This is the first screen you are presented with when the ZKeypad application starts. This screen acts as a gateway to all the other screens in the Application.
This screen can be accessed by touching the header bar (where it currently states "Ready to Arm - Alarm" in the image below) when the keypad is in alarm. Pressing the "Silence Sirens" button will turn off the sirens and strobe, but will not dismiss any active alarms. Devices will stay armed and the siren will re-sound if any new alarms come in.

This screen allows you to create your very own map of your property with fence lines drawn onto it. This allows you to visualise what section of fence is in alarm from the "Zones" screen. First you need to import a map either from Google Maps or from the SD Card. To do this click on the gallery button and choose either "Load from Google Maps" or "Load from file". To "Load from File" you must first place a FAT32 formatted SD Card into the tablet with the application running. This will create the necessary folder structure onto the SD Card. After 10 seconds or so, remove the SD Card and plug it into your PC. You should see a folder called maps. Place any .jpg, .jpeg or .png file in there and then once again place the SD Card back into the Touch Keypad. Now when you click "Load from File" you should see the map you just copied onto the SD Card. Once you have loaded a map you can begin drawing your fence lines. Select the zone you wish to draw from the zone list on the left and then simply start drawing your zone lines. If you make a mistake you can click the undo button at any time. you can tweak a line by placing your finger near any of the vertices and dragging. Once you are happy with your fence lines simply press the home button - it will save automatically.
The zones screen (left) displays the zones that are currently in the site and by selecting one you can find further information about the zone in the zone details screen (right). In the zone details screen you can set the currently selected zone to high or low power as well as the ability to disarm it. If you have enabled the "Mimic map" button in site settings you will have a map button. press this to view your map
The map screen shows at a glance the state of your zones. In this example all of our zones need maintenance and are yellow. To the right your can see some floating buttons that allow you to arm and disarm your entire site. You can click the "Zone details" button to view in depth information about each zone
| Option | Description |

| green | zone is disarmed and there are no alarms |
This screen is opened via the Program Devices button in the Site settings. This Screen allows an installer ot configure each energiser quickly without having to slowly enter key combinations. To start programming, choose a device from the list to the left. The keypad will put the device into programming mode and attempt to read back the existing settings (only possible if the bus supports Protocol Mk2). Simply make the changes to the appropriate settings and then press "Program". This screen also has the ability to save and load settings, so if there are device settings that you frequently program these can be loaded in and then programmed straight away to the device you wish. When you are done programming the device simply press the "Exit Program mode" button.
