FA130 Keypad
The FA130 keypad is a 900MHz wireless transmitter used to arm and disarm
the Vision Plus™ or Wireless Guardian™ system. The FA130 is a one-way
device, which can be programmed as a supervised point. Functionally, the
FA130 emulates the KP130 hardwire executive keypad, without the LCD
display.
PROGRAMMING THE KEYPAD:
1. If desired, identify the point number of the unit with numbered labels
provided with the Vision Plus™ or Wireless Guardian™ panel.
2. Turn the phillips-head screw on the bottom of the housing slightly.
Separate the housing halves.
3. Complete program data entry as shown below Figure 1. When prompted
to "Plug in Xmitter", connect the programming cable between
programming headers on the hardwire executive keypad and the FA130
wireless keypad. Refer to Figure 2 to locate the programming header.
4. Press the reset button on the FA130 keypad. When programming has
been confirmed by the hardwire executive keypad, disconnect the
programming cable.
5. Test the FA130. Pressing any arming key will cause the keypad to
transmit and the transmit LED under the ENTER key to flash during
transmissions. The panel will decode the message to determine if it is
valid.
6. Mount the keypad using hardware provided.

ENTERING ACCESS CODES: The FA130 "reads" access code keypresses on a first-in-first-out
basis. When an arming key or OFF is pressed, the keypad transmits only the last four digits
entered. If the user makes an error entering an access code, it is only necessary to re-enter the
correct code before pressing an arming key or OFF. If an arming key is not pressed within
15 seconds, the keypad will clear any input data.
TO ARM THE SYSTEM: enter the access code, and press the STAY, AWAY or CUSTOM key.
The Transmit LED will light indicating that the keypad is sending data.
TO ARM THE SYSTEM (EZ ARMING ENABLED): Press ENTER followed by STAY, AWAY or
CUSTOM. Normal entry and exit delays will be in effect. FOR INSTANT MODE: Press the STAY
or the CUSTOM key again during the delay period. All delayed points will be armed as instant.
TO DISARM THE SYSTEM: Enter an access code-and press the OFF key.
TO HEAR ARMING STATUS from the nearest hardwire keypad or from an audio speaker
connected to the control panel: Press the REVIEW key on the FA130 keypad. See Figure 4 for
descriptions of various status tones.
