Hi,

I have just upgraded to firmware 5.121 and noticed different behaviour in the keypads. I'm not entirely sure that the keypads didn't exibit this behaviour previously but I don't recall noticing it before. The behaviour doesn't appear to cause any problem but it wasn't in the change notes so i'm not sure if it should be expect.

The keypad's green 'off' led remains lit only for a short while after system reset and then switches off. Signing in at the keypad turns it back on but then it switches off again.

Also, the keypads usually show zone/pir activation but one of them turns this off along with the green 'off' led. Is there a way to change this?

Thanks,

Tas

As i remember, this is due to a new legal issue, concerning some new certifications.
It's described in the FIRMWARE HISTORY thread.

Regards

That is correct. It is due to the requirement of the new EN50131/PD6662 European standards (a very bad standard in my personal opinion) There is a special forum on this matter, see http://comfortforums.com/forum52/

To disable this "feature", go to Comfigurator Modules and Settings, check the box "Show Alarrms", download and reset
