INTRODUCTION

Linear’s AK-21W is a digital keyless entry system designed for access control 
applications. The keypad is housed in a rugged, die-cast metal enclosure and is 
designed to be mounted in a single-gang electrical box. The die-cast keys have 
bright, easy-to-read yellow graphics.
Up to 480 entry codes, from 1 to 6 digits in length, can be programmed. They can 
activate either, or both, of the relay outputs. The “anti-passback” feature prevents 
using the same code again before the programmed time elapses.
All system indicators and lights are long-lasting, solid-state LEDs. Two indicators 
show the status of the entry system. The left indicator lights red to indicate power, 
then turns green when access is granted. The right indicator lights yellow when 
the keypad is in “lockout” condition (from too many incorrect code entries). The 
keypad’s courtesy light dimly illuminates the keys at all times. The courtesy light 
brightly illuminates the keys for two minutes after any key is pressed. An internal 
sounder beeps when each key is pressed. An internal jumper sets the sounder 
volume high or low.
The 

SENSE

 input can be used two ways. If programmed for “door sense” the 

input is wired to a normally closed switch on the door to detect when the door is 
open or closed. Forced entry or door ajar situations can then be detected. Using 
door sense, the “Auto-relock” feature will prevent “tailgating” by turning off the 
Main Relay output immediately when the door is closed after access has been 
granted. If the 

SENSE

 input is programmed for “inhibit”, the input can be wired 

to a “service” switch or automatic timer that will disable the Main Relay when 
required.
The 

REQUEST-TO-EXIT

 input can be wired to a pushbutton to provide 

codeless activation of Main Relay, Auxiliary Relay, Output #3, or Output #4 
(programmable).
The 

ALARM SHUNT

 output activates when access is granted. This output can 

be wired to shunt alarm contacts on the access door/gate to prevent triggering of 
an alarm when authorized access occurs.
The AK-21W is powered from a 12-24 Volt AC or DC source. Power can be 
obtained from the access device or a separate power supply. The EEPROM 
memory retains all entry codes and programming, even without power. An 
internal jumper is provided to reset the master code. The Main Relay has a 5 Amp 
capacity. The Auxiliary Relay has a 1 Amp capacity. Two solid state outputs, 
capable of switching 100 mA to common, are programmable to signal forced 
entry, door ajar, lockout, alarm circuit shunting, request-to-exit, and keypad active 
conditions.
