KeyPad Plus Jeweller is a wireless touch keypad for managing the Ajax system with encrypted contactless cards and key fobs. Designed for indoor installation. Supports “silent alarm” when entering the duress code.
The keypad manages security modes using passwords and cards or key fobs. Indicates the current security mode with a LED light.
The keypad only works with Hub (4G) Jeweller, Hub Plus Jeweller, Hub 2 Jeweller, Superior Hub Hybrid and Hub 2 Plus Jeweller running OS Malevich 2.11 and higher. Connection to Hub (2G) Jeweller and the ocBridge Plus and uartBridge integration modules is not supported.
The keypad operates as part of the Ajax system by connecting via the Jeweller secure radio communication protocol to the hub. The communication range without obstacles is up to 1700 meters. The pre-installed battery life is up to 3.5 years.

Operating principle
KeyPad Plus Jeweller arms and disarms the security of the entire facility or separate groups as well as allows activating the Night Mode. You can control the security modes with KeyPad Plus Jeweller using:
- Codes. The keypad supports general and personal codes, as well as arming without entering a code.
- Cards or key fobs. You can connect Tag key fobs and Pass cards to the system. To quickly and securely identify users, KeyPad Plus Jeweller uses the DESFire® technology. DESFire® is based on the ISO 14443 international standard and combines 128-bit encryption and copy protection.
KeyPad Plus Jeweller supports code types as follows:
- Keypad code — general code set up for the keypad. When used, all events are delivered to Ajax apps on behalf of the keypad.
- User code — personal code set up for a user connected to the hub. When used, all events are delivered to Ajax apps on behalf of the user.
- Keypad access code — set up for a person who is not registered in the system. When used, events are delivered to Ajax apps with a name associated with this code.
- RRU code is an access code for the rapid response units (RRU) activated after the alarm and valid for a specified period. When the code is activated and used, events are delivered to Ajax apps with a title associated with this code.
The number of personal, access, and RRU codes depends on the hub model.
Access codes are not supported by the Hub (2G) Jeweller control panel.
Before entering a code or using Tag/Pass, you should activate (“wake up”) the KeyPad Plus Jeweller by sliding your hand over the touch panel from top to bottom. When it is activated, the button backlight is enabled, and the keypad beeps.
Auto-wake on Delay when Entering function allows automatically activating the keypad when Delay When Entering is set up. This function is supported by KeyPad Plus Jeweller with firmware version 6.60.0.6 or higher and hubs with OS Malevich 2.19 or higher.
The KeyPad Plus Jeweller is equipped with LED indicators that show the current security mode and keypad malfunctions (if any). The security status is displayed only when the keypad is active (the device backlight is on).
You can use the KeyPad Plus Jeweller without ambient lighting as the keypad has a backlight. The pressing of the buttons is accompanied by a sound signal. The backlight brightness and keypad volume are adjustable in the settings. If you do not touch the keypad for 4 seconds, KeyPad Plus Jeweller reduces the backlight brightness, and 8 seconds later goes into power-saving mode and turns off the display.
If the batteries are discharged, the backlight turns on at the minimum level regardless of the settings.
Function button
KeyPad Plus Jeweller has a Function button that operates in 3 modes:
- Off — the button is disabled and nothing happens after it is pressed.
- Alarm — after the Function button is pressed, the system sends an alarm to the security company monitoring station and all users.
-
Mute interconnected fire detectors alarm — after the Function button is pressed, the system mutes the alarm of the Ajax fire detectors. Available only if an Interconnected Fire Detectors Alarm is enabled (Hub → Settings
→ Service → Fire detectors settings)
Duress code
KeyPad Plus Jeweller supports duress code. It allows you to simulate alarm deactivation. The Ajax app and sirens installed at the facility will not give you away in this case, but the security company and other users of the security system will be warned about the incident.
Two-stage arming
KeyPad Plus Jeweller can participate in two-stage arming, but cannot be used as a second-stage device. The two-stage arming process using Tag or Pass is similar to arming using a personal or general code on the keypad.
Event transmission to the monitoring station
The Ajax system can connect to the CMS and transmit events and alarms to the monitoring station of the security company in SurGard (Contact ID), ADEMCO 685, SIA (DC-09), and other proprietary protocol formats. A complete list of supported protocols is available here. The device ID and the number of the loop (zone) can be found in its states.
Connection
KeyPad Plus Jeweller is incompatible with Hub (2G) Jeweller, third-party security central units, and ocBridge Plus and uartBridge integration modules.
Before starting connection
The hub and the device operating at different radio frequencies are incompatible. The radio-frequency range of the device may vary by region. We recommend purchasing and using Ajax devices in the same region. You can check the range of operating radio frequencies with the technical support service.
- Install the Ajax app and create an account. Add a hub and create at least one room.
- Ensure that the hub is on and has Internet access (via Ethernet cable, Wi-Fi, and/or mobile network). This can be done by opening the Ajax app or by looking at the hub logo on the faceplate — it lights white or green if the hub is connected to the network.
- Make sure that the hub is not in armed mode and does not start updates by checking its status in the app.
Only a user or PRO with full admin rights can add a device to the hub.
To connect KeyPad Plus Jeweller
- Open the Ajax app. If your account has access to multiple hubs, select the one to which you want to connect KeyPad Plus Jeweller.
- Go to the Devices
menu and click Add Device. - Name the keypad, scan or enter the QR code (located on the package and under the SmartBracket mount), and select a room.
- Click Add; the countdown will begin.
- Turn on the keypad by holding the power button for 3 seconds. Once connected, KeyPad Plus Jeweller will appear in the hub device list in the app. To connect, locate the keypad at the same protected facility as the system (within the coverage area of the hub radio network range). If the connection fails, try again in 10 seconds.
The keypad only works with one hub. When connected to a new hub, the device stops sending commands to the old hub. Once added to a new hub, KeyPad Plus Jeweller is not removed from the device list of the old hub. This must be done manually through the Ajax app.
KeyPad Plus Jeweller turns off automatically 6 seconds after being turned on if the keypad fails to connect to the hub. Therefore, you do not need to turn off the device to retry the connection.
Updating the statuses of devices in the list depends on the Jeweller settings; the default value is 36 seconds.

Functionality testing
The Ajax system provides several types of tests that help you make sure that installation points of devices are selected correctly.
KeyPad Plus Jeweller functionality tests do not start straight away but after no more than one hub-detector ping period (36 seconds when using the standard hub settings). You can change the ping period of devices in the Jeweller menu of the hub settings.
Tests are available in the device settings menu (Ajax App → Devices
Choosing a location
KeyPad Plus Jeweller is best placed indoors near the entrance. This allows disarming the system before the entry delays have expired, as well as quickly arming the system when leaving the premises.
When holding KeyPad Plus Jeweller in your hands or using it on a table, we cannot guarantee that the touch buttons will work properly.
It is a good practice to install the keypad 1.3 to 1.5 meters above the floor for convenience. Install the keypad on a flat, vertical surface. This allows KeyPad Plus Jeweller to be firmly attached to the surface and to avoid false tamper triggering.
Besides, the placement of the keypad is determined by the distance from the hub or the radio signal range extender, and the presence of obstacles between them that prevent the passage of the radio signal: walls, floors, and other objects.
Be sure to check the Jeweller signal strength at the installation site. If the signal strength is low (a single bar), we cannot guarantee a stable operation of the security system. At the very least, relocate the device as repositioning even by 20 cm can significantly improve the signal reception.
If after moving the device still has a low or unstable signal strength, use a radio signal range extender.
Do not install the keypad:
- In places where parts of clothing (for example, next to the hanger), power cables, or Ethernet wire may obstruct the keypad. This can lead to false triggering of the keypad.
- Inside premises with temperature and humidity outside the permissible limits. This could damage the device.
- In places where KeyPad Plus Jeweller has an unstable or poor signal strength with the hub or radio signal range extender.
- Within 1 meter of a hub or radio signal range extender.
- Close to electrical wiring. This may cause communication interferences.
- Outdoors. This could damage the device.
Installing the keypad
Prior to installing KeyPad Plus Jeweller, be sure to select the optimal location following the requirements of this manual.
- Attach the keypad to the surface with double-sided adhesive tape and carry out signal strength and attenuation tests. If the signal strength is unstable or if one bar is displayed, move the keypad or use the radio signal range extender.
Double-sided adhesive tape may only be used for temporary attachment of the keypad. The device attached with adhesive tape can at any time be detached from the surface and fall, which may lead to failure.
Please note that if the device is attached with adhesive tape, the tamper will not trigger when trying to detach it.
- Check the convenience for code entry using Tag or Pass to manage security modes. If it is inconvenient to manage the security at the selected location, relocate the keypad.
- Remove the keypad from the SmartBracket mounting plate.
- Attach the SmartBracket mounting plate to the surface using the bundled screws. When attaching, use all fixing points. Be sure to fix the perforated corner on the SmartBracket plate so that the tamper responds to a detachment attempt.
- Slide KeyPad Plus Jeweller onto the mounting plate and tighten the mounting screw at the bottom of the body. The screw is needed for more reliable fastening and protection of the keypad from quick dismantling.
- As soon as the keypad is fixed on the SmartBracket, it shall blink once with LED X — this is a signal that the tamper has been triggered. If the LED does not blink after installation on SmartBracket, check the tamper status in the Ajax app, and then make sure the plate is firmly attached.
Maintenance
Check the functioning of your keypad on a regular basis. This can be done once or twice a week. Clean the body from dust, cobwebs, and other contaminants as they emerge. Use a soft dry cloth that is suitable for equipment care.
Do not use substances that contain alcohol, acetone, gasoline or other active solvents to clean the detector. Wipe the touch keypad gently: scratches can reduce the sensitivity of the keypad.
The batteries installed in the keypad provide up to 3.5 years of autonomous operation at default settings. If the battery is low, the system sends appropriate notifications, and the X (Malfunction) indicator smoothly lights up and goes out after each successful code entry.
KeyPad Plus Jeweller can work up to 2 months after the low battery signal. However, we recommend you replace the batteries immediately upon notification. It is advisable to use lithium batteries. They have a large capacity and are less affected by temperatures.
