Operating principle
KeyPad Fibra is a touch keypad to control the Ajax security system. It controls
the security modes of the entire object or individual groups and also allows you
to enable or disable the .
You can control the security modes with KeyPad Fibra using general or personal
codes. Before entering the code, you should activate the KeyPad Fibra by
touching any part of the touch panel.
When the keypad is activated, the backlight turns on, and the built-in speaker
beeps. Backlight brightness and keypad volume are adjustable in
in Ajax apps.
If you do not touch the keypad for 4 seconds, KeyPad Fibra reduces the
brightness of the backlight, and 8 seconds later goes into power saving mode

Access codes
KeyPad Fibra supports from 4 to 6 digit codes. Entering the code should be
conrmed by pressing one of the buttons: (Arm), (Disarm) and (Night
mode). Any characters typed accidentally are reset with a button (“Reset”).
KeyPad Fibra supports code types as follows:
The number of codes supported depends on the hub model.
KeyPad Fibra also supports arming without entering a code, if the Arming
without Codefunction is enabled in the . This function is
disabled by default.
Duress code
Keypad code — common access code. Set in the settings of each keypad.
When used, all events are delivered to Ajax apps on behalf of the keypad.
User code — the personal code of the user who has an Ajax account and is
linked to the hub. Each system user sets the code independently in the hub
settings. When used, all events are delivered to Ajax apps on behalf of the
user. The code works for all keypads that are connected to this hub.
Unregistered user code — the code of the user who does not have an Ajax
account. The code is set by an administrator or PRO with system setup
rights in the hub settings. When used, events are delivered to Ajax apps with
a name associated with this code. The code works for all keypads that are
connected to this hub.

A duress code allows you to simulate alarm deactivation. The and
installed at the object will not give you away in this case, and the security
company and other users of the security system will be warned about the
incident.
Features of the alarm when entering the duress code:
If the security system is disarmed with a duress code erroneously, contact the security
company monitoring station.
The keypad supports both common and personal duress codes. The common
duress code is set in the keypad settings. The personal duress code is set by the
user individually in the hub settings.
Function button
KeyPad Fibra keypad has the Function button. The button can work in one of
three modes:

1. Security company monitoring station receives an alarm event Disarming
under duress. The rapid response team is going to the object.
2. All users of the security system receive a notication with no alarm about
disarming the system, and the notication is indicated by a red icon .

any commands.

Interconnected Fire Alarm muting
KeyPad Fibra can disable interconnected Fire Detectors Alarm by pressing the
Function button if congured in Mute Interconnected Fire Alarm mode. The
response of the system to pressing the button depends on the settings and the
state of the system:
The option works only if the option is
enabled in hub settings.
With the update, users can mute re detector alarms in their groups
and at the same time not affect the operation of detectors in those groups to which they
do not have access.
Unauthorized Access Auto-Lock
If a wrong code is entered three times within one minute, the keypad will be
locked for the time specied in its . During this time, the hub will ignore
all codes, while simultaneously informing the users of the security system about
an attempt to guess the code.
A user or PRO with administrator rights can unlock the keypad through the app.
Also, unlocking occurs automatically after the lock time specied in the settings
expires.
Two-stage arming
KeyPad Fibra participates in arming in two stages. This process is similar to
arming with a personal or common code on a keypad. The process should be

completed by re-arming with SpaceControl or restoring the terminating detector
(for example, closing the door with DoorProtect Fibra installed).
KeyPad Fibra cannot act as a terminating device in two-stage arming.
Fibra data transfer protocol
The keypad uses Fibra technology to transmit alarms and events. This is a wired
data transfer protocol that provides fast and reliable two-way communication
between the hub and the connected devices. Using the bus connection method,
Fibra delivers alarms and events instantly, even if 100 devices are connected to
the system.
Fibra supports oating key block encryption and veries each communication
session with devices to prevent sabotage and spoong. The protocol requires
regular polling of detectors by the hub with a predetermined frequency to
monitor communication and display the status of the system devices in Ajax
apps.

Sending events to the monitoring station
An Ajax security system can transmit alarms to the monitoring
app as well as the Central Monitoring Station (CMS) using SurGard (Contact ID),
SIA DC-09 (ADM-CID), ADEMCO 685, and other proprietary protocols. See a
complete list of supported protocols .
KeyPad Fibra can transmit the following events:

Which CMSs can the Ajax security system be connected to
1. The duress code is entered.

When an alarm is received, the monitoring station operator of the security
company knows what happened and where the rapid response unit has to be
sent. All Ajax devices are addressable, so events, the device type, its assigned
name and location (room, group) can be transmitted to PRO Desktop and the
CMS. The list of transmitted parameters may differ depending on the type of the
CMS and the selected communication protocol.
The device ID, loop (zone) number, and bus number can be found in device
.
Selecting the installation site
When choosing where to place KeyPad Fibra, consider the parameters that
affect the operation of the device:
KeyPad Fibra is mounted on a at vertical surface with the bundled screws. The
keypad is intended for indoor installation only. For convenience, we recommend
installing the keypad at a height of 1.3–1.5 meters from the oor.
Consider the placement recommendations when designing the security system
project for your object. The security system should be designed and installed by
professionals. The list of authorized Ajax partners is .

Fibra Signal Strength
The Fibra signal level is determined by the number of undelivered or corrupted
data packages over a certain period. The icon in the Devices tab in Ajax
apps indicates the signal strength:
The following factors affect the signal strength:
Design
To correctly install and congure security system devices, it is important to
properly design the security system. The design must consider the number and
types of devices at the object, their exact location and installation height, the
Outdoors. This could damage the keypad.
Inside premises with temperature and humidity outside the permissible
limits. This could damage the keypad.
In places where the keypad has an unstable or low signal strength. This can
lead to a loss of connection between the hub and the keypad.
Where articles of clothing, power cables, or an Ethernet cable could be an
obstacle to the keypad. This can lead to false clicks on the touch panel of
the device.
Three bars — excellent signal strength.
Two bars — good signal strength.
One bar — low signal strength, stable operation is not guaranteed.

Topologies
Currently, Ajax security systems support two topologies: Beam (Radial wiring)
and Ring.
Connecting devices using a Ring topology will be implemented in the next OS Malevich
updates. Hardware update of Hub Hybrid is not required.
Beam connection method (Radial wiring) occupies one bus output of the hub.
Only the segment that remains physically connected to the hub will function in
the event of a line break. All devices connected after the breakpoint will lose
connection with the hub.
Ring connection method occupies two bus outputs of the hub. If the ring breaks
in one place, no device will be disabled. The ring recongures into two lines,
which continue to operate normally. Users and the security company will receive
notication about the break.
