Keypad Installation Guide

Updated 

Your Keypad may be small, but it has a big job - arming and disarming your SimpliSafe® System and controlling all of your devices. You'll use your Keypad to set your entry and exit delay, siren volume, and more. The Panic Button on top can be used to signal an alarm when under duress but is also used as the test button when placing your system into Test Mode.

Requirements

  • A Gen 3 SimpliSafe® system

Before Getting Started

The Keypad comes with a mounting plate with adhesives attached to it, as well as optional screws if you would like to permanently mount it on a wall. 

To install the Keypad, you will also need:

  • Rubbing alcohol or a damp paper towel

  • A Phillips head #1 screwdriver (optional)

Watch the video below for a hands-on experience from our team of experts for the installation process

Use the guided flow below for an interactive, step-by-step experience that will help you through the installation process.

Typing on the Keypad

The Keypad uses ABC mode for typing. In this mode, you'll cycle through the corresponding characters (numbers, symbols, punctuation, letters) using the keys numbered 0-9 on your Keypad. You can learn more about typing on the Keypad in our How to Type Using the Keypad article.
