Does your v3 Iris keypad do the entrance/exit beeps with increasing frequency? If not, try the below, it's quite amazing. I even have Google mini announcing, "system armed in away mode,please exit the facility in xx seconds" and when you enter it says "please enter your pincode on the keypad within 30 seconds"
Hi Mike, Happy belated thanksgiving. Did the fingerprint for the V3 keypad ever make it into a release yet? Here's my fingerprint data:
- endpointId: 01
- application: 00
- softwareBuild:
- inClusters: 0000,0001,0003,0020,0402,0405,0500,0501,0B05,FC01,FC02
- outClusters: 0003,0019,0501
- model: 1112-S
- manufacturer: iMagic by GreatStar
Not sure if this interests anyone or not but I had a PoE connection with UPS backup to my Iris v3 keypad location so I just wired it in. Anyways works a treat so if anyone is interested it's really as simple as that.

So for the converter, what is the output voltage? The pic is too blurry to tell for sure.
I realize that (4 AA and all), I just didn't want to assume that is what he used. I ask because I happen to have a 5V adapter handy...
Anyway, I got my 2 used iris v3 keypads today. How can I tell if they have the 'new' firmware or not?
I take that back, the battery report says it's 3 volts...
New firmware devices include cluster FC04 in the inClusters list.

OK, both of mine are old firmware then.
Platform 2.1.8 includes the addition of the older device firmware fingerprint as well as implementation of a substitute for the inop beep on the older devices.

Cool. it would definitely be nice if the delay beep works - although not critical in my use.
It's a 48v to 5v PoE converter, I have a big UPS and PoE switch in my comms rack so it all goes back to there. The device itself takes 6v usually with 4 X AA batteries but only needs 3v to function so this works really well.
Ah, how convenient, since I have 5V already wired to the location I want to put these... Could have changed to ti a different converter, obviously, but even nicer that I don't have to.

Are you 100% sure that all of those batteries are in series? Because the v2 keypad and the Centrallite 3400 keypad both run on 3v, not 5.
Yep works fine as the keypads don't need anymore than 3v to run but seem to take 6v. Also check this video about the Iris v2 keypad as its actually how I got the idea.
EDIT: skip to the 4min mark if you want to seem him talk about the battery/voltage.

Yes, I know....and if the person who made this video had read the manual, he would have know that it runs off of one battery. That allows you to remain paired while you change batteries.
But this proves my point. These batteries are in parallel, not in series. They batteries are 3v. That means the device is running off 3v.
I'm not going to put too much stock in this video though. He doesn't even know that you can change the volume with the 2 and 5 keys.
So it is two parallel banks of 2 batteries in series then? Because 1 AA is 1.5v, and there are 4 batteries on the V3...

The iris v3 device isnt a centralite oem product and it uses 4 AA batteries, but it still is 3v none the less.
Yes, series parellel...

That's what I was thinking. Just didn't want you guys to fry your keypads. Those things are pretty rare these days.
it might tolerate 5v for a while but I would worry about it frying it after days and days.

Thanks Ryan. I'll look at it closer before i proceed. I could change out the converter easily enough (or add a resistor). I'm in no hurry to hard wire it, so have time to investigate.
The only manuals I could find online were for the 3400. Since I couldn't find the manual for the v3, I didn't want to assume that it was 3v as well. I know how much people jump on you when you assume anything around here.
