2 Brinks Keypad
3) Mount at height convenient for use, typically 55 to 60 inches above the floor. A wire must be run from the
Keypad to the Power Supply, so choose the location wisely to minimize the difficulty of running the wire. The
Keypad is designed to be mounted on drywall or wood. Mounting on metal studs, or any type of brick, stone, or
concrete block will likely reduce the wireless range of the Keypad.
4) Hold back plate level up to the wall where the Keypad will be mounted and mark area for wires to run through
wall
5) Make hole in wall. Run wires (recommended 18 gauge stranded wire) from the mounting location of Keypad to
the outlet where Power Supply will be mounted.
6) Mount the Keypad back plate to the wall using 2 drywall screws.
7) Attach the wires to the power terminals of the Keypad. If the wire is color coded, note the attachment color used
for the positive terminal of the Keypad. This same color wire should connect to the positive terminal of the
Power Supply. The Keypad has a protection circuit in case the wires are connected with the wrong polarity.
Later, when the Power Supply is mounted, if the Keypad does not receive power from the Power Supply, switch
the polarity of the wire connections on the Power Supply.
8) Snap the front of the Keypad, contained the printed circuit boards onto the back plate, first hooking the top of
the Keypad on the top of the back plate, and then rotating the bottom of the Keypad into position. The rotating
action should be relatively free and require a minimum of force. If any pressure or difficulty is encountered, do
not apply force. Investigate the routing of the wires and the alignment of the plastics and components and then
re-try the rotating action. The Keypad will snap at the bottom to lock its mounting.
Note: You must be free of static electricity before handling the Power Supply. Touch a bare metal surface or wear a
grounding strap to discharge yourself.
1) Select an outlet on which to mount the Power Supply. Choose an outlet that is preferably close to the location
where the Keypad is mounted.
2) Find the circuit breaker or fuse controlling the outlet to which the Power Supply will be mounted and
disconnect power to the outlet by turning the circuit breaker off or removing the fuse.
3) Remove the center screw attaching the outlet cover to the outlet.
4) Attach the wires to the Power Supply terminals, noting the polarity of the wire colors (if any). The Power
Supply generates a polarity sensitive +5 volts DC. If the Keypad does not receive power from the Power Supply,
switch the polarity of the wire connections on the Power Supply.
5) The Power Supply contains a tab that protrudes above the Power Supply. The Power Supply must be mounted
so that the hole in the tab is aligned with the center screw hole of the outlet cover. This may require changing
the vertical orientation of the Power Supply in order to find the direction which permits the hole in the tab to
align with the center screw hole of the outlet cover.
6) Insert the outlet screw through both the tab and the center screw hole of the outlet cover, and tighten as
necessary. The tab and the cover should be snug against the outlet, but not so tight that it causes flexing or stress
on either the tab or the outlet cover.
7) Reconnect power to the outlet by turning the circuit breaker on or replacing the fuse.
¾ Install The Battery
Note: To avoid risk of shock or fire, install only IG180 battery
Install the IG180 rechargeable battery pack into the Keypad and allow to charge for at least 15-20 hours before using
without AC power.
1) Use a coin to gently pry open the battery cover. Lift the battery cover out and to the right to remove.
2) Turn the battery pack so that the connector with the red and black wires is near the jack inside the battery
compartment. Match the connector's polarity to the Keypad polarity in the battery compartment (the connector
notches fit into the grooves of the jack only one way). Push the battery pack connector into the jack until it
clicks into place.
3) Make sure you have a good connection by gently pulling on the battery wires. If the connection is secure, the
battery jack will remain in place.
4) Be careful to route the battery wires in a manner that will not conflict with the battery cover. Place the battery
cover back on the Keypad by inserting the bottom tab into the Keypad back plate and rotating the cover towards
the front of the Keypad until it snaps into place. The battery cover does not require much force to reinstall. If
resistance is encountered, investigate the cause and reroute any wires as necessary to permit closure with
minimal force.
