Ethernet - All Red controllers come with a built-in RJ45 connecon for
network connecvity. Once connected, the Red Pedestal controller is
Self-Discoverable from pdk.io using IPV6. Alternavely, you may use IPV4
or assign a stac IP using pdk.io if desired.

DC INPUT - Use included 14 VDC, 2 Amp transformer for DC power
input. It is recommended to use 18/2 wire. For high voltage applicaons, use
the HV Converter (PN: HVC).
BATTERY - The enclosure will fit most 12 VDC 1.2 Ah baeries.
The baery is connected with supplied leads and is polarity sensive.

What is OSDP - Open Supervised Device Protocol (OSDP) is an access
control communicaons standard developed by the Security Industry
Associaon to improve interoperability among access control and security
products. OSDP brings heightened security and improved funconality. It is
more secure than Wiegand and supports AES-128 encrypon.
OSDP Wire Specificaon - Four (4) conductor twisted pair overall shield is
recommended to remain fully TIA-485 compliant at maximum supported
baud rates and cable distances.
NOTE - It’s possible to reuse exisng Wiegand wiring for OSDP; however,
using simple stranded cable typical of Wiegand readers generally does not
meet the RS485 twisted pair recommendaons.
OSDP Mul-Drop - Mul-drop gives you the capability to accommodate
many readers by running one length of 4-conductor cable, eliminang 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 Pedestal, refer to wiring
diagrams at prodatakey.zendesk.com
Programming - Aer the Red Pedestal controller has been installed, full
configuraon and system programming will be performed within the pdk io
soware. Full configuraon instrucons can be found in the programming
manual at prodatakey.zendesk.com
Reader Compability - 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
cerficaons. For UL listed installaons, all cable runs must be less than 30
meters (98.5’)
