3.2 | Wire the inputs
Wire resistance on each sensor input must be less than
100 Ω with the detection devices connected. The terminal block supports 18 to 22 AWG (1.02 to 0.65 mm) wires.
The keypad detects open, short, normal, and ground fault circuit conditions on its sensor loops and transmits the conditions to the control panel. Each sensor loop is assigned a point number and transmits to the control panel individually. Run wires away from the premises telephone and AC wiring.

3.3 | Wire the output
The keypad provides one NO (normally open) output. (It includes
NO and C (COMMON) terminals.) When the output is in an active
(energized) state, the NO has continuity with the C terminal.
NOTICE!
Do not exceed relay contact ratings of 1.0 A, 24 VDC, resistive load.
3.4 | Mount the keypad
After wiring the keypad, mount the keypad onto the mounting plate by seating the mounting hook openings over the mounting hooks and then sliding the keypad down.
4 | Set the address
Use the steps below to set the address for the keypad. If multiple
SDI2 keypads reside on the same system, each SDI2 keypad must have a unique address. For single-digit addresses 1 through 9, set the tens switch to 0.
Figure 4.1 shows the address switch setting for address 1.
NOTICE!
Only use your fi nger or a stylus intended for touch screens to operate the keypad.
Setting the keypad address:
1. When you apply power to the keypad, the start up screen shows. You can also show the startup screen by pressing and holding the Time/
Date in the ribbon bar for 5 seconds, or by pressing and holding anywhere on the Call for Service screen. Press screen hold the countdown icon for 5 seconds. The keypad addressing page shows.
2. To set the address, use the up and down arrows on the right of the switches image to change the ones digit, and the arrows on the left to change the tens digit.
3. Press the (escape) icon to save the setting and return to the power up screen.

6 | Audible tones
The keypad has a built-in speaker that produces several distinct warning tones. The keypad backlight illuminates when it emits an audible tone.
Tone
Fire signal
Description
When an area is in fi re alarm, the keypad emits a pulsed, high-pitched bell tone.
Gas signal
User alarm
Burglary signal
When a gas point activates, the keypad emits a unique high pitched tone.
When a user alarm (such as panic and medical alarms) occurs, the tone sounds for the programmed amount of time.
When an area is in alarm, the keypad emits a steady, high pitched bell tone.
Entrance warning The keypad emits an intermittent beep tone during entry delay periods to remind the user to disarm the area.
Exit warning
12 | Next
Invalid button buzz
The keypad emits an intermittent beep tone during exit delay.
When an invalid button, or sequence of buttons, is pressed, the keypad emits a fl at buzz tone.
Keypad encoding tone
Trouble buzzer
The keypad emits a muted beep tone as each button is pressed to indicate that the entry was accepted.
When a trouble event occurs, such as a service alert, the keypad emits a two-tone warble until you enter a programmed passcode with the appropriate authority.
Watch tone A single clean tweedle tone alerts the user anytime a watch point is faulted.
Table 6.1: Keypad audible tones
7 | Supervision
The control panel supervises all keypads on the SDI2 bus.
If a keypad fails to respond to the control panel, the control panel declares a Missing Keypad Trouble. When the control panel can again communicate with the keypad, it restores the Missing Keypad
Trouble.
During a Missing Keypad Trouble, any connected keypad that maintained contact with the control panel shows the Missing Keypad
Trouble as its idle text, and shows the missing keypad’s address. The communicating keypads also sound a trouble tone. Users can silence the trouble tone. If no other troubles exist, the tone silences when the missing keypad restores.
8 | Proximity reader
The proximity reader allows users to use a token or card in place of a passcode to turn on or off the security system. The proximity reader supports EM4102 (125 kHz) credentials. The Bosch
ACA-ATR13-RFID tag and Bosch ACD-ATR11ISO-RFID card are examples.
9 | Addresses, points, and output numbers
To determine the point numbers or output number for each keypad address, multiply the address number by 10 for the base number, and then use numbers 1 through 4 in the ones place for the point numbers. Use 1 in the ones place for the output number.
Examples
For keypad address 01 the point numbers for the input devices are 11 through 14:
Terminal no 1 2 3 4
Input no 11 12 13 14
For output devices connected to the NO and C terminals the output number is 11.
For keypad address 03 the point numbers for the input devices are 81 through 34:
Terminal no 1 2 3 4
Input no 31 32 33 34
For output devices connected to the NO and C terminals the output number is 31.
10 | Confi gure Emergency Key functions
To enable the Emergency Key functions use RPS to set the A,B,C Key
Response parameters (KEYPADS/Global Keypad Settings) as follows:
- To enable the Fire key, set A Key Response to Manual fi re alarm.
- To enable the Medical key, set B Key Response to Manual medical alarm (with or without alarm bell).
- To enable the Panic key, set C Key Response to Manual panic alarm
(invisible or visible).
