• On-site Programming: All features are programmed directly from the keypad, eliminating the need for external programmers.
• Mounting: Mounts to a standard single-gang back box (surface-mount back box included).
• Tamper Output: N.C. Dry contact, 50mA@24VDC maximum.
• Mantrap Feature: For protected areas with two doors, this feature ensures only one door is open at a time.
• Memory: EEPROM Memory protects programmed information during power loss.
• Access Modes: Four programmable access modes for all three outputs: card only, code only, card and common user code, card and unique user code.

3. Setup and Installation

Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance and security of the SK-1123-SPQ keypad. It is recommended that installation be performed by a qualified technician.

3.1 Mounting

1. Select a suitable outdoor location that is protected from direct impact and allows for clear access.
2. The keypad is designed to mount to a standard single-gang back box. A surface-mount back box is included for convenience.
3. Secure the back box to the wall using appropriate fasteners.
4. Route necessary wiring through the back box opening.
5. Attach the keypad to the back box, ensuring a secure and weatherproof seal.

3.2 Wiring

Connect the keypad to the power supply and other access control components according to the wiring diagram provided in the full product manual (not included here). Key connections include:

• Power Input: 12~24 VDC/VAC.
• Relay Outputs: Output #1 (Form C, 1A@30VDC), Output #2 (Form C, 1A@30VDC), Key Active (100mA@24VDC), Duress (100mA@24VDC), Interlock (100mA@24VDC), Tamper (50mA@24VDC).
• Inputs: Egress (N.O. Ground), Door Inhibit (N.O. Ground), Door Sensor (N.C. Ground).

3.3 Initial Programming

Upon initial power-up, it is recommended to set the Super User Code and configure basic access parameters. Refer to the full product manual for detailed programming steps.

4. Operating Instructions

The SK-1123-SPQ offers flexible access control methods.

4.1 Access Modes

The keypad supports four programmable access modes:

• Card Only: Access granted by presenting a valid proximity card.
• Code Only: Access granted by entering a valid user code.
• Card and Common User Code: Requires both a valid card and a shared user code.
• Card and Unique User Code: Requires a valid card and a unique user code assigned to that card.

4.2 User Code Entry

To gain access using a code, enter your assigned 4-8 digit code on the keypad. The keypad backlight will illuminate during entry.

4.3 Proximity Card Usage

For proximity card access, present your valid 125kHz EM125 card within 1-1/2 inches (38mm) of the keypad's integrated reader.

4.4 Advanced Functions

• Programming User Codes: Use the Super User Code to add, modify, or delete individual user codes.
• Temporary Visitor Codes: Program temporary codes for guests with specific time or single-use restrictions.
• Duress Codes: If forced to grant access, entering a duress code will activate a silent alarm while appearing to grant normal access.
• Keypad Backlight: Adjust the backlight setting (FULL, AUTO, OFF) via the programming menu to suit environmental conditions.
• Time-based Access: Utilize the real-time clock to configure schedules for automatic access disablement or enablement.

5. Maintenance

The Seco-Larm SK-1123-SPQ is designed for durability and minimal maintenance. Regular checks can ensure continued optimal performance.

• Cleaning: Wipe the stainless steel faceplate with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish or electronic components.
• Connection Check: Periodically inspect wiring connections for any signs of wear, corrosion, or loosening, especially in outdoor environments.
• Functionality Test: Regularly test all access methods (code, card) and associated outputs to ensure they are functioning correctly.
• Power Loss Protection: The integrated EEPROM memory retains all programmed settings in the event of a power outage, requiring no reprogramming.
