    Figure 4: KT-4 cabinet for global regions excluding North America Features The KT-4 controller includes the following features: Operating modes Use the KT-4 controller in one of the following modes: • Stand-alone mode: use as a stand-alone access controller with an Ethernet or Wi-Fi configuration for direct configuration.

  • Page 13: Compatibility With Entrapass

    When you use the KT-4 with any EntraPass edition, the first controller becomes the main controller and can poll up to 31 controllers. The KT-4 asynchronously polls the KT-1, KT-2, KT-4, or KT-400 controllers, and communicates with the EntraPass gateway only when it is necessary. This reduces the amount of bandwidth that the security system requires to operate on the network.

    Lock outputs The KT-4 has four onboard lock outputs. You can configure any onboard or expansion module to perform the locking function. Lock outputs are supervised for open circuit or short to ground fault detection.

  • Page 15: Relay Outputs

    Relay outputs The KT-4 has four onboard relays. The four relays on the KT-4 board and any relays on optional expansion boards that attach through RS-485 are defined as local relay outputs. ioSmart card readers The KT-4 is compatible with ioSmart card readers, which provide security by using end-to-end encryption between the ID badge credentials and the EntraPass software.
