Language selection
At first power up the keypad will display the language selection. To
change the language displayed by the keypad at any time after the initial
selection go to keypad parameter Select Language (04.000).
3.7
Customising the status screen
The status screen is the screen shown by the keypad after power up and
can show up to ten parameters (eight in the main body of the screen plus
top left and top right of the screen). The up and down buttons can be
used to scroll through the status parameters. The keypad is pre-
configured to display a selection of drive parameters based on the drive
model and mode of operation. It is possible to change the parameters
shown on the status screen and to apply different units and scaling to
these parameters.
To customise the parameters shown on the status screen, set keypad
parameter Use Custom Status Parameters (01.012) to On. Keypad
parameters 01.000 to 01.009 can then be used to select the drive or
option module parameter to show in the status screen.
Keypad parameters 01.020 to 01.039 can be used to apply scaling and
different units to the status screen parameters selected in keypad
parameters 01.002 to 01.009. Scaling and units can be applied without
setting keypad parameter Use Custom Status Parameters (01.012) to
On.
All status parameters, scaling and units can be returned to defaults by
setting keypad parameter Reset Status Parameters (01.011) to On.
3.8
Security
The keypad supports drive security. If the drive is configured to only
show menu 0 parameters, then the keypad will change this to show all
menus. If security is set on the drive, then the keypad will request the
security code when attempting to go to the main menu on the keypad
independent of the level of security set on the drive. Entering the correct
security code will allow the keypad to show the main menu. Entering an
incorrect security code will cause the keypad to return to showing the
status screen.
See the relevant drive user guide for details of how to set drive security.

Connecting to the keypad via Bluetooth
The KI-Keypad Plus supports Bluetooth to provide the ability for a PC
running the Connect PC tool to communicate with the drive wirelessly.
The KI-Keypad Plus must be physically connected to the drive either by
being fitted to the drive or connected as a remote keypad via a 485 serial
link. The KI-Keypad Plus does not communicate with the drive via
Bluetooth but instead adds a Bluetooth interface to the drive.
To pair a PC running the Connect PC tool with the KI-Keypad Plus follow
the instructions below.
1. Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on the KI-Keypad Plus (a white
Bluetooth icon will be shown). This is the default condition.
2. Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on the PC.
3. Ensure that Connect V02.21.00 or later is installed on the PC.
4. Run Connect and select "New project from network scan".
5. Select "Scan BluetoothLE".
6. Once the drive has been detected, tick the checkbox next to the
drive that you would like to add to the Connect project.
7. Connect will then ask for the Bluetooth pairing code. This will be
shown on the display of the keypad for approximately 10 seconds. If
the code needs to be displayed again, click cancel and tick the
checkbox next to the required device again. Alternatively, go to
keypad parameter Bluetooth Pairing Code (03.006). The Bluetooth
Pairing Code is generated every time the keypad is powered up.
8. The PC and keypad are now paired. Click "New project with selected
drives" to add the drive to the Connect project.
9. Connect can then go online with the drive via Bluetooth. The
Bluetooth icon on the keypad will turn blue when a Bluetooth
connection is active between the drive and keypad.
NOTE
Bluetooth devices can generally have up to seven connections, so in
theory a PC could have active Bluetooth connections to up to seven
drives. However, this assumes that the PC doesn't have any other
Bluetooth connections such as to a mouse, keyboard or headset, etc. An
attempt to establish connections to too many devices will significantly
degrade the performance of the Bluetooth communication links.
Therefore, it is recommended that that Connect is online with only a
small number of drives via Bluetooth at any one time.
