Perhaps worth mentioning that keypad 1 is the main one by the main entry/exit door & as such is the one used for arming/disarming to/from away mode. This was the first KP installed, is very close to the master panel (about 4 - 5 metre cable run) and is using good quality foil screened cable that does not travel close to any obvious source of interference.
Even back when that was first installed, and was the only keypad in the system, I did see an occasional problem with the LCD just going completely blank, and for that reason alone, my hourly response includes a "reset Keypad 1" which is the activity you can see in that snip from the bus monitor...
The other possibly slightly uncommon activity related to this keypad is that I have an ON response for a nearby PIR that turns the LCD backlight on, as I found that I could not read the LCD, even in broad daylight, without the backlight, and having seen a few occurrences of the aforementioned blank LCD problem, I was minded to keep an eye on it every time I walked past...
