DATA SHEET

Keri's MS Series Proximity Readers are designed to blend aesthetics, read range performance, and small
package size with an extremely thin profile into a product that is priced significantly less than competing
proximity readers. The readers are for use exclusively with Keri's revolutionary access control system based on
the PXL-500 Tiger II Controller and were designed by some of the industry's top RF engineers, with many
years of experience in proximity reader design.

The smallest readers in the series are the
The

MicroStar Reader measures just 3.4" long x 1.4" wide x 0.38" thick (86mm x 36mm x 10mm) thick, and is
designed to mount on a metal window or door frame (mullion) or directly on a wall. Read range is up to 4"
(10cm). The
can be mounted on a single gang electrical box or flat on a wall. Read range is up to 6" (15cm) when
mounted at least one inch off metal. If the reader is mounted using a metal electrical junction box with the
thickness of the wall material separating the reader from the box, read range will be reduced.

The

MS-7000 SuperStar™ Reader measures just 8.5” long x 6” wide x 0.83” thick (21.6cm x 15.2cm x

2.1cm), with a read range of up to 14” (35cm). This reader is designed for applications where greater read
range adds to the convenience of the system, such as parking access or physically challenged access.

The readers are attractively designed with a thin profile and modern appearance. The readers are compatible
with all of Keri's proximity card styles as well as the small, extremely robust Keri Key Tag. Additionally, they
can read any Indala ASP Card or Tag if they are to be used in conjunction with a PXL-500 Controller.

MiniStar Reader measures 4.3" long x 3.0" wide x 0.38" thick (109mm x 76mm x 10mm), and
