Features

The model 

PRX-2

is designed to be mounted directly to

standard single-gang wall box, and integrates both a
125KHz proximity card reader and keypad into a single-
unit making it ideal for applications requiring an access
credential and/or personal identification number (PIN).

The proximity card reader and keypad of the 

PRX-2

are

both capable of transmitting data in 26-Bit Wiegand
format, making it compatible with any of the Wiegand
equipped Viking entry controllers. The keypad is based
upon cutting-edge, non-mechanical, capacitive
technology, which, unlike membrane keypads, includes no
moving parts prone to early failure. Advanced keypad
enhancements include fully potted circuit board (EWP),
keys with blue LED backlighting, raised key outlines and
pip on the 5-key.

The 

PRX-2

delivers non-contact read ranges up to 6

inches (152 mm), and operates from 5 to 14 VDC.
Mounting is simplified with horizontal and vertical
mounting slots, which allow the reader to be conveniently
adjusted and leveled. Concealing the mounting hardware,
the 

PRX-2

ships with both Black and Ash (Off-White)

covers standard.
