Chapter 3 - Connecting and Installing Your Impulse
3-7
C. Connecting an IDC Keypad
Two versions of IDC keypads can be used with the
Impulse drive. The FP100 works only with the
Impulse, while the FP220 can be used with the Impulse
as well as IDC’s Smart Drives (see keypad-specific
information below).
The COM PORT on the front panel of the Impulse is
used for connecting either version of keypad.
Power is applied to either version of keypad when
power is connected to the Impulse.
Using a Keypad with Impulse RS232C
FP100 Keypad
Connect the FP100 Keypad to the Impulse with the
cable supplied with the keypad.
FP220 Keypad (Version 3.0 or higher)
Only FP220 Keypad versions 3.0 and higher will work
with the Impulse drive.
To use an FP220 keypad with your Impulse, you must
set DIP-switch #3 to the ON position and switch #s 1,
2, and 4 to OFF.
The FP220 uses the same keypad cable as the FP100.

Impulse RS485 requires either the FP100-RS485 or
FP220-RS485 keypad.
On the FP220-RS485 keypad only, set DIP switches as
described above. Both FP100-RS485 and FP220-
RS485 keypad are connected as follows:
1. Connect the keypad cable to the keypad and to the
Impulse.
2. Connect the keypad power supply cable to the
keypad as shown in the illustration.
3. Plug in the AC adapter.
