Network
- A live internet connection is required to program and manage
the system.
DC Input
- Input 12-24 VDC power using an 18/2 wire. For high voltage
applications, use the High Voltage Converter (PN: HVC).

Fire Input -
To integrate the fire system into a controller, refer to wiring
diagrams at www.prodatakey.zendesk.com
Programming
- After the controller is connected, access the configuration
software as instructed in the programming manual available at
www.prodatakey.zendesk.com
Reader Compatibility
- Pdk does not require proprietary readers.
Controllers accept a Wiegand input, including biometric readers and
keypads. OSDP readers are supported by using the included jumper (see
OSDP reference guide). Contact pdk support if assistance is needed.
UL 294 Compliance
- All equipment must meet appropriate UL certifications.
For UL-listed installations, all cable runs must be less than 30 meters (98.5’).

What is OSDP
- Open Supervised Device Protocol (OSDP) is an access control
communications standard developed by the Security Industry Association to improve
interoperability among access control and security products. OSDP brings heightened
security and improved functionality. It is more secure than Wiegand and supports AES-128
encryption.
OSDP Wire Specification
- Four-conductor, twisted-pair cable with overall shield is
recommended to remain fully TIA-485 compliant at the maximum supported baud rates
and cable distances.
Note - It’s possible to reuse existing Wiegand wiring for OSDP,
however, using simple stranded cable typical of Wiegand readers generally does not meet
the RS-485 twisted pair recommendations.
OSDP Multi-Drop -
Multi-drop gives you the capability to accommodate many readers by
running one length of four-conductor cable, eliminating the need to run wire for each
reader.
Note
- The maximum number of readers each port can support is four.
Note - Wiegand readers will not work when OSDP jumpers are installed.
