes, follow the steps
indicated in section2.2. The master code and user
codes are identified by a 2 digit “code number”.

2.2 CREATING USER CODES

1) Press [ENTER] and then enter your master code
(default 474747) or user 1 code. You will hear
the “confirmation” beep and the [ENTER] key will
flash.

2) Enter the two digit “code number” (01-48) for the
user code you wish to program (or 00 to change
the master code). You will hear the
“confirmation” beep and the [ENTER] key will stay
on.

3) Key in 4 or 6-digit user access code and press
[ENTER]. The “confirmation” beep will be heard
again. The [ENTER] key will flash. You may
continue programming other user codes, or
press [CLEAR] to exit programming mode.

Note: [2ND] key flashes if location is empty
(no code programmed).

2.3 DURESS CODES

The last user code (user 48) can be programmed to
report a “duress code”. If you are forced to arm or
disarm your system under threat, a duress code can
be entered to produce a silent alarm at the monitoring
station. Check with your installer to see if this option
is active on your system.

2.4 DELETING A USER CODE
