Freedom F-64TP Touchpad

2

The NAPCO Freedom F-64TP is a “smart” interac­tive menu-driven Touchpad with an integral motion
sensor, integral siren, and integral speaker designed
for your NAPCO control panel. It is designed for ease
of use and to eliminate false alarms by using the exit
door deadbolt for arming and disarming, rather than
memorized Touchpad codes. Its alphanumeric
screen not only displays the status of your system, the
speaker also provides step-by-step instructions to
guide you through all operations. In addition, alarms
can be silenced by the use of a uniquely coded digital
key called an "I-FOB".

All monitored door deadbolts must be engaged
before arming the system. Unbolted doors will display
on the Touchpad even if the doors are closed. The

Touchpad display scrolls all significant open or faulted
zones (except PIR's) and when this scrolling stops,
the system is ready to arm, even if the primary exit
door is open or unbolted. To Arm the system, simply
press either the STAY button (if staying within the
premises) or the AWAY button (if leaving), and then
engage the exit door deadbolt.

To disarm, simply unlock the deadbolt--no need to
enter memorized entry codes that other systems re­quire, thus preventing false alarms.

This booklet contains important information about
the operation of your system with this Freedom F­64TP Touchpad . Read it carefully and keep it handy
for future reference. Check the Glossary for an expla­nation of terms that may be unfamiliar to you.

You'll probably find subjects mentioned in this book­let that do not apply to your system. NAPCO control
panels have such a wide variety of features that few
security systems, if any, will ever need them all. Your
alarm professional has chosen appropriate features
for your particular needs.

Regardless of how your system has been config­ured, rest assured that it has been carefully designed
and engineered to the highest industry standards. To
assure optimum safety and security, familiarize your­self with this equipment. Periodically check its condi­tion and state of readiness by testing it at least once a
week in both the ac/battery and battery-only modes
(ask your alarm professional how to make these
tests).

SYSTEM DISARMED

Please note the following information when the system is disarmed:

When the system is disarmed, the premises is NOT protected from intruders--but the keypad
alarm buttons FIRE, AUX, and POLICE are ALWAYS active (as are any other "24 hour" devices
that the installer provided for your system). See page 16 for more information regarding these
Emergency Buttons.

When all perimeter zones (except the local exit/entry door) are secure, the arming sequence can
be started by pressing STAY or AWAY. The green STATUS light must be on steady and the
LCD window will display "SYSTEM READY". If the local exit/entry door is open or unlocked, the
second line of the LCD will scroll between the date / time display and "DOOR UNLOCKED".

When the system is NOT ready to arm, the green STATUS light will be off and the LCD window
will scroll "SYSTEM NOT READY" followed by all faulted perimeter zones and open/unbolted doors,
including the local exit/entry door.

To prevent confusion during arming, interior zones (such as motion sensors, trip beams, etc.), do
not scroll on the Touchpad LCD window when activated. The status of all zones (including the
interior zones) can be displayed in the LCD window by answering YES to the "DISPLAY OPEN

ZONES Y/N" Touchpad Menu Mode function (see Touchpad Menu Mode, page 21).
