OPTIONAL REMOTE KEYPAD
The optional Model AM-KP remote keypad can be used with the
RE-2 entry system. A typical application for the remote keypad
would be to control a second door or gate. Entry codes are the only
method of access allowed at a remote keypad. The default system
setting will cause the remote keypad to activate Relay #2.
1. Mount the AM-KP keypad onto a pedestal or to a wall.
2. Route 6-conductor cable from the RE-2 to the AM-KP.
• For wire runs up to 300 feet use 24 AWG Belden Type 9931 or
equivalent.
• For wire runs up to 600 feet use 20 AWG Weico Type 9405 or
equivalent.
3. Set the DEVICE ADDRESS rotary switch in the AM-KP to match the
remote keypad address in the RE-2 (default = 3).
4. Connect the 6-conductor cable as shown in Figure 19.
5. Secure and lock the AM-KP to its mounting plate.
