2. Description
The K4-2 is single door multifunction standalone access controller or
a Wiegand output keypad or card reader. The K4-2 supports up to
2000 users in either a Card, 4 digit PIN, or a Card + PIN option. The
inbuilt card reader supports EM, 125KHZ frequency cards. The K4-2
has many extra features including an anti-magnetic MOS output, lock
output current short circuit protection, a Wiegand input and output
interface. These features make the K4-2 an ideal choice for door
access not only for small shops and domestic households but also for
commercial and industrial applications such as factories, warehouses,
laboratories, banks and prisons.
