AJAX Keypad Wireless Touch Keyboard User Manual

AJAX Keypad Wireless Touch Keyboard

KeyPad is a wireless indoor touch-sensitive keyboard for managing the Ajax security system. Designed for indoor use. With this device, the user can arm and disarm the system and see its security status. KeyPad is protected against attempts to guess the passcode and can raise a silent alarm when the passcode is entered under duress.
Connecting to the Ajax security system via a secured Jeweller radio protocol, KeyPad communicates with the hub at a distance of up to 1,700 m in line of sight.

KeyPad operates with Ajax hubs only and does not support connecting via ocBridge Plus or uartBridge integration modules.

Operating Principle

KeyPad is a stationary control device located indoors. Its functions include arming/disarming the system with a numerical combination (or just by pressing the button), activating Night Mode, indicating the security mode, blocking when someone tries to guess the passcode and raising the silent alarm when someone forces the user to disarm the system.
KeyPad indicates the state of communication with the hub and system malfunctions. Buttons are highlighted once the user touches the keyboard so you can enter the passcode without external lighting. KeyPad also uses a beeper sound for indication.
To activate KeyPad, touch the keyboard: the backlight will switch on, and the beeper sound will indicate that KeyPad has woken up.
If the battery is low, the backlight switches on at a minimum level, regardless of the settings.
If you do not touch the keyboard for 4 seconds, KeyPad dims the backlight, and after another 12 seconds, the device switches to the sleep mode.

When switching to sleep mode, KeyPad clears the entered commands!

KeyPad supports passcodes of 4-6 digits. The entered passcode is sent to the hub after pressing the button: (arm), (disarm) or (Night mode). Incorrect commands can be reset with the C button (Reset).
When incorrect passcode is entered three times during 30 minutes, KeyPad locks for the time preset by the administrator user. Once KeyPad is locked, the hub a KeyPad allows arming the system without passcode: by pressing the button (Arm). This feature is disabled by default. When the function button(*) is pressed without entering the passcode, the hub executes the command assigned to this button in the app.
KeyPad can notify a security company of the system being disarmed by force. The Duress Code – unlike the panic button – does not activate sirens. KeyPad and the app notify of successful disarming the system, but the security company receives an alarm.

Indication

When touching KeyPad, it wakes up highlighting the keyboard and indicating the security mode: Armed, Disarmed, or Night Mode. The security mode is always actual, regardless of the control device that was used to change it (the key fob or app).

Connecting

Before connecting the device:

1. Switch on the hub and check its Internet connection (the logo glows white or green).
2. Install the Ajax app. Create the account, add the hub to the app, and create at least one room.
3. Make sure that the hub is not armed, and it does not update by checking its status in the Ajax app.

Only users with administrator rights can add a device to the app

How to connect KeyPad to the hub:

1. Select the Add Device option in the Ajax app.
2. Name the device, scan/write manually the QR Code (located on the body and packaging), and select the location room.
3. Select Add – the countdown will begin.

The wireless network of the hub (at the same protected object).
A request for connection to the hub is transmitted for a short time at the moment of switching on the device.
If KeyPad failed to connect to the hub, switch it off for 5 seconds and retry.
The connected device will appear in the app device list. Update of the device statuses in the list depends on the detector ping interval in the hub settings (the default value is 36 seconds).

There are no pre-set passwords for KeyPad. Before using a KeyPad, set all necessary passwords: common, personal, and duress code if you are forced to disarm the system.

Selecting the Location

The location of the device depends on its remoteness from the hub, and obstacles hindering the radio signal transmission: walls, floors, large objects inside the room.

The device developed only for indoor use.

Do not install KeyPad:

1. Near the radio transmission equipment, including that operates in 2G/3G/4G mobile networks, Wi-Fi routers, transceivers, radio stations, as well as an Ajax hub (it uses a GSM network).
2. Close to electrical wiring.
3. Close to metal objects and mirrors that can cause radio signal attenuation
4. Closer than 1 m to the hub.

Check the Jeweller signal strength at the installation location

During testing, the signal level is displayed in the app and on the keyboard with security mode indicators (Armed mode), (Disarmed mode), (Night mode) and malfunction indicator X.
If the signal level is low (one bar), we cannot guarantee the stable operation of the device. Take all possible measures to improve the quality of the signal. At least, move the device: even a 20 cm shift can significantly improve the quality of signal reception.
If the device has low or unstable signal strength even after moving, use a ReX radio signal range extender.
KeyPad is designed for operation when fixed to the vertical surface. When using KeyPad in hands, we cannot guarantee successful operation of the sensor keyboard.

Security management of the entire facility using a common password
Enter the common password and press the arming / disarming I Night mode activation .
For example: 1234
Group security management with a common password
Enter the common password, press the , enter the group ID and press the arming I disarming I Night mode activation .
For example: 1234 2 0

What is Group ID?
If a group is assigned to the KeyPad (Arming/ Disarming permission field in the keypad settings), you do not need to enter the group ID. To manage the arming mode of this group, entering a common or personal password is sufficient.
Please note that if a group is assigned to the KeyPad, you will not be able to manage Night mode using a common password.
In this case, Night mode can only be managed using a personal password (if the disarming :.J / Night mode activation (2).
For example: 2 * 1234 0

What is User ID?
If a group is assigned to the KeyPad (Arming/ Disarming permission field in the keypad settings), you do not need to enter the group ID. To manage the arming mode of this group, entering a personal password is sufficient.

Using a duress password
A duress password allows you to raise a silent alarm and imitate alarm deactivation. A silent alarm means that the Ajax app and sirens will not shout and expose you. But a security company and other users will be alerted instantly. You can use both personal and common duress password.

For example: 4321 —+ J
To use a personal duress password:
Enter user ID, press , then enter personal duress password and press the disarming key J.
For example: 2 —+ —+ 4422 —+ J

How the fire alarm muting function works

Using the KeyPad, you can mute the interconnected fire detectors alarm by pressing the Function button (if the corresponding setting is enabled). The reaction of the system to pressing a button depends on the state of the system:

• Interconnected FireProtect Alarms have already propagated – by the first press of the Function button, all sirens of the fire detectors are muted, except for those that registered the alarm. Pressing the button again mutes the remaining detectors.
• The interconnected alarms delay time lasts – by pressing the Function button, the siren of the triggered FireProtect/FireProtect Plus detector is muted.

Functionality Testing

Installation

Before installing the detector, make sure that you have selected the optimal location and it is in compliance with the guidelines contained in this manual!
KeyPad should be attached to the vertical surface.

1. Attach the SmartBracket panel to the surface using bundled screws, using at least two fixing points (one of them – above the tamper). After selecting other attachment hardware, make sure that they do not damage or deform the panel.
   The double-sided adhesive tape may be only used for temporary attachment of KeyPad. The tape will run dry in course of time, which may result in the falling of the KeyPad and damage of the device.

2. Put KeyPad on the attachment panel and tighten the mounting screw on the body underside.

As soon as the KeyPad is fixed in SmartBracket, it will blink with the LED X (Fault) -this will be a signal that the tamper has been actuated.

The battery installed in the KeyPad ensures up to 2 years of autonomous operation (with the inquiry frequency by the hub of 3 minutes). If the KeyPad battery is low, the security system will send the relevant notices, and the malfunction indicator will smoothly lights up and goes out after each successful passcode entry.
