# 25 Code GTO Digital Keypad
## Instructions for Wired and Wireless Installations
> Figure: Photo of a black GTO digital keypad. The keypad has numeric buttons labeled “1 2 3”, “4 5 6”, “7 8 9”, and “0”, plus a circular button/indicator at lower left and a small circular indicator at lower right. No other readable labels.
Thank you for purchasing the GTO Digital Keypad. Be sure to read the directions carefully and completely. Before permanently mounting the keypad, please program the keypad and test its range.
IMPORTANT: Your keypad may need to be hard wired due to the fact that it must accept interference according to FCC regulations listed below. For example, applications that are relativity close to cell towers or airports may receive intermittent interference and require hard-wiring.
The GTO Digital Keypad is a multipurpose keypad that can work with other applications in addition to GTO gate openers and locks. As a wired keypad it can operate garage door openers and gate openers, that require 24 volts or less and accept normally open contacts. As a wireless keypad, the keypad must be used in conjunction with the GTO garage door receiver kit (part # RB709U-NB) on any other garage door.
SAFETY NOTE: Never install the keypad where a person can reach through the gate to activate it, or where a person can touch the gate while activating the keypad. The recommended minimum distance between the gate and keypad is 10 ft.
> FCC WARNING: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
>
> NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules

> - **Power Input:** Used to connect power supply (8-24 Vac/dc) when using outside power source. Terminal label: `POWER IN`, `AC/DC`.
> - **Relay output:** Used to connect Keypad to gate opener in hard-wired applications. Terminal label: `RELAY OUTPUT`.
> - **RESET button:** Pressing this button for 2 seconds will reprogram key pad to factory settings. All codes are deleted. Default master code is 1234.
> - **Battery Holder:** Use 3 AA batteries if hard-wired power supply is not used. If external power source is used the 3 AA batteries will provide a back-up power source.
>
> The circuit board also shows a `RESET` label and battery polarity markings.
# Installing Batteries
NOTE: 3 AA batteries are required to power the keypad unless an external power supply such as the gate openers power source is used. Low voltage wire from the external power source must be connected to the POWER IN terminals on the keypad control board, if batteries are not installed.
Step 1: Remove the two screws from the bottom of the keypad and separate the keypad from its housing.
Step 2: Install 3 AA batteries (not included).
# Wireless Installation of the Keypad
NOTE: For wireless applications, the distance from the keypad to the opener’s receiver should not exceed 50 ft. Always test the keypad range before permanently mounting it.
Step 1: Mount the keypad cover using the screws provided. Set the keypad DIP switches to match your entry transmitter’s DIP switch settings.
> Figure: DIP switch setting diagram showing positions `+`, `0`, and `–`, with switches numbered `1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9`.
NOTE: If you have not changed your opener’s transmitter code from the factory setting, see the “Setting Your Personal Transmitter Code” section in the gate openers manual then set the keypad DIP switches to match the new transmitter DIP switch setting.
Step 2: Slide the keypad into the cover and secure with the small screws provided.
> Figure: Installation drawings. First drawing shows keypad cover mounted vertically, with the keypad being slid into the cover and two small screws inserted upward from the bottom. Second drawing shows the rear of the cover against a mounting surface, with two screws driven horizontally through mounting holes into the surface.

# Wired Installation of the Keypad
**NOTE:** If you also plan to power the keypad with the gate opener’s power source, run two pairs of wires as described below. One pair to hard-wire the keypad and the other pair to connect the keypad to the gate opener’s battery.
**Step 1:** Turn the gate opener’s power switch **OFF**. Use 16 gauge, stranded, direct burial low voltage wire (part no. RB509) to connect the keypad to the opener control board. Run wire through PVC pipe from the ground to keypad and from the ground to the opener control board to protect the wire from lawn mowers or grazing animals.
Determine how the wire will enter the keypad (i.e. from the back through a hole drilled in the mounting post or running the wire on the surface of the post). Remove the small rectangular knock-out on the back of the keypad cover and pull the wire into the cover. Then mount the cover to the post using the screws provided.
> Figure: Drawing of the rear keypad cover mounted on a post. A wire enters through the back of the cover. An arrow labels the small rectangular opening as “Knock-out.” Two mounting screws are shown at the right side of the cover.
**Step 2:** Wire the keypad to the gate opener control board. Strip 3/16” off the ends of one pair of low voltage wires. Attach the wires to the terminal block marked RELAY on the keypad control board as shown. Then connect wire #1 to the CYCLE terminal on the gate opener control board, and wire #2 to the COM terminal on the gate opener control board.
To wire the power supply to the keypad attach the wires to the AC/DC POWER IN terminal on the keypad control board as shown to the right. Connect the other end to the opener’s battery - one end to the POSITIVE pole and the other to the NEGATIVE pole.
**NOTE:** For a hard-wired application the jumper between the two terminals on the keypad control board must be connected (ON) as shown. This will disable the 318 MHz RF transmitter.
**Step 3:** Slide the keypad into the cover and secure with the small screws provided.
> Figure: Drawing of a keypad being slid into its wall/post-mounted cover. Two small screws below the keypad are shown with dashed guide lines indicating where they secure the keypad.
**Step 4:** With the power to the opener turned **OFF**. Remove opener control board cover and feed enough of the low voltage keypad wire through a strain relief to reach the gate opener control board terminals.
**Step 5:** Attach the wires from the keypad to the opener control board terminal blocks as shown below.
> Figure: Detail drawing comparing jumper positions. The left position is labeled “Jumper OFF” and shows the jumper disconnected; the right position is labeled “Jumper ON” and shows the jumper connected across two terminals. An arrow points from this detail to the keypad control board jumper location.
> Figure: Keypad control-board wiring diagram. The board has terminal areas labeled “RELAY OUTPUT” and “AC/DC POWER IN.” Two hard-wire conductors are labeled “#1” and “#2” and connect to RELAY OUTPUT. A pair of power wires connects to AC/DC POWER IN and is labeled “Power Supply from Opener Battery.” The hard-wire pair is labeled “Hard-wire from Gate Opener.” The keypad display illustration shows digits “1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9,” plus and minus symbols, and terminal symbols.
**Step 6:** Replace the control board cover and turn the power switch ON. Test the keypad by entering 1 2 3 4.
**Step 7:** Program your ‘Personal Master Code’ and any additional entry codes (for a total of 25 entry codes) you wish. See Programming the Keypad section.
# Control Board Connections
**NOTE:** Refer to your gate opener instruction manual for more details on wiring the gate opener control board.

# Normal Keypad Operation:
- If the user enters a 4-digit code that is matched to one of the 25 stored codes. The STATUS light should blink rapidly and the beeper should beep three times to confirm that a matched code is entered.
- No more than 20 key presses are allowed to obtain the 4-digit entry code.
**Example:**
1234 is one of the codes stored in one of the memory location.
The user can enter ‘x1234’ or ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx1234’ and the gate should be activated (x is any key). If more than 20 key presses is entered without matching one of the codes then the unit’s STATUS light should be flashing rapidly and no entry will be accepted for the next 40 seconds. The user must not enter any code for at least 40 seconds before the unit returns to normal operation; otherwise it remains in this ‘lock-down’ mode. Once the user enters a matched code, any subsequent key press within the next 40 seconds will re-activate the keypad.
## Keying Indication Summary:
| | Keying Error Alert Indication | Keying accepted confirmation Indication |
