Using a control panel after an alarm activation

When you interact with a control panel after an alarm activation, you will not be prompted to enter a passcode, instead, you will see the Alarm screen, which tells you what type of alarm has been activated.

Once you have acknowledged the alarm, you can either silence the sounders (the alarm sound), and/or reset the control panel and the alarm.
