Weigand Keypad Installation and Programming
These instructions apply to the following DoorKing Digital Keypads: 1815-050, 1815-051, 1815-052,
1838-120, 1504-120. When used to control entry through an automated vehicular gate system, the
keypad must be mounted a minimum of 10-feet away from the gate and gate operator, or mounted
in such a way that the person using the keypad cannot come into contact with the gate or gate
operator.
These keypads output their data in a 26-bit weigand format and must be connected to an access
controller such as the DKS models 1833, 1835, 1837 or 1838.
WIRING
Use Belden 9418 or 9931 for wiring.

PROGRAMMING
MASTER CODE
1. Press the master code button on the circuit board once.
2. Enter a four-digit code _ _ _ _ then press * (beep).
FACILITY CODE
1. Press * 4 and the four-digit master code _ _ _ _ (beep).
2. Enter a three-digit facility code _ _ _ (000-255) then press * (beep).
3. Press 0 # together to end the programming (beeeeeep).
4. NOTE: If facility codes are not used, skip this step.
ENTRY CODE BOUNDARIES
Entry codes between the boundary limits will weigand out to the controller. Entry codes outside the
boundary limits will not weigand out. Set the boundary limits so that the entry codes do not duplicate any
card or transmitter codes that are programmed into the controller. For example, if transmitter codes
01000 through 02000, and card codes 06000 through07000 are already being used and programmed into
the access controller, you could set the lower boundary to 03000 and the upper boundary to 05000. This
prevents a five-digit entry code from accidentally duplicating a card or transmitter code.
FIVE DIGIT BOUNDARIES
1. Press * 5 and enter the four-digit master code _ _ _ _ (beep).
2. Enter a five-digit lower boundary _ _ _ _ _ then press * (beep).
3. Enter a five-digit upper boundary _ _ _ _ _ then press * (beep).
(To remove five-digit boundaries, enter 0 0 0 0 0 in step 2, and 65405 in step 3.)
4. Press 0 # together to end the programming (beeeeeep).
FOUR DIGIT ENTRY CODE (USING THE # KEY) BOUNDARIES
This programming sequence allows a 5-digit weigand code to mimic 4-digit entry codes programmed into
the telephone entry system. For example, to open the gate from the telephone entry system keypad, the
tenant presses “#-1-2-3-4” (or whatever the 4-digit code is). Using this feature, the tenant would still enter
“#-1-2-3-4” on the weigand keypad to open the gate. The # automatically defaults to “0”, so if “#-1-2-3-4”
is entered on the keypad, the 5-digit code “0-1-2-3-4” is actually sent to the controller. The gate will open
provided that the 5-digit weigand code “0-1-2-3-4” is programmed as a device code.
Use the programming sequence below to set the lower and upper boundary limits of the 4-digit entry
codes that will open the gate. To allow ALL four-digit entry codes to be valid, enter 0 0 0 0 in step 2, and
9 9 9 9 in step 3. To disable the four-digit code feature, enter # # # # in step 2, and # # # # in step 3.
1. Press * 8 and enter the four-digit master code _ _ _ _ (beep).
2. Enter a four-digit lower boundary _ _ _ _ then press * (beep).
3. Enter a four-digit upper boundary _ _ _ _ then press * (beep).
4. Press 0 # together to end the programming (beeeeeep).
