KEYPAD HOOKUP
1. Each keypad has four coloured leads: red (RED), black (BLK), yellow (YEL), and green (GRN). Connect the leads to the
corresponding terminals on the panel.
2. Up to 3 keypads may be connected in parallel. DO NOT connect multiple keypads on the same loop.
3. The wiring table gives the maximum wire run for various gauges of wire. Wire run lengths are calculated on the
maximum current drawn by the keypad (when all lights are ON).
4. For standby loading purposes, it is recommended that a current draw of 20 mA per keypad be used. This represents the
panel in a disarmed state with two zones in alarm.
Note: If two wires of the same gauge are paralleled, the run length can be doubled. e.g. If eight 22AWG wires (2 RED, 2
BLK, 2 YEL, 2 GRN) are run to the keypad, the run length would double from 540 feet (164.5 m) to 1080 feet (329 m).
