Keypad Installation

Mount the keypads near the exit-entry doors. The PC2550RK keypad has a red, a black, a green and a yellow wire
on the back. Connect these four wires to the four keypad terminals on the control panel using four conductor (quad)
telephone wire. Up to three keypads may be connected to one PC2585. Connect all green wires from the keypads to
the "GRN" terminal on the panel. Connect all yellow wires from the keypads to the "YEL" terminal on the panel. Connect
all red wires from the keypads to the "RED" terminal. Connect all black wires from the keypads to the "BLK" terminal.
The following DSC keypads are also compatible with the PC2585:
• LED625
• LED625T
• LCD600
• LCD600T
Consult your DSC dealer for information regarding these keypads and required software versions.

Power-up Procedure

If the keypads are located a distance from the panel, install an extra keypad temporarily at the panel during power
up testing. An extra keypad with a short length of cable and alligator clips attached is helpful for testing and
programming PC2585 systems.
Connect the transformer and wait approximately 5 seconds.
Enter a few keypad commands and open a zone to be sure that the panel and keypad are responding to signals. If
the keypad does not respond and there are no indicators ON, check for AC voltage at the "AC" terminals. If there is
16 VAC present, check that the keypad wiring is correct and check the keypad/auxiliary supply fuse. If the keypad/
auxiliary supply fuse is blown check for a short between the keypad red and black wires before replacing the fuse.
If the keypad is responding normally, connect the battery. The red battery lead attaches to the positive battery post
and the black battery lead attaches to the negative battery post.
NOTE: THE PC2585 WILL NOT START UP IF 'AC' IS OFF.

Testing The System

See Installer's test, [ ][6][Master Code][0], or do the following. Contact the monitoring station to request a transmission
test. Plug the telephone cord into the RJ31-X jack. If a DTS-1 is being used to monitor communicator transmissions,
connect as described in "Bench Testing" section and place the DTS-1 in the line mode by pressing the red "LINE/
LOCAL" button. Arm the panel, wait for the exit delay to expire and trip a detector on an instant circuit. Wait for the
communication to complete. Disarm panel and check with the monitoring station to confirm the transmission. Perform
additional transmissions required by the monitoring station.
Check the "Trouble" light; if it is ON, press [ ] then [2] to determine if there is a system trouble. The "Trouble Display"
section in "Keypad Commands" gives a description of the different trouble conditions.

Instructing End-User

Fill out the system reference guide in the PC2585 End User's manual. Check off sections in the manual which apply
to the user's system and make additional notes if necessary.
Describe the system to an authorised user. Describe arming and disarming procedures. Describe the basic keypad
functions. Assist the user in working through examples of each type of command.
Provide the user(s) with the instruction manual and instruct them to read the manual to become familiar with the system
operation.
Instruct the user to test the system on a regular basis as described in the user manual. The Master Code should be
changed from the default setting and recorded in the End User Manual.
