Ethernet - All Red controllers come with a built-in RJ45 connection for
network connectivity. Once connected, the Red 8 controller is
Self-Discoverable from pdk.io using IPV6. Alternatively, you may use IPV4
or assign a static IP using pdk.io if desired.

Powering Board - Connect unswitched AC power (120VAC 60Hz) to
terminals marked [L, G, N]. L to hot, N to neutral, G to ground. Use 14 AWG or
larger for all power connections. Secure green wire lead to earth ground.

Disclaimer -Installers must adhere to all regulations and hold the proper
state licenses prior to supplying voltage to the power supply.
Battery Backup is strongly recommended on all ProdataKey hardware. The
recommended backup battery for the Red 8 is a 12V 8ah battery.
What is OSDP - Open Supervised Device Protocol (OSDP) is an access control
communications standard developed by the Security Industry Association to
improve interoperability among access control and security products. OSDP
brings heightened security and improved functionality. It is more secure than
Wiegand and supports AES-128 encryption.
OSDP Wire Specication - Four (4) conductor twisted pair shielded is
recommended to remain fully TIA-485 compliant at the maximum supported
baud rates and cable distances.
NOTE - It’s possible to reuse existing Wiegand wiring for OSDP. However, using a
simple stranded cable typical of Wiegand readers generally does not meet the
RS485 twisted pair recommendations.
OSDP Multi-Drop - Multi-drop gives you the capability to accommodate
many readers by running one length of 4-conductor cable, eliminating the
need to run wire for each wire.
NOTE - Four (4) is the maximum number of readers each port can support.
NOTE - Wiegand readers will not work when OSDP jumpers are installed.
Fire Input - To integrate the fire system using a Red 8 door controller, refer to
wiring diagrams in the Partner Portal at
prodatakey.zendesk.com
Programming - After the Red 8 door controller has been connected back to
the Cloud Node, access the configuration software as instructed in the
programming manual. This manual is available for download at
prodatakey.zendesk.com
Reader Compatibility - ProdataKey does not require proprietary readers.
Door controllers accept a Wiegand input, including biometric readers and
keypads. OSDP readers are supported by using an included jumper (see
OSDP reference guide). Contact support for details.
UL 294 Compliance - All equipment must meet appropriate UL certifications.
For UL listed installations, all cable runs must be less than 30 meters (98.5’)
