Elk M1KPAS User Manual

Keypad Arming Station ELK-M1KPAS

APPLICATION

The ELK-M1KPAS is an easy to use, slim line keypad for use in arming
and disarming any of the M1 Family Cross Platform Controls. It fits into
a single gang electrical box and utilizes any standard decorator style
faceplate. It handles basic functionality and displays system status
using 3 LEDs: Green for "Ready", Yellow for "Trouble", and Red for
"Armed". The low cost and small footprint of the M1KPAS Arming
Station makes it ideal for use as an alternative to the larger and more
costly LCD keypads. It is particularly well suited for partitioned jobs
such as an office, workshop, garage, etc., where full functionality is not
necessarily required. The 12 button keypad is backlighted with blue
LEDs and has quick arm keys for Exit (Away) and Stay. It also has a
"F" key (function key) for use in in activating 1 of 6 programmable
function operations.

Features and Specifications subject to change without notice.

** The local AHJ (authority having jurisdiction) or State and local regulations may prohibit the installation of a M1KPAS

Arming Station into an electrical box together with any high voltage circuits. In some cases a special dual voltage box or
divider partition (separator) may be successfully used. One known manufacturer of these is "Carlon". Visit your local
home center or electrical supply company for availability. Elk specifically warns against improper use, particularly
unauthorized installation or servicing in conjunction with high voltage circuits except by licensed and qualified high
voltage personnel. Elk is not responsible for damages or harmful consequences. Always consult the local AHJ and
follow state and local regulations. In some cases the best solution is to install the M1KPAS into a separate and dedicated
single gang box.

INSTALLATION OF ELK-M1KPAS KEYPAD ARMING STATION

The M1KPAS mounts into a standard electrical box. Depending upon local/state regulations it may be permissible to mount an M1KAS
alongside other electrical devices provided that a special low voltage divider insert and/or low voltage combo box is utlized. Select a location
with an ambient temperature range between 32

°

and 120° F (0° to +49° C). Avoid direct sunlight if possible. CAT5 or CAT6 wire (4 pair,
8 conductor) is highly recommended for all data bus cables and the extra wires may be required for data return paths where multiple
homeruns or devices are installed. NOTE: Please refer to the M1 or EZ8 Installation Manual for important information about Data Bus
termination when multiple homerun cables are installed. Minimum conductor size is 22 or 24 gauge. Maximum resistance per wire is
25 Ohms. Device placement beyond 1000' is not recommended. DO NOT SPLICE OR CONNECT WIRES WITH THE CONTROL POWER ON.

1. Turn off all power to the control.

2. Splice the Black, Red, White, and Green wires of the 4-wire cable assembly to the data bus wires. Plug the connector onto the back

of the M1KPAS. Tuck the wires and splices neatly into electrical box.

3. Fasten the top and bottom mounting ears to the electrical box using flat head #6 machine screws.

4. Turn on the power to the control. One or more of the lights on the M1KAS may be illuminated indicating the unit has power, however

it will not become operation until it has been assigned an address and has been enrolled into the Control. See steps on next page.

Ideal setup is 2 home run cables with daisy chained devices. The last device on each cable MUST have a terminating resistor
installed (activated) via the 2 pin header/jumpers marked JP1 on M1KPAS & M1KP2 Keypads and expanders, JP2 on M1KP
Keypads. Place a black shorting cap from hardware pack onto the 2 pins to install a 120 Ohm resistor across data lines A & B.
NOTE: Place a shorting cap on JP3 of Main Board if there is only 1 data bus cable. See diagrams on multiple cables.

WARNING! The RS485 Data Bus must NEVER have more that 2 terminating resistors header/jumpers installed.

The ideal way to connect multiple home run cables is with an ELK-M1DBH Data Bus Hub. It accepts CAT5 or CAT6 cable with RJ45 plugs on the ends.

It does all the work of series connecting the DATA lines A & B and provides a clean, organized management of the data bus wires.

Address and Enrollment

Keypads and expander devices that operate on the RS-485 4-wire data bus must each have a unique address setting from 1 to 16
within their device TYPE. Keypads are device TYPE 1, input (zone) expanders are TYPE 2, output expanders are TYPE 3, etc. The
purpose of device types is so that the address numbers can be re-used in each different device type. It is OK to have a Keypad, a Zone
Expander, and a Output Expander all set to address 2 on the same data bus since each device is a different device type. It is NOT OK

to have duplications of addresses within the same device type. I.E. Multiple keypads on a control cannot be set to 'like' addresses.

The M1KPAS is factory preset to address 16. Valid addresses are 1 to 16. Whenever an M1 control is powered up for the first time only
the first keypad (address 1) is automatically enrolled. Any

additional keypads must be manually enrolled from “Menu 1 - Bus Module

Enrollment”. Before enrolling each device will need to be set with an address.

Setting the Address of an M1KPAS Arming Station:

1. Press and hold the " * " key for 10 seconds. This will place the M1KPAS arming station into setup (bootloader) mode which

is indicated by the numeric keys blinking On and Off together. NOTE: Another way to access the setup mode is to remove
power by unplugging the data bus cable and applying power while holding any key pressed.

2. Once the unit is in setup mode press the "F" key followed immediately by the "1" key. The unit will now display its current

address setting utilizing the Ready (Green), Trouble (Yellow), Armed (Red) LEDs and the EXIT and STAY keys. Each LED
or key has an assigned binary value. See table below. The EXIT key (value of 16) will be lighted by itself when the M1KPAS
is fresh from the factory.

3. Enter the desired new address number from 1 to 16 and press the EXIT key. OR Press the EXIT key by itself to exit without

changing the address.

4. To exit completely from the setup mode press the EXIT key again. The numeric keys will stop blinking On and OFF.

5. The Ready, Trouble, Armed, Exit, and Stay keys will all begin lighting in a clockwise process to indicate that the keypad has

not been enrolled with the control. Proceed to the ENROLLING process to make the keypad operational.

SYSTEM NOTES

! If the Ready light is flashing, it indicates the system can be armed even though one or more zones are

violated. This only occurs if the violated zones are programmed as force-armable. Arming will temporarily

exclude these violated zones from the system. If a force armed zone becomes secure while the system

is armed, it will automatically become live, meaning that it can activate an alarm if violated. This feature

is handy for a garage door. The system can be armed while the door is up. After backing out of the

garage and closing the door, the garage door will become normal and it will be re-included into service.

Checking the Ready Status

secure or bypass the violated zone(s).

! When the Ready light is off, one or more zones are violated. The system cannot be armed until you

! A display style keypad will be required in order to identify violated zones.

! When the Ready light is on steady the alarm system is ready to be armed.

! To prevent someone from hunting for a code the system can be set to temporarily lockout the keypad

codes can be either 4 or 6 digits (refer to System Notes).

after repeated incorrect codes. Consult your installer or installation record sheet for the number of

incorrect attempts allowed.

Stay Key - The light behind this key will be ON when the system is armed in the Stay (occupied) mode. Only

perimeter (doors and windows) zones should be active. Interior zones are ignored in the stay mode.

* Key - This key serves as a clear or reset key. If an error is made while entering digits, pressing this key

clears the error. Three presses is a master clear.

# Key - This key is currently not used on the M1KPAS.

"F" Function Key - To activate any one of the 6 programmable special functions you must press the "F" key

followed by any of the keys 1 thru 6 within a 4 second time window. The activation is programmed by the

installer for special events or conditions such as Fire, Police, or Medical emergency. These functions may also

be used for non-alarm type applications such as: gate or door openers, lights, irrigation controls, etc. Activation

may be programmed for single or double press, which helps prevent accidental activation. If double press is

programmed, it will be necessary to repeat the exact same keystrokes twice, back to back in a short time

period. The double press is used as a safeguard against accidental activation.

User Codes

! User Codes are required for arming, disarming, and to authorize certain features of your system. User

! If a mistake is made while entering a user code, press the asterisk ( * ) key and enter the code again.

Exit Key - The light behind this key will be ON when the system is armed in the Away (not occupied) mode.

All perimeter and interior zones should be active in the away mode.

Ready Troub le Arme d

ARMING STATION OPERATION GUIDE

Ready Light - Light is ON when all burglar zones are secure and the

system is OK for arming. If this light is OFF, one or more zones are

violated (not secure) and the system cannot be armed. If light is

FLASHING it indicates that the system may be "Force Armed". Force

arming permits partial security even though one or more zones are

violated. Force armed zones are temporarily bypassed. If a force

armed zone becomes secure it will be re-instated into the system. For

maximum security, all zones should be secured before the system is

armed.

Trouble Light - Light is ON when any system trouble (AC Fail, Low

Battery, etc.) exists on the system. In addition, this light will be ON if

a zone is manually bypassed. NOTE: The M1KPAS Arming Station

cannot be used to manually bypass or unbypass a zone. It will be

necessary to have an LCD display keypad (M1KP or M1KP2 to

diagnose trouble indications.

Armed Light- Light is ON when the system is armed. The mode of

arm will be indicated by the lighted Exit or Stay pushbuttons. Light is

OFF when the system is disarmed. If an alarm activation occurs this

light will blink as an alarm memory indication until a user code is

entered to acknowledge the alarm.
