Display Controls for the Alarm Panel

There are a variety of different display settings you can adjust on the Alarm Panel that affect that individual alarm panel. If you have more than one Alarm Panel, you will need to adjust the setting on each panel you wish to have adjusted. 

To Access the Display Settings: 

1. Click on the “More” icon at the bottom navigation bar

2. Select “Settings”

3. Select “Display”

Changing Brightness

Brightness allows you to change how dim or bright the display on the Alarm Panel is. 

To adjust display brightness: 

1. Click on the “More” icon at the bottom navigation bar

2. Select “Settings”

3. Select “Display”

4. Navigate to “Brightness” 

5. Move the slider to the desired brightness. If you wish to make the screen brighter, slide the slider to the right, and for a dimmer display, slide the slider to the left.

6. Once set, the Alarm Panel will automatically apply the settings. You can navigate out by clicking the back arrow or the “Home” button located on the top menu. 

Changing Display Timeout/Sleep Display

After a certain amount of screen inactivity, the Alarm Panel will go into “Sleep” mode (the screen will turn off). The rest of the system is still active and operational when your panel is in “Sleep” mode, and the screen will wake up once it has been pressed. If the setting is off, it will change the display to a blank screen with the current arming status and time after a period of inactivity. 

This automatic “Sleep” function is turned off by default, but it can be turned off or adjusted.

To adjust this setting: 

1. Click on the “More” icon at the bottom navigation bar

2. Select “Settings”

3. Select “Display”

4. Locate “Auto Sleep Display”

5. Toggle this setting on or off based on your preference

   1. If toggled on, use the slider for “Minutes of Inactivity” to select the amount of time before the screen turns off.

6. Once set, the Alarm Panel will automatically apply the settings. You can navigate out by clicking the back arrow or the “Home” button located on the top menu. 

Please note that with the sleep display on, the visibility of arming status will not be present while in sleep mode. 

Wallpaper 

If you have the Sleep display feature disabled, you can toggle on a wallpaper for a set period of inactivity. This will display a background image and visibility of the current arming status and Time. 

To set the wallpaper: 

1. Ensure that “Auto Sleep Display” toggle is disabled

2. Adjust the Screen timeout window to your desired length. 

3. Check the checkmark box that says “Wallpaper” 

Enabling/Disabling Entry Wake

Entry Wake allows the screen to turn on when the system is in “Entry Delay” (The countdown to disarm the system when entering the residence).

2. Select “Settings”

3. Select “Display”
