A SLEEK ACCESS

1

The k-Kadex is the latest slave terminal from FingerTec, designed exclusively for card and
password access. The k-Kadex reads and records users’ information such as users ID, password
and card information and directly transmits the information to a master terminal for verification
via Wiegand 26-bit output. It is compulsory for the master terminal to have a Wiegand 26-bit
input port to receive signals from the k-Kadex.

Note: Please read the instructions carefully before installing the k-Kadex.

The k-Kadex has one wire attached to it. For a neat installation, you need to conceal this wire
properly.

Note: There are 2

small hooks inside
the back piece.

main piece of the k-Kadex securely in place.

Verification • Card

5

Wave a card at the card induction area to scan
the card. The k-Kadex captures the card informa­tion and transmits it to the master terminal for
verification. Make sure that the k-Kadex is in its
standby mode, where the LED light is showing
red before you start using the terminal.

1

Make sure that you have enrolled the
user/card into the master terminal.

2

Wave the card at the card induction area. The
LED light will turn green and it will submit the
card information to the master terminal for
verification.
