3.1 | Mount the keypad
3.2 | Wire to the control panel
You can surface mount the keypad, or mount it to standard
electrical boxes, including single gang boxes.
Mounting the keypad:
1. Use the base as a template to mark the desired mounting
surface. Refer to Figure 1.1 for mounting hole and wiring
locations.
2. Pull the wiring through the desired wire opening in the
base.
3. Use the appropriate mounting hardware (supplied) to
mount the base to the desired mounting surface. Refer
to Figure 1.1 for mounting hole and wiring locations
.
When you wire the keypad to a control panel, use the control
panel SDI2 terminals labeled R, Y, G, B (PWR, A, B, COM).
Connect them to the keypad terminals labeled R, Y, G, B.
Refer to Figure 3.1.
You can connect keypads to the SDI2 data bus by parallel wire
run from the control panel to each keypad, wire from keypad to
keypad, or a combination of the two techniques.
Refer to Figure 3.2.

The B925F/B926F keypad is an SDI2 bus compatible device.
Each keypad has an LCD display that shows two-line system
messages, and user adjustable options such as volume and
backlight.
The keypad connects to the SDI2 bus on the control panel
using terminal wiring. You can connect more than one keypad
to the control panel by wiring them in parallel.
You can program, diagnose, and troubleshoot the system from
the control panel keypad as well as remotely through RPS.
