KT-100

Flash Memory Programming

The KT-100’s firmware program is stored in flash memory
for easy upload from the workstation without changing
memory chips. Security providers will also find the flash
memory saves time by allowing system upgrades from a
PC without having to physically go to every controller.

Trouble Reporting

Constant trouble supervision keeps tabs on the unit’s
power supply and whether a short to ground or open
circuit is affecting the locking device. It also checks all the
equipment for any type of failure or tampering, while a
self-resetting PTC protects the power output against short
circuits and surges.

Shortens Installation Time

Mounts on the secure side of a door, reducing the length
of cable required for installations. Has no dipswitches or
jumpers to set. Includes connections for 2 card readers
(entry/exit), lock device, door contact and request to exit.
Mounting is easy: it can be placed on a single gang box
(flush mount) or on a surface back box specially
designed for it.

Interfaces With An External
Alarm System

Installers can assign registered users permission to arm or
disarm an external alarm system. Using a TCP/IP interface
module, the KT-100 can be connected to a LAN/WAN
network (using Kantech’s EntraPass Corporate Edition
multi-user access control system software).
