Set up and use your Ring Alarm Keypad

Your Ring Alarm Keypad gives you hands-on control of Ring Alarm. It’s used to arm and disarm your Ring Alarm system when you’re inside your home or business.

Keypad features:

• Mounting

  : You can mount the Keypad on a wall or place it on a table near a door you use often. 
• Power

  : It connects to power using the included USB power supply and cable, but you can use it plugged in or unplugged. It takes a few hours to charge the internal rechargeable battery, and it should last for about 7 months, depending on usage.
• Siren: The Ring Alarm Keypad acts as a second siren that sounds when your Ring Alarm is triggered.

   
• Chirps

  : Enable chirp tones in the app under the keypad device page to hear when a sensor is triggered

Additional Keypad specifications:

	Keypad   * Trigger the Panic Alarm by pressing the ✔ and X buttons.  * Bypass sensors when you press the ✔ button  * Adjustable volume for chirps and announcements
	Keypad (2nd Generation) * Emergency buttons to trigger Panic, Fire and Medical alarms (simply press and hold for 3 seconds)  * New Keypad buttons and LEDs provide tactile and visual cues * Smaller, improved design makes it easier to mount and use

Where should I install the Keypad?

• Install your Keypad near entry points - the doors you use most often to come and go.
• You may want to install an additional Keypad in an upstairs bedroom or basement family room, for convenient arming and disarming.

Where should I avoid using a Keypad?

• Don’t use it outdoors or in environments with extreme hot or cold temperatures.
• Don’t use inside detached garages, warehouses or sheds. Alarm devices should always be used in the same building as the Base Station.
• Don’t use near water or chemicals.
• Keep out of the reach of small children (who may play with the keypad)
