2 Reference & Installation Manual
2.0 Installation
The LCD keypad (DGP2-641) is connected to the control panel's
combus in a star and/or daisy chain configuration. The 4-wire
combus provides power and two-way communication between
the control panel and all modules connected to it. Connect the
four terminals labeled red, black, green and yellow of each
keypad to the corresponding terminals on the control panel (refer
to Figure 2.1 on page 3). Refer to DGP-848 or DGP-NE96
Reference & Installation Manual for the maximum allowable
installation distance from the control panel.
2.1 Connecting Keypad Zones
Each keypad has one traditional hardwired input terminal,
allowing you to connect one detector or door contact directly to
the keypad. For example, a door contact located at the entry
point of an establishment can be wired directly to the input
terminal of the entry point keypad instead of wiring the door
contact all the way to the control panel.
Connect the device to the keypad's input terminal as shown in
Figure 2.1 on page 3. In order to communicate its status to the
control panel, the keypad's input must be assigned to a zone in
the control panel and the zone's parameters must be defined.
For more information on zone assignment, please refer to DGP-
848 or DGP-NE96 Reference & Installation Manual. Please note
that even with the ATZ (zone doubling) feature enabled, the
keypad supports only one detection device.

2.2 Programmable Output
Each keypad has one on-board PGM. A PGM is a programmable
output that switches to its opposite state (i.e. a normally open
PGM will close) when a specific event has occurred in the
system (refer to section 5.0 on page 14). Upon activation, the
PGM can provide 50mA to any device connected to it. If the
current drawn is to exceed the current limit, a relay should be
connected to the PGM as shown in Figure 2.1.
Figure 2.1: Connecting the Keypad and Keypad Zone
* The keypad
zone follows the
control panel’s
EOL definition.
The zone speed
is set at 600mS
and cannot be
programmed.
Note: The keypad’s anti-tamper
switch will communicate its status to
the control panel via the combus.
Note: A keypad’s input must be
assigned to a zone, keyswitch or
virtual input in the control panel.

4 Reference & Installation Manual
3.0 Programming
To program the DGP2-641 keypad, enter Module Programming
Mode and then enter the desired section followed by the required
data. When programming the keypad, use the keypad’s
programming sheets (found in the Digiplex Modules’
Programming Guide) to keep track of which sections were
programmed and how. We strongly recommend you read this
entire manual before you begin programming.
The LCD keypad can also be programmed using the WinLoad
Security System Management Software. For more information,
refer to the WinLoad instructions or visit our website at
www.paradox.ca.
3.1 Entering Module Programming Mode
The keypad, like all other modules in the system, is programmed
through the control panel. To do so, you must first enter Module
Programming Mode:
1. From Normal Mode press and hold the [0] key.
2. Enter the [INSTALLER CODE](Default: 000000).
3. Enter section [953] (DGP-848) / [4003] (DGP-NE96).
4. Enter the keypad’s 8-digit [SERIAL NUMBER].
5. Enter the 3-digit [SECTION] you want to program.
6. Enter the required [DATA].
The control panel will then redirect all programming to the
selected keypad. Every time the [CLEAR]key is pressed it will
revert to the preceding step, unless entering in data in which
case it will erase the current data entry. Please note that the

Digiplex LCD Keypad 5n
serial number is located on the keypad's PC board or enter
section [000] in Step 3 to view the keypad’s serial number.
3.2 Programming Methods
The following methods can be used when programming the keypad:
3.2.1 Feature Select Programming
Some sections are programmed by enabling or disabling
options. Within the sections, numbers from [1] to [8]
represent a specific keypad option. Press the key
corresponding to the desired option and the digit will appear
in the display. This means the option is enabled. Press the
key again to remove the digit from the display thereby
disabling the option. Press [ENTER]when options are set.
3.2.2 Decimal Programming
Some sections require that a decimal value be entered. In
this method, any digit from 000 to 255 can be entered.
3.3 Module Broadcast
The control panel’s Module Broadcast feature can be used to
copy the contents of one keypad to one or more keypads.
1. From Normal Mode press and hold the [0] key.
2. Enter [INSTALLER CODE](Default: 000000).
3. Enter section [954] (DGP-848) / [4004] (DGP-NE96).
4. Enter the [SERIAL #] of the source keypad. The source is
the programmed keypad whose data you want to copy to
other keypads.
5. Enter the [SERIAL #] of the destination keypads. The
destination is the keypad(s) you want to program with the

6 Reference & Installation Manual
source’s data. If you want to program more than one
keypad with the source’s data, enter the serial numbers
of the keypads one at a time.
6. Once you have entered the serial numbers of the
keypads you want to program, press the [ACC] key.
3.4 Memory Key
Sections [510] and [520]
Download information to and from an LCD keypad using the
memory key (PMC-3).
Only the PMC-3 memory key will function with the
LCD keypad.
3.5 Download Contents of Memory Key to Keypad
Section [510]
1. Insert the memory key into the keypad’s connector
labelled “KEY” (refer to Figure 2.1 on page 3).
2. To download the contents of the memory key, enter the
keypad’s programming mode and enter section [510].
3. When the keypad emits a confirmation beep, wait 5
seconds and remove the memory key after the second
confirmation beep.
Section [510] = Download all from the memory key (LCD
keypad sections [001] to [396] and all
messages) to the LCD keypad.
Section [520] = Copy the LCD keypad sections [001] to [396]
and all messages to the memory key.
