The B915/B915I Basic Keypad is a SDI2 bus

compatible device. Each keypad has user adjustable

options such as volume and display brightness. The

keypad shows two-line system messages for all areas.

System overview

• For commercial use, install the keypad in building

entrances and areas with unrestricted access.

Mounting a keypad near exterior doors in hotel or

business lobbies allows people to identify the type

and location of the emergency.

• For residential use, install the keypad near the front

and rear entrances to the home. Install additional

keypads in a kitchen or in a bedroom.

• Use multiple keypads in a large building with many

separate areas of security. Program multiple keypads

to control multiple areas.

• Audible tones from the keypad sounder alert

personnel to fire events and assist fire fighters in

locating the keypad.

Functions

LCD display

The keypad uses words, numbers, and symbols to

show the status of the security system. When several

events occur, the keypad shows each event in order of

priority.

Keys

Each keypad has 10 number keys and 5 navigation and

function keys. When pressed, keys turn on keypad

backlighting and emit the keypress tone (short beep).

Audible tones

The keypad has a built-in sounder that produces

several distinct warning tones. The tones are

differentiated so that the user can recognize an event

simply by hearing its associated tone. The keypad

backlight illuminates when the keypad emits an

audible tone. Users can use a passcode to silence the

tone.

Status indicators

The Status indicators on keypads provide a quick

visual reference for you to see how your system is

operating.

Part On status.

• Green. Ready to turn Part On.

• Red. Part On (part armed).

Power. The blue power plug indicates whether the control

panel has AC power.

• On Steady. The AC (mains) power to the control

panel is present.

• Flashing. AC (mains) power to the control panel is

not present and the control panel is operating from

the battery.

• Off. There is no power to the control panel.
