Operation
Refer to the Simon XT Touch Screen Quick Operation Guide for
basic touch screen operation information. Refer to the panel
documentation for complete Simon XT programming and
operation information.
Setting the clock
You can set the touch screen clock by setting the clock on the
Simon XT panel.
Battery replacement
When the touch screen batteries are low, the touch screen will
display the red battery icon on the Home and Settings screens.
Note:
We recommend that you replace the batteries once a year
and after any significant power outage.
1.
Remove the touch screen from the mounting plate by
inserting a small screwdriver into the slot on the bottom of
the touch screen.
2.
Replace all batteries being sure to follow the polarity
instructions (see Specifications for recommended batteries).
Avoid touching the touch screen face while you are replacing
the batteries.

3.
Briefly disconnect the AC power (this will clear the battery
fault).
4.
Reconnect AC power.
Note:
If AC power is lost and batteries are not present or are
depleted, the touch screen will not power up until AC power is
restored (even if new batteries are installed).
Reset button
The Reset button is located on the bottom left side of the touch
screen mounting plate (see Figure 1 above). To power cycle the
touch screen, use a toothpick to depress the recessed Reset
button.
Note:
Do not press the Reset button while in programming mode.
Clear operation
If the Simon XT panel is connected to an online service, some
information (such as a dealer logo) can be stored in the touch
screen memory. To erase touch screen memory and restore to
factory default, simply relearn the touch screen into the panel
again. The learn in process begins by clearing the touch screen
memory. To keep memory clear, learn the touch screen into a
Simon XT panel that has no online service supported.

Troubleshooting

If your touch screen fails to enroll, go to the Simon XT panel,
delete that touch screen from the panel, and then repeat the
enroll procedure.
If the touch screen chime does not announce the zone name
completely, it is likely due to the zone information not being
sent to the touch screen during installation. To correct the
problem, delete the touch screen and relearn the touch
screen again.
Red text on the Door Lock page indicates an open door or a
door that is not monitored.
