7.1.3 Operation Description
EKB2 LCD screen is intended for displaying alarm system status messages and alerts. Message READY is displayed on the screen that
no zones are violated or no troubles are present and the system is prepared for arming. Message NOT READY (and TBL) shows up in
case of zone violation or if system troubles are present. The alarm system cannot be armed until the troubles are removed or violated
zone (-s) is restored, bypassed or set up to operate under Force mode. The following troubles allow system arming when present:
• backup battery problem;
• main power supply failure;
• date & time not set;
• GSM connection problem.
The built-in mini buzzer uses two types of sound signals – three short beeps and one long beep. Three short beeps stand for suc-
cessfully carried out conguration, one long beep – for invalid conguration. In addition, the mini-buzzer provides continuous short
beeps in case of alarm.
EKB2 can be used even in dark premises as the LCD screen and keys are illuminated continuously. In case of alarm the keyboard il-
lumination level is boosted and stays in this state until the system is disarmed. The illumination level lowers down in 3 minutes after
the last key-touch while the system is disarmed.
7.1.3.1 EKB2 Zone & Tamper
Keyboard EKB2 has one built-in zone Z1 and one tamper button. By default, the keyboard zone Z1 is disabled. The keyboard zone
can be enabled by SMS, EKB2 keyboard, EKB3 keyboard and ELDES Conguration Tool. When Z1 is enabled, it operates like any other
system zone, therefore a sensor can be connected to it. In addition, Z1 and COM contacts must be connected with resistor of 5,6kΩ
nominal.
The tamper button is intended for monitoring the enclosure status of EKB2, therefore the system causes alarm if the enclosure is il-
legally opened. Keyboard zone Z1 must be enabled and resistor connected even if the tamper button alone is required.
7.1.3.2 Arming & Disarming
The arming and disarming process is performed by entering a valid user (keyboard) password. The default user (keyboard) password
is 1111.
When the system is being armed, the screen displays icon and initiates the Exit Delay countdown intended for user to leave the
secured area. After the countdown is complete the system locks the keyboard menu, displays icon on the screen for 5 seconds and
returns to the main screen view displaying ARMED message (optional feature).
After the user enters the secured area, the system begins the Entry Delay countdown intended to enter a valid user (keyboard) pass-
word. After the successful disarm process the system unlocks the keyboard menu and displays icon on the screen for 2 seconds.
In case user does not enter a valid password during the countdown, the system causes alarm and displays the alarm message in the
main screen view. The last alarm message stays displayed in the main screen view until a valid user (keyboard) password is entered.
In addition, after 10 unsuccessful attempts to enter a password, the system disables the arming/disarming possibility for 2 minutes.
NOTE: Arming & disarming can only be performed using a keyboard password assigned to the same partition as the keyboard.
