Dahua ARK50C-R Wired Alarm Keypad

The Dahua ARK50C-R Wired Alarm Keypad provides convenient local control and clear system information for compatible Dahua wired alarm installations. Its 128 × 64 LCD, dedicated function buttons and five status indicators help users quickly check zones, identify faults and manage common alarm functions.

System Control and Visibility

The keypad brings essential alarm functions together in one accessible interface. Number and navigation keys are supported by dedicated Menu, Arm, Bypass, Fire, Medical and Enter buttons, making routine operation and system checks straightforward for authorised users.

The search functions provide useful information for both users and technicians, including zone conditions, faults, program version and communication details.

Compatibility and Installation

The ARK50C-R connects to a compatible Dahua wired alarm controller using RS-485. It is not a direct replacement for a wireless AirShield keypad, so the alarm controller model, system design and wiring requirements should be confirmed before ordering.
