To add a secondary touchscreen keypad you can use the Qolsys IQ Remote PowerG. This keypad can connect with the panel through WIFI or by using the PowerG 915 MHz wireless protocol. PowerG will provide a longe-range solution.

You can use the DSC HS2LCDWF9 (preferred) or the WS9LCDWF9 if you want a wireless push-button keypad. The latter keypad has had issues working with the Qolsys IQ Panel 4. It will sometimes learn into the panel fine, but then stop working at a later time. If a wireless push-button keypad is needed, be sure to choose the HS2LCDWF9 when possible. A future firmware update may solve these issues and if so, it will be noted in the firmware release notes.
If you plan to use a DSC PG9WLSHW8 or DSC PGHRDW8, then you can also use hardwired DSC keypads with the system. These keypads will wire to the converter module, then communicate wirelessly between the converter module and the IQ Panel 4. The keypads that are compatible to be used this way are the HS2LCD, HS2ICN, HS2LCDP, and HS2ICNP. The HS2LCDP and the HS2ICNP both support the use of proximity tags. This adds another layer of arming and disarming ease. The user simply swipes the tiny proximity tag across the keypad to arm or disarm the system. No need to memorize a user code.
