1.2 Product Description
The 242eM keypad features the most flexibility and options avail-
able in a self-contained unit. It has an accessory relay board that
provides an additional three relays. It can perform access control
functions and also its four relay outputs can be assigned inde-
pendently for timed operation or to latch. The 242eM keypad can
control up to four devices, and is perfect for controlling electronic
locking devices, security systems, CCTV systems, automatic opera-
tors, or machinery.
The 212eM keypad features a single-relay output to control any de-
vice requiring an on/off switch. The output is timed or latched
and operated by a user’s PIN code. Additionally, the 212eM key-
pad provides basic keyless entry by controlling a door locking de-
vicewheresecurityisnotanissue.
All eM style keypads are designed for both indoor and outdoor
flush mount applications. The electronics for each keypad are con-
formal coated in the manufacturing process in order to provide
this level of application flexibility. In addition, each keypad uses
metal keys to assure long-term, high-quality performance. All eM
style keypads mount to any standard single-gang electrical box or
directly to any wall.
NOTE: This manual covers both 212eM and 242eM. All features
referring to the additional relays and outputs are available only
on the 242eM model.

3. Keypad Tampering
To prevent tampering, a tamper switch can be installed in the sin-
gle gang box used for mounting the keypad. The tamper switch
must activate if the keypad is removed from the box and must dis-
connect power from the lock. The lock must be a fail-secure de-
vice, meaning the lock remains locked when power is removed. In
addition, once the tamper device is activated, it must be configured
so that it can only be reset from within the protected area. Only a
Sentrol 3012 or Sentrol 3025T tamper switch can be used. The dia-
grams on the next page show the suggested mounting location for
each device.
3.1 IEI Tamper Power Supplies
IEI access system power supplies are designed specifically for ac-
cess control applications. Two models are available: board level
and in a cabinet. Both feature a tamper circuit with a reset button
mounted on the circuit board. Using the tamper switch as detailed
and connected to the power supply tamper circuit, unauthorized
opening of the case or prying the unit off the wall triggers this tam-
per loop, thus preventing the lock from being released until the re-
set button is pressed.

4. Mounting
Thekeypadisdesignedtobeflushmountedusingastandardsingle-
gang electrical box. In addition, itcanbeflushmounteddirectlyto
the wall surface by cutting a hole in the wall. To properly size the
mounting and wire access hole, use the installation template on the
last page in this manual and on the unit’s container.
Mounting height can vary depending on requirements. An appro-
priate range is typically between 48 and 52 inches on center off the
floor.
For outdoor installations, use a weatherproof backbox and seal the
wire entry locations with silicone and provide a drain hole. In addi-
tion, use the anti-oxidant grease pack for the wire harness connec-
tors.

5.5 Wiring Remote Trigger as Request to Exit
(REX) Button and Door Contacts
Use the following steps to connectthekeypadtoanormallyopen
REX device and normally closed door switch:
1. Connect the brown wire (REX Input) to the normally open
connection the REX device.
2. Connect the white/orange (loop common) to the common on
theREXdeviceandthecommonthedoorswitch.
3. Connect the white wire (door loop) to the normally closed
connection on the door switch.
NOTE: By default, the REX function operates the virtual lock out-
put only, but this can be changed using command 49. In addition,
the door loop does not need to be closed for the REX function to
operate, by default, but setting option 8 to 0 under command 30
programs the REX function to operate only when the door loop is
closed. This prevents the REX from re-triggering when the door is
open.

Figure 10 Plugging on Relay Board - Option 1
There are two options for plugging the relay board onto the key-
pad, depending on the installation. For flush mount applications,
plug the relay board onto P3 horizontally, as shown in Option 1 be-
low. If the keypad is mounted using a surface mount backbox, use
the right angle connector included in the backbox. First insert the
right angle connector into S3 on the relay board; then plug the con-
nector onto P3 on the keypad. This is shown in Option 2 below.
Use the included tie wrap to bundle all the wires together from the
keypad wire harness and relay board.

6. Testing the Keypad
After installing the keypad, IEI recommends that you perform the
keypad self-test once a year, to ensure that the keypad works prop-
erly.
1. To perform the self-test, with the unit powered up, press the
following keys on the keypad:
7890#123456*
•If all 12 keypresses are accepted, the keypad enters self-test
mode.
•The LEDs alternate green, yellow, and red followed by the
sounder beeping three times.
2. Verify that the master code works correctly. (The master code
accesses program mode and activates the main relay to verify
that the locking device is working.)
The default master code is 1234.

installation, program the keypad in the following order:
•Step 1: Assigning Virtual Outputs to Physical Outputs
•Step 2: Programming Output Time Durations
•Step 3: Programming Users
•Step 4: Programming Keypad Options
7.2 Assigning Virtual Outputs to Physical
Outputs
The keypad is equipped with eleven Virtual Outputs and six Physi-
cal Outputs. Virtual Outputs are functions that you can
assign to operate any Physical Output. Physical Outputs include
the main relay, the three relays on the accessory relay board, and
the two audio alerts.
•Using command 10, you can assign any Virtual Output to
any Physical Output or disable a Physical Output.
•Each Physical Output can only have one Virtual Output
assigned to it.
