2. Description of product
Radio keypad 868SLH, compatible with system FAAC 868 SLH,
enables electronic devices to be remotely piloted.
The radio commands can be enabled only after typing in a
sequence of 5 digits, from 0 to 9, which must match the access
code (PIN), whose factory value is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 .
If the sequence is correct, the keypad sounds a long beep. You
can now access 3 different radio channels corresponding to keys
1, 3 and A (Fig.2). Each of the three channels will be active for 3
seconds. The fourth channel, corresponding to key B, is direct, i.e.
it does not need any PIN to be activated - it is usually associated
with the door bell or intercom.
A brief beep is sounded whenever the keys are pressed. After the
initial pressure, the keypad is active for 10 sec (LEDs ON), and its
channels can be accessed during this period. When this time
elapses, the keypad disables itself (LEDs OFF) and a key must be
pressed again to re-activate it.
If you begin to type in an incorrect sequence, you can continue
at any time by typing in the correct PIN without this causing an
error. The system allows a maximum of 3 attempts (15 key strokes),
before entering protection state for 10 sec. In this state, no code
can be input and each key stroke generates an error signal (4
consecutive beeps). The correct PIN code can be typed in when
the 10 sec. have elapsed.
Important: the keypad functions can be activated only after
inputting the correct PIN, and, therefore, we advise
you to take a note of the number and keep it in a
secure place in case of need.

This document describes the FAAC Radio Keypad 868MHz SLH, a device designed for remotely piloting electronic devices, primarily gate openers. It conforms to Directive 99/05/EEC and is intended for exclusive use with gate openers.

Function Description

The Radio Keypad 868SLH operates by enabling radio commands after a user types in a 5-digit access code (PIN). The factory default PIN is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Once the correct PIN is entered, the keypad emits a long beep, and the user can then access three different radio channels corresponding to keys 1, 3, and A. Each of these three channels remains active for 3 seconds. A fourth channel, corresponding to key B, is a direct command, meaning it does not require a PIN to be activated. This channel is typically associated with a doorbell or intercom function.

When any key is pressed, a brief beep is sounded. After the initial key press, the keypad becomes active for 10 seconds, indicated by the LEDs turning ON, and its channels can be accessed during this period. After 10 seconds, the keypad disables itself (LEDs OFF), and a key must be pressed again to reactivate it. If an incorrect sequence is typed, the user can continue typing the correct PIN at any time without causing an error. The system allows a maximum of 3 attempts (15 key strokes) before entering a 10-second protection state. During this protection state, no code can be input, and each key stroke generates an error signal (4 consecutive beeps). The correct PIN can only be typed once the 10-second protection period has elapsed. It is crucial to note that the keypad functions can only be activated after inputting the correct PIN. Users are advised to record their PIN and keep it in a secure location.

Important Technical Specifications

• Transmission frequency: 868.35MHz ±200KHz
• Type of code: Self-learning encrypted rolling code
• Power supply: 9V alkaline battery
• Average battery life: 2 years (based on 10 activations per day)

• Features: Backlit keypad with LEDs, keys beep when pressed, 3 commands protected by a 5-digit access code (PIN), 1 direct command.

Usage Features

The device offers two programming levels: a first level for basic functions and a second level for advanced functions. Access to the programming menu for each level involves combinations of double key strokes, holding down a key until a beep is heard, and inputting a programming Password. Until the Password is modified, the PIN is used to access both radio channels and programming menus. If the Password is modified, the new Password is used for programming, while the PIN continues to access radio channels.

First-level programming options:

• 1.A Change PIN: Allows modification of the PIN (factory value is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5).
• 1.B Transmit System Code: Transmits the System Code of the 4 channels (only for MASTER keypads).
• 1.C Change Keypad from MASTER to SLAVE: Irreversibly sets the keypad as a SLAVE.

Second-level programming options:

• 2.A Change Programming Password: Allows modification of the programming Password (factory value is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5).
• 2.B Delete All Codes: Restores PIN and Password to factory values and randomizes system codes.

Transmission of System Code: System code teaching is only possible if the keypad is set as a MASTER. To transmit the system code to an SLH type decoding board, an 868SLH radio control, or another 868SLH Keypad:

1. Enter the 1.B menu until a long beep is sounded, then hold down the desired key on the keypad.
2. Hold down the code learning key on the decoding board, or hold down the key of the desired channel on the radio control (by putting it in contact with the keypad), or access the desired channel on the destination keypad (by typing the PIN) and hold down the key to put the two keypads in contact.
3. Verify that the board's LED stays lit steadily for a few seconds before turning off, or that the radio control's LED flashes before turning off, or that the destination keypad sounds a long beep before turning off. This confirms the system code was saved.
4. Release the held-down keys.
5. To definitively store the keypad's channel on the receiving board, access the channel (by typing the PIN) and press it twice in a row.

Learning the System Code from Radio Control 868SLH: The system code can also be learned from an 868SLH MASTER radio control. To do this:

1. Put the radio control in teaching mode (refer to its instructions).
2. Press and hold down the desired key on the radio control.
3. Access the required channel on the keypad (by typing the PIN).
4. Hold down the key to put the two units in contact.
5. Check if the keypad sounds a long beep before turning off to confirm that the system code was saved.

Maintenance Features

Installation (refer to Fig. 3): It is important not to open the keypad and to install it only after it has been programmed.

1. Rest the keypad on the desired wall, move it down by 5 to 10 mm, and mark the screw ① hole at the center of the keypad.
2. Drill the hole and fasten screw ①, ensuring the head protrudes by 3-4 mm.
3. Remove the lower cover by unscrewing screws ④.
4. Rest the keypad against screw ① (ref. ⑤) and mark the fixing point for screw ②.
5. Drill the hole and secure the keypad.
6. Fit the battery, observing polarity (ref. ③), and close the lower cover by screwing screws ④.
