    Hi Everyone, I am looking to add a wired 2nd keypad to my system , i have my main keypad at the front door and i am adding one for the master bedroom, the keypad I have in the bedroom has terminals marked 1 2 3 4 instead of + - A B , does anyone know how I should wire it because if i just wire it as 1 = + 2=- 3 = A and 4 =B I am getting a fault on my main keypad saying " No RKP Comms"

    Wire them all parallel.
    1-1
    2-2
    3-3
    4-4

    You then add and id the new keypad from the engineer menu.

    Thanks KoolKid, But as soon as I wire the 2nd Keypad in Parallel I get the "No RKP Comms" fault on the Keypad at the front door so I cant add the New keypad as I cant clear the fault.. The Font door Keypad has connections As Follows:
    12v
    0v
    A
    B

    So I assumed that I could Just add the new Keypad at the Panel and Connect as follows
    + to No 1 on the 2nd Keypad
    - to Number 2 on the 2nd keypad
    A to Number 3 on the 2nd Keypad
    B to Number 4 ......


    .. to But it Just aint working for me

    Thanks for the help

    Ah well.. off to the Electrical shop for me .

    Thanks again for the help.
