The Power keypad package includes the following parts:

You should mount the keypad where it is accessible to designated
points of entry and exit. Once you have selected a dry and secure loca-
tion, perform the following steps to mount the keypad.

1.  Removing the keypad from the backplate for the first time.

(a) Position the keypad as indicated, insert screwdriver and rotate. 

2.  Removing the keypad from backplate once mounted.

(a) Open door, holding it 90° to the keypad, as shown below. 
(b) Insert screwdriver into slot located under the door hinge and
rotate the screwdriver. 

1. Secure Keypad to wall using mounting holes. Use all 4 screws pro-

vided unless mounting on a single gang box.

2. Place keypad into hooks on the backplate and swing down to

engage.

3. Run wire through wiring slot or knockouts. Connect Keybus and

PGM/Zone wiring to keypad.  Place tamper switch into tamper hole
on backplate.

4. Remove keypad from hooks. Place keypad into backplate, ensure

the wire is pushed back into the wall as much as possible. Route the
wire inside the keypad ensuring high components are avoided. Snap
the front assembly closed, ensuring that there is no pressure to the
keypad from the wire below.

1. Before wiring the unit, ensure that all power (AC transformer and

battery) is disconnected from the control panel.

2. Connect the four Keybus wires from the

control panel (red, black, yellow and
green) to the keypad terminals. Refer to
diagram:

3. If programmed as an input, you can

connect a device - such as a door contact
- to the ‘P/Z’ terminal of the keypad.
This eliminates the need to run wires back to the control panel for
the device. To connect the zone, run one wire from the device to the
‘P/Z’ terminal and the other wire from the device to the B (black)
terminal. For powered devices, run the red wire to the R (positive)
