1.1 Understanding the DS7443, DS7445, and DS7447 Keypads

The DS7443 is a 6 zone LED keypad; its LEDs represent the zones of the system.

The DS7445 is an 8 zone LED keypad; its LEDs represent the zones of the system (LEDs for zones 7 and 8 are not used).

The DS7447 is an alpha-numeric LCD keypad.

All three keypads display information on various control panel functions. A built-in sounder is used to annunciate keystroke entries and as

an interior warning device.

Volume Control (DS7445 and DS7447 only): The keypad sounder volume can be adjusted using the [1] and [4] keys along with the [*] key.

Hold the [*] key while pressing the [1] key to increase the volume or the [4] key to decrease the volume. The volume adjustment does not

affect the volume during an alarm.

Backlight Control (DS7447 only): The display backlight intensity can be adjusted using the [3] and [6] keys along with the [*] key. Hold the

[*] key while pressing the [3] key to increase the brightness or the [6] key to decrease the brightness.

NOTE: After the backlight and volume are adjusted, you must arm, then disarm the system once to store this information in the control

panel. These settings will be lost in the event of total power failure to the panel.
