Overview

A control panel is the complete system of control chassis and optional expansion chassis for an account. Depending upon the model, a control panel can have a single main controller board and possibly a number of additional door boards and/or input/output boards.

  5. In the Note field, enter any miscellaneous information related to the functioning of the control panel, such as where the panel is located in the building, where any other door or I/O boards are located, when the battery was last changed or the most recent service date.
