CONFIGURING THE 1686H, 1686V and 1689 KEYPADS (V2.0 or higher)
The keypads zone number, EOL definition and tamper switch are programmed through the keypads programming mode. To
do so:
How Do I Configure The Keypad?
STEP 1: Press [ EN T ER ]
STEP 2: Enter your [IN S TA L L ER CO DE ] (default: 0000 / 000000)
STEP 3: Press the [P G ] (1686H/V) / [F N C 1] (1689) key and hold it for 3 seconds.
STEP 4: Press the desired key ([1] to [3]. See below)
STEP 5: Press [ EN T ER ] to exit programming mode
PLEASE NOTE: After two minutes, the keypad exits programming mode.
Key [1] - Keypad Zone Selection (Zone Programming on page 4)
Key [1] determines whether the keypads zone is Keypad Zone 1 or Keypad Zone 2. When key [1] is OFF (not illuminated),
the keypads zone is Keypad Zone 1. When key [1] is ON (illuminated), the keypads zone is Keypad Zone 2.
Key [1] OFF - Keypad Zone 1 (default)
Key [1] ON - Keypad Zone 2
Key [2] - EOL Definition
Key [2] determines the keypad zones EOL definition. When key [2] is OFF (not illuminated), EOL is disabled and the keypad
zone uses the on-board EOL resistor. When key [2] is ON (illuminated), EOL is enabled and the keypad zone requires that an
external EOL resistor be connected (refer to Spectra 1728EX and 1728 PCB Layout on page 38 and Spectra 1738EX and
1738 PCB Layout on page 39 for more details).
Key [2] OFF - EOL disabled
Key [2] ON - EOL enabled (default)
Key [3] - On-Board Tamper
Key [3] enables or disables the keypads on-board tamper switch. When key [3] is OFF (not illuminated), the tamper switch is
disabled. When key [3] is ON (illuminated), the tamper switch is enabled.
Key [3] OFF - On-board tamper switch disabled
Key [3] ON - On-board tamper switch enabled
PLEASE NOTE: The keypad can be ordered with or without a tamper switch. If the keypad has no tamper
switch, key [3] will be OFF by default. If the keypad has a tamper switch, key [3] will be ON by default.

Programming Guide
CONFIGURING THE 1686H, 1686V and 1689 KEYPADS (Prior to V2.0)
The keypads zone number and EOL definition are defined through the jumpers located on the PCB board. The jumpers are
as follows:
J1 - Keypad Zone Select Jumper (Zone Programming on page 4)
Jumper J1 determines whether the keypads zone is Keypad Zone 1 or Keypad Zone 2. When the jumper is OFF, the
keypads zone is Keypad Zone 2. When the jumper is ON, the keypads zone is Keypad Zone 1.
J1 OFF - Keypad Zone 2
J1 ON - Keypad Zone 1
J2 - EOL Definition Jumper
Jumper J2 determines the keypad zones EOL definition. When the jumper is OFF, EOL is disabled and the keypad zone
uses the on-board EOL resistor. When the jumper is ON, EOL is enabled and the keypad zone requires that an external EOL
resistor be connected (refer to Spectra 1728EX and 1728 PCB Layout on page 38 and Spectra 1738EX and 1738 PCB
Layout on page 39 for more details).
J2 OFF - EOL disabled
J2 ON - EOL enabled
ZONE PROGRAMMING
When programming zones, the zone assignments are dependent on where the detection devices in the system are
connected. Do not assign inputs from different modules to the same expansion input. In 1728/EX control panel
installations that require using mostly the expansion inputs, refer to Reassign Zones to Expansion Inputs (see section [126]
option [8]).

PROGRAMMABLE OUTPUTS
Each PGM Deactivation event can be used as another start (activation) event if their respective PGM timer (see sections
[066] to [068]) is programmed with a value other than 000.
Example: section [120] = 05 03 02: this means PGM1 will activate whenever partition 2 is Stay Armed.

USER OPERATION
PARTITIONING
The Spectra system is equipped with a partitioning feature which can divide the alarm system into two distinct areas
identified as Partition 1 and Partition 2. Partitioning can be used in installations where shared security systems are more
practical, such as an office/warehouse building. If the system is not partitioned, all User Codes and features will be
recognized as belonging to Partition 1.
How does a partitioned system work?
Users can only arm or disarm their assigned partitions.
Only zones assigned to Partition 1 will arm or disarm when Partition 1 is armed or disarmed.
Only zones assigned to Partition 2 will arm or disarm when Partition 2 is armed or disarmed.
Zones assigned to both partitions will arm when both partitions are armed and will disarm when
at least one disarms.
Some of the systems features can be programmed separately for each partition.
PROGRAMMING ACCESS CODES
User Access Codes are personal identification numbers that allow users to enter certain programming modes, arm or disarm
the alarm system as well as activate or deactivate PGMs. Spectra security systems support the following:
System Master Code can arm or disarm any partition using any arming method and can create, modify or delete any User
Access Code. Only the System Master Code can modify or delete User Access Codes assigned to both partitions.
Master Code 1 is permanently assigned to partition 1 and can be used to create, modify or delete User Access Codes that
are assigned to partition 1.
Master Code 2 is permanently assigned to partition 2 (except when partitioning is disabled, Master Code 2 will be assigned
to partition 1) and can be used to create, modify or delete User Access Codes that are assigned to the same partition.
45 User Access Codes (including 1 Duress code)
How Do I Program Access Codes?
1) Press [E NT E R]
2) Key in the [S YST EM M AS T ER C OD E ] or [ MA ST E R C OD E ]
3) Key in 3-digit [ SEC T ION ] (see User Code Table)
4) Key in new 4- or 6-digit [A C CE SS C OD E ]

Programming Guide
PROGRAMMING CHIME ZONES
This feature allows users to program which zones will be Chime Enabled. A Chime Enabled zone will cause the keypad to
emit a rapid intermittent beep tone (BE EP - BEE P -B EEP -BE EP ) advising the user every time it is opened. Each keypad must be
Chime Programmed separately. Keypad chimes must be re-programmed if the system suffers a total power loss.
10-ZON E LED KEYPAD :

Press and hold any key from [1] to [10] for 3 seconds to activate or deactivate Chiming for zones 1 to 10. For example, press
and hold the [1] key to enable chiming on zone 1. If, after pressing and holding a key, the keypad emits a confirmation beep,
this means the chime feature has been enabled for that zone. If the keypad emits a Rejection Beep, this means the Chime
feature has been disabled for the corresponding zone.
16-ZON E LED KEYPAD :

Press and hold the [9] key. Enter the 2-digit (01 to 16) zone number(s). When the corresponding LED is on, the zone is
chimed. When the corresponding LED is off, the zone is unchimed. When the desired zones are chimed, press [E NT E R].
LCD K EYPAD :
Press and hold the [9] key. Enter the 2-digit (01 to 16) zone number(s) or use the arrow keys to scroll through the zones.
When the appropriate zone is displayed, press the [F N C 1] key. When the desired zones are chimed, press [EN T ER ].
KEYPAD MUTING
Press and hold the [C L EA R ] key for 3 seconds to enable or disable keypad muting. When muted, the keypad will only beep
when a key is pressed or when the keypad emits a Rejection or Confirmation Beep. All other beep functions are disabled.
KEYPAD BACKLIGHT (1686H and 1686V Only)
The illumination level behind the keys can be modified to suit the users needs. There are four backlight levels. The [M EM ] key
is used to set the desired level. Each consecutive push of the [ ME M] key will increase the backlight level until the maximum
level is reached. After reaching the maximum level, the backlight level will return to the lowest level and the whole process is
repeated. To change the backlight level:
How do I Modify The Backlight?
1) Press and hold the [M EM ] key for 3 seconds
2) The [M EM ] key will illuminate
3) Press the [M EM ] key to set the desired backlight level
4) Press [ CL E AR ] or [E NT E R] to exit
QUICK FUNCTION KEYS

INSTA LLER TEST MODE
[E NT E R] + [I NS TA L L ER C OD E ] + [ T B L ] or [T RB L ]
The Installer Test Mode allows you to perform walk tests where the bell/siren will squawk once to indicate an open zone and
twice to indicate a closed zone. To enter this mode, press [ EN T ER ] + [ IN ST AL L E R C OD E ] + [T B L ] or [ T RB L ]. The keypad will emit
a Confirmation Beep. To disable this mode, press the [ TB L ] or [T R B L] key again. The keypad will emit a Rejection Beep.
TEST REPORT
[E NT E R] + [I NS TA L L ER /MA S TE R C OD E ] + [ ME M]
Sends the Test Report report code programmed in section [211] to the central station.
CAL L WINLOAD S OFTW ARE

[E NT E R] + [I NS TA L L ER /MA S TE R C OD E ] + [ BY P ]
This feature is used to establish communication between the control panel and a computer using the WinLoad Software.
After entering this mode, the control panel will dial the telephone number programmed in section [150].
CAN CEL COMM UNICAT ION

[E NT E R] + [I NS TA L L ER /MA S TE R C OD E ] + [ STA Y ]
Cancels all communication until the next reportable event. If the Master Code was used, only communication with WinLoad
would be cancelled.
ANSWER WIN LOA D SOF TWA RE

[E NT E R] + [I NS TA L L ER /MA S TE R C OD E ] + [ FO RC E ]
Forces the control panel to pick-up an incoming telephone call.

CONNECTING MORE THAN TWO KEYPADS
If there are more than 2 keypads connected to the control panel and at least one keypad zone is being used, connect as
shown and program as described in the Spectra Control Panels Reference & Installation manual.
When a 1641 LCD keypad is connected to Spectra, the Keypad Zone Sending option (Option [2] key [1]) determines
whether the status of the keypad zone will be transmitted to the control panel. Refer to the 1641 Installers Guide for
more info. The Keypad Zone Sending option of the 1641 keypad must be enabled during the following conditions:
If you are using both keypad zones and at least one is from a 1641 keypad.
If you are using the keypad zones of other types of keypads, such as a 1686H 10-zone LED keypad, and the keypad
zone definition of the 1641 keypad (keypad zone 1 or keypad zone 2; Option [2] key [3]) matches that of another
connected keypad.
