Installation This section describes how to install the Simplekey 4 system. Installation is only to be carried out by competent, qualified and experienced personnel trained by KMS. Wire in accordance with the country of installation’s National Wiring Regulations (UK BS7671, IEE National Wiring Regulations). Failure to do so can result in injury or death by electric shock.
• One or two door DIN rail expansions. • Connecting outgoing BUS communications. • Connecting BUS readers – Note fitment of 12v fused link by KMS is required. KMS use pre-made ethernet RJ45 patch leads for interconnects, if making your own leads the PIN outs are below.
RJ45 Adaptor A single RJ45 socket with screw connectors. KMS included these with the one and two door DIN rail systems. Each board has fly leads connecting Lock Controllers and Reader Interfaces together, the RJ45 is then used to connect to the system controller or I2C2.
13.5V at the factory. It should be installed somewhere that is easily accessible. The metal cabinet KMS provide has a gland situated at the bottom - this must be fitted at the bottom to avoid ingress of water or debris. The gland provides an easy location to run conduit.

Connections All connections to the Simplekey 4 controller are made by terminal blocks situated at the left and bottom of the controller. Note: Always remove power from the controller before removing a terminal block. These are the available connections (from top left, anti-clockwise):...
Communication BUS Communication BUS — Master to Slave. Low current 0v connection up to 200ma output current return. 12V @ Low current 12v DC at up to 200ma output current (BUS reader only). 200mA Communication BUS — Slave to Master. 0V return High current 0v connection up to 5A output current.
Battery +12v, 7Ah lead acid battery (e.g. Yuasa NP7-12FR). Note: The Simplekey 4 System Controller does not provide a battery charging facility, this terminal is for the connection of a battery only. If battery backup is required a suitable alternative for charging of the battery is required, contact KMS Technical Support for further information.
Lock Outputs The System Controller provides two powered lock outputs set via micro-switch. Each can supply up to 2Amps.The ‘Lock Default’ mode is set to energised (EN) by default. This is suitable for ‘Power to Lock’ devices, i.e. magnets or Fail-Safe latches. Lock modes are as follows: Lock Default Switch Position Behaviour...
• A Fail-Safe lock to ensure that the door is released if the power fails. KMS recommend that a magnetic lock is used as these are less likely to jam or seize.
Auxiliary Inputs Three auxiliary inputs are provided per lock output, these functions are pre- determined by KMS. All inputs are normally supplied open going closed to the terminal marked GND, unless otherwise requested. Aux 1 trades has been replaced; any input can be set as trades by KMS.
System Controller cabinet. It is extremely important to use high quality cables throughout the installation to ensure consistent and reliable functionality. KMS BUS data cabling must be Cat5, Cat5e or Cat6 with either solid or stranded copper conductors. Cheaper Cat5 cabling using conductors made from Copper Coated Aluminium (CCA) and Copper Coated Steel (CCS) must NOT be used under any circumstances.
Alarm cable, CW1308, Cat5 Other General INPUTS Alarm cable, CW1308, Cat5 KMS provide Antennas in 5, 10, 15 and 20 metre lengths, all of High Gain GPRS Antenna which must not be cut and re-terminated due to tuning of antenna. Further information later in this guide.
BUS communication cable runs. Ideally these should be within the fabric of the building in separate containment. In cabinet wiring supplied by KMS: (Other OEM supplied builds should be wired using the same cable colour identification and specification.) 1 core - Green 0.2mm 1 core - White 0.2mm...
Between Cabinet Wiring The wiring guide below should be used where separate cabinets require the BUS DATA wired. The same applies regardless of the number of cabinets. The use of a 12v DC power supply is required in each separate cabinet to power all the local NODES. 1 core Green 0.2mm - Wire to Green/White of Cat5 1 core White 0.2mm...
Fail-Safe or Fail-Secure. Both operations assume local 12V power remains. KMS will default the Lock Controller to operate as Fail-Safe unless otherwise requested. Requests must be made in writing by the approved installation contractor. To comply with Secure By Design requirements (SBD) ALL doors must Fail-Secure.
The Lock Controller features BUS Communication LEDs. These are to be used as a guide to the M2S and S2M signals. Note: Earlier versions of the Lock Controller have alternative wiring configurations, contact KMS Technical Support for more information. Key Management Systems Ltd...
N/O: Normally open relay contacts 2 Amp Maximum. The auxiliary inputs above have been assigned their default function. However, functions can be configured differently from the above. These are the defaults programmed by KMS for all systems unless otherwise stated.
Lock Controller Output Connections 0v: Connect to PSU 0v - ONLY CONNECT IF SYSTEM NOT OEM PRE-WIRED. 0v: Used for input triggers. 0v: Used for input triggers. 0v to Lock: Switched 0v from the lock – energises the lock when switched on. 12v to lock: Constant.
Lock Output It is critical that all locks are wired intrinsically safe. This means that the access control system should never be the sole means of releasing the doors. An emergency over-ride switch can be fitted that disables the power to the lock regardless of the access control system.
Lock Output continued The wiring example below show the lock’s +12v output being wired directly through a normally closed contact of the Request to Exit button and Fire Switch/emergency break glass. DOOR En De AUX1 AUX2 AUX3 02200009 R.T.E Fire switch Key Management Systems Ltd 35 |...
Communications BUS Input M2S: Communication BUS — Master to Slave. 0v: Tied to System Controller 0v. 12v: Common connection with 6. S2M: Communication BUS — Slave to Master. 0v: Common to connection 8. 12v: Common connection with 3. BUS mode: Not used. 0v: Common connection with 5.
Reader Interface The Reader Interface provides an interface between non-BUS KMS standard readers and other types (e.g. Wiegand) so that they can be integrated with a Simplekey 4 system. The Reader Interface has two channels for connecting a single reader. Typically, one reader per door, if read-in and read-out is required then a single Reader Interface is used per door.
Reader Interface Overview Set reader mode for each channel KMS or Wiegand. Default SET TO OFF = KMS Note: Due to space considerations on the PCB, reader terminations are labelled 1 through to 3 for each channel. Reader Connections A and B 1.
Reader Connections Ch1 & Ch2 LED – Controls reader LED i.e. goes green if token is valid. Data 0 Wiegand 26 bit - If Wiegand SET DIP switch to ON. SIG/ Wiegand 26 bit – If Wiegand SET DIP switch to ON. Fused output for Ch1 &...
BUS Readers Compatibility BUS readers are only compatible with Simplekey 4 Controllers at version 3401 or higher. BUS readers can work using KMS Sharktooth, Entrotag, PAC, Stanley and GDX proximity tokens and cards. Cabling BUS readers MUST be wired using Cat5, Cat5e or Cat6 cable for optimum operation. Cable should be pure copper, the use of CCS/CCA will degrade system performance.
Note: Due to changes in the design, earlier BUS Readers with a UDN lower than 04000161 have an alternative wiring configuration. Each reader has its wiring version attached when shipped. Please contact KMS Technical for more information. Key Management Systems Ltd 41 |...
Request to Exit buttons (RTE) and often emergency break glasses. KMS would recommend the lock +12v connection is wired through the RTE normally closed contacts, this will ensure the +12v connection is broken on exit as well as the system de-energising the 0v.
Basic System Wiring System Wiring Overview This figure shows a basic system setup showing all components. The following diagrams breaks the connections into these blocks: • Controller with Lock direct and via a Lock Controller • Controller with Reader Interface / Reader Key Management Systems Ltd 43 | P a g e...
System Wiring Example 1 This image shows a system wired to its local power supply with KMS BUS data connections direct to the System Controller. In this example KMS are powering the locks directly. This is the recommended installation configuration. Each Lock Controller does provide a normally open/normally closed volt free relay in order to trigger external equipment, for example a powered door closer or door entry system.
This image shows a system wired to a local power supply for the logic side of the controller but NOT lock power. A separate power supply is supplying the locks. KMS BUS data connections are wired between system cabinets. This is wired so KMS are providing the lock power directly from the Lock Controllers.
Security / Alarms Power Cut If there is a power cut, then the system is set up to automatically unlock the doors when Fail-Safe locks are used. When Fail-Secure locks are used the system will apply power to unlock the doors. When power is returned the system resets and locks operate as normal.
A non-steered roaming SIM is provided with each System Controller capable of roaming all networks. These are provided by KMS who manage the SIM contracts. A customer may want to provide their own SIM, in this case the modem requires different configuration.
Communication Module Variants Note: KMS reserve the right to change the specifications without prior notification. CM-4G features • 4G LTE Modem (Network Technology SIM card dependant). • 5x LED signal strength indicators for easier and more accurate antennae installation. • 5x LED Communication status indicators. Easy indicators for remote connection status.
