DSC RFK5500 Product Description:


The DSC RFK5500 is a high-quality, slim-profile, hybrid alarm keypad with a built-in wireless receiver that provides up to a total of 64-zones hardwired and/or 32-zones of wireless expansion. The RFK500 keypad uses advanced plastics technology to achieve a clean, unobtrusive look that homeowners welcome and installers will appreciate for their easy programming and installation.

The RFK5500 keypad features an input/output terminal that can be programmed to operate as a zone input, programmable output or as a low temperature sensor. The RFK5500 keypad also includes adjustable backlist keys that address low-light situations and five programmable keys for simple one-button activation of DSC PowerSeries security system functions. The RFK5500 64-zone full message keypad supports eight languages, global partition status and full, 32-character programmable phrases. GeoArm recommends either the RFK5500 or the PK5500 PowerSeries keypad if you are going to be programming your DSC PowerSeries security system through a keypad.

To simplify system usage, the RFK5500 keypad features five programmable keys for easy one-button activation of system functions. The default tasks assigned to the five function keys are stay arming, away arming, door chime, smoke detector reset and quick exit. With the quick exit function there's no need to disarm and rearm your DSC PowerSeries security system every time an occupant leaves the house or lets the dog out, for example.

The DSC PowerSeries RFK5500 keypad has an integrated temperature sensor that can be programmed to activate when room temperature dips below 43°F (6°C) and restores at 47°F (8°C). Built-in logic prevents the panel from cycling in and out of alarm mode during minor temperature fluctuations, helping to reduce false alarms.

Unlike the similar PK5500 alarm keypad, the RFK5500 is upgraded with a 32-zone wireless receiver. The RFK5500 upgrades a hardwired DSC PowerSeries security system with capability for up to 32 wireless zones and 16 wireless keyfobs.
