Integration with other security systems is not provided either. KeyPad Fibra works as part of the Ajax system, exchanging data with the hub using the secure Fibra wired protocol. The wired connection range is up to 2,000 meters when using a U/UTP cat.5 twisted pair.

00:00 00:02 KeyPad Fibra is a touch keypad to control the Ajax system. It controls the security modes of the entire object or individual groups and also allows you to enable or disable the Night Mode You can control the security modes with KeyPad Fibra using general or personal codes.
As the keypad goes into power saving mode, it resets the commands entered. Access codes KeyPad Fibra supports from 4 to 6 digit codes. Entering the code should be confirmed by pressing one of the buttons: (Arm), (Disarm) and (Night Mode).
Ajax apps with a title associated with this code. The number of codes supported depends on the hub model. KeyPad Fibra also supports arming without entering a code, if the Arming without Code function is enabled in the keypad settings .
If the security system is disarmed with a duress code erroneously, contact the security company monitoring station. The keypad supports both common and personal duress codes. The common duress code is set in the keypad settings. The personal duress code is set by the user individually in the hub settings.

KeyPad Fibra keypad has the Function button. The button can work in one of three modes: Alarm — the panic button mode. After pressing, the system sends an alarm to the security company monitoring station and users and activates the sirens connected to the system.
Page 10
The option works only if the Interconnected Fire Detectors Alarm option is enabled in hub settings. With the OS Malevich 2.12 update, users can mute fire detector alarms in their groups and at the same time not affect the operation of detectors in those groups to which they do not have access.
Page 11
KeyPad Fibra participates in arming in two stages. This process is similar to arming with a personal or common code on a keypad. The process should be completed by re-arming with SpaceControl or restoring the terminating detector (for example, closing the door with DoorProtect Fibra installed).

When choosing where to place KeyPad Fibra, consider the parameters that affect the operation of the device: Fibra Signal Strength. Cable length for connecting KeyPad Fibra. KeyPad Fibra is mounted on a flat vertical surface with the bundled screws. The keypad is intended for indoor installation only. For convenience, we recommend...

indicates the signal strength: Three bars — excellent signal strength. Two bars — good signal strength. One bar — low signal strength, stable operation is not guaranteed. Crossed out icon — no signal, stable operation is not guaranteed. The following factors affect the signal strength: The number of detectors connected to one Fibra line.
Page 16
Topologies Currently, Ajax systems support two topologies: Beam (Radial wiring) and Ring. Beam connection method (Radial wiring) occupies one Fibra line of the hub. Only the segment that remains physically connected to the hub will function in the event of a line break. All devices connected after the breakpoint will lose connection with the hub.
Page 17
Beam (Radial wiring) Ring occupies one Fibra line of the hub occupies two Fibra lines of the hub up to 8 beams with the same hub up to 4 rings with the same hub up to 2,000 m of wired communication for the up to 500 m of wired communication for the same line same ring...
Page 18
Different types of devices can be connected to the same Fibra line. For example, you can connect opening detectors, motion detectors with photo verification support, sirens, and keypads to the same line. The devices are connected to the Fibra line one by one, as shown on the figure. Line branching is not supported.
Page 19
Cable length and type The maximum range of a wired connection using the Beam (Radial) topology is 2,000 meters, and using the Ring topology — 500 meters. Recommended cable types: U/UTP cat.5 4 × 2 × 0.51, copper conductor. Signal cable 4 × 0.22, copper conductor. If you use a different type of cable, the communication range for wired connections may vary.
To make sure that the project is calculated correctly and that such a system will work in real practice, we have developed a communication range calculator of Fibra lines . The calculator helps to check the quality of communication and cable length for wired Fibra devices with the selected configuration at the system design stage.
Preparing for installation Cable arrangement When preparing to route cables, check the electrical and fire safety regulations in your region. Strictly follow these standards and regulations. It is safest to route cables inside walls, floors, and ceilings: this way they will be invisible and unavailable for intruders.
Try to avoid any deviations from the security system project design. Violation of the basic installation rules and the recommendations of this manual lead to incorrect operation, as well as loss of connection with the KeyPad Fibra. Check the cables for bends and physical damage before installation. Replace the damaged cables.
Recommended cable lug sizes: 0.75 to 1 mm². Installation and connection Before installing KeyPad Fibra, make sure that you have selected the optimal location and that it meets the requirements of this manual. Cables should be hidden from prying eyes and located in places inaccessible to intruders to reduce the chance of sabotage.
