Be sure to read the directions carefully and completely. Before permanently mounting the keypad, please program the keypad and test its range. IMPORTANT: Your keypad may need to be hard wired due to the fact that it must accept interference according to FCC regulations listed below. For example, applications that are relativity close to cell towers or airports may receive intermittent interference and require hard-wiring. The FM137 Digital Keypad is a multipurpose keypad that can work with other applications in addition to Nortek Security & Control (NSC) gate openers and locks. As a wireless keypad it can be used with any gate or garage door opener and must be used in conjunction with the NSC garage door receiver kit (part # RB709U-NB). SAFETY NOTE: Never install the keypad where a person can reach through the gate to activate it, or where a person can touch the gate while activating the keypad. The recommended minimum distance between the gate and keypad is 10 ft. Keypad Features Keypad · The keypad illuminates and beeps at the press of any key. · When a valid code is entered, the STATUS light will blink rapidly. · The keypad remains active for 40 seconds after entering a valid code: pressing any key on the keypad while the gate is in motion will stop the gate; pressing any key while the gate is stopped will cause the gate to reverse direction. After 40 seconds, the keypad will beep 3 three times and go into "idle" mode. · If more than 20 key presses are entered without matching an Entry Code, the STATUS light will flahs rapidly, and error tone will sound for 1 second, and the keypad will go into "lock-down" mode for 40 seconds. · If more than 10 seconds elapse between key presses, the keypad will beep 3 three times and go into "idle" mode. Master and Entry Codes · Up to 25 Entry Codes may be programmed into the keypad. · Temporary Entry Codes can be programmed to expire within one to seven (17) days. · Entry Codes remain stored in memory even when the keypad batteries go dead. · All Entry Codes are deleted by pressing the RESET button on the keypad; Master Code defaults to "1234." 3 FOR YOUR RECORDS Please record the following information. Be sure to keep all receipts for proof of purchase. Refer to this information when calling NSC for service or assistance with your keypad. DATE OF PURCHASE: PLACE OF PURCHASE: 1 2 3 4 Factory Code Your Master Code Additional Codes (Up to 25): 4 Keypad Description Front Figure 1 123 ABC DEF 456 GHI JKL MNO 789 PRS TUV WXY 0 Inside Figure 2 OUT COM. RESET ++ + 1. Program button: Use for/during program process. 2. Status Light: The LED will blink once when any key is pressed and provides visual feedback during access code programming. 3.

When holding the RESET button down, you will hear 1 initial beep, followed by a period of silence for ~5 seconds then 3 beeps in a row. Release the button after the 3 beeps at the end. All codes are deleted. Default master code is 1234. 5. Battery Holder: Use 4 AA batteries if hard-wired power supply is not used. If external power source is used the 4 AA batteries will provide a back-up power source. 6. Installing Batteries NOTE: 3 AA batteries are required to power the keypad. Step 1: Remove the two screws from the bottom of the keypad (Figure 3) and separate the keypad from its housing. Step 2: Install four (3) AA batteries (not included). (Figure 2) NOTE: Choose wireless or wired installation (not both) and proceed to appropriate section. 5 Wireless Installation of the Keypad NOTE: For wireless applications, the distance from the keypad to the opener's receiver should not exceed 50 ft. Always test the keypad range before permanently mounting it. Learning an FM137 to an MM371, MM372, MM571 or MM572 Automatic Gate Opener 1. With the power on for your control box, press and hold the gate opener's middle orange (S3) button ( ) located on the control board until you hear a beep, then release it. LED1 S2 2. Next, enter the master code or an entry code, but continue pressing the last digit until the control board beeps again. Any programmed code will work. a. Example: Press 1, 2, 3, and then hold down 4 until the control board beeps. LED2 S3 3. Test the keypad code by pressing any single digit if the keypad has not yet timed out. LED3 S4 NOTE: If you hear three short beeps in succession, the programming mode has timed out and you will need to repeat steps 1 and 2. To forget the FM137, simply follow steps 1 and 2 above then test the keypad to verify that it no longer activates the Operator. Learning an FM137 to an MM271 or MM272 Automatic Gate Opener (A dip-switch type transmitter may be required) 1. Use the On/Off switch on the control box to power the system down. 2. Enter the master code or an entry code but continue pressing the last digit. Any programmed code will work. a. Example: Press 1, 2, 3, and then hold down 4. 3. While still holding the last digit of the code, power the system on with the on/off switch. 4. After the startup beep, there will be a long silence for about 10 seconds, followed by a continuous beep. Keep holding the last digit of the code on the keypad. 5. Release the button on the keypad. 6. Test the keypad code by pressing any single digit if the keypad has not yet timed out. To forget the FM137, simply follow steps 1 through 5 above then test the keypad to verify that it no longer activates the Operator. Note for MM271: The gate must be in the closed position with the arm extended to delete a PIN code. The gate can be in any position to add a PIN code. If programming fails on an MM271/MM272: You must use a dip-switch type transmitter (FM134/FM135, MM3BT, RB741/ RB742) to program the keypad. Simply match the dip-switch patterns between the transmitter and FM137 then learn the transmitter to the system. Contact Tech Support for a complimentary dip-switch type transmitter to program the FM137 if you do not have one. 6 Wireless Installation of the Keypad NOTE: For wireless applications, the distance from the keypad to the opener's receiver should not exceed 50 ft.

The STATUS light should blink rapidly indicating that it is sending command to operator. · No more than 20 key presses are allowed to obtain the 4-digit entry code. Example: 1234 is one of the codes stored in one of the memory location. The user can enter "x1234" or "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx1234" and the gate should be activated (x is any key). If more than 20 key presses is entered without matching one of the codes then the unit's STATUS light should be flashing rapidly and no entry will be accepted for the next 40 seconds. The user must not enter any code for at least 40 seconds before the unit returns to normal operation; otherwise it remains in this "lock-down" mode. Once the user enters a matched code, any subsequent key press within the next 40 seconds will cause the keypad to send command to gate opener.
