Introduction

The Remote Keypad (2GIG-EDG-RK) is a wall-mounted, full-color, touch screen interface that 
provides all of the same easy-to-use keypad functions available on the Control Panel. It is 
designed for indoor use only and gives users the ability to arm and disarm the system, see the 
status of sensor zones, and control Smart Home devices.

Choose the Location for the 2GIG EDGE Remote Keypad’s Backplate

Before mounting the backplate, choose a location. Work with the end user to determine the best 
location. Always choose an indoor location protected from temperature extremes. 

Recommended Tools and Equipment

2-Conductor Power Wire (if connecting power supply to the panel’s terminal block)

 

Drywall Saw (or equivalent) 

 

Screwdrivers

 

Staple Gun

 

Wire Stripper 

Choose the Wall Location

To choose a wall location:

 

Always choose a location that is above ground and centrally located. Do NOT install 
the Panel below ground level, because wireless range may be impaired.

 

Do NOT connect the Panel to a light switch-controlled outlet.

 

Avoid choosing a location that can be easily viewed from doors or windows.

 

Avoid choosing a location that is within reach of small children.

 

Avoid choosing a location in direct sunlight.
