KP04A is an improved version of KP04 (and which replaces it) with programmable settings replacing fixed shunts, able to be changed via Comfigurator, and the ability to upgrade its firmware via Comfigurator. KP04A firmware can be upgraded by right-clicking in Modules Tab and selecting "Check for Upgrades"

The KP04A leaflet/manual can be downloaded from http://www.cytech.biz/kp04a_keypad_with_lcd_white.html

The most noticeable visible change may be the LCD which has a whiter background. Otherwise the appearance is the same as KP04A.

Internally, the main change is the absence of shunts for the setting of ID and tamper enable. The ID is changed by using the KP04 Buttons in a similar way to KP06. All programmable settings are done via the settings mode and also by means of Comfigurator, which can be used to write and read KP04A settings


To change settings in KP04A, Engineer Code must be enabled by pressing the F and then 0 keys. Press and hold the * key for 4 seconds until "Enter Engineer Code" is seen. If Engineer Code has not been enabled, press F and 0 now and press and hold * again. Enter the Engineer code (default 6789) and the # key.

The following keys are used in the settings menu;
  • * Next Page
  • # Previous Page
  • 8 Option Up
  • 0 Option Down
  • F Go to Save menu
The following Settings can be changed;
  1. Keypad ID: 1* to 15
  2. Key Beep: Soft */ Loud/ Disable
  3. Alert Beep: Soft */ Loud/ Disable
  4. Backlight: Automatic */ Always On/ Always Off
  5. IR Receiver: Enable* / Disable
  6. Voice Broadcast: Enable* / Disable
  7. Keypad Tamper: Enable* / Disable
  8. Date Format: DD/MM/YY * etc
  9. Time Format: 12 Hr*/ 24 Hr
  10. LCD Contrast: 0-63 (default 37)
  11. Backlight Off: 0-31 (default 1)
  12. Factory Default: Yes/No*
  13. Save Menu (Yes/No*)
Select the Setting page by pressing the * (forward) or # (previous)  key. Next press the 8 (Up) or 0 (Down) keys to scroll through the options or values. When the option or value has been selected, press F to go to the Save Menu page. Default is NO so press 8 or 0 to select Yes and press F to confirm. The KP04A will reset and apply the new settings.

eg to change the KP04A ID;
The ID is the first menu setting default = 1. Press 8 to increment the ID to 2,3,4 etc. Press F to go to Save. No is  default. Press 8 to go to "Yes" Press F to confirm. KP04A is reset. The new ID is applied after reset.
