2. Enter the new code, and then press #.

Zone Bypassing

If a zone is not to trigger alarm, you can bypass it, when the partition to which the zone belongs is disarmed. Zone bypassing is useful, for example, when you want to leave a window open when the system is armed or when a detector connected to the zone is out of order and sets off false alarms.

Zone Inhibiting

The inhibited zone will remain bypassed until disarming the partition it belongs to, or until unbypassing the zone by the user. Enter the user menu and press in turn 4ghi 1 #. Information on the bypassed zones will be displayed. How it will be presented depends on the type of keypad.

LCD Keypad Zone Bypassing

Shown in the upper line of the display will be a message to inform you that the zone is bypassed, and in the lower line – the zone name. You can scroll through the zone list using the [left] and [right] keys. There is a symbol in the upper right corner of the display:

• [not-bypassed] - zone is not bypassed
• [inhibited] - zone is inhibited
• [isolated] - zone is isolated

Press any number key to change the displayed symbol to one of the following symbols:

• [to-inhibit] - the zone is to be inhibited
• [to-unbypass] - the zone is to be unbypassed

If you want to see the status of all zones which you can inhibit/unbypass, press [up] or [down]. The numbers around the display enable identification of the zones. Use the [left] and [right] keys to move the cursor. To inhibit/unbypass a zone, hover the cursor over it and press any numeric key. If you want to restore the previous way of presentation of the zone list, press [left] or [right].

Press [menu] to quit the function. The zones will be inhibited/unbypassed.

LED Keypad Zone Bypassing

The state of zones is illustrated by LEDs designated by numbers. The steady-on LEDs indicate which zones are inhibited or isolated. The flashing LED means that the cursor is situated there. Use the [left] and [right] keys to move the cursor. The cursor may only be moved over the LEDs corresponding to the zones which can be bypassed or unbypassed. Press any digit-bearing key to change the LED status:

• LED ON – the zone is to be inhibited
• LED OFF – the zone is to be unbypassed

Press [menu] to quit the function. The zones will be inhibited/unbypassed.

Zone Isolating

The isolated zone will remain bypassed until it is unbypassed by the user. Enter the user menu and press in turn 4ghi 2abc #. Information on the bypassed zones will be displayed. How it will be presented depends on the type of keypad.

LCD Keypad Zone Isolating

The way of indicating the zone state and the procedure are identical to those used for inhibiting the zones, but pressing any number key will change the displayed symbol to one of the following symbols:

• [isolated] - the zone is to be isolated
• [to-unbypass] - the zone is to be unbypassed

The contents of control commands is to be programmed by the installer. Additionally, the installer defines what the control panel is to do after receiving the control command, as well as which users and from which phone numbers can operate the control panel using the SMS messages.

Two or more control commands can be inserted in one SMS message.

When sending the USSD codes, the SMS message must have the following form: xxxx=yyyy= where "xxxx" is the control command and "yyyy" is the USSD code supported by the cellular network operator.

? The control panel is case sensitive.

7. VERSA CONTROL Application – First Steps

The VERSA CONTROL is an application which enables remote operation of the alarm system from mobile devices. Additionally, the application can provide information about alarm system events by using push notifications. If IP cameras are installed in the protected premises, using the application you can watch video from these cameras.

You can download the application from the internet stores: "Google play" (Android system devices) or "App Store” (iOS system devices).

Having Installed the Application:

• Enter the name of control panel (to enable identification of the control panel when using the application).
• Enter the MAC address of control panel (the hardware address of built-in Ethernet communication module).
• Enter the ID number of control panel (the individual identification number for the purpose of communication via the SATEL server).
• Enter the user code (which will be used when operating the control panel by means of the application).
• Select an icon for the control panel (to facilitate identification of the control panel when using the application).
• Enable / disable the push notifications of the alarm system events (if you enable the push notifications, select the events about which you want to be informed).
• If you want to watch video from IP cameras in the application, configure the camera settings.

You can check the MAC address and ID number in the LCD keypad. Enter the user menu and press in turn 9wxyz 8tuv #. Find the built-in communication modules on the list and then use the [left] or [right] key to find information on the MAC address and ID number.
