WARNING - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

Note to Installers

This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your responsibility to bring each item in this warning to
the attention of the users of this system.

System Failures

This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances, however, involving fire, burglary, or other types of
emergencies where it may not provide protection. Any access control system of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to operate as
expected for a variety of reasons. Some but not all of these reasons may be:

• Inadequate Installation

An access control system must be installed properly in order to provide adequate protection. Every installation should be evaluated by a security
professional to ensure that all access points and areas are covered. Locks and latches on windows and doors must be secure and operate as intended.
Windows, doors, walls, ceilings and other building materials must be of sufficient strength and construction to provide the level of protection expected.
A reevaluation must be done during and after any construction activity.

• Criminal Knowledge

This system contains security features which were known to be effective at the time of manufacture. It is possible for persons with criminal intent to
develop techniques which reduce the effectiveness of these features. It is important that an access control system be reviewed periodically to ensure
that its features remain effective and that it be updated or replaced if it is found that it does not provide the protection expected.

• Access by Intruders

Intruders may enter through an unprotected access point, circumvent a sensing device, evade detection by moving through an area of insufficient
coverage, disconnect a warning device, or interfere with or prevent the proper operation of the system.

• Power Failure

Control units, readers, exit detectors and many other security devices require an adequate power supply for proper operation. If a device operates from
batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be charged, in good condition and installed correctly. If a
device operates only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions
of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as an access control system. After a power
interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended.

• Motion Detectors - Request to Exit

Motion detectors can only detect motion within the designated areas as shown in their respective installation instructions. Motion detectors do not
provide volumetric area protection. They have multiple beams of detection and motion can only be detected in unobstructed areas covered by these
beams. They cannot detect motion which occurs behind walls, ceilings, floor, closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors or windows. Any type of
tampering whether intentional or unintentional such as masking, painting, or spraying of any material on the lenses, mirrors, windows or any other part
of the detection system will impair its proper operation. Passive infrared motion detectors operate by sensing changes in temperature. However their
effectiveness can be reduced when the ambient temperature rises near or above body temperature or if there are intentional or unintentional sources of
heat in or near the detection area. Some of these heat sources could be heaters, radiators, stoves, barbeques, fireplaces, sunlight, steam vents, lighting
and so on.

• Component Failure

Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a
component.

• Inadequate Testing

Most problems that would prevent a system from operating as intended can be found by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should
be tested weekly and immediately after a break-in, an attempted break-in, a fire, a storm, an earthquake, an accident, or any kind of construction activity
inside or outside the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational
devices that are part of the system.

4 - Installing the KTES

Important: Make sure that the local telephone company has been notified that you will be installing communication

equipment.

4.1 Preparing to Install the KTES

A visual inspection should be made when unpacking the KTES. Any missing item/part or damaged component
should be reported immediately.

Stay away from electrical or communication devices

The KTES has been designed to be mounted indoor or outdoor. The cabinet is large enough to accommodate the
backup battery and the necessary wiring connections for most applications. Four (4) EMT (Electrical Metallic
Tubing) conduit knockouts (1.9 cm (0.75 in)) are provided. The location should be easily accessible for servicing
the equipment. The KTES must be located at a minimum distance of 2 m (6 ft) from any high voltage equipment or
wiring and from electrical equipment susceptible of generating electrical interference and at a minimum of 8 m (25
ft) from any transmitting equipment.

4.2 Installation

STEP 1: Unpacking the KTES

Check that the following parts are in your KTES package when you unpack it:

• Kantech Telephone Entry System (KTES)

• EntraPass software CD-ROM, version 4.02 or higher

• Installation Manual, English and French version

• Programming Manual, English and French version

Any missing item/part or damaged component should be reported immediately.

Note 1: The 12 VDC backup battery and the ground clamp are not included.

Note 2: Make sure you have adequate sealant (not included).

STEP 2: Applying Sealant on the Back of the

KTES

Sealant must be applied on each of the four mounting holes
when the KTES is installed outside in order to avoid water
infiltration. Also, apply sealant around any knockout that will
be removed.

Important: Be careful not to apply sealant on the four (4)

draining holes at the bottom of the KTES.

20

DN1769-1809

Figure 11: Surface Mount Installation

Kantech Telephone Entry System Installation Manual

STEP 3: Mounting

It is recommended that you mount the KTES so that the
bottom of the enclosure is not higher than 117 cm (46 in.)
from the floor. If you install it in a location where there are
extremely low temperatures, the outdoor installation might
require an optional heater kit in order to meet the
environmental conditions.

Caution: Make sure the area stays clear of any objects

below the KTES that could interfere with its daily use.

DN1769-1809

21

STEP 4: Connecting the Door Locking Device (DC Powered)

Connecting the Door Lock Device to LK+ and
LK-

Check for Local “magnetic lock” Regulations

The door locking device output is controlled according to
the end-user programmed parameters for allowing
access to or unlocking doors according to schedules and
access levels. The door locking device output can
operate DC powered locking devices such as an
electromechanical strike and can be configured to
operate fail-safe or fail-secure (normal or reverse action).

Note: Use 1 K ohm EOL (End-of-Line resistor) between LK+ and LK- terminals if not used.

STEP 5: Connecting the Door Lock Device with an External Power Supply

Use one of the three relay terminals available to connect the
door locking device and the external power supply.

STEP 6: Hooking Up Inputs

Connect Devices to Inputs 1 to 4

Note: Onboard inputs can be defined with: none, single or double EOL (End-of-Line) resistor(s) according to your

settings with the VUI or with EntraPass.

22

DN1769-1809

Kantech Telephone Entry System Installation Manual

Resistors for all Inputs 5.6K Ohms (EOL or DEOL) (Optional)

The KTES has an on-board capability of monitoring 4 input points. Each onboard input is supervised with or
without end-of-line resistors (5.6K ohm). The maximum distance of one line is 600 m (2,000 ft) with AWG #22.
Inputs 1-2 are automatically assigned. The door contact is assigned to input 1 and the postal lock is assigned for
input 2. There is no obligation to follow these rules but this standard convention facilitates servicing.

DRY (without EOL resistor): In a simple NC dry contact configuration, the secure state is given when a short is
detected. The alarm state is given when the input is open. If the alarm switch is programmed as NO device, the

alarm state will be given when the input is shorted.

EOL (with EOL resistor): The secure state is given when a single resistor is detected. The alarm state is given

when the input is open or short.

DEOL (Double EOL Resistor): For NC device only, in a DEOL configuration, the secure state is given when a
single resistor is detected. The alarm state is given when two resistors in series are detected. The trouble state is
given when the input is shorted. The tamper state is given when the input is left open.

STEP 7: Connecting an External Controller

The distance between the reader and the KTES varies by reader type. Consult the installation manual for details.

Important: When you want the external controller to power the reader, the jumper JP9 must be put on external

(EXT) since the external controller will supply the +12 VDC to the reader connected on the READER 1
terminals.

DN1769-1809

23

STEP 8: Connecting a 3rd Party Controller

The +V terminal voltage level is set by jumper JP9 (5V, 12V or EXT).

STEP 9: Connecting the Telephone Line

Connect the TIP (green) and RING (red) from the Phone Line to the TIP and RING terminals.

Note: The (T-1 and R-1) terminals can be connected to the local telephone.

STEP 10: Connecting the Telephone Line with the Ferrite (KTES-AUS Model for

Australia and New Zealand only)

Attach the ferrite as close as possible to the TIP and
RING terminals.

Connect the TIP and RING from the Phone Line to the
TIP and RING terminals.

Tie wrap the cable directly behind the ferrite.

Note: The (T-1 and R-1) terminals can be connected to

the local telephone.

STEP 11: Connecting the RS-485 (optional)

24

DN1769-1809

Kantech Telephone Entry System Installation Manual

STEP 12: Connecting Multiple KTES on the Same Telephone Line (optional)

It is very important to take into consideration that a maximum of 305 m (1000 ft) should be used between the first
KTES and the last KTES, or in total.

STEP 13: Connect the KTES to Earth Ground

Since the KTES uses high performance communication and the telephone line, proper grounding is required to
insure safety and proper operation. An AWG #18 single conductor copper wire must be used to ground each KTES
to good earth ground as per the local electrical code (be careful with ground loops). The ground clamp should be
located below any other ground.

STEP 14: Connect AC Power (North America only)

Power should only be applied to the unit when all connections are completed. Connect the 16VAC terminals to the
secondary of the class 2 transformer 120 VAC 60 Hz IN / 16.5 VAC, 40 VA OUT.

DN1769-1809

25

STEP 15: Connect DC Power (EMEA only)

Power should only be applied to the unit when all connections are completed. Connect the +19VDC- terminals to
the power supply 19 VDC, 3.15 Amps.

STEP 16: Connecting the Backup Battery

The 12 VDC, 7 A/h backup battery provides operation of up to 12 hours.

Note: The battery must be kept indoor if the outdoor temperature drops below -25

C (-13F).

STEP 17: Connecting the Heater Kit for Outdoor Operation (Optional)

Refer to the Heater Kit Install Sheet, DN1856.

26

DN1769-1809

Kantech Telephone Entry System Installation Manual

STEP 18: Connecting the Ethernet Cable (Optional)

Connect the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 port.

• The TXRX (YELLOW) LED is OFF when there is no Ethernet network or the cable is disconnected;

FLASHING when there is network activity; and ON when the network is present

• The 100 (GREEN) LED is ON only when the KTES is connected to a 100 Mb/s (100 Base-T) network.

STEP 19: Powering Up the KTES

Once powered, check the blue heartbeat LED status indicator to determine the status of communication and other
vital parameters. Refer to the troubleshooting section for the patterns. If the main supply is removed, the 12 VDC,
7 A/h backup battery will support normal operation.

Important: The KTES will not start on backup battery alone.

STEP 20: Programming the KTES

If you intend to program the KTES remotely with an access control software like EntraPass, there are some
options that must be done with the VUI before leaving the customer premises.

Enter the KTES programming mode by pressing and holding
the Installer PIN (8888).

Important: For security reasons, keep in mind to change the default installer PIN (8888) after the installation and

configuration are completed and give it to the owner or the maintenance dept of the building. Refer

to the Tenant Menu in the KTES Programming Manual, DN1770.

DN1769-1809

Kantech Telephone Entry System Installation Manual

9 - Maintenance Recommendations

Important: Only a technician should perform the following maintenance recommendations.

The KTES includes a lithium battery (see Figure 8 Kantech Telephone Entry System PCB View on page 15). This
battery cannot be replaced in the field. If the lithium battery stops working, return the circuit board to Kantech. Do
not crush, puncture, open, disassemble or otherwise mechanically interfere with the battery. Do not try to recharge
the battery. If you need to dispose of the circuit board, wrap it in non-conductive tape.

Regarding the recommended backup battery 12 VDC / 7 Ah: It is the technician’s responsibility to assure that the
disposal of used batteries is made according to the waste recovery and recycling regulations applicable to the
intended market. Use the recommended battery type ONLY.

Warning: Do not store the batteries in such a way that they come into contact with each other or with any piece of

metal. Explosion or fire may occur. Should fire occur, use only dry chemical fire extinguishers. Do not use
water to put out the fire. Do not heat the batteries. Do not dispose of the batteries or circuit board in a fire.
Do not disassemble the batteries. Do not apply pressure to or deform the batteries. Ensure that the above
precautions are strictly observed by related departments, including, but not limited to, production, sales
and outside contractors.

It is highly recommended to test the KTES by performing the following tests:

1. Bi-annual test for backup battery:
Remove AC power (UL Listed) or DC power (CE Compliant) from the KTES and let it work on backup battery

power for one hour. This test will ensure that in the event of a power failure, the backup battery will be able to
support normal operations. This test should be performed twice a year. Once the test has been performed
successfully, reconnect power to the KTES.

2. Annual test for lithium battery:

Measure voltage when power is totally removed from the KTES (AC or DC and backup battery power). To
ensure maximum operation and to prevent loss of the database, contact your distributor to return the KTES for
maintenance, if the lithium battery voltage measures below 2.5 VDC.
