VXS-10 User Guide

Note: While in any one of the programming modes, the VXS-10 will not operate the EMS.

1. Introduction

Thank you for choosing the VisAccess VXS-10. We are confident that this product will serve your needs for years to come.

The VisAccess VXS-10 is an electronic access control solution for a single access point, such as a main door in an apartment building or individual office doors. The controller relay activates a lock or electromagnetic strike (EMS), when a valid proximity key (tag) is presented to the reader located outside the protected area.

The use of a proximity (non-contact) key makes the installation of the VXS-10 system an attractive possibility in harsh environments and in places with poor lighting conditions. The proximity keys are totally sealed and wear resistant. The lock reads the key’s ID, whenever the key is presented close to the reader.

The VXS-10 proximity controller is composed of a three-digit display, three visual indicators (LED) and four buttons. An internal proximity reader located in the upper right corner of the panel allows fast and easy programming of access keys. The buttons are used for entering the password and for programming the unit. The VXS-10 has a memory capacity of 300 keys. Adding keys simply involves presenting new keys to the proximity reader while in the ADD mode. The user can delete keys in the DELETE mode by presenting them to the reader or, if a key is unavailable, by typing in its number (the same one that appears when adding the key). Additional special features are also programmable from the control panel.

2. User Programming

2.1. Entering The Programming Menu

Note: Inactivity for more than 10 seconds will cause VXS-10 to exit the programming menu.

The VXS-10 recognizes one master key and one password. The master key will NOT open the lock. To use the master key for entering the programming menu, press the “MODE” button and then present the master key next to the external or internal reader for 2 seconds. The reason for the 2 seconds delay is to prevent inadvertent activation of the programming menu. The master key will enable the user to select the programming menu and add or delete keys. For setup functions such as “password”, “master key”, “unlock time” or “erase all keys” an additional four-step password is needed. Each step may involve pressing any one of the four keys or a combination of two keys. Altogether, there are 10,000 passwords possible (see “2.8. Setting Password”). The master key is also used to confirm changes made to parameters.

The VXS-10 is shipped from the factory with the following default password:

2.2. Selecting The Programming Mode

The VXS-10 recognizes 6 programming modes:

• Adding User Keys

• Deleting User Keys

• Erasing All User Keys

• Setting Unlock Time

• Setting Password

• Setting Master Key

To select the programming mode, press the “MODE” button and present the master key to the reader until the green light (ADD light) starts flashing for at least 2 seconds. Press the “MODE” button to choose between Add, Delete and Special Operations. Adding User Keys is possible when the ADD light is ON. Deleting User Keys is possible when the DELETE light is ON. Set-up functions are changed when the SPECIAL light is ON. For set-up functions, enter the user’s password and select the desired option with the “MODE” button. Erase All User Keys - “Er” will be displayed. Set Unlock Time - “UL” will be displayed. Set Master Key - “S0” will be displayed. Set Password - “PP” will be displayed.

2.3. Adding User Keys Note: It is recommended to keep a list of key-holder names and keys serial numbers, in order

to be able to delete stolen or lost keys.

• To select the ADD mode press the “MODE” button and present the master key to the reader

until the ADD LED starts flashing, indicating that the VXS-10 is ready to add a key.

• Once you present a key to the internal reader, the key will be added and its number will be

displayed for a few seconds.

• Write down the number and the key holder’s name for future reference.

• After a few seconds the green LED will flash indicating that the system is ready for adding

the next key.

• Press the “MODE” button for the next programming mode or simply wait 5 seconds for the

system to time out and revert to normal operation.

2.4. Deleting User Keys

To select the DELETE mode press the “MODE” button and present the master key to the reader until the “ADD” LED starts flashing, then press “MODE” again. The DELETE light will start flashing to indicate that the system is ready to delete a key. Deleting keys can be accomplished in two ways:

• If you have the key to be deleted, present it to the reader. The key number will be displayed for a

few seconds and then the numeric display will blank to indicate readiness for the next operation.

• To delete a missing key, press the “100”,“10” and “1” buttons until you reach the key number

you wish to delete.

For example, to indicate the number 143, press the “100” button once, then press the “10” button four times then press the “1” button 3 times. Once the number is set, present the master key or press the “MODE” button to acknowledge the operation. Hold the master key until the key number disappears from the numeric display and

the red LED is ON. The red LED will start blinking again to indicate that the system is ready for

deleting the next key. Press the “MODE” button for the next programming mode or simply wait 5 seconds for the system to time out and revert to normal operation.

2.5. Erasing ALL User Keys

• To select the ERASE ALL mode press the “MODE” button and present the master key to the

reader until the ADD light starts blinking.

• Press “MODE” twice until the “SPECIAL” LED goes ON.

• Type the 4 level password and verify that the display shows “Er”.

• To make sure that this function is not easily executed, you will have to present the master key

again until the yellow and green LEDs are ON. This function does NOT erase the master key.

• Press the “MODE” button for the next programming mode or simply wait 5 seconds for the

system to time out and revert to normal operation.

2.6. Setting the Unlock Time

• To select the unlock time setting mode, press the “MODE” button and present the master key

to the reader until the ADD LED starts flashing.

• Press “MODE” twice until the “SPECIAL” LED lights. Type the 4 level password and verify

that the display shows “Er”.

• Press “MODE” a few times until the display shows “UL”.

• Press the F2 (10) and F3 (1) keys to set unlock time in seconds, between 1-99 seconds.

For example: to select 35 seconds press the “10” button three times then press the “1” button 5 times.

• The display will show the number of seconds.

• Present master key until the green and yellow LEDs light or press the “MODE” button to

conclude the operation.

• Press “MODE” again for the next programming modes or simply wait 5 seconds for the

system to time out and revert to normal operation.

2.7. Changing The Master Key Note: The VXS-10 can have only one master key.
