2. INSTALLATION

CONTROL-PANEL MOUNTING

Choose a mounting location accessible to (a) a continu-
ously-powered AC source, (b) a cold-water-pipe ground ide-
ally no further away than 10 feet, and (c) telephone lines
(keep telephone wiring away from speaker wires). Remove
appropriate knockouts for cables. Place the control panel at
a convenient viewing height and mark the mounting holes.
A keypad should be located near the exit/entry door. Up to
5 keypads may be connected if the longest cable run from
the panel to the farthest keypad, whether daisy chained or
home-run wired, is less than 1800 feet. See Combined
Standby Current specifications. Each keypad typically draws
35mA, however do not use more than 5 keypads.
The control panel door is secured shut by 3 screws
(supplied). A lock and keyset are available as an option (see
ORDERING INFORMATION).
Grounding
Connect the mounting screw at the lower-left corner of the
circuit board (EARTH GROUND) to a metal cold water pipe.
Do not use a gas pipe, plastic pipe or AC ground connec-
tions. Use at least 16-gauge wire. Make the run as short and
direct as possible. Avoid sharp bends in the wire.
Tamper Switches
Tamper switches may be installed to prevent opening of
the enclosure door or removal of the cabinet from the wall.
Ideally, tamper switches should be connected to a zone that
is active at all times, thus it may be necessary to program that
zone for 24-Hour Protection. When used on a normally-open
zone, normally-closed tamper switches (open when set)
should be wired in parallel. On a normally-closed zone, in-
stall Napco normally-open tamper switches (closed when set)
in series. There are two tamper switch provisions in the cabi-
net:
1. To prevent cabinet removal from the wall, there are three
mounting holes on the left side of the cabinet; another
hole on the back that allows the switch button to contact
the wall.
2. To prevent opening the cabinet door, there are three
mounting holes on the right side of the cabinet. When
mounted, the tamper-switch button should contact the
inside of the door. Be sure to alert the user that opening
the enclosure door will cause a tamper alarm.
KEYPAD MOUNTING (Keypad model RP1054e)
Opening the keypad. There are two slats along the bot-
tom edge of the keypad about 1 inch from each side. To
open, insert a medium screwdriver into either slot and push
up with a slight twisting motion to release the retainer tab.
Repeat for the other slot. Pull out at the bottom and lift off the
two hooks at the top.
This keypad features a handy pull-up reference label. Be-
fore mounting the keypad onto the wall, push the Sliding La-
bel Plate (with label and felt backing affixed and handle facing
forward) down the guides at the rear of the keypad until it
snaps into place. Once installed, the Sliding Label Plate can-
not be removed without first removing the keypad from the
wall.
When installing the rear case, be sure that the words
"TOP" and "UP" (molded into the case) are properly oriented.
MA1008e / 1008eM Installation Instructions
The rear case is provided with a variety of holes to accommo-
date virtually any mounting situation. The four angled elon-
gated holes are for mounting directly into a wall using appro-
priate screws; these holes will allow leveling adjustment. If
installing into a double-gang box, insert mounting screws
through the two vertical elongated holes on the left side of the
case and into the box. If the box is visible when viewed from
the front, adjust the keypad vertically, then tighten the screws.
Then, using hardware suitable far the mounting surface, add
one or two screws at the right side of the keypad case directly
into the wall to ensure a secure installation.
Keypad Wiring (Also see Wiring Diagram)
Connections to the keypad are summarized in the following
table. Avoid routing keypad wiring close to zone wiring.
Note: If using a soldering iron, avoid splashing solder onto
keypad circuit board or components.

*Wire additional Panic Switches in parallel. Insulate both
white wires if not used (a short will cause a panic alarm).
Remote Panic. To connect a remote (Police) panic but-
ton, splice the two white keypad wires to a normally-open
momentary-contact pushbutton switch. Similarly, additional
panic buttons may be wired in parallel with the first, as
needed. If remote panic will not be used, insulate both white
wires, as a short across them will cause a panic alarm. Note
that in UL installations, remote panic buttons must be located
in the same room as the keypad, with no intervening barriers.
Backlighting. Keypad backlighting requires no additional
wiring. In normal use, the keypad is always dimly backlit. To
reduce or disable backlighting, see Keypad Jumper Options,
which follows.
Keypad Jumper Options
Several white jumpers provide a variety of options. View-
ing the keypad from the front, these jumpers are conveniently
located at the top edge (Jumper D) and along the right side
edge (top to bottom: Jumpers C, B, A and E) for easy access.
Disable Keypad Panic. Cut Jumper A to disable all three
keypad panic features. (Cutting Jumper A does not disable
the two white remote-panic wires).
Disable Keypad Sounder. Cut Jumper B to completely
disable the sounder.
Disable Touchpad Backlight. Cut Jumper C to disable
touchpad backlighting.
Reduce Touchpad Backlight. Cut Jumper D to reduce
backlight intensity.
