4. Installation
If the ethernet switch does not support PoE and keypad can’t get power from PoE, users will
need to make a power adapter with supplied phoenix connector to power the keypad through
DC 12V port externally.

Website: www.seada.co.uk 4/23 E-mail: [email protected]
*Check and ensure that the power adapter is with 12V, and its current is equal to
or more than 0.5A.
Plug in the 2-pin cable equipped phoenix connector to DC 12V port of the keypad. Connect the
adapter to the power, the keypad should start work (press the any button, it will flash).
5. Configuration settings
The keypad supports WEB GUI to setup devices and configure commands for the Keypad
buttons, it also supports to set network and system information. The Web UI can be accessible
through a browser with latest version, e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera, IE10+, etc.
Step 1: Connect LAN (PoE) port of the keypad to an Ethernet switch using a straight UTP
cable.
Note:
•If the switch supports PoE, the keypad can receive power from it. Otherwise, connect a DC
12V power adapter to the keypad. The power adapter is not included, for how to make a
power adapter, please refer to “Make a Keypad Power Adapter with Phoenix Connector”
section.
•The default network mode of the keypad is DHCP, ensure the ethernet switch is connected
to a DHCP server such as a router.
Step 2: Connect a PC to the same network.
Step 3: Power on all devices.
