Troubleshooting
Communication Problems
Default Initialization:
TheKT-300defaultinitializationisdoneatKantech.Thefollowingsteps
should only be done if :
(A) Youchangedthesoftware(e.g.:youwereusingEntraPass,theninstalled
WinPass) and there’s no communication,
(B) TheKT-300wascommunicatingviatheRS-232portandyouinstalled
a VC-485 to communicate via the RS-485 port,
(C) You were using the KT-300 at a local site and now want to configure
it for remote operation.
How to use the default initialization (hard reset):
1) Disconnect the transformer and the battery,
2) Remove all connections of DOOR1 and RL1 terminals,
3) Place a jumper between the DOOR1 and RL1 terminals,
4) Apply AC power to the transformer. The VITAL LED should flash
4 times. This means that the controller is in the initialization mode,
5) Disconnect the jumper,
6) When the controller is communicating with the PC, the VITAL LED
will flash 3 beats at a time,
7) Reconnect the battery.
KT-300 Controller Maintenance
Recommendations
ItishighlyrecommendedtotesttheKT-300controllerbyperformingthe
following tests:
1) Bi-annual test for battery:
Remove AC power from the controller and connect the battery to the
controller for one hour. This test will ensure that if a power failure
occurs,the battery will be able to support normal operations. This test
should be performed twice a year. Once the test has been performed
sucessfully, reconnect AC power to the controller.
2) Annual test for emergency lithium battery:
Measurevoltageoflithiumbatterywhenpoweristotallyremovedfrom
the controller (AC & DC power). To ensure maximum operation and
prevent loss of power, if the lithium battery voltage measures below
2.5VDC, please contact your distributor to return the KT-300 for
maintenance.
