1. INSTALLATION
The Premier RKP4, RKP8 and RKP16 Remote Keypads are suitable for use with the following Texecom Control Panels: Premier 412, Premier 816 and Premier 832. Up to 6 keypads may be connected to the system.
1.1 Mounting
Open the keypad by carefully inserting a small flat-blade screwdriver into either half of the double slot at the base of the unit. Gently twist the screwdriver to ease the retaining clips. Do NOT use excessive force. The front and flap can now be removed. The PCB assembly is hinged for easy access. Alternatively the PCB assembly can be unclipped and completely removed if required. Mount the keypad using at least two appropriate countersunk screws (no larger than No. 6). A keyhole slot has been provided to assist mounting and aid levelling.

NEVER set two RKPs to the same address. Keypads are factory set to address 1 (all switches off).
1.3 Wiring
It is strongly recommended that the system is completely powered down (mains and battery) before wiring a keypad. Connect the keypad to the control panel using 4-core cable as follows: INS161-2
Keypad + T R
Control Panel Data Bus + Data Bus Data Bus T Data Bus R
Up to six keypads may be connected in parallel (star) or series (daisy-chain) or any combination.
!"
When using long cable runs or connecting keypads in series (daisy-chain) ensure that the voltage at the keypad is no less than 10.0V. When using 6-core or 8-core cable always use the spare cores to double-up on 0V. This will allow longer cable runs particularly when connecting keypads in series (daisy-chain). As a rule trebling-up on 0V will be more beneficial than doubling-up on 12V and 0V.
Figure 1 - Cable Entry Cable entry MUST use either the top left-hand hole or the cable channel. NEVER run cables behind the PCB.

1.4 Programming
