Product Summary
The SuperBus 2000 Fixed Display Touchpad lets users
operate a ConcordExpress or Concord (software version
2.0 or newer) security system and change user
programmable settings.
The display provides messages to system users that indicate
system status during system operation and data-entry feed-
back while in user-programming mode. Display back-
ground brightness can be adjusted to accommodate for
lighting conditions at the touchpad location.
Two LEDs provide arming and system trouble status. Refer
to the specific panel User’s Guide/Owner’s Manual for LED
function information.
A built-in speaker provides status and alarm tones. Chime
and trouble beep tone frequency (pitch) can be changed to a
more desirable or distinct tone, and to compensate for hear-
ing impaired persons.
Police, fire, and auxiliary panic buttons can be activated
anytime in case of an emergency.
A label on the inside of the touchpad door provides users
with basic system commands for quick and easy reference
of system operation and user programming.
Each touchpad is preset from the factory with an ID number
(SuperBus 2000 technology), eliminating DIP switch
settings and speeding up installation.
Note
This touchpad cannot be used for installer program-
ming. You must connect an alphanumeric touchpad to
the panel to perform on-site programming, or use
ToolBox Downloader (software version 5.1 or newer).
Installation Guidelines
❑Mount the touchpad in an environmentally controlled
area (32°F to 120°F) (0°C to 49°C).
❑For Concord Express systems, up to 4 bus devices can
be connected to the panel.
❑For Concord (software versions 2.0 and newer), up to
16 bus devices can be connected to the panel.
❑Maximum current draw of the touchpad is
65 mA.
❑Minimum current draw of the touchpad when the panel
is operating on backup battery only, is 11 mA.
❑Do not exceed the maximum available panel power
when using panel power for bus devices and hardwire
detectors (see specific panel Installation Instructions).
❑Follow the maximum wire length guidelines in Table 1.
Tools and Equipment Needed
❑4-conductor, 22- or 18-gauge wire
❑Screwdrivers
❑Drill with bits
❑#6 screws and anchors (included)
❑Panhead screws for a gang box installation
❑Saw or utility knife for cutting wallboard
Installation
This section describes touchpad mounting and wiring.
Installing the Mounting Plate
1. Insert the blade of a small screwdriver at the top of the

Power Up and Bus Communication
Figure 1. Separating the Touchpad from the Mounting
Plate
2. Remove the mounting plate and set the touchpad aside.
3. Place the mounting plate on the wall and mark the four
mounting holes (see Figure 2).
Figure 2. Marking the Mounting Holes
4. Drill holes and insert anchors at marked locations
where studs are not present.
5. Align the mounting plate wall-mount holes with the
wall anchors and secure the back-plate to the wall using
the screws provided.
If installing the back-plate on an electrical gang box,
align the appropriate gang box holes and secure the
back-plate to the gang box using the panhead screws
provided.
Note
Do not overtightenscrews or the back-plate may bend
and prevent the touchpad from mounting properly.
6. For wall-mounted installations, cut a hole in the wall in
the wire access area of the mounting plate to pull your
cable through for wiring.
Wiring
1. Remove panel AC power and disconnect the backup
battery.
2. Run a 4-conductor, 18- to 22-gauge wire from the panel
to the touchpad location.
3. Splice the 4-conductor cable wires to the red, black,
green, and white wires located on the back of the
touchpad.
4. Connect the touchpad to the panel terminals as shown
in Figure 3.
Figure 3. Wiring the Touchpad to the Panel
5. Set the top of the touchpad on top of the mounting plate
(so it hangs), then press inward on the bottom portion
of the touchpad until you hear the bottom latch click
into place.
Power Up and Bus
Communication
After making all wiring connections from the touchpad to
the panel, you are ready to power up the panel and verify
correct communication between the touchpad and the panel.
Upon power up, the panel scans the bus for connected
devices and automatically learns the unit number of each
bus device.
Note
If you plan on installing systems with no alphanumeric
touchpads, it is recommended that you keep an alpha-
numeric touchpad with you, specifically for installer
programming. This touchpad can be quickly con-
nected and disconnected from the header pins on the
lower-left portion of the panel, just above the terminal
strip.

Testing
To power up the panel and verify bus
communication:
1. Verify that all wiring between the panel and touchpad is
correct.
2. Connect the panel battery and plug in the panel trans-
former. The touchpad should display BUS SCAN, then
show a time display with the PRESS STATUS prompt in
the upper-left corner.
Note
If the touchpad does not power up (show any display)
or respond as described above, unplug the panel AC
transformer and disconnect the backup battery.
Proceed to the “Troubleshooting” section.
Testing
Use the following procedures to test the touchpad for dis-
play function, button function and system operation.
To test touchpad display function:
Press and hold the 4, 5, and 6buttons together for
about three seconds, then release them.
The touchpad cycles through all text messages, then
returns to the time display.
To test button function:
1. Press and hold the 7, 8, and 9buttons together for
about three seconds, then release them. The display
should go blank.
2. Press each touchpad button to display a string of that
button’s number or letter. For example,
1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1, A A A A A A A A A A A, etc.
Pressing ‚displays Es and pressing ƒdisplays Fs.
After about 15 seconds of no touchpad activity, the touch-
pad returns to the time display.
To test for system operation:
CAUTION
Contact the central monitoring station before activating
alarms, to avoid dispatching local police and fire
departments.
Note
The touchpad panic buttons must be enabled in order
to activate them. Please see the panel Installation
Instructions for more information.
Arm/disarm the system, activate the touchpad panics,
bypass sensors, and turn chime on/off to verify correct oper-
ation.
Refer to the panel User’s Guide/Owner’s Manual for com-
plete system operating instructions and user programming
procedures.
Adjusting Display Brightness
The background lighting (provided by yellow LEDs) of
each touchpad can be adjusted individually to help compen-
sate for lighting conditions at the touchpad location. The
brightness adjustment lightens or darkens the display back-
ground and button lighting.
To adjust display background brightness:
1. Enteruser programming mode bypressing 9+ system
master CODE. The display shows
SYSTEM MENU, then TIME - dATE.
2. Press Aor Buntil the display shows OPTIONS, then
press ƒ. The display shows dOWnLd ON.
3. Press Aor Buntil the display shows BRIgHT 2
(default setting).
4. Enter a setting from 0(LEDs off) to 3(brightest), then
press ƒ. The display shows the new setting.
5. Exit user programming by pressing
❑‚+ 4+ ƒfor Concord Express panels,
❑or ‚+ 00 + ƒfor Concord panels.
Changing Chime and Trouble Beep
Tones
The frequency (pitch) of chime and trouble beep tones from
each touchpad can be adjusted to a more desirable or
distinct tone, and to compensate for hearing impaired per-
sons.
Note
Chime and trouble beep tones sound (using the
default frequency) during, or within 15 seconds of any
button activity at that specific touchpad.
To change status tone pitch:
1. Press and hold the ‚and 0buttons together until you
hear a steady tone, then release the buttons.
2. Press and hold 1to lower the pitch or press and hold
2to raise the pitch.
3. Release the button when the desired pitch is heard.
After about 15 seconds of no touchpad activity, the steady
tone stops sounding.

Table 2. Troubleshooting
Problem Action/Solution
Touchpad doesn’t
power up (no
display and no
beeps when buttons
are pressed).
1. Check for correct wiring
connections at touchpad
and panel terminals.
2. Make sure panel battery
is connected correctly
and that the panel trans-
former is plugged in.
3. Make sure panel trans-
former is not plugged
into an electrical outlet
controlled by a switch.
Relocate transformer to
an unswitched outlet
location, if necessary.
Touchpad display
appears blank, but
beeps sound when
buttons are pressed.
Check for correct bus wiring
connections (green and white
wires) at touchpad and panel
terminals.
