Description
The D206 Keypad is a low-profile, surface-mount,
three-wire unit for use with the Radionics D2212
Control/Communicator. The D206 features an illumi-
nated keypad, a backlit two-line LCD text display, an
armed status indicator, three programmable emer-
gency keys, and a built-in sounder that emits several
distinct tones.
The control/communicator supplies all power and data
requirements for the D206 using a simple three-wire
connection. Depending on the panel’s available
auxiliary power, you can install up to eight D206
Keypads in one system.
You can program custom text locally using either the
D5200 Programmer or keypad programming. It takes
15 seconds after a programming session for new
custom text to replace the old text. If using the D5200,
be sure to lock the panel’s standby pin down
before
connecting the programmer. You can program text
remotely using the D5300, RAM II.
The Display
The D206 Keypad continuously displays the latest
status conditions of the security system. When a
series of events occur that affect the system, the D206
displays each event by priority, for example, the D206
displays alarms before point faults.
The LCD display is normally illuminated constantly.
You can choose to make it illuminate only after a key is
pressed. With this option, the display and backlights
extinguish after approximately 20 seconds. Press and
hold the CLEAR key for five seconds to toggle this
feature. If you’re turning the display off, hold the
CLEAR key until the display turns off. If you’re turning
it on, hold CLEAR until you hear a beep.
The Keys
The D206 Keypad has a CLEAR key, a * key, a # key,
three emergency keys, and number keys from 0 to 9.
These keys are used to enter functions and personal
passcodes into the panel.
Response Tones
The D206 Keypad contains a sounder used to annun-
ciate several system conditions. You can disable the
sounder if you choose.
Installing the Keypad
Select a Mounting Location - Do not locate the D206
in areas of extreme cold for example, in an uninsulated
building, refrigerated areas, outdoors, or in areas
where the temperature can drop below 32°. Do not
mount the keypad in a location exposed to direct
sunlight. Direct sunlight makes the display less visible
and may also damage the keypad components.
