AirShield Keypad: arm and disarm with a code or card
The AirShield Keypad is a wireless keypad for your alarm system. Arm and disarm with a personal PIN code or a proximity card, without needing a phone. Ideal at the front door, so that everyone can operate the alarm quickly and individually.
The keypad (Dahua ARK30T-W2(868)) works with the AirShield hub, supports up to 32 users and records who armed or disarmed the system and when. This keeps things clear, even with several users.
Why the AirShield Keypad
PIN code or card
Arm and disarm with your own PIN code or hold an IC/RFID card up to the keypad. Quick and straightforward, also for those who do not use the app.
Up to 32 users, with event log
Give each user their own code or card. The system records who carried out which action, so that you can review the history afterwards.
Encrypted and tamper-resistant
Wireless two-way communication on 868 MHz with AES128 and frequency hopping. A tamper contact gives a warning as soon as someone tries to detach the keypad.
Wireless installation, always up to date
Battery powered, so you can fit the keypad without any chasing or drilling work. Firmware updates run via the cloud, with automatic recovery if an update fails.
