Chapter 1: Introduction/Installation About this Manual This manual is designed for installers of the International Electronics prox.pad Standalone Proximity Reader/Keypad Access Control System. The device has three operating modes, Stand-Alone (see Chapter 2), Wiegand Front End (see Chapter 3), and Secured Series Front End (see Chapter 4).
This warranty shall expire two years after shipping date for prox.pad Keypads. Except as stated above, IEI makes no warranties, either expressed or implied, as to any matter whatsoever, including, without limitation to, the condition of its products, their merchantability, or fitness for any particular application.
CD with Installation/Programming Manuals ● Items the Installer Must Supply For each prox.pad unit installation, the installer must supply the following items: Proximity Cards or Keyfobs; The prox.pad unit works with these four types of cards: ● Prox Card II •...
The Wiegand data is just sent to the Wiegand control panel. The panel then makes all access control decisions and controls the prox.pad LEDs. You can use it as a keypad or a card reader. The keypad data is only sent as 26-Bit card data, but the card reader just passes the data from the card to the panel.
● In this configuration, the prox.pad unit is affixed with the four IEI supplied adhesive pads to the glass door or the window adjacent to the door being accessed, on the interior side of the glass. The side cut-out on the unit is used to bring the wires out of the side of the prox.pad case.
Installation/Programming Manual 1.15 Checking the Cables Figure 1 below provides a detailed illustration of the prox.pad’s wiring harness. Figure 2 illustrates the pin connectors on the main circuit board; Table 2 describes these four Pin connectors, P1, P2, P3, and P4.

Typically, the prox.pad unit is wall mounted outside the access area on the unsecured side of the door. Figure 3 below illustrates the components on the prox.pad unit used for wall mounting. Two single-gang box holes align with two corresponding holes in the single-gang box.
1.16.3 Performing a Secure Installation In this configuration, the prox.pad prox antenna housing is removed from the keypad/controller and located a maximum of 10 feet away. The controller/keypad is located inside the secure area. 1. Remove the antenna housing from the prox.pad keypad/controller as described below: Disconnect the backplate of the prox.pad unit from the front keypad/controller.
Installation/Programming Manual For the remote antenna wire, use ALPHA 1294C (22AWG) 4-wire, stranded and shielded cable. The cable shield drain wire must be grounded at the reader end to P1, pin 4 connection (DC Power Supply Ground). Figure 5: Performing a Secure Installation Page 22 of 86 Document # 6055676, Rev 2.2, D4b...
2. Clip the screw mounting tabs from both the magnet and reed switch using pliers or a wire cutter. 3. With the prox.pad base removed, stick the magnet to the Keypad board in location A, using the adhesive tape. 4. Stick the reed switch on the inside of the long side of the J-box in the upper right-hand corner, using the adhesive tape. The switch should be flush with the edge of the J-box.
2. (When handling the main printed circuit board, to guard against possible static discharges, hold the board by its edges with one hand and then touch a grounded object before touching the prox.pad unit.) Remove the main printed circuit board by pressing the two spring tabs in the direction of the arrows as shown in Figure 7. Be careful with the wires.
Defaulting prox.pad Memory If necessary, the prox.pad main memory can be defaulted (erased). This procedure explains how to do this; see Figure 8 below. You would default the memory, if, for instance, static discharges have corrupted the prox.pad unit, during shipping or installation. You can also do this if you have simply forgotten the Master Code and you need to enter program mode.
Inputs/Outputs The prox.pad is equipped with two relay outputs. The Main Relay is a Form-C, 2A relay used to control the locking device. The Aux Relay is a Form-C, 1A relay and its function is programmable. You can program the Aux Relay to operate as either an Alarm Shunt, Forced Door or Propped Door output used shunt out an existing alarm system or signal an alarm if the door is forced or propped open.
Unit Capacity The prox.pad unit can accommodate up to 2,000 users. Each user can have a card/tag, a PIN code, or a card/tag plus a PIN code. A maximum of 1,000 time-stamped transactions can be stored in the prox.pad unit. Each transaction includes these parameters: Time, Date, User “slot number,”...
The following sections describe how to wire the Aux Relay for either Alarm Shunt, Forced Door, or Propped Door, depending on how the prox.pad’s alarm output is to be used for this installation. Wiring the door contacts, Request to Exti (REX) and main relay are also discussed.
IEI unit.) To incorporate this feature, follow the steps below; see Figure 10. 1. Turn OFF power to the prox.pad unit, and then unlatch the keypad from the plastic housing. 2. Locate connector P2 (the 6-pin connector) on the main circuit board.
(Warning device not included with the IEI unit.) To incorporate this feature, follow the steps below; see Figure 11. 1. Turn OFF power to the prox.pad unit, and then unlatch the keypad from the plastic housing. 2. Locate connector P2 (the 6-pin connector) on the main circuit board.
With Auto Re-Lock, a long door open time can be programmed. Auto Re-Lock overrides the main relay timer, resetting the door open time as soon as the prox.pad unit senses that the door is open. A long door open time allows people sufficient time to carry packages from the proximity reader/keypad to the door and open it before the timer runs out.
Wiring an External REX Switch (Request to Exit) The prox.pad unit can be wired to monitor a remote switching device, which is intended to be installed on the secure side of a door. The Request to Exit (REX) switch is a momentary input closure that engages the main relay for the same length of time for which the main relay is programmed.
Wiring the Main Relay The door lock is wired to connector P1 on the prox.pad main circuit board. Wiring for this 5-pin connector is described in Table 2, Figure 14 provides an Electric Strike (Fail Secure) wiring diagram, Figure 15 a MagLock (Fail Safe) wiring diagram. Refer to the power supply recommendations in section 1.13.1 if necessary.
Testing the prox.pad At this point in a typical installation, it is assumed that the prox.pad unit has been mounted and wired successfully as described earlier and that testing can begin. IEI recommends, however, that first-time installers test the prox.pad unit BEFORE actually mounting and wiring the unit to become familiar with its operation.
General Programming Features The first step in programming the prox.pad unit is to place it into program mode by using the master code, which is defaulted to 1234. To place the prox.pad unit in program mode, press: 99 # Master Code * When the prox.pad is in program mode the yellow LED flashes slowly.
2.7.1.b prox.pad Default Settings Table 4 lists the default settings for the prox.pad unit as shipped from the factory. Subsequent sections in this chapter explain how to change these default settings or program additional functions. Table 4: prox.pad Default Settings – Standalone Mode...
Installation/Programming Manual 2.7.1.c prox.pad LED Indicators/Sounder Operations – Standalone Mode The table below describes the various LED and Sounder indications used in the prox.pad while operating in standalone mode. Table 5: prox.pad LED Indicators/Sounder Operations – Standalone Mode LED/Sounder...
Programming Users The following section describes in detail how to program users. The prox.pad can store up to 2000 users. Each user is stored in a separate location in the unit's memory. This is referred to as the user location. Codes can be from 1 to 6 digit in length in any combination.
When you are a combination “code and card” user you can present either your proximity card first at the proximity reader or enter the code first on the prox.pad keypad. Codes can be from 1 to 6 digit in length in any combination. After you either present your card or enter your code, the red and green LEDs alternate.
To program a 26-bit “Card Only” user via batch entry without presentation (without presenting the card to the reader) use command 56. “Batch entry” allows you to enter multiple, sequential 26-bit HID format cards into the prox.pad unit’s memory at one time.
Command 50 Quick Program Feature - “Code Only” or “Card Only” The prox.pad contains a quick method for programming normal access user type users that are usually programmed using command 50. When using this method the 50 is not required in the command sequence.
Deleting Users There are two methods for deleting users from the prox.pad unit. You can either delete a single user or you can delete a block of consecutive users. You must know the user locations for user(s) you wish to delete in order to do this. If you do not know the user locations you can dump a user list via the IR LED to the optional Data Collection Device.
Installation/Programming Manual 2.7.4 Programming Output Relays and Audio Alerts 2.7.4.a Changing the Main Relay Time Setting the main relay time using command 11 simultaneously sets the time for all normal access users (user type 1). The factory default main relay time is five (5) seconds. You can set the main relay time in one-second increments from one (1) second to ninety- nine (99) seconds using the following command sequence: 1.
Installation/Programming Manual 2.7.4.c Programming the Propped Door Audio Alert You can program the local sounder on the keypad to operate as the Propped Door output in addition to or instead of the Aux Relay. This feature is enabled by default. Use the following command sequence to enable or disable this feature: 1.
Installation/Programming Manual 2.7.4.e Programming the Propped Door Time To program the Propped Door output time use command 44. This time applies to both the audio alert and to the Aux relay, when this feature is assigned to it. You can program it from 10 to 990 seconds in 10 second increments. The default value is 30 seconds, which means the output triggers if the door position switch is held open for 30 seconds.
Audio Keypress Feedback refers to the sounder beeping momentarily each time a key is pressed. This feedback indicates the key was pressed hard enough for the prox.pad to acknowledge and recognize which key you pressed. By default this option is enabled, but if you need to change it, use the following programming sequence: 1.
Installation/Programming Manual 2.7.5.c Enabling/Disabling Auto-Entry Auto-Entry is a feature that determines whether or not you need to press the * key after entering your access code on the keypad. By default, the feature is disabled which means you are required to enter the * key after your access code to gain entry. If you enable the feature you are not required to enter the * key after entering your code to gain entry.
The yellow LED stops flashing. 2.7.5.f Selecting Daylight Savings Time Format You can program the prox.pad Daylight Savings Time Format to either European format or US format. The formats are as follows: United States Format: ● Begins Second Sunday in March - turn ahead 1 hour @ 2:00 AM ○...
Installation/Programming Manual 2.7.5.g Programming Timed Anti-Passback When you enable Timed Anti-Passback, which is the default value, you must specify a length of time that must pass before the same prox card can be processed after it's presented. This requires that the card be outside of the prox read field during the entire period of time.
This feature is enabled/disabled through command 30, option 18. It is disabled by default. See below. As codes are entered, the prox.pad maintains a count of the number of consecutive invalid keypad PINs that are entered. When the invalid PIN count reaches the value programmed in command 32, parameter 4 (defaulted to 5 attempts), the invalid PIN lockout is activated.
Page 51
Installation/Programming Manual To program the Invalid PIN lockout action use the following command sequence: 1. Enter Program Mode. Press: 99 # Master Code * The yellow LED flashes slowly. 2. To program the action for the forced door output, press: 30 # 19 # 1 # ** The yellow LED continues to blink slowly.
Erasing Entire Memory/Resetting System Defaults Entering command 46 deletes everything from the prox.pad memory including the user list but not the transaction log and restores the default settings. This is used as a last resort if you need to erase a specific user and could not retrieve the Programmed User List.
Selecting Transaction Log Information When you first install your prox.pad you should decide which transaction events you want to store in the even log. The event log can store up to 1000 events, but you may not want to see every one of them. You can select the specific transaction events you want to store in the log by “masking”...
You can dump a transaction event log to the optional Data Collection Device (DCD) PDA Software via the prox.pad’s IR LED, using two different methods. You can either program a Log Dump User (user type 2) into memory or place the prox.pad into program mode and manually enter the Log Dump command (command 70).
Dumping a Programmed User List You can dump the programmed users list, containing all user information, to the optional Data Collection Device via the prox.pad's IR LED using command 25. You can either dump the entire user list or dump the user list starting at a specific user location.
If you need to change any of the program default values or wish to add functions, first enter program mode and then enter the desired program command. Defaults are in bold. Note: The master code must be changed prior to performing any programming on the prox.pad unit. Table 8: Standalone Programming Commands...

Wiegand Front End Mode Description In Wiegand Front End Mode (also known as “WFE” mode), the prox.pad unit is used as a front end for a Wiegand Access control panel. The prox.pad operates as “code only” or “card only”, in Wiegand Front End Mode. Refer to the instruction manual with your Wiegand panel for more information.
Entering Program Mode The first step in programming the prox.pad unit is to place it into program mode by using the master code, which is defaulted to 1234. To place the prox.pad unit in program mode, press: 99 # Master Code * When the prox.pad is in program mode the yellow LED flashes slowly.
Programming the Facility Code for Wiegand Keypad Data This option is used to set the facility code used when you are using the prox.pad as a keypad front end. This value must match the facility code used in your panel if required. The default value in prox.pad is 1.
Audio Keypress Feedback refers to the sounder beeping momentarily each time a key is pressed. This feedback indicates the key was pressed hard enough for the prox.pad to acknowledge and recognize which key you pressed. By default this option is enabled, but if you need to change it, use the following programming sequence: 1.
Enabling/Disabling the Red LED The prox.pad is equipped with a Bi-Color red/green LED. You have the option of enabling or disabling the red LED operation. By default, the red LED is enabled and turns on/off depending on which state you have the LED wire programmed for.
Enabling/Disabling the Green LED The prox.pad is equipped with a Bi-Color red/green LED. You have the option of enabling or disabling the green LED operation. By default, the green LED is enabled and turns on/off depending on which state you have the programmed LED active state (high or low).
Installation/Programming Manual 3.3.13 Programming the Green LED Active State In Wiegand Front End Mode you can control how the green LED operates using the LED wire, which is the brown wire on connector P3. When you program this option for an active high state, the green LED turns on when the wire is connected to positive voltage.
