access control reader. The KWA does not communicate with microcontrollers, or contribute to the determination of access privileges.

Connections

The keyboard and system PC connections are made through PS/2-style 6-pin mini-DIN connectors, keyed for correct installation. The KWA 12VDC power plug is keyed so as to require proper ± conductor orientation. The power cable is permanently terminated at the AC power supply.
