1 INTRODUCTION

The XP-KIT is a programming starter kit capable of programming any of Aiphone‟s -XP series reader­equipped door stations (Such as AX-DV-XP, AX-DVF-XP, etc.). These door stations are capable of
acting as stand-alone access control card readers, operating completely independent of 3rd party host
controllers, PC interfaces, etc. In this guide you will find all the information necessary to perform basic
system operations, as well as learning basic and advanced programming functionality.

Note: This manual covers programming and operations for the -XP series reader only. For station­specific mounting and installation information, please consult the documentation included with your
chosen -XP series door station.

1.1 READER LED AND TONE DEFINITIONS –

All programming and operations of the -XP series reader provide audible and visual feedback to
indicate to the user the functional status and current operations of the reader. Use the following key to
determine the meaning of each LED / Tone type:

LED 1 (Yellow)
LED 2 (Green)
LED 3 (Red)
LED 4 (Red)

(Qty. 10 Included)

XP-KIT – Programming Starter Kit (containing):

XC5T/9 Blank User Cards (Qty. 10)
XRP3 Handheld Remote Programmer (Qty. 1)
XMMC3/9 Master card pack – (Qty. 1)

Note: XRP3 Remote Programmers and XC5T/9
Blank Proximity Cards may be ordered individually, as
necessary, to suit customer requirements. The
XMMC3/9 Master Card Pack, however, is included

2 INITIALIZATION

Your Aiphone -XP series proximity-equipped station has been shipped from the factory in „Sleep mode‟.
Before it can be operated or programmed in any way it must first be initialized to recognize the XRP3
remote programmer and master card set provided in your XP-KIT starter kit. The following steps
should be carefully followed to ensure proper setup of the reader.

2.1 ASSIGNING THE XRP3 REMOTE PROGRAMMER –

1

When powered on
for the first time, the

reader is in „Sleep

mode‟.

5

The reader has now been returned
to „Sleep mode‟, awaiting
configuration of the master cards.

Cycle power (turn off / on) at this
time to complete the process.

2

Present and remove
the XRP3 Remote
Programmer.

Note: Be sure that the LEDs lit on the -XP series card reader
match those shown in step (4) before proceeding. If they do not

match, simply repeat the presenting of the XRP3 and key entry of the
sleep mode command as shown in step (4). Be sure that you see not
only LED1 (yellow) flashing while the XRP3 is held against the reader
but also that you hear audible confirmation of both the presenting of
the keypad in addition to each key press.

2 INITIALIZATION (continued)

2.1 ASSIGNING THE PROGRAM MASTER CARD –

After cycling power in step 1, the reader should be in sleep mode, ready to have the Program master
card assigned.

(Reader is in „User
Sleep‟ mode)

2

P

Present the „P‟ (Program
Master) card.

3

The Program master card is now assigned,
and the system is in „Standby‟. (Note: Write
the 9-digit ID from the back of the Program
master onto your Log Sheet, Pg 22)

Both the XRP3 and the Program master card should now be properly assigned to the -XP series
reader. Please continue to section 2.2 and follow the instructions to associate the remaining master
cards.

2.3 ASSIGNING THE ADDITIONAL MASTER FUNCTION CARDS –
Once the Program master has been assigned, additional master function cards can be

designated (for a basic description of master card functions, see Pg. 4). These cards will be
usable for basic programming and operation of the -XP reader.

Standby mode, ready for
active use!

Congratulations! Your Aiphone -XP series reader is now ready for active use! Be sure to log the 9-digit
ID numbers of the XRP3 remote programmer and each master card on the provided Log Sheet, page 22.

NOTE: If you have multiple Aiphone -XP series reader-equipped door stations, please repeat this
Initialization section for each of them. Master cards and XRP3 programmers can be shared
between as many door stations as desired.

3 BASIC OPERATIONS

3.1 GENERAL OPERATION & PROGRAMMING TIPS:

When „presenting‟ credentials to the reader, a

successful „read‟ should be indicated by visual

lighting of LED1 (Yellow) and an audible beep
(dependant upon function). Try not to block the
buzzer opening, otherwise it may be difficult to
hear audible notifications.

When performing operations with the XRP3 Remote Programmer, be sure to hold the XRP3 against
the reader, and that LED 1 (Yellow) is flashing. Each keypress will be confirmed by an audible
„beep‟.

(wait 1 second)

1 2 3

*

For all operations and programming steps, a
one (1) second delay should be given
between the presentation of cards or
credentials. A lesser delay will not give an
audible confirmation. If an audible
confirmation is not heard, simply pause and
present the card or credentials again.

Buzzer

All credentials (including Master cards and the XRP3
Remote Programmer) have a unique 9-digit ID number
printed on them. These should be carefully logged and
stored in a safe location should the need ever arise to

XRP3

remove a user or function card. A blank Log Sheet
template is included (see Pg. 22) to facilitate this. Be
sure to document the credential‟s access level, as well
as additional notes (Master status, access level, etc.).

In some instances (especially multi-door applications), it may be practical to pre-program the
Master cards and Remote Programmer prior to physical installation of the AX-DVF-XP / AX-DV­XP. Programming and configuration are done independently for each reader in the system.
Always be sure to follow the „Getting Started‟ guide (section 6 of this manual) when initially
setting up a new door station with reader.

3 BASIC OPERATIONS (continued)

If an error occurs ( ) during any operation or
step of a programming function, the reader will
revert to „Standby‟ mode.

If an error occurs while programming, begin that
programming function from the first step
(standby).

If an error occurs during normal operation, verify
that the reader is in the expected mode
(standby, night lock, etc.), and that the

(an error occurred!)

System returns to

„Standby‟ mode; begin

programming function or

operation again

credentials are assigned the appropriate access
level. (See Section 5.3 under Advanced
Programming)

3.2 OPERATING THE DOOR RELEASE

3.2.1 With already programmed user credentials –

When in normal standby mode, any normal user credential (Level 1) or special user credential (Level 2)
can operate the -XP reader‟s door release (as shown). For information on adding credentials to the
reader‟s memory, see Section 4.1 under Basic Programming.

1

(Reader is in „Standby‟)

2

Present a Level 1 or
Level 2 user credential.

(Door release timer

duration, default 3 sec.)

LED2 (green) will remain lit
for the duration of the door
release closure.

3

After the door release timer
completes, the reader will
return to „Standby‟.

Note: If the credential(s) being presented are not present in the reader‟s memory, an error tone ( )
will sound, and the system will be returned to standby mode.

3.2.2 With the XRP3 Remote Programmer –

Once associated with the -XP reader, XRP3 Remote Programmer is capable of operating the reader‟s
door release contact using the following method.

1

After the door release timer
completes, the reader will
return to „Standby.‟

Note: When this action is executed, the XRP3 is treated as a Level 2 (Special user) credential; access
will be granted whether the system is in normal standby or Night Lock standby.
