1.0 Description
The D720 Series is compatible with the following
control panels:
The D720 Series Keypads (D720, D720W, and D720B)
are low profile surface mount, four–wire units which
can annunciate up to eight protective points on its LED
display. They have a [COMMAND] bar, an [ENT]
(ENTER) key, and number keys from [0] to [9]. The
keys are used to enter personal passcodes and
command functions. When a key is pressed, the
keypad is backlit and the keypad emits a short beep to
indicate that the buffer has stored the entry.
When a passcode is completed, the [ENT] key must be
pressed to enter the passcode. If the [ENT] key is not
pressed, the passcode is ignored by the control panel.
The [ENT] key is not required to enter [COMMAND]
bar functions.
The keypad has a time window for accepting key
entries. After one key is pressed, the next key in the
passcode must be pressed within five seconds. After
five seconds have expired from the last key entry, the
entire entry is cleared and the passcode must be
restarted.

2.0 Function Keys
The D720 Series Keypad has three programmable
function keys labeled [A], [B], and [C]. Each key can be
programmed to perform many command functions of
the control panel. This enables the user to press one
button to perform command functions instead of
memorizing the command combination. For complete
details concerning the programming of the function
keys, refer to Section 7.3 Custom Functions on page 6.
3.0 Response Tones
The keypad contains a sounder used to annunciate
several system conditions and area conditions. The
response tones are as follows:
Table 2: D720 Series Response tones
Tone Description
Entry/Exit Delay The keypad beeps during the entry/exit delay period to remind the user to disarm the security system. This
is a programmable function.
Keystroke Entry As each key is touched the keypad emits a short beep to indicate that the entry has been stored in the
keypad buffer. This feature can be disabled using the dip switch on the D720 Series.

Protective points may be programmed to sound the area keypad buzzer after an arming command is
entered, to indicate that a point is faulted.
Some points may be programmed to sound a service tone when they are faulted. To silence the sounder
enter an arm/disarm passcode for that area, or enter [COMMAND][4].
Some points, such as fire points, may be programmed so the sounder cannot be silenced until
the point fault is corrected. For additional programming information, refer to the appropriate
program entry guide (refer to Table 5 on page 5).

4.2 Point status indicators
The keypad contains eight numbered indicator lights,
which are used to annunciate the condition of the
area’s protective points (Item 4 in Figure 1).
• Point Fault – While a point is faulted, its indicator
lights steadily. When the point is restored to
normal, the indicator goes “off.”
• Point Alarm Memory – A point alarm memory
condition causes the indicator light to flash “on”
and “off” rapidly. The indicator continues to flash
rapidly until the system is next armed or
[COMMAND][4] is entered.
• Bypassed Point – When a point is bypassed, the
point’s indicator flashes “on” and “off” slowly. The
indicator continues to flash slowly until the system
is disarmed, or with some systems, the point may
be unbypassed.
