Operating & Installation
Secura Key
9
If the Transponder ID Number is not stored in memory, the door or gate
remains locked and a red light and three rapid beeps indicate that access
is denied. Otherwise the LED is normally off.
NOTE:
If five incorrect passwords are entered, the unit will sound an alarm
and display a red LED for 30 seconds, then return to normal mode.
SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
RK600e Unit Only
Locate on the exterior wall, near the latch side of the controlled door. Height
should be 36” - 48” (check local codes). Use weather gasket (supplied) for
outdoor installations.
RK600e Unit with Optional Auxiliary Reader
Auxiliary Reader - Locate on the exterior wall, near the latch side of the
controlled door. Height should be 36” - 48” (check local codes).
RK600e Unit - Locate inside the secure area. For use as an exit reader,
mount the RK600e Unit on the interior wall at the same relative location as
the Auxiliary Reader but not directly behind it.
For best reading distance,
offset the RK600e Unit and Auxiliary Reader by about 6”.
Otherwise,
the RK600e Unit can be mounted up to 30 cable feet away from the Aux-
iliary Reader.
Metal Surfaces - Effect on Reading Distance
Normally, Radio Key
®
600E will read Key Tags at up to 6”. However, when
the RK600e Unit or optional Auxiliary Reader is mounted directly on a metal
surface, the reading distance decreases slightly. To reduce this effect, in-
stall the Spacer (optional) between the mounting surface and the mounting
plate; this will restore most of the reading distance.
Vehicle Gate Applications
Optional Auxiliary Reader - Locate 8 - 12 feet in front of gate on driver’s
side. A Post Mount Adapter or Flange Mount Adapter is available for post
mounting. Install the optional Spacer between the mounting adapter and
Auxiliary Reader to reduce the effect on reading distance caused by the
metal mounting adapter. Alternatively, the RK600e can be used alone, post
mounted with weather gaskets.
