Can someone help with the translation of "nominabile" in the description of a home alarm system: "Codici accesso singolarmente nominabili", and also "rilevatori singolarmente nominabili". Thanks for your guidance, Sarah.

(that can be) named


Explanation:
Alpha-numeric programming (zone names), is done 2 ways. Either with simple up/down arrows to select letters, or it is similar to sending text messages on a numeric keypad on a cell phone (#2 = ABC). Again, this can vary with the manufacturer.
