5.4. EKB3 Keypad and User/Master Code
ATTENTION: EKB3 keypad can operate either in 2-partition or in 4-partition mode. The description of the following procedure is based on
4-partition mode operation on EKB3 keypad. The arming/disarming procedure in 2-partition mode using EKB3 keypad would be carried out
identically to EKB3W wireless keypad. For more details on 2-partition mode, please contact your alarm system installer.
Illuminated indicator on EKB3 keypad indicates that no violated zones and/or tampers are present, therefore the partition is ready for
arming. If the indicator is not illuminated, the partition is unready for arming, therefore the user must restore all violated zones and/or
tampers before arming the partition. Alternatively, the violated zones can be bypassed (see 8. BYPASSING AND ACTIVATING ZONES),
disabled (please contact your alarm system installer to set up this parameter) or a Force attribute enabled (please contact your alarm
system installer to set up this parameter), while the tampers can be disabled (please contact your alarm system installer to set up this
parameter). Indicator will illuminate or ash if system fault (-s) exist (see 13. INDICATION OF SYSTEM FAULTS).
The system will arm/disarm the partition corresponding to the one that user/master code and the keypad are assigned to. For example,
if User code 4 is assigned to Partition 2, 3 and 4, while EKB3 keypad is assigned to Partition 2, the user will be able to arm/disarm only
Partition 2 by entering User code 4. For more details on how to set the keypad partition and user/master code partition, please refer to 3.3.
Assigning User and Master Code Partition and contact your alarm system installer.
5.4.1. Arming the System
To arm the system by EKB3 keypad, enter any out of 29 available 4-digit user codes or master code using the number keys on the keypad
(see 3. MASTER AND USER CODES for user/master code management). By default, the arming process is as follows:
• Non-partitioned system – When a valid user/master code is entered, the system will initiate exit delay, the keypad’s buzzer will emit
short beeps and the indicator along with the number
4
1
key, indicating the partition that is to be armed, will light ON. When
the system is successfully armed, the keypad’s buzzer will silent down.
Arm the system
Enter user/master code:
uumm
Value: uumm – 4-digit user or master code.
Example:
2 2 2 2
• Partitioned system – arming a single partition – To arm a dierent partition than the keypad is assigned to, use keypad partition
switch feature (by default – disabled; please, contact your alarm system installer to set up this parameter) before the arming process.
Switch keypad parti-
tion
Hold the
4
1
key and release it after 3 short beeps:
Value:
4
1
key – partition number 1... 4 respectively.
Once the partition is switched and a valid user/master code is entered, the system will initiate exit delay, the keypad’s buzzer will emit short
beeps and the indicator along with the number
4
1
key, indicating the partition that is to be armed, will light ON. When the system
is successfully armed, the keypad’s buzzer will silent down and the user will be notied by SMS text message.
Arm the system
Enter user/master code:
uumm
Value: uumm – 4-digit user or master code.
Example:
2 2 2 2
• Partitioned system - arming all 4 partitions simultaneously – If a user/master code assigned to all 4 partitions exists, user can
arm all partitions simultaneously. When this feature is used, the system will proceed as follows:
• if all partitions are disarmed-ready (no violated zone/tamper), the system will initiate exit delay. During the exit delay, the keypad’s
buzzer will emit short beeps and indicator along with number
1
,
2
,
3
and
4
keys will light ON followed by SMS text
message delivery to the user. When the system is successfully armed, the keypad’s buzzer will silent down.
• if one or more partitions are disarmed-unready (keypad number
4
1
key ashing, indicating the partition that contains
violated zone/tamper), the system will initiate exit delay. During the exit delay, the keypad’s buzzer will emit short beeps and keypad
indicator (if the keypad is switched to a non-violated partition) along with the number
4
1
key, indicating the partition that
is to be armed, will light ON followed by SMS text message delivery to the user. The ready partition (-s) will be armed and the unready
one (-s) will be skipped.
• if a combination of armed and disarmed ready partitions is present, the system will initiate exit delay. During the exit delay, the
keypad’s buzzer will emit short beeps and keypad indicator (if the keypad is switched to a disarmed partition) along with the
number
4
1
key, indicating the partition that is to be armed, will light ON followed by SMS text message delivery to the user.
The disarmed-ready partitions will be armed and the pre-armed ones will be skipped.
