Understood.

One security professional emailed me the following about the lack of DIY for this system:
 "The system you have is a upper level system so if you can utilize it then that is good.
  Radionics/Bosch never was intended as a DIY system.
  They were always geared for the upper end market and are used in High Security systems.
  Most banks, government divisions (including the FBI, Secret Service, Post office and the military use their equipment.
  They used to be even tighter with releasing their documentation prior to being acquired by Bosch.

  Regarding the CALL FOR SERVICE, that is normally a message that appears when the keypad does not receive any data from the control board for about two minutes.
  You can confirm that by powering up one of your keypads with 12VDC only with no connection to the panel."
