For some reason I am having trouble figuring this one out.
I need to be able to have the F4 key on the ELK M1 Keypad silence alarms other than burglar without entering a user code.
The scenario is the Fire Department gets called out for a false (or real) fire alarm and wants to be able to silence the alarm without having to know a code or find the main panel. All I have come up with so far is to turn off outputs 1 & 2 when F4 is pressed and Fire Alarm is active. I would then not have voice announcements on output 1 which I would like to still have. What am I missing here? There must be a way to do this. It would be nice to do this for freeze and water alarms too but at least the cutoff is shorter for those.
Any ideas are welcome.
