USING A SLAVE WITH THE ADVANTAGE DKS II
WIRE RECOMMENDATIONS: 6 CONDUCTOR, 22 GUAGE, TWISTED SHIELDED CABLE
The ADVANTAGE DKS II communicates with two 12-000 slave keypads utilizing wiegand technology.
NOTE: Do not run your gate control wires in the same shielded cable as your slave communication wires.
There are two holes on the back of the unit which are for slave communication wires, and gate control wires. Run
your wires through the holes and under the circuit board and then make your connections on the communications
and relays board. Try to unwrap the foil shield as little as possible to keep as much EMI away from the board as
possible. Be careful that the foil shield does not short out the circuit board. Also be careful that when you close the
unit that pressure is not put on the circuit board, and that none of your wires are hitting the reset button.
Slave connections are to be made on the Communications and Relays board. For slave 1 and slave 2 there are
numbers labeled 1 thru 6. These numbers correspond to standard weigand color codes in this way.
USE THESE COLORS FROM THE SLAVE AND ATTACH THEM TO THEIR NUMBER ON THE COMMUNICATION AND RELAY
BOARD.

USING A PRINTER WITH THE ADVANTAGE DKS II
The ADVANTAGE DKS II incorporates an RS-232 serial interface on board for connection to a serial printer in order to
print out recorded transactions. The transactions may be printed as they occur or the contents of the history buffer
may be dumped out to the printer.
Connecting the printer
CABLE TYPE:
22 gauge, 6 conductor, shielded (BELDEN #9931 or equivalent)
MAX DISTANCE:
50 feet (*) SEE BELOW
Keep the cable run at least 1 foot away from high voltage, transformers, florescence lights, etc. An interface cable,
(63-030), is required to link the advantage DKS II to the printer. Plug one end into the printer receptacle located
on the underside of the printer. Plug the other end into the RJ45 jack on the back of the ADVANTAGE DKS II Unit.
Caution: Do not plug printer phone cable into RJ12 Port labeled CASHon the OM-200 Printer.
Printer Setup
The ADVANTAGE DKS II unit default configuration communicates with a printer at 9600 bps, 8 bits, no parity, CR valid.
The baud rate settings on the ADVANTAGE DKS II can be changed through software (see programming Series 400).
The baud rate choices are 9600(default), 4800, 2400, and 1200. To test the printer, load the printer with paper, plug the
printer in, make sure the printer is on line and simply enter any 5 digit code less than 65535 from the keypad.
IF USING OUR OM—200 PRINTER ALL DIP SWITCHES ARE OFF EXCEPT #2,#3 & # 7
ACCESS & FUNCTION CODES
NOTE: SINCE THE PROX 2000 II SYSTEM IS BASED ON WEIGAND TECHNOLOGY, ALL CARDS USED BY THE SYSTEM MUST
RESIDE BETWEEN 0 AND 2000. AN ENTRY OF A CARD NUMBER OF 0 OR A NUMBER HIGHER THAN 2000 WILL RESULT IN AN
ERROR.
Depending on which model you have, your unit may be programmed with multiple (5 digit ) access codes. The
maximum number of access codes that can be programmed into the unit is reflected in the model number (eg. 24-
100 = 100 access codes). There are two different types of codes; ACCESS CODES & FUNCTION CODES. Access codes
are standard user codes for gaining access onto or into a restricted area. Function codes are assigned a specific
function. The function codes and their descriptions are as follows.
