If the customer can understand the concept of an ATM machine it's really not
as hard as you make it sound.

Compare adding a code in Ademco with adding/changing/deleting a code with
DMP - DMP is far easier...if a code is in use the keypad will tell you with
Ademco...nothing happens or maybe it does. With DMP if the client
understands the basic concept of a menu they can figure anything out.
