HKC Panel swap out - some help please.

Cyrus · 03-08-2023 10:23AM #1

Following on from my HKC panel door woes have decided to upgrade said panel to the newer no door touch screen one, i believe its a straight swap.

Few qns for the more knowledgable,

My assumptions for first steps are:

Cut power to alarm via breaker

Disconnect massive battery in the alarm box (presume this is required?)

Then need to enter engineer menu on existing keypad and remove it? Can someone tell me the exact menus and where do i go from there?

Is there much involved in wiring in the new keypad?

Thanks in advance

Yep . Easy enough once you have engineer code - Connect the new keypad the new keypad in place of the old one. No need to port down the panel as the low voltage outputs are protected anyway.

Go into engineer - devices-add and ID devices - Add keypad close tamer to ID . When done do the the same and goto remove devices and remove the old keypad.
