Toronto, ON M9L 1R2, Canada
KEYPAD OVERVIEW
The LCD Supervised Remote Keypad adds remote control to Alarm Force
Security System Panels. The wireless keypad transmits key presses to the
panel and displays alphanumeric data received from the panel.
A press of any key puts the keypad in a fully operational mode with backlit
LCD and RF Transceiver active. After 15 seconds of inactivity the keypad
will return to the standby mode unless tones are being generated. If tones
are required, then the keypad will enter standby mode only when tone
cycles have been completed.
The keypad can be wall mounted and is powered by four 1.5 volt AA
batteries. The batteries will operate the keypad for three years based
on two minutes of operation per day. If the AA batteries become low, the
keypad will send low battery reports to the panel. The keypad will continue
to operate for 3 months after the first low battery report.
KEYPAD RESOURCES
The keypad consists of 20 silicone rubber keys. The keys are backlit
making it visible in low light conditions.
OK
REAL TIME CLOCK
The keypad has a real time clock (RTC) that must be set during installation
and after battery replacement. The RTC is required for the keypad to
display time- and date-stamped events, using time offset data received
from the panel. Time and date are also shown during the keypad status
display when the keypad first wakes up:
KEYPAD READY
28/07/2011 12:45AM
Depending on the country/language selected, the time and date format is:
French and Spanish display:
DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM (24 hour time) -- default
US/English display:
MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM (AM/PM)
RTC time and date are set locally at the keypad from the keypad
configuration menu. A configuration setting is also provided to manually
turn on Daylight Saving Time (advances or sets back time by 1 hour).
A “clock” key is provided for local keypad operation and configuration:
• Pressing the clock key once displays the keypad status and time and date on the LCD.
• Pressing and holding the clock key for more than 1 second displays the time and date setting
on the LCD (flashing digits), which can then be set using the numbers (0-9) and navigation
keys (
) on the keypad.
• Pressing the clock key again provides the setting for Daylight Saving Time (DST) on/off.
• Pressing OK toggles between AM-PM, DST ON-OFF
• Pressing the clock key once more exits keypad set-up mode and resumes normal operation.
LCD
The keypad has a two line, twenty characters LCD display. The display is
backlit with LEDs for low light conditions.
The LCD display text is controlled by commands from the panel. The
keypad will also display information on the LCD upon wake-up (“keypad
status”) and in response to certain key press combinations.
The LCD is capable of displaying over 200 characters and symbols.
Autonomous Keypad Commands and User Prompts
In most operations, the keypad will only send key presses to the panel and
in response the panel will update the display, LED and tone annunciations
as needed to reflect the current state of the system.
When doing an initial installation or manually activated program updates
the keypad will function autonomously and provide user prompts without
intervention by the panel.
Entering autonomous keypad command operation: When the keypad
detects the long press *, it will display the following user prompt on the
2-line LCD display:
SPECIAL COMMAND
<-- TOGGLE CHIME -->
A long press * key press message is sent to the panel at this time. At
this point, the panel may respond to disallow the operation of special
commands if special commands are disabled. The keypad will display the
reason the command is disallowed and abort the autonomous command
mode:
SPECIAL COMMANDS DISABLED
Alarm history
The alarm history command is serviced by the ARM DISPLAY message
packet. Up to 5 alarm events are sent from the panel to the keypad in a
single message packet. These events are displayed one event at a time
on the LCD. The user may scroll through these events by pressing the
keys. Pressing OK exits the display (and autonomous command
operation).
Display example with 3 alarm events:
07/22/11 1:55PM
ZONE 32 ALARM -->
07/20/11 11:55AM
<-- ZONE 21 ALARM -->
06/17/11 12:55AM
<-- ZONE 32 ALARM
Arming history
The arming history command is serviced by the ARM DISPLAY message
packet. Individual arm or disarm events are sent from the panel to the
keypad in a single message packet; if arming, any bypassed zones are
also included (up to 15) in the same message packet. These events are
displayed one event at a time on the LCD. The user may scroll through
these events and bypassed zones by pressing the
keys.
When viewing the last event in the list, pressing the key when displaying
an event with no bypassed zones or the last bypassed zone listed will
cause the keypad to send the key press to the panel, which in turn will
provide a DISPLAY ARM message packet for the next event in the panel’s
arming history.
When viewing the first event in the list, pressing the key when displaying
an arm or disarm event will send the key press to the panel, which will
provide a DISPLAY ARM message packet for the previous event in the
panel’s arming history.
Pressing OK exits the display (and autonomous command operation).
Display example with 3 arming events, the first one with two bypassed
zones:
07/22/11 6:55AM
KFOB 05 ARM AWAY -->
07/22/11 6:55AM
<-- BYPASS ZONE 05 -->
07/22/11 6:55AM
<-- BYPASS ZONE 08 -->
07/22/11 9:55PM
<-- USER 05 ARM HOME -->
07/20/11 5:30PM
<-- USER 05 DISARMED
Keypad Low Battery
The keypad communicates a low battery condition to the panel through
the low battery bit set in the KEY PRESS message. If the battery is low,
on keypad wake up the keypad will indicate a fault condition (beep and
flash the LED red once) while briefly displaying on the LCD a low battery
prompt, instead of the usual keypad ready message:
PLEASE REPLACE
KEYPAD BATTERIES
Once the low battery condition occurs, key presses will also be annunciated
by a double click instead of the usual single click.
If the battery condition continues to deteriorate to marginal levels, the
keypad may take measures to conserve power by limiting backlight
operation or reducing inactivity timeout before going into standby.
Communication Failure
If the keypad is unable to communicate with the panel during operation
and receives a RETRY FAIL message from its transceiver, it will indicate
a fault condition (beep and flash the LED red once) and display a prompt
to the user:
PLEASE RE-ENTER
KEY SEQUENCE
If the keypad is active and the condition persists for more than 15
seconds, the keypad will repeat the fault indication. This will recur until
the communication is restored or until the keypad times out and goes into
standby mode.
Piezo Annunciator
The keypad has a piezo sounder to indicate system conditions to the user.
A short beep will occur every time a key is pressed. In addition, commands
from the panel will instruct the sounder to operate in a specified pattern.
Bicolor LED
The keypad has a red / green LED controlled by commands from the panel.
KEYPAD WIRELESS SYSTEM
The keypad has a wireless transceiver module that communicates with the
microprocessor via a serial UART. The internal antenna is used for both
transmit and receive functions. The transceiver module is mounted in a
shielded enclosure for RFI protection.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT RADIO DEVICES
1. AlarmForce radio controls provide a reliable communications link and fill an
important need in portable wireless signaling. However, there are some limitations
which must be observed.
2. For US installations only: the radios are required to comply with FCC rules and
regulations including FCC part 15 devices. As such, they have limited transmitter
power and therefore limited range.
3. A receiver cannot respond to more than one transmitted signal at a time and
may be blocked by radio signals that occur on or near their operating frequencies
regardless of code settings.
4. Changes or modifications to the device not expressly approved by AlarmForce
could void the authority to operate the equipment.
5. Infrequently used radio links should be tested regularly to protect against
undetected interference or fault.
