Enrolling the Keypad

  • From the IQ4 panel, start the auto learn process (Settings > Advanced Settings > Installatin > Devices > Security Sensors > Auto Learn Sensor)
  • Insert the batteries on the IQ Keypad to initiate pairing.  If the batteries were previously installed, press and hold * for 3 seconds to inititate pairing
  • Once the IQ Keypad is found, set the options as needed and click "Add New".
    • NOTE: Upon tamper closure the keypad will calibrate the capacitive touch. This sequence takes 20 seconds, the installer shall refrain from using the keypad for the initial 10 seconds. If the keypad is not calibrated correctly keypresses might not be sensitive or detected. The keypad will continually calibrate itself when not in use and will optimize keypresses. If initial calibration was successful allow for the keypad to calibrate itself for initial 24H. The keypad may be used normally during this time.
