I'm not a pro, but this system looks ancient and most vendors probably do not even sell this system anymore. Hang in there and one of our alarm guru's should chime in.

Optex quit manufacturing control panels several years ago. I wouldn't by something obsolete. Look at Honeywell/Ademco, GE, DSC or others (in that order if you want my opinion).

If you are just trying to get a replacement keypad for an existing Optex-Morse system, really the online auction sites are your only game in town.

As has been mentioned, this is a long out of production system, and your needs might be better met by updating to a modern system.
