Issue

How can I change the display on the Command Center?

Solution

Control Change Display with COMMAND 49

This function presents three options:

• Dim the display
• Brighten the display
• Continuously show the time and date in the display

Bright/Dim

You can brighten or dim your command center’s display. When the display is dim, the tones are softer than those when the display is bright. Use this option for command centers in bedrooms where a brighter display and louder tones could interfere with sleep.

If you dim the command center display and an alarm or trouble condition occurs, the display automatically brightens and the volume increases. The display returns to dim lighting when you clear the alarm or trouble condition.

Continuous Time/Date

Use this function to:

• Replace the disarmed idle text with a continuous time and date display
• Prevent passersby from knowing the status of your system.
• Display the date and time during normal system operation

Any time your command center has an event to display, the time and date display are automatically removed. To return the time and date display, you must perform this function again.

1. Ensure that your command center is at idle text.
2. Press the COMMAND bar. The display shows SYSTEM COMMAND.
3. Press the 4 key, followed by the 9 key.

   NOTE: If you prefer, you may use the Command Menu in place of steps 2 and 3 to initiate this function. Press the MENU key to enter the Command Menu, then press NEXT repeatedly until you reach the CHG DISPLAY ? prompt. Press ENT.

4. The display shows BRIGHT DISPLAY ?. Press ENT to brighten the display.
5. If you wish to dim the display or continuously show the date and time, press NEXT.
6. The display shows DIM DISPLAY ?. Press ENT to dim the display.
7. If you wish to continuously show the time and date, press NEXT. Note: If your system is turned on (armed), you cannot display the time.
8. TIME DISPLAY ? displays. Press ENT to continuously show the date and time.
9. Pressing ESC with the time and date showing returns the display to idle text.
