SECTION 1 - INTRODUCTION

The DoorKing Remote Account Manager for Windows Version 6.3 is a powerful, flexible and easy to use
computer program that allows you to manage access control in a variety of controlled access applications
including apartment complexes, gated communities, apartment and condominium building's, college resident
halls, office buildings, factories, industrial sites, etc. Use this program with the DKS models 1833, 1834, 1835
and 1837 Telephone Entry and Access Control Systems, and with the model 1838 Multi Door Card Access
System. Programming the access system can be via the DK IMServer, an internet connection, LAN, modem or
RS-232 protocol.

This software program will allow you to program and manage up to 9,999 different 1833, 1834, 1835, 1837 or
1838 systems (called accounts), each with up to 16 different controlled access points (using Tracker expansion
boards), each using a variety of control technologies (Card, RFID, PIN, etc.) for up to 3000 individuals, and can
accommodate up to 8000 unique device (Card, RFID, PIN) codes. You can also manage guest and resident
elevator usage for each account for up to eight (8) elevators serving up to 64 floors each for those applications
where elevator control is a necessity. NOTE: The 1834 does not have card, security level, anti-pass back or
elevator control capability, and cannot be interfaced with Tracker expansion boards.

IMPORTANT! Prior to creating a new account, you will be prompted to choose the "series" number of
the circuit board in the entry system that you are going to program. This software program and user
manual can only be used with 40E and 30 series circuit boards.
