mount the keypad base, wire to the control panel, and attach 

the keypad to the base.

3.1 | Mount the keypad

3.2 | Wire to the control panel

You can surface mount the keypad, or mount it to standard 

electrical boxes, including single gang boxes.

Mounting the keypad:

1.  Use the base as a template to mark the desired mounting 

surface. Refer to 

Figure 1.1 

for mounting hole and wiring 

locations.

2.  Pull the wiring through the desired wire opening in the 

base.

3.  Use the appropriate mounting hardware (supplied) to 

mount the base to the desired mounting surface. Refer 
to 

Figure 1.1 

for mounting hole and wiring locations

.

When you wire the keypad to a control panel, use the control 

panel terminals labeled R, Y, G, B (PWR, A, B, COM). Connect 

them to the keypad terminals labeled R, Y, G, B. Refer to 

Figure 3.1

.

You can connect keypads to the SDI2 data bus by parallel wire 

run from the control panel to each keypad, wire from keypad to 

keypad, or a combination of the two techniques. Refer to 

Figure 3.2

.

Reconnect the keypad to the base by sliding the keypad onto 

the base (reverse of 

Step 2

). The keypad automatically locks 

onto the base. Apply power to the system.

Caution!

Remove all power (AC and battery) before making any 

connections. Failure to do so might result in personal 

injury and/or equipment damage.

2 | SDI2 address switches

Two switches determine the address for the keypad. The control 

panel uses the address for communications. Use a slotted 
screwdriver to set the switches. 

Figure 2.1: Unlocking the keypad

Figure 2.2: Removing the keypad from the base

Set the address switches per the control panel configuration. 

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 2.4

 

shows the address switch setting for address 1.

B930 keypads are SDI2 bus compatible devices.

 

Each keypad 

has user adjustable options such as volume and display 

brightness, and an LCD display that shows five-line system 

messages. 

B930 keypads connect to the SDI2 bus on the control panel 

using terminal wiring. You can connect more than one keypad 

to the control panel by wiring them in parallel.

You can program, diagnose, and troubleshoot the system from 

the control panel keypad as well as remotely through Remote 

Programming Software (RPS).
