Global keypad operation 

On the DSC PowerSeries Neo panel, it is possible to arm and disarm all partitions using a global keypad with the use of the keypad function keys. 

Keypads can be configured to control an individual partition or all partitions. In general, a partition keypad controls the partition it is assigned to. A global keypad controls all partitions.

Global keypads should be placed in common areas of the premises, such as points of entry or reception areas, where the ability to arm and disarm more than one partition at a time is required.
