Introduction
The MPC Cobra is a battery-powered manually programmed access control system. Up to 100 individual codes can be programmed right at the keypad. A red and
green LED on the keypad provide visual indication for programming and access
events. Mechanical key override is possible when a 7-pin small-format interchangeable core (not included) is installed in place of the cylinder plug, which
comes standard. Either the plug or the IC core must be installed for the lock to
operate. When the cylinder is removed (using the cylinder control key) the lock
will unlock. Manual key override should only be necessary if the low battery output indications have been ignored. (See also
BATTERY INFORMATION: on page 10).
The design allows for mounting on doors from 1-1/2” to 2” thick. A shim is available to mount the lock to a 1-3/8” door. An exterior gasket (EG option) is available
for application to exterior sides of doors.
