Keypad Options

All Essex Keypads are designed to perform reliably in even the most extreme environmental conditions. Operating temperatures can range from -40°C to +70°C (-40°F to 160°F). The KE-265 is compatible with any of the following Keypad styles/configurations:

KP-34S	KP-5S	KP-26TS
	KP-5SL	KP-26TB	KP-5SI
KP-34B		KP-26TI	KP-5DI

Preparing for Installation

System Components

There are four primary components to be installed:

1.The Keypad should be mounted on the wall adjacent to the door. It should be on the same side as the door strike and about 4 feet above the floor.

2.The Control Module should be mounted inside the building

near a power source. Typically the control module is hidden in a false ceiling or closet.

The control module must be located in an environmentally controlled area where the temperature remains between

–40°C and +49°C (-40° F and 125° F.)

3.The Wiring Cable connects the keypad to the control module. It is important not to locate the cable adjacent to any wiring that carries line voltage. Included with the system is a 15-foot CL2 12 conductor jacketed wiring cable of which only 11 wires are used. If the Control Module must be located further than 15 feet from the Keypad, additional cable may be spliced. The maximum distance between the Keypad and the Control Module must not exceed 1,000 feet (250 feet for an Illuminated 5-Pad). For runs over 200 feet, 18 gauge wire should be used. Under 200 feet, 20 gauge is acceptable.

4.The Electric Strike/Other Locking Device(not included) connects to the KE-265’s Main Relay output via a strike cable. (See Appendix B – Typical Wiring Diagrams. Page 24)
