NXT-1RE/-3RE/-5RE Exit Reader
Installation Guide

P/N: 01250-001 Rev. C
Keri NXT controllers with Mercury firmware now provide an Entrance/Exit door control feature. This Entrance/Exit
feature allows two readers to be wired to one bus on the NXT controller to control entrance and exit through that one door.
Access requests entering through the door use a standard NXT-R Reader (designated as an Entrance Reader). Access
requests exiting through that same door use an NXT-RE Reader (designated as an Exit Reader). Otherwise, all
specifications and wiring information for the two reader types are identical.
NOTE: The Entrance/Exit Door reader feature is currently only available on NXT controllers using the optional, Mercury
Inside firmware. For NXT controllers using standard NXT firmware, a reader configured as an Out-door is not recognized
by the Doors.NET software.

NXT-1RE/-3RE/-5RE Exit Readers
An NXT Exit Reader is wired to a bus the same way a standard NXT Entrance Reader is wired, but both readers are wired
to the same bus. This can be done using two separate reader cables wired into the terminal block at the bus on the
controller, or by splicing the two readers together near the door and running one cable to the controller.
On power up, an Exit Reader’s LED will flash red, then green, then stay at amber.
