STEP 1-MOUNTING THE UNIT
Page 3 tells you what tools and instruments you will need to install your unit and presents a parts check
list. Make sure to have all the tools listed. Upon opening the box, check off the items enclosed with
the unit. If any items are missing from your unit, contact American Access Systems immediately.
Mounting the unit to your own pedestal
Your unit comes with a square mounting flange found in the bottom of the box along with four carriage
bolts and four hex nuts. The square mounting flange may be welded to your pedestal and the flange
bolt pattern will align with the back of the unit. Place the unit up to the flange and insert the carriage
bolts from the back side. Secure the unit to the flange by tightening down the hex nuts with a 7/16"
socket.
Mounting the unit to an AAS gooseneck (18-001) or double height (18-003)pedestal
Locate the four carriage bolts and four hex nuts found inside the unit box. Place the unit up to the
pedestal flange and insert the four carriage bolts from the backside. Secure the unit to the pedestal
using the four hex nuts and a 7/16" socket. The extra square mounting flange may be discarded.
Mounting the unit to an AAS diagonal pedestal (18-002)
Locate the four bolts provided with the pedestal. Place the unit up to the pedestal so that the unit hole
pattern aligns with the pre-tapped pedestal bolt holes. Insert the pedestal bolts from the inside of the
unit and tighten down with a 7/16" socket. The extra square mounting flange, four carriage bolts, and
four hex nuts provided inside the unit box may be discarded.

HOOKUP STEPS
(A).
Your DKLP control unit operates on 6 to
14 volts DC. Measure the voltage from the power source to make sure it falls within these tolerances.
Locate the Red and Black wire on the ACU HARNESS and with the power off connect Red to positive
(+) and Black to negative (-).
NOTE: If you are using the optional AAS-12vdc transformer, cut the end connector from the
transformer cable and discard. Using appropriate wire nuts, connect black to black and black/white
to red.
(B).
Connect the device to be controlled to the appropriate control leads of the ACU HARNESS (See
table 1).
(C).
Double Check your connections. When you are sure that everything is hooked up correctly, apply
power to the unit. A BEEP should be heard when you press a key on the keypad.
THE MASTER CODE AND ACCESS CODES
Depending on which model you have, your unit may be programmed with multiple (4 digit)
ACCESS
CODES
, the number of access codes is reflected in the model number (eg. 19-
100
(i) = 100 access
codes.). The
MASTER CODE
is a 4 digit programmable code used for accessing the program mode.
Note: The model number of the unit is located on the inside face of the unit.
SETTING OR RESETTING THE MASTER CODE
To set or reset the master code back to the
factory default of 1 2 5 1
should you ever loose or forget
you master code. To do this follow these steps: (SEE PAGE 7 FOR LOCATION DIAGRAM)
(1). Disconnect power from the unit by pulling the power harness away from the board.
(2). Reconnect power while holding down the PROGRAM/RESET button.
(3). A single keybeep will be heard from the unit indicating that the master has been reset
GOODBEEPS AND ERRORBEEPS
A standard beep will be heard each time a key is pressed. A
“GOODBEEP”
is represented by a series
of quick beeps in succession. An
“ERRORBEEP”
is represented by a single long beep.
THE IDLE MODE
The idle mode is the normal mode of operation. When in this mode the unit sits and waits for data from
the keypad. If a key is pressed from the keypad, you will have approximately 3 seconds between each
keypress before the unit resets.
THE PROGRAM MODE
The program mode is the mode of operation in which you will enter/change your access code. Upon
entry, a GOODBEEP will heard. A GOODBEEP will also be heard when you exit the program mode
unless a keypress timeout occurs in which case you will receive an ERRORBEEP. The program mode
is accessed by entering the “MASTER CODE” from the keypad. If the master code is valid, you will
receive a GOODBEEP from the unit. In this mode you will have approximately 15 seconds between
keypresses. If this time is exceeded, you will receive an ERRORBEEP and the unit will exit the
program mode and return to the idle mode. To exit the program mode at any time, press #.
