Proximity Reader with Keypad
Installation Guide
1. INTRODUCTION
The RDK-4 is a proximity reader with
keypad, compatible with the AXS-100
access control system.
The system is designed to limit access
to restricted areas, while permitting
authorized people to enter. The RDK-4
can be programmed by the installer to
offer one of three security levels for
opening the door:
1. Valid tag only.
2. Valid tag and user PIN (Personal
Identification Number) code.
3. Password only.
Figure 1 - RDK-4
It is recommended to install the RDK-4 on a wall outside the
protected area, and the AXS-100 control unit inside the protected
area.
Proximity access cards or tags are used as keys to open doors.
When presented to an RDK-4, the access card or tag emit a coded
RF signal that is read by the proximity reader. The reader prompts
the user for a 4-digit PIN code (applicable to security level 2). When
the correct PIN code is typed, the control unit verifies that the card
is valid and makes the decision as to whether it should energize an
output relay that releases the lock. All activity involving the proximity
readers is recorded and logged by the AXS-100.
For information about the AXS-100 system, refer to the AXS-100
user’s guide and installation instructions.

3. MOUNTING
Mount the proximity reader outside the door on the wall or door
frame. The RDK-4 comes with a 1m (3 ft) cable.
Note: When installing more than one RDK-4, the distance
between the readers should be at least 60 cm (2 ft.), to ensure
proper operation.
To mount the proximity reader:
A. Remove the case closure screw.
B. Separate the base from the keypad assembly.
C. Place the base on the installation surface, mark points, drill
the holes and insert plastic anchors, if necessary.
D. Fit the base into the rubber gasket and use the 2 mounting
screws to attach the base and gasket to the selected
surface.
Figure 2 - Base and Gasket
4. WIRING
Each RDK-4 reader is connected to the control unit via a
four-wire cable. The standard cable is color-coded. Use a cable
with the same colors to avoid mistakes in connection. Connect
each proximity reader to the reader sections on the AXS-100
connector blocks. See diagram for color-coding.

5. SECURITY LEVEL SELECTION
The RDK-4 can be programmed by the installer to offer one of
three security levels, as shown in the next table.
No.
Security level

1
The door is unlocked
by presentation of a
valid tag/card only.
No jumper is not installed .
2
Door is unlocked by
presentation of a valid
tag/card followed by
user PIN code
keying.
Select this security level by either
of the following actions:
A. Install jumper in the RDK-4.
B. Connect shorting wire
between D.POS & GND
terminals in the RDK-4 (see
fig. 4).
C. Set To/From time in minutes,
in AXS-100 registers 8 & 9
(for Reader 1) or registers 10
& 11 (for Reader 2), to
determine the period during
which the RDK-4 will switch
from security level 1 (tag
only) to security level 2 (tag +
PIN). For example, if you
want that the security level 2
will be valid from 12 o’clock
(720 min.) to 13 o’clock (780
min.), set AXS-100 register 8
to 720 and register 9 to 780.
For details, refer to AXS-100
User Guide par. 3.2.7.

6. USING THE RDK 4
To enroll an access card refer to the AXS-100 User Manual section
3.3.1 Add Keys. The PIN code of each card is automatically defined
by the AXS-100. In order to receive the PIN codes for access cards,
please refer to the AXS-100 User Manual section 5.2.1 Setup Flags.
To enter a door, present a valid tag to the RDK-4. If your RDK-4 is
programmed to operate by tag and user’s PIN code, present the tag
and then enter the PIN code within 5 seconds.
When presented to an RDK-4, the access card or tag emits a coded
RF signal that is read by the proximity reader. The reader prompts
the user for a 4-digit PIN code by blinking the yellow light. If no PIN
code is typed within 10 seconds, or a wrong PIN code is typed, the
red LED will light up.
A delay of more than 5 seconds, between presenting a tag and
starting to key user PIN code, or between any two digits, cancels the
operation.
The normal functions of the LEDs are summarized in the following
table.
LED
Function
Green
Indicates that a valid tag was presented and
the output relay was activated.
Red
Indicates that an invalid tag was presented or
an invalid PIN was entered.
Yellow
Remains lit to indicate that power is on. In
security level 2, blinks after the tag is
accepted, to prompt the user for PIN.
Job Control
There is an option that when a valid exit occurs, the exit will be
reported (Time & Attendance exit), if the reader is defined in EXIT
mode (see AXS-100 user guide, section 4). To implement this option,
ther are 2 possibilities:
1. Before opening the door, press the “” key in the RDK-4.
2. Before opening the door, press the RTE switch (see fig. 5).
