Internal Speaker Operation
All keypads emit standard tones for key presses, entry delay, and system alerts. The speaker also provides distinct
burglary, fire, zone monitor, and prewarn cadences. The keypads provide an alternate prewarn with alarm cadence that
occurs when the status list displays a zone alarm.
External Sounder Operation
The 691 provides a switched ground for an external sounder that turns on with the keypad on-board sounder. The sounder
activates when the keypad switches to ground. The sounder silences when the keypad restores. Power Limited, maximum
current of switched ground is 50mA @ 30 VDC.
1. Connect the negative side of an external sounder to the violet wire on the keypad wiring harness.
2. Connect the positive side of the sounder to the positive side of a power source rated at 30 VDC or less.
3. Ground the negative side of the power source to the black wire of the keypad bus.
End-User Options
All keypads provide three keypad adjustments the end-user can make through a User Options Menu. The user can also view
the keypad model number and address.
On all keypads press and hold the Back Arrow (<—) and CMD (COMMAND) keys for two seconds to access User Options. The
keypad display changes to SET BRIGHTNESS. Use the CMD key to display the next Option or press the Back Arrow to exit.
