Delete Keypad
Always use
Delete Keypad
when you wish to remove a wired keypad from the bus. Using
this option defaults the bus device number stored within the device (making the device
safe to add to other systems). Exit the Installer menu to save the change.
Note:
Remove all power from the system (battery and mains) before disconnecting any
keypad from the bus.
Holding down D and
at a keypad while its tamper switch is open clears the address from
the keypad. Normally, you should clear the address only by using
Delete Keypad
. If you
have used D and
at a keypad that is known to the system and still connected to the bus,
you can either power the control unit down and up again for it to recognise the keypad
(you will be prompted to press the A and
keys), or go to another keypad and use
Delete
Keypad
to delete the keypad.
Enable Keypad
Use this option and set the enable status to “No” if you suspect that the device is faulty,
and wish to remove it from service temporarily.
While the keypad is disabled, the control unit ignores all signals or input from the device,
but retains the name and other settings allocated to the device.
If a user tries to
set the system, the keypad displays “Tick to continue Disabled”, together
with the address of the disabled keypad, but will continue to set the system if the user
presses
.
Replace Keypad
Use this option if you wish to replace a wired keypad with a new keypad, but leave the
keypad's configuration intact in the control unit.
When you use
Replace Keypad
, the control unit disables the selected keypad, but retains
the keypad's configuration. You can then power down the system, disconnect the keypad
from the bus, and reconnect a new keypad to the bus.
When you power up the control unit again, the remaining keypads will show an alert that
the old keypad has been disabled. Select
Replace Keypad
again, select the
Add
option
and then hold down the A and
keys on the new keypad. The control unit will assign the
bus device address of the keypad you removed to the new keypad, along with all the
configuration from the old keypad. The new keypad will not need any further configuration.
A keypad can be replaced by any other wired keypad of the same or different type (as i-
on10 does not support the connection of zones to KEY-KPZ01 or KEY-FKPZ keypads).
Note:
If you are replacing a keypad on a single-keypad system, you will have to re-
program the new keypad with all the functions of the old keypad, including any non-default
ABCD key functions.
