System 2 Installation / Programming Manual
CHAPTER 9
PROGRAMMING USING A VDT/PC
Introduction
When in program mode, instructions and prompts are displayed on the VDT and user responses are
entered on its Keyboard. Some basic features of program mode are:
Instructions are displayed indented from the left margin.
Prompts are displayed at the left margin.
Entering a 1 serves as YES when a Yes-or-No question is asked.
Entering a 2 serves as NO when a Yes-or-No question is asked.
The x is the clear key.
When entering a data item (like time, date etc.), the prompt line displays that item's current
setting. To change the current setting, just enter your desired data at the position indicated by
brackets
( [--]), then press ENTER. To leave the current setting unchanged, just press ENTER.
All System events which occur during programming will not be displayed (because you are
already using the VDT to program the system), but will be saved in the event buffer for later
retrieval if you so desire.
Keep it Simple
If you are new to the System 2, please do yourself a big favor: When it comes to installing or
programming this unit, "Please Keep it Simple". Until you really learn how this Electronic
Access Control System works, do only one thing at a time and then test it. Then, do the entire
installation that way. Thousands of hours and thousands of dollars have been lost by hundreds
of installers who just had to install and program everything "Right Now"... only to find out later
that they did it wrong and had to do it over.
