Control Techniques KI-KEYPAD Remote LCD Keypad
The Control Techniques KI-KEYPAD (Manufacturer Part Number: 82400000016000) is a premium, plain-text LCD operator interface accessory engineered for high-performance AC drives. Designed to integrate directly with Unidrive M series industrial controllers, this plain-text keypad supports up to four lines of diagnostic display. It allows machinery operators and commissioning technicians to adjust parameters, view real-time data logs, and resolve drive fault codes in multiple standard languages without requiring connection to a dedicated commissioning PC.

Efficient Diagnostic Fault Tracking and Parameterization
The KI-KEYPAD provides a distinct operational advantage on the production floor by replacing cryptic numeric status messages with clear, descriptive fault text. It features built-in security profiles with PIN protection to prevent unauthorized modifications to critical drive parameters after commissioning. Users can customize the status screen to display up to 10 user-selected operational parameters simultaneously (such as frequency, load, or motor current), scaling and formatting each parameter to match localized system units.
Flexible On-Drive and Remote Enclosure Mounting Options
-
On-Drive Installation: Slots directly into the integrated KI Port on Unidrive M series enclosures, maintaining a secure, vibration-resistant connection with zero cabling overhead.
-
Remote Enclosure Mounting: Can be remote-mounted on an external electrical panel door using a standard, 1-to-1 patch RJ45 connection cable (up to 100 meters). This allows maintenance staff to safely check status diagnostics and command changes without opening high-voltage cabinet sections.
-
Sealed Tactile Controls: Outfitted with robust tactile buttons for start, stop, parameter scrolling, and operational reset commands, making it ideal for dusty or humid manufacturing environments.
