Cp8L Rkp Compatible With Cpx?

[darrindaly]

Hi,

 

I had a CP8L alarm previously installed in my house.  The control panel became faulty so I decided to replace it with a more adaptable CPX control panel.  I had read that the RKPs for the CP8L were compatible wth the CPX control panel.  However, when I connect up one of the RKPs to the new CPX control panel it simply shows a back light and nothing else.

The RKPs were working fine with the CP8L and I have connected both of them directly to the CPX with a short cable (with nothing else connected and with all devices connected), to no avail.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Darrn

I don't think they are compatible as the cpx keypad supports prox.
