32-Zone Wireless Keypads
K32IRF V1.1 / K32RF V2.0 Installation Guide
The K32IRF (32-Zone Wireless Fixed LCD Keypad) and K32RF (32-Zone Wireless LED Keypad) keypads provide the same functionality as
standard hardwired keypads, including system programming.
Unlike conventional wireless keypads which must be manually updated with new event information, the K32IRF displays new events live, as
they happen.
Step 1: Powering the Keypad
A. Installing the Batteries
K32IRF:
The K32IRF comes with it’s primary power source (two AA batteries) already installed. To power the keypad, with the backplate removed, open
the battery compartment and remove the plastic tab. IMPORTANT: Do not use rechargeable batteries to power the K32IRF.
K32RF:
With the backplate removed, install the 3.7V
DC
Li-ion rechargeable backup battery (included). Please note that this can be replaced by a
standard 3.7V
DC
cell phone type battery. The backup battery is for backup purposes only and is not the keypad’s primary power source.
B. Connecting the DC Source (optional for K32IRF)
When connecting the DC source, use the PA6 6V
DC
Power Adapter Plug only.
Do not use a 16V
AC
transformer.
