If a PACE reader is installed and configured on the SPC Keypad, it is functional
only with users of PACE-configured profiles.
If a Limited User's profile is configured for such device and functionality, once
presented within 1cm of the Keypad's receiver area, the PACE enables setting and
unsetting denoted by the usual set/unset beeps.
If Manager and/or Standard Users' profiles are configured for such device and
functionality, access to keypad is allowed using the PACE. Presentation of the
device within 1cm of the Keypad's receiver area logs in the user and prompts
menu options.
For additional security measures, engineers have the option to set the PACE
configurations to PIN and PACE. This prompts and requires user code following
presentation of the PACE.
X10 is a technology that allows peripheral devices, such as lights, heaters, or
appliances, to be controlled by the system and system events can be used to
trigger outputs on the X10 devices. For example, a hall light could be configured to
turn on when the front door of the house is opened. Alternatively, the function can
be controlled directly at the Keypad.
X10 settings are programmed by the installation engineer and users are informed
of the settings and the corresponding keys on the Keypad that the settings are
assigned to.
To turn an X10 feature on, press the hash (#) key and the feature number. The
corresponding device turns on. To turn an X10 feature off, repeat the same
keystrokes. The corresponding device turns off. The installation engineer can fill in
the following table for quick reference.

X10 Codes and Descriptions
NOTE
X10 uses uni-directional communication and should not be used for critical devices because system
interference can prevent the device from responding to the command.
