GENERAL INFORMATION

The FA570PX is an addressable Remote Keypad with a built-in Proximity Reader, and is intended for use with First

Alert Professional series control panels.

Basic features of the Keypad

• 2-line Alpha display

• Backlit Display (programmable as permanent on some controls; see the control's instructions for details)

• Continuously Backlit Keys for convenience

• Programmable Function Keys

• Built-in Sounder (speaker)

• Arm/Disarm via Prox Tag

• LED Indicators for Armed and Ready-To-Arm

• Supervised by control panel (if supported)

• Uses two keypad addresses

Installation Notes

• The Keypad can only be used on addressable systems and must be set for address 00-30 (16-23 for

FA148CP / FA168CPS controls).

• The Prox Reader uses an additional keypad address, which must be enabled at the control panel (see control panel installation instructions for allowable keypad addresses).

• The partition used for the Keypad, Prox Reader, and user security code must be the same.

• The Prox Tags will only arm and disarm one partition. The Prox Reader cannot be used to perform global arming operations.

• For optimal performance, use only the Prox Tags provided. For additional Prox Tags, order

PROXTG-BK (Black) or PROXTG-GY (Gray).

MOUNTING AND WIRING

The Keypad can be surface mounted directly to a drywall, or to a single- or double-gang electrical box.

1. To remove the case back, insert a small screwdriver blade at a downward angle into Slot 1 and twist (the right side pops up). Insert the screwdriver blade at a downward angle into Slot 2 and twist (the left side pops up). Insert the screwdriver blade into right side narrow

Slot 3 and twist. Separate the case back from upper case.

3. Mount the case back to a wall or electrical box.

4. Wire directly from the Keypad’s terminal block to the terminal block on the control panel. (See Wiring Table below). Connect only the red and black Aux.

Power connections at this time.

Do not connect the ECP Data In or Data Out until directed to do so. If the keypad’s Prox Reader detects the presence of ECP Data In and Out connections during address programming mode, it will exit to “normal” mode.

See the control panel’s Installation and Setup Guide for more complete details.

NOTE: No more than one wire per terminal may be connected. If daisy-chained configuration is required, pigtail wires together so that only one wire is terminated under the screw. Use 16-24 AWG wire only!

5. Reattach the Keypad to its case back.

6. If the Keypad and Prox Reader addresses have not yet been programmed, refer to the Setting the Keypad and

Prox Reader Addresses section and set the two addresses.

7. After the Keypad and Prox Reader addresses have been programmed, remove the Keypad from its back plate again (see step 1 above) and connect the green and yellow (data in/data out) wires from the control.

8. Reattach the Keypad to its case back.

SUMMARY OF PROGRAMMING STEPS

1. Connect only the red and black wires to the Keypad.

2. Program the Keypad address (01-31).

3. Press * to save.

4. “Prox Addr? XX” displays. Enter an unused keypad address for the Prox Reader.

5. Press * to save.

6. Power down the panel.

7. Connect the green and yellow wires and complete the installation.

8. Power up the panel.

9. In control panel programming, configure the programmed Prox Reader address as a keypad. a. If using an FA1600C, FA1340C or like panels, go to device programming and program the Prox Address as an “Alpha Console.” b. If using an FA148CP / FA168CPS, use an address between 17 and 23.

Go to location *190 to *196 and enter the partition in which the Keypad is being used.

10. Exit control panel programming mode.

11. Enroll the Prox Tag by programming a new “User” code with the four-digit serial number located on the tag’s packaging.

SETTING THE KEYPAD AND PROX READER ADDRESSES

The Keypad requires two unique device addresses: a Keypad address and a Prox Reader address. Addresses range from 00-30 (default address is 31 and must be changed to an appropriate address).

To initially set the addresses, make sure that only the red and black wires are connected to the Keypad, then follow the steps below for Keypad Address Mode and Prox Reader Address Mode.

When both the Keypad address and Prox Reader address have been programmed, power down the control and complete the wiring connections (see step 7 in Mounting and Wiring section).

After the installation is completed, only the keypad address can be changed.

NOTES:

• The Prox Reader address can be set only when the green and yellow data wires are disconnected.

• The keypad will not enter address mode if the panel to which it is connected is in programming mode.

• If 10 seconds have passed with no key entry, the keypad automatically exits address mode. You must power down, power up and start address mode again.

• Defaults: Keypad address = 31; Prox Reader address = 23

Keypad Address Mode Prox Reader Address Mode

1. Enter keypad address mode: Power up the Keypad.

Immediately † press and hold down the [1] and [3] keys at the same time for 3 seconds. If unable to enter address mode, power up and try again.

The current keypad address is displayed, and the cursor will be under the "tens" digit.

NOTE: This mode can be entered only if the green and yellow data wires are disconnected.

1. After exiting Keypad Address mode, the Prox Reader begins communicating with the Keypad, and the

Keypad displays “Prox Addr? XX” on the first line.

† If only the red and black wires are connected, press within 5 seconds of power-up. If more than 5 seconds elapses before pressing the [1] and [3] keys, the

Keypad automatically enters Prox Reader Address

Mode.

After all wires are connected, press and hold the [1] and [3] keys within 60 seconds of power up.

1. XX = the current ECP Address. The Prox Reader address cannot be the same as the Keypad address. Select an address between 01 and 30

(default = address 23.)

2. Make sure you enable the Prox Reader address as a keypad in the control panel.

2. Enter the appropriate address: Enter the proper

"tens" digit of the address. The cursor moves to the

"ones" digit position. Enter the proper "ones" digit of the address.

2. Enter the keypad's address: Enter the proper "tens" digit of the keypad's address. The cursor will move to the "ones" digit position. Enter the proper "ones" digit of the keypad's address.

3. Press [ ✻] to save the displayed address.

• If only the red and black wires are connected, the

Keypad now enters Prox Reader address mode.

• If all wiring is connected, the system exits address mode.

3. Press the [*] key to save the entry. The Keypad beeps three times confirming the address is accepted, and the first digit of the address flashes. You can reenter the address if needed.

4. Power down the Keypad and remove the case back.

5. Refer to step 7 of the Mounting and Wiring section and complete the green and yellow wiring connections.

VIEWING THE KEYPAD ADDRESS

During normal operation, press and hold down the [1] and [3] keys at the same time for about 3 seconds. The current keypad address is displayed. No key entry is allowed. Press any key to exit or wait 10 seconds to exit viewing mode.

ENROLLING PROX TAGS

Each Prox Tag is enrolled as a “User” in the alarm system. When enrolling the Tags, the last four digits of the Tag’s serial number is used as the User Code. Refer to the control’s User Guide for instructions on programming user codes. When programming is complete, test the system to ensure that each Prox Tag arms and disarms the system as specified.

Swiping a Prox Tag when the system is in programming mode may cause programming fields to receive invalid entries.

KEYPAD OPERATION

For detailed system operating instructions, refer to the User Guide for the control panel used with this keypad.

Prox Tag Operation

LCD

DISPLAY

Prox tags are used to alternately arm and disarm the system.

Presenting a prox tag is functionally equivalent to entering a

4-digit security code.

To arm or disarm the system, present the prox tag at the location of the Proximity Label (bulls eye) on the front of the keypad. The system beeps to confirm that it is has been armed or disarmed.
