CHAPTER 3: QUICK START GUIDE
This section presents a brief guide and some helpful hints for first-
time users of the 1400. Follow the instructions for installation
before attempting to program the unit.
HOW THE KEYPAD COMMANDS WORK
The 1400 uses simple keypad commands to program and check

either the SET, WHAT IS, or SENSOR ON/OFF keys. The SET key
is used to program parameters. When performing a programming

a Zone you would press [SENSOR ON/OFF] + [Zone #] or to
turn the speaker Mute on you would press [SENSOR ON/OFF] +
[HISTORY/MUTE].
