Activating the Battery
The Wireless Keypad is packaged with the battery
installed, but not activated. To activate the battery,
remove the yellow battery isolation strip on the side
edge; pull to remove. Once the strip is removed, the
Wireless Keypad will be active.
Assigning a Wireless Keypad to a Device Location
The Control Center is designed to store up to four
remote transmitters, such as the Wireless Keypad. In
order to ensure that the Wireless Keypad will operate
only with your Control Center, it must be assigned to
one of the four device locations on the Control Center.
Step 1. Press and hold the Learn button on the Control
Center. You will hear a short beep, followed shortly by a
long continuous beep. Release the Learn button.
Step 2. On the Control Center, press and release one of
the device numbers (1,2,3 or 4) that you want to assign
the Wireless Keypad. The LED for that device number
will begin to flash.

Step 3. Press the red Panic button on the wireless
keypad. The Control Center will sound a long beep and
the LED will stop flashing. This confirms the Wireless
Keypad has been assigned to the selected device
number.
Programming Security Codes into the Wireless Keypad
The Wireless Keypad operates independently from
the Control Center. The Wireless Keypad can store
up to three different security user codes into its
memory – the Master Code and two alternate User
codes. The Master Code (1) has been set to 1-2-3-4. It
is recommended to change the Master Code to a new
personal 4-digit number. The Master Code is also used
to set/change either of the alternate User codes, so it
is important to remember the Master code. Alternate
User codes can be set to provide access for different
individuals outside of the immediate occupants,
such as a ‘vacation’ code used to temporarily allow
someone access to the house while you are away.
Changing the Master code or alternate User code
Step 1. Press and release the Green button (disarm
button). Enter Current Master code. Press and release
the Green button. The LED will remain on during the
programming progress.
NOTE: After placing the wireless keypad into the
programming mode, you have approx 30 seconds to
enter a selection at each step or the LED will flash 3
times and turn off. If it does, it means you timed out of
the programming mode and must start over.

Step 2. Enter a number (1, 2, or 3) for the User code
you would like to change (1=Master code, 2= User 2
code, 3 = User 3 code).
Step 3. Press and release the Green button.
Step 4. Enter the new 4-digit code. Press and release
the Green button.
Step 5. Re-enter new 4-digit code again. Press and
release the Green button.
The LED will flash 5 times and turn off indicating the
code for that User code has been stored/changed.
Example: To set User 2 code to 2222
Press and release the Green button
(The LED will turn on)
Enter 1,2,3,4 (Wireless keypad is now in Program Mode)
Press and release the green button
Enter 2
Press and release the green button
Enter 2,2,2,2
Press and release the green button
Re-enter 2,2,2,2
Press and release the green button (red LED will flash 5
times and turn off)
In this example, User 2 code has been set as 2222.
Erasing Alternate User Codes
Alternate user codes can be removed completely from
the memory if necessary. Note: the Master Code (1)
cannot be erased, only changed.

Step 1. Press and release Green button. Enter Current
Master code. Press and release the Green button. The
LED will light.
Note: You have approx 30 seconds to make a selection
at each step, or the LED will flash 3 times and turn off.
If it does, you’ll have to start over.
Step 2. Enter a number (2, or 3) for the code you
would like to erase (2= User 2 code, 3 = User 3 code).
Press and release the Green button three times.
The LED will flash 5 times and turn off indicating the
code for that number has been erased.
Placement of the Wireless Keypad.
The Wireless Keypad is designed to be mounted inside
onto a wall, or it can lay on a flat surface (such as a
night stand). If mounting to a wall, use the double-
sided tape strips or the screws/wall anchors (both
included).
Note (1): Do not mount in an exterior location; the
Wireless Keypad is not weather resistant.
Note (2): The Wireless Keypad can transmit up to
150ft. However like all wireless devices, this distance
is subject to conditions of the home. The number of
walls and appliances between the Wireless Keypad
and the location of the Control Center can reduce
the signal transmission distance. When selecting a
placement, test the Wireless Keypad at the location
before mounting. Using a signal repeater can extend
the transmission distance.

Mounting the Wireless Keypad onto a Wall (using
double sided tape strips)
Select a suitable location that provides protected, easy
access. Be sure to test the device before mounting.
Clean both surfaces with 50/50 mix of isopropyl
alcohol and water. Using the provided double sided
tape strips, peel one side and firmly apply to the
indented areas on the back of the mounting plate.
Peel the remaining side of the double sided tape and
lightly mount to the wall. Once you are confident with
the placement, press firmly to secure to the wall.
Mounting the Wireless Keypad onto a Wall (using
screws/wall anchors) – you will need a drill, 3/16” or
1/8” drill bit and screwdriver.
Step 1. Remove the top cover from the mounting
plate. (See Removing the Top Cover from the
Mounting Plate.) Set the top cover aside.
Step 2. Select a suitable location that provides
protected, easy access. Be sure to test the device
before mounting. Use the mounting plate as a
template. Be sure to position the mounting plate with
the arrow pointing up. Mark the two holes on the wall
for the anchors and/or screws as shown. Please be
sure to mark the center of the holes.
