the door. The egress input triggers the lock output on
the keypad by operating or firing the associated door
assignment.
The egress input should be connected via a momentary
or push button switch to keypad ground. When the but-
ton is pressed the lock output on the keypad will trigger
for a fixed 5 second period.
For greater security, if the egress input is not being used
it should be disabled via panel programming.

Any zone on the system can be configured to trigger
a door and can therefore also be used to operate
the lock output on the keypad.

IP Options
This menu option is only available when the system
detects that a Wi-Fi enabled keypad is installed on the
system.
Wi-Fi enabled keypads include two new symbols which
indicate the connection state between the keypad and
the customers wireless access point. A Wi-Fi symbol will
be displayed on the keypad display after the system has
logged onto your local Wi-Fi network.

A brief description of the options available are listed
below. For more information refer to the control panel
installation manual.
SSID Scan
This option will request the system to create a list of all
SSID’s currently in range of the Wi-Fi keypad. Use the
down arrow key to step through the available SSID’s and
press OK to select the required station.
The SSID scan also displays the signal strength for each
station in dB’s (Decibels). To ensure reliable Wi-Fi per-
formance do not attempt to connect the keypad the a
station with a signal strength lower than -65dB.
i
Note
The lower the number the better the signal strength
is. For example -25dB is better than -55dB. If the sig-
nal strength for the required station is higher than
-65dB you should consider relocating the keypad or
using a Wi-Fi range extender.
SSID
This option allows the installer or master user to manually
enter the required SSID. This typically will need to be
done if the SSID is not being broadcast by the wireless
access point.
Security
From the list select the Wi-Fi Security option currently
in use on the customers wireless access point. If you
perform a SSID Scan (see above), the control panel will
automatically detect the security option required and
you wont need to set this option.
Password
Enter the customers Wi-Fi access password. If the
customer is using WEP Security (Not recommended) then
the Wi-Fi keypad will support 64bit and 128bit passwords
only.

enter anything in this location. If you are not using DHCP
then you should enter the assigned IP address for the Wi-
Fi keypad here. You will also need to enter the Subnet
Mask and Default Gateway addresses.
