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 

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.  

 

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. 

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. 

Prox Reader Address Mode 

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.  

 

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.   

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 re-
enter 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
