1. DESCRIPTION
The CV-550SPK V3 is a back-lit single door multifunction standalone
access control keypad with a Wiegand input/output interface.
It is suitable for mounting either indoors or outdoors in harsh
environments. It is housed in a strong, sturdy and vandal proof Zinc
Alloy electroplated case. The supplied shield will provide greater
visibility of the illuminated status LED'S as well as keeping weather
elements off of the face of the keypad. The electronics are fully potted
so the CV-550SPK V3 is waterproof and conforms to IP68.
The CV-550SPK V3 supports up to 20,000 users in either a Card, 4-to-
6-digit PIN, or a Card + PIN option. The built-in card reader supports
125KHZ HID 26/34/37-bit cards/tags, as well as the EM format. The
PIN output data can be congured for either 26 bit, 4-bit or 8-bit burst
modes making it compatible with most Access systems.
These features make the CV-550SPK V3 an ideal choice for door
access for commercial and industrial applications such as factories,
oces, warehouses, laboratories, banks, and prisons.
