Protege System Controller Reference Manual

Module Polling Time
The polling time defines how often the LCD Keypad checks in with the Protege System Controller. If a LCD
Keypad fails to check in, it triggers its associated communications failure trouble zone (KPxxx:08) and the
trouble zone for a general module communications failure.
To enter a polling time (008 to 250 seconds), use the keypad as explained in section Entering Decimal Numbers
(see page 341) and press [ENTER]. By default the LCD Keypad polling time is set to 250 seconds. Setting a
polling time below 60 seconds should only be done for keypads that are in a non-secure area.
