Introduction
The Remote Keypad (2GIG-EDG-RK) is a wall-mounted, full-color, touch screen interface that
provides all of the same easy-to-use keypad functions available on the Control Panel. It is
designed for indoor use only and gives users the ability to arm and disarm the system, see the
status of sensor zones, and control Smart Home devices.
Choose the Location for the 2GIG EDGE Remote Keypad’s Backplate
Before mounting the backplate, choose a location. Work with the end user to determine the best
location. Always choose an indoor location protected from temperature extremes.
Recommended Tools and Equipment
To install the system, these tools and equipment are recommended:
➣ 2-Conductor Power Wire (if connecting power supply to the panel’s terminal block)
➣ Drywall Saw (or equivalent)
➣ Screwdrivers
➣ Staple Gun
➣ Wire Stripper
Choose the Wall Location
To choose a wall location:
➣ Always choose a location that is above ground and centrally located. Do NOT install
the Panel below ground level, because wireless range may be impaired.
➣ Do NOT connect the Panel to a light switch-controlled outlet.
➣ Avoid choosing a location that can be easily viewed from doors or windows.
➣ Avoid choosing a location that is within reach of small children.
➣ Avoid choosing a location in direct sunlight.
