2.0 INSTALLATION

2.1 CONNECTING THE KEYPAD

The Digiplex™ LED Keypads are connected to the control
panel's communication network in a star and/or daisy chain
configuration. The 4-wire communication network provides
power and two-way communication between the control panel
and all modules connected to it. Connect the four terminals
labeled red, black, green and yellow of each keypad to the
corresponding terminals on the control panel as shown in Figure

2.1. Refer to the Digiplex Control Panel's Reference &
Installation Manual for the maximum allowable installation
distance from the control panel.

2.2 CONNECTING KEYPAD ZONES

Each keypad has one traditional hardwired input terminal,
allowing you to connect one detector or door contact directly to
the keypad. For example, a door contact located at the entry
point of an establishment can be wired directly to the input
terminal of the entry point keypad instead of wiring the door
contact all the way to the control panel.

Connect the device to the keypad's input terminal as shown in
Figure 2.1.

4 Installer’s Manual

The keypad zone follows the control panel’s EOL
definition.

In order to communicate its status to the control panel, devices
connected to the keypad's input terminal must be assigned to a
zone in the control panel and the zone's parameters must be
defined.

The control panel does not recognize tampers
originating from the keypad zone.

For more information on zone assignment, please refer to the
Digiplex Control Panel's Reference & Installation Manual. Please
note that even with the ATZ (zone doubling) feature enabled, the
keypad supports only one detection device.

Digiplex LED Keypads 5

2.3 PROGRAMMABLE OUTPUT (PGM)

Each keypad has one on-board PGM. A PGM is a programmable
output that toggles to its opposite state (i.e. a normally open PGM
will close) when a specific event has occurred in the system (see
section 5.2 of this manual). Upon activation, the PGM can provide
50mA to any device connected to it. If the current drawn is to
exceed the current limit, a relay should be connected to the PGM
as shown in Figure 2.1.

2.4 FINDING AN UNLABELED KEYPAD’S SERIAL NUMBER

If the keypad’s serial number is missing, you can view the serial
number by entering 000 in Step 3 of Module Programming Mode
(see section 3.1 of this manual, page 7). The serial number will

illuminate one number at a time as you press the button
([10] LED represents zero).

4.2 PARTITION ASSIGNMENT

SECTION 001: OPTIONS [1] TO [4]

Each keypad in the Digiplex system can be assigned to one or more
partitions. In section [001], options [1] to [4] represent partitions 1
through 4 respectively. To assign the keypad to a partition, enable the
option that corresponds to the desired partition. For example, to assign
the keypad to partitions 1 and 3, press the buttons 1 then 3 in section
[001] (Step 5, Module Programming Mode, page 8). The numerical
LEDs 1 and 3 will illuminate. (default: partitions 1 - 4 are enabled)

4.3 ZONE DISPLAY

SECTION 009 (F(FOORR 20-Z 20-ZOONNEE K KEEYYPPAADDSS O ONNLLYY))

The 20-Zone Keypad can be programmed to only display a
certain sequence of zones in a Partitioned System. Use Level
Programming (see section 3.2.3) to enable only one option per
keypad. The 48-Zone Keypads cannot be programmed to display
certain zone sequences, but will display the state of all the zones
in all the keypad’s assigned partitions.

For 20-zone keypads:

Option [0]: LEDs 1 to 20 correspond to zones 01 through 20 (default)
Option [1]: LEDs 1 to 20 correspond to zones 21 through 40

For example: Partition 1 = zones 01 to 20. Partition 2 = zones 21 to

40. A 20-Zone Keypad was installed in each partition. By enabling
option [1] on the keypad in Partition 2, LEDs 1 to 20 on that keypad
will represent zones 21 to 40.

5.0 PGM PROGRAMMING

5.1 PGM STATE

Section 005: Option [1]

The keypad's on-board PGM can be set as normally open or
normally closed. When an open PGM is activated, it will close the
circuit from ground and enable any devices connected to it. When
a closed PGM is activated, it will open the circuit and disable any
devices connected to it. When the PGM Activation Event occurs
(see section 5.2 of this manual), the PGM will switch to its
opposite state (i.e. open to closed or closed to open). The PGM
can provide 50mA to any device connected to it.

Option [5] OFF = PGM is Normally Open (default)
Option [5] ON = PGM is Normally Closed

5.2 PGM ACTIVATION EVENT

Section 007

The PGM Activation Event determines which event(s)
will activate the keypad's on-board PGM. (For details
on the available activation events, refer to the PGM

Programming Table in the Digiplex Programming

Guide)

Use the PGM Table to program a PGM Activation Event by
following these steps:

Digiplex LED Keypads 17

1) In section [007], enter the first digit where each digit from 8 to
F represents an event group (0 = PGM Disabled).

2) Then enter the second digit, which can be any digit from 0 to F
depending on the first digit chosen.

3) After entering the second digit, use Feature Select Programming

to enable/disable options [1] to [8]. Select up to eight specific
events as detailed in the PGM Programming Table.

These buttons represent the hexadecimal values from A to F:

[STAY] = A ([STAY] will illuminate)
[DISARM] = D ([A4] will illuminate)
[FORCE] = B ([FORCE] will illuminate)
[BYP] = E ([BYP] will illuminate)
[ARM] = C ([A1] will illuminate)
[MEM] = F ([MEM] will illuminate)

5.3 PGM DEACTIVATION EVENT

Section 008

Once the PGM Activation Event (see section 5.2 of this manual)
has occurred, the keypad's on-board PGM will return to its

18 Installer’s Manual

normal state (deactivate) when the event programmed in section
[008] occurs unless the keypad is in PGM Timed Mode (see
section 5.4 of this manual). The PGM Deactivation Event is
programmed in the same manner as the PGM Activation Event.

5.4 PGM TIMED MODE

Section 005: Option [2]

If the keypad is in PGM Timed Mode, the keypad's on-board
PGM will be deactivated according to the PGM Timer (see
section 5.5 of this manual) instead of the PGM Deactivation
Event.
Option [2] OFF
Option [2] ON = PGM will deactivate according to the PGM Timer

= Deactivation as per PGM Deactivation Event (default)

5.5 PGM TIMER

Section 006

If the keypad's on-board PGM is in PGM Timed Mode, the value
programmed in section [006] represents how long the PGM will
remain in its opposite state (see section 5.1 of this manual) after
being activated. To program the timer, enter a 3-digit decimal
value (000 to 255) in section [006]. The 3-digit value will be
multiplied by the PGM Base Time of 1 second or 1 minute (see
section 5.6 of this manual).

Digiplex LED Keypads 19

5.6 PGM BASE TIME

Section 005: Option [3]

If the keypad's on-board PGM is set in PGM Timed Mode (see
section 5.4 of this manual) you must define whether the value
programmed in section [006] is in minutes or seconds.
Option [3] OFF= PGM Base Time is 1 second (default)
Option [3] ON = PGM Base Time is 1 minute

5.7 PGM OVERRIDE

Section 005: Option [4]

When PGM Override is enabled, the keypad's on-board PGM will
ignore PGM Activation Events, PGM Deactivation Events, and
PGM Timers. It will remain in its normal state (see section 5.1 of
this manual) until the PGM Override is disabled. This option may
be used to test the PGM connections.
Option [4] OFF= PGM Override disabled (default)
Option [4] ON = PGM Override enabled
