Remote keypad with LCD display
for VISION series control panels

Page 2 Digit-KD instruction manual
ENGLISH
The Digit-KD has a 16 x 2 LCD characters with which you may:
Arm the control panel in the modes “Day”, “Night” and “Test-Control” (Day and Night)
 Disarm the control panel
 By-pass zones
 Visualize the alarms detected which indicate (alarm memory)
The keypad is supplied with an access code which must be self-learned by the control panel
and 5 LED.
The LCD display immediately supplies all the information regarding the system status.
In case of alarm, the last event detected will remain visualized on the display, other events
detected can be easily visualized.
Other characteristics:
- Back light illumination of all buttons and display for approximately 30 seconds after a button
is pressed. In the case that more than one button is pressed, the 30 seconds starts from the
last operation executed.
- Beep confirmation of each button pressed.
1.0. DESCRIPTION
Congratulations on your purchase of the Digit-KD, a remote keypad with LCD display for
use with the VISION series control panels.
The unit has been built using the most advanced microprocessor technology and production
methods. Tested by means of special computerized test jig, the Digit-KD offers security and
durability in time.

On the left of the keypad are present the following optical signalling with LED indications:
 UNIT ON Control panel armed in Day and Night mode.
- Flashes quickly during exit time, then will light until the control panel is disarmed.
- If the option 8 is active (see VISION instructions) and when you arm the control panel
there is an open line or the control panel's battery is low, the LED flashes slowly during
exit time and then will light until the control panel is disarmed.
- If the option 8 is not active, the LED flashes slowly for a few seconds, then will go “off”.
The control panel does not arm when this takes place.
 TAMPER Tamper alarm
- In Maintenance mode, the LED will light for the time that the line remains unbalanced .
- In Programming mode, the LED will light during the keychain transmitters programming
and flashes quickly during zone configuration (immediate/delayed).
- With the control panel armed in (Day or Night mode) or disarmed, if a tamper alarm is
triggered the LED flashes slowly until the control panel is re-armed.
 FIRE Fire alarm
- In Maintenance mode, this LED will light for the time that the line remains unbalanced .
- In Programming mode, the LED will light during the wireless sensor programming and
flashes quickly during the association of the zones to the Night group.
- With the control panel armed in (Day or Night mode) or disarmed, if a fire alarm is
triggered the LED flashes slowly until the control panel is re-armed.
 LOW BAT. Low battery
- In Maintenance mode, the LED will light to signal low battery of the control panel and of
wireless sensor (every time the sensor triggers an alarm).
- In programming mode, the LED will light during the electronic keys or remote keypads
learning process and flashes quickly during the zone configuration (NC or balanced).
- With the control panel disarmed, armed and Test control mode, the LED flashes slowly
to signal low battery of the control panel, and will flashes quickly to signal low battery of
the wireless sensor. The signalling will remain active until the control panel is re-armed.
 TEST Test-control
- In Maintenance mode, the LED flashes slowly.
- In Programming mode, the LED flashes quickly during all phases.
- The LED will light while by-passing zones and Test-control arming mode.

4.0. ACCESS CODE
In order to execute the desired function of the Digit-KD, it is necessary to enter an access code
and press a function button.
- The code may be made from of a minimum of 1 digit to a maximum of 4 digits (from 0 to 9).
- There is no limit in the choice of a code: the digits can all the same, or they can be all
different. Example: 2 - 305 - 119 8888 - 4567 etc.
- The control panel can learn and memorize a maximum of 8 different codes.
- For each code you may use an unlimited number of remote keypads.
Enter in programming mode and advance to self-
learning of keys.
The LED “TEST” quickly flashes, while the LED
“LOW BAT.” is lit fixed. On the display appears:
PROG KEY

Failure of confirmation on the display that the code has been learned,
indicates that this code is already memorized in another position.
Therefore, repeat operations described in points 2) and 3).
4.1. SELF-LEARNING OF ACCESS CODE
To cancel the codes memorized, press the
button “B” on the control panel.
The keypad displays the message shown
on the right.
To enter a new code in position n. 1 not occupied, repeat the operations 1),
2), 3) and 4).
To move to the next position, press the
button “A” on the control panel and repeat
operations 1), 2), 3) and 4) and so forth up
to the eighth position.
After having memorized the code or codes,
exit programming mode (see control panel
instructions). On the display the message
shown on the right will appear.
