Introduction
Carefree-Security self-contained keypads are fully sealed and are ideal for adverse environmental conditions. The
electronics are encapsulated in epoxy, making the keypad impervious to moisture.
Carefree-Security keypads are a digital keyless entry system designed for access control applications. The keypad is housed
in a metal powder coated enclosure that can be mounted to a pedestal or directly to a wall. The keypad is a heavy duty
metal die cast keyboard. The keyboard has bright, easy to read graphics. Single, or up to 1000 entry codes from 2 to 6 digits
in length, can be programmed.
The Blue LED serves as a Night Light and a Power On indicator and illuminates to a brighter state when any key is pressed.
Three additional LED’s indicate the status of the keypad system: The Yellow LED indicates that the keypad is in program
mode or in a “lockout” condition. The Green LED indicates that access has been granted to Relay 1. The Red LED indicates
that access has been granted to Relay 2. When entering your code number, an audible tone indicates that your input was
received. If a wrong number is entered during programming, pressing the *key will end programming.
IMPORTANT- PLEASE NOTE
Please read all instructions before installing or programing this keypad. It is very important to apply and follow the procedures
described herein. Your keypad represents a new generation of high quality, high reliability keypad technology that is simple to use

Protect the keypad from lightning & power surges:
If you install a keypad that is in an area were lightning can damage a keypad, make sure the keypad metal housing is
grounded. Install a Model 306 Lighting & Surge Protector. There is no warranty if the keypad is damaged due to lighting
static electricity or high voltage power surges. The Model 306 will help to protect the electronics in the keypad and is very
easy to install. Do not ground the housing to the fence, fence post or pedestal. Ground the keypad mental housing to an
electrical ground (operator) or install a ground rod.

Instantaneous Response Time / 600 Watts @ 39 Volts / 15kV 60 Amp Surge Suppression
Installs inside the keypad metal housing
Troubleshooting: If Lightning or a High Voltage Surge strikes the keypad the microprocessor may go into a self-protect
mode causing one or more of the following conditions:
The Yellow LED may stay on. The Green LED may stay on (relay latched)
The buzzer may not produce an audible tone. Some of the keys on the keypad may or may not work and/or the keypad may
not function at all.
To reset the keypad, disconnect the power to the keypad and wait at least two (2) minutes, then re- connect the power to
the keypad and enter your code number. If the keypad still does not work, then a high voltage surge has damaged the
microprocessor. Return the keypad to Carefree-Security for evaluation.
