About – KP readers are an all-in-one keypad and a proximity reader. This allows card plus PIN (or code) access control with a single reader. KP readers are compatible with Switch2 and Net2 systems. The KP series keypads are supplied with black bezels only.
Installation – The reader is wired as shown on the control unit label. Be sure to avoid mounting on metal surfaces or near other proximity readers as this will affect the read range. The cable exits centrally from the back of the reader making drilling and mounting easy and accurate.
Operation – A token is read by holding it within close range of the reader. Once a token has been read if the reader has been configured for code/PIN this must then be entered using the keypad. The control unit verifies the information and grants or denies access as appropriate. A red LED light flashes if access is granted, a red LED light flashes if access is denied.
Replacement bezels are available in black and white/gray, and are free of charge to Paxton registered installers from the Paxton Portal.
