Velbus –Legen Heirweg 33, BE-9890 Gavere, Belgium –tel. [phone] –e-mail: [e-mail] –www.velbus.eu PN-VMBKP-ed1-A4
Description
The VMBKP is a vandal-resistant and weatherproof keypad. It combines a digital keypad and proximity EM card reader in
one unit.
The keypad has been designed for full feature access control in a Velbus home automation system. It features two User
Groups, with up to 1,000 users for User Group 1 and 100 users for User Group 2. Per User Group different actions can
be configured (e.g. controlling different door locks, different time settings, …). Each user can be configured to use either
a code, an EM Card, or a combination of both. See “Security level of the operation media” on p. 13 for more details.
In the Velbus configuration software VelbusLink the keypad appears with two input channels “User group 1” and “User
group 2”, and a “Tamper alarm” channel.
The keypad can accommodate up to 70 program steps to automatically operate, lock and unlock User Group channels,
including day, week and year programs and an astronomical clock (sunrise and sunset times).
The User group channels that appear in VelbusLink will typically be used to activate a magnetic door lock connected to a
Velbus relay. The Tamper channel can control a Velbus relay which in turn is connected to e.g. a siren or the input of an
alarm system.
Apart from simple door opening using User Codes and/or EM Cards, the following advanced features are also available.

Velbus –Legen Heirweg 33, BE-9890 Gavere, Belgium –tel. [phone] –e-mail: [e-mail] –www.velbus.eu PN-VMBKP-ed1-A4
Egress button
The Egress button is a button placed inside the building that allows users to open the door from the inside without
entering a code or presenting an EM Card. The Egress button has advanced options like optional delays, beeping sounds
and alarms. For more information, see EG IN (Egress Input)” on p.9 and “Intelligent Egress Button –A unique feature of
the keypad” on p.32.
Visitor codes
Visitor codes are codes that can only be used once, or that expire after a certain time. See “Visitor codes (for user group
channel 1 only) (location 40)” on p.24.
Duress codes
Duress codes are codes that grant access just like normal codes, but that secretly also trigger an alarm. They are
typically used when a user is forced to enter their code. The door opens normally, but unbeknown to the attacker, other
security measures can be taken (e.g. placing an automatic call, arming an alarm system, blocking other entrances, …).
See “DUR O/P (Duress Output)” on p.9 and “Duress codes (for user groups 1 & 2) (locations 41 & 42)” on p.26.
Door sensor
A door sensor (e.g. a magnetic switch) can be connected to the DOOR SENS connector.
This allows for advanced functions like door forced open warning, door propped up warning, and door auto relock. For
more information see “DOOR SENS (Door Position Sensing Input –Normally Closed)” on p.9, “Door forced open warning
(location 80)” on p.31, “Door propped-up warning (location 81)” on p.31 and “Door sens” on p.40.
Tamper alarm
When the keypad’s cover is removed from its base, the Tamper channel becomes “pressed” until the cover is placed
back, and actions can be executed (e.g. locking the keypad, starting a siren, switching on a light, …). These actions are
configured in the configuration software VelbusLink. (See the Velbus Installation Guide Part 2: Configuration on
www.velbus.eu for more information).
Configurable Master Code
The Master Code is the code that needs to be entered in order to configure User codes, Cards, and other settings
explained in the following chapters. The Master Code can be 4 to 8 digits long, and can be chosen by the owner. For
more information, see “Master code (Location 01)” on p.18.
DAP code (Direct Access to Programming)
In case the Master Code would be forgotten, the keypad can be put in programming mode using the DAP code. For
safety reasons, the DAP code only works during the power-up delay (the first minute after power is applied). See “Direct
Access to Programming mode with “DAP” code -- 2 8 2 8” on p.16.
Inhibition
User Groups 1 and 2 can be temporarily locked using Velbus actions and program steps. These are configured in the
VelbusLink software. (See the Velbus Installation Guide Part 2: Configuration on www.velbus.eu for more information).
Apart from this, there is also a hardware connection, O/P 1 INH, that, when closed, inhibits User Group 1. See “O/P 1
INH (User Group 1 Inhibit Control Input –Normally Open)” on p. 9. This hardware inhibition is executed locally in the
keypad and is not communicated to the rest of the Velbus system. It can be controlled by a directly connected button,
alarm system output, etc. The hardware inhibition can be paused or overruled by the Super User codes. See “Super user
code (Location 02)” on p. 18.

Overview of connection terminals
Velbus connections (required) (-, +, L, H)
The connector for the Velbus bus cable. The –and + connections are for the 15±3VDC power supply. The L and H
connections are for the Velbus data communication.
Next to the Velbus connection terminal there is also a Velbus CAN terminator switch, marked “TERM”. According to the
position of the VMBKP in the Velbus installation, this terminator may need to be closed. Please consult the Velbus
Installation Guides on www.velbus.eu for more information on the Velbus system and on the CAN terminators.
Other connections (optional/advanced)
ALM O/P (Alarm Output)
An NPN transistor open collector output with a maximum power rating of 24VDC/100mA sink. It is equivalent to an N.O.
(Normally Open) terminal referring to ground. It is designed for triggering a N.O. protection zone of an alarm system. It
can also be used to drive a low power device, such as a relay or a low power control input for other equipment.
DUR O/P (Duress Output)
An NPN transistor open collector output with a maximum power rating of 24VDC/100mA sink. It is equivalent to an N.O.
(Normally Open) terminal switching to (-) ground after the Duress Code is entered. It can be used e.g. to trigger an alarm
zone of a security system or turn on a buzzer to notify a guard.
O/P 1 INH (User Group 1 Inhibit Control Input –Normally Open)
A Normally Open (N.O.) sensing input point for controlling User group 1. With this terminal connecting to (-) ground, the
Egress Button and the PINs and Cards for User Group 1 are all disabled.
NOTES:
•This inhibit function does not overrule the Duress Codes and the Super User Codes. They are always valid.
•This inhibit function is a hardware feature of the keypad, not to be confused with the VelbusLink “inhibit”
actions. These function independently of each other.
EG IN (Egress Input)
A Normally Open (N.O.) input terminal referring to (-) ground. A normally open button connected to this input can
activate the User Group 1 channel just like using Codes/Cards.
An egress button is usually installed inside the house near the door. More than one egress button can be connected in
parallel to this terminal. Leave this terminal open if not used.
See “Intelligent Egress Button –A unique feature of the keypad” on p.32 for more information about the Egress Button
with programmable features.
(-) GND (Common ground)
A grounding point that is common with the –input of the Velbus bus connection.
DOOR SENS (Door Position Sensing Input –Normally Closed)
A Normally Closed (N.C.) sensing point referring to (-) ground. By connecting a magnetic door sensor to this input, it
monitors the open or closed status of the door. Connect this input with a wire to (-) ground if not used (factory default).

Velbus –Legen Heirweg 33, BE-9890 Gavere, Belgium –tel. [phone] –e-mail: [e-mail] –www.velbus.eu PN-VMBKP-ed1-A4
It can be used for the following functions:
Door Auto Re-lock
The system immediately deactivates the User Group 1 channel when the door is closed again, without waiting for the
end of the programmed duration for User Group 1
1
. This prevents unwanted “tailgate” entry. The Door Auto Re-lock
function is automatically active when a sensor is connected to the DOOR SENS input, no configuration is required.
Door Forced Open Warning
The keypad generates a “door forced open” warning (beeps and closing of the ALM O/P) when the door is forced open
without a valid user Code, Card or egress button push. The warning lasts for the programmed duration (1-999 sec). It
can be stopped with a User Code or card for User Group 1 at any time. See “Door forced open warning (location 80)” on
p.31 for more information.
Door Propped-up Warning
The keypad generates propped-up warning beeps when the door is left open longer than the programmed allowable
delay. The warning will last as long as the door remains open, until it is closed again. See “Door propped-up warning
(location 81)” on p.31 for more information.
INT LOCK
Not applicable.
DATA I/O
Not applicable.
TAMPER N.C. (Tamper Switch Normally Closed Contact)
Reserved by the Velbus system. (This dry contact is closed while the keypad is secured on is box, and open while the
keypad is separated from the box. The corresponding Velbus “tamper alarm” channel is “released” while the keypad is
secure on its box and “pressed” while the keypad is separated from the box.)

General concepts
Criteria for codes and cards
Prime Codes
The prime codes include the a) User Codes, b) Master Code, c) Duress Codes, d) Super User Codes, e) Common User
Codes and f) Visitor Codes. All these codes MUST be unique. It is not allowed to repeat a prime code for a second
function.
All the codes in this system can be 4-8 digits for Manual Entry Mode. For Auto Entry Mode all codes need to have the
same length as the Master Code. See “User code entry mode –Auto or manual (location 70)” on p.29 for more
information.
Prime Cards
All the User Cards are prime cards. They cannot be used for a second function. E.g. if a card was programmed for
operating User Group 1, is not allowed to use it also for User Group 2.
The cards need to be 125Khz proximity EM cards.
Secondary User Codes
A Secondary User Code is used to enhance the security of a user card. A Secondary User Code is a code that must be
entered after presenting the card. The keypad requires both card and code to grant access. The secondary code can be
repeated for a group of cards, or it can be unique with one code for one card.
NOTE: The keypad will reject repeated use of prime cards or prime codes while programming and indicate this with a
long beep.
Security level of the operation media
The keypad provides 5 operation modes for different security levels. For more information on the configuration of
these, see “User codes / cards for User Groups 1 & 2 (locations 10 & 20)” on p.20.
1) EM Card Only –Operation Mode 1
A general way for access control: simply present a card to open the door. This security level is moderate, but it is user
convenient.
2) User Code Only –Operation Mode 2
A general way for access control: simply enter a code to open the door. This security level is moderate, but it is user
convenient.
3a) EM Card + Unique Secondary User Code –Operation Mode 3 (using a Unique Secondary User Code for each
user)
In this operation mode, with each Card a unique Secondary Code is associated. This prevents anyone else from gaining
entry by using a lost Card. This operation mode is ideal for areas that need a high security level.
This operation mode can also report a Duress Alarm (close the DUR O/P) when the Duress Code is entered instead of the
unique Secondary User Code. This is useful to trigger a silent alarm when the user is forced to open the door. See
“Duress codes (for user groups 1 & 2) (locations 41 & 42)” on p.26 for more information.

14
Velbus –Legen Heirweg 33, BE-9890 Gavere, Belgium –tel. [phone] –e-mail: [e-mail] –www.velbus.eu PN-VMBKP-ed1-A4
3b) EM Card + Group Secondary User Code –Operation Mode 3 (using the same Secondary User Code for
various users)
A Secondary User Code can be repeatedly used for a group of cards. The owner can for instance make a unique
department code for each department in a company. Only the staff of the department holding a card and knowing the
code is granted access. This approach increases the departmental security and prevents a lost card being used by
another group of people in the company to gain access.
This operation mode can also report a Duress Alarm (close the DUR O/P) when the Duress Code is entered instead of the
unique Secondary User Code. This is useful to trigger a silent alarm when the user is forced to open the door. See
“Duress codes (for user groups 1 & 2) (locations 41 & 42)” on p.26 for more information.
4) EM Card + Common User Code –Operation Mode 4
The keypad requires both a Card and a Common User Code to grant entry. A Common User Code is a user code for all
the cards. The security level is higher than just a card or a user code alone.
This operation mode can also report a Duress Alarm (close the DUR O/P) when the Duress Code is entered instead of the
unique Secondary User Code. This is useful to trigger a silent alarm when the user is forced to open the door. See
“Duress codes (for user groups 1 & 2) (locations 41 & 42)” on p.26 for more information.

List of user information
To avoid confusion and for programming convenience, we suggest making a list of the user information and keeping this
for future reference. See the VMBKP Quickstart Guide (delivered with the VMBKP, or free download on www.velbus.eu)
for an example and a template.

Programming & operation
NOTE: For reference, the VelbusLink configuration screen for the VMBKP contains a “programming code generator”
section. This useful tool will present you with the codes you need to enter on the keypad. It does not send the codes to
the keypad however, these need to be manually entered using the physical buttons on the keypad.
Power-up the keypad
The keypad has a power-up delay of 1 minute after power has been applied. This is the time frame designed for setting
the keypad to programming mode with the DAP (Direct Access to Programming) code. See “DAP CODE – 2 8 2 8” below
for more information.
1. The keypad emits continuous beeps for 1 minute after power-up, and the amber LED is flashing.
2. The power-up delay can be stopped instantly with 1 2 # if the delay beep is found annoying and setting the
keypad to programming mode with the DAP code is not required.
3. The keypad will automatically set itself to Normal Operation Mode after the 1 minute power-up delay has
expired or has been stopped with 1 2 #.
Set the keypad in programming mode using the Master Code
In order to program the keypad, it needs to be set in programming mode first.
When the keypad is in normal operation after the power-up delay, it can be set in programming mode by entering the
Master Code and validating it with * *.
Master code Validation
0 0 0 0 * *
For the owner’s convenience in programming the first time, a Master Code 0 0 0 0 has been stored in the keypad upon
leaving the factory. This is NOT a default code. For security reasons, the owner should as soon as possible replace this
Master Code with a personal one. See “Master code (Location 01)” on p.18 for more information.
The Center LED (amber) is ON after the keypad confirms programming mode with 2 beeps.
DO NOT power off the keypad while it is in programming mode. Otherwise, the data in the keypad’s memory may
become corrupted.
Direct Access to Programming mode with “DAP” code -- 2 8 2 8
In case the Master Code is forgotten, apply the following procedure to set the keypad into programming mode with the
DAP code:
1. Switch OFF the power for 1 minute to ensure that the keypad is fully discharged.
2. Switch ON power again. The keypad is in Power-up Mode for 1 minute. The buzzer emits beeps and the Status
LED is flashing. This is the only time frame to accept the DAP code.
3. Press the Egress Button (the button connecting EG IN and (-)GND) once to enable the keypad for accepting the
DAP code. The power-up beep stops after the Egress Button is pressed.
4. Key in the DAP code 2 8 2 8 and validate it with * *. The Status LED is ON and the keypad is in programming
mode like when using the Master Code. It is ready to accept new programming data until you exit programming
mode.

5. Program a new Master Code to replace the old one. See See “Master code (Location 01)” on p.18 for more
information.
NOTE: The keypad will set itself to normal operation mode 1 minute after power-up if the Egress Button is not pressed
and the DAP code is not keyed in. To set keypad back to power-up mode, repeat steps 1-4.
Refresh the system with the Refreshing Code --- 9 9 9 9
The keypad can be refreshed (cleaning all the programmed data and setting it back to default values, except the Master
Code).
Refreshing code Validation
9 9 9 9 * *
NOTES:
a. Make sure that refreshing the system is really required before entering the Refreshing Code.
b. Refreshing may take a few minutes. The status LED (amber) keeps flashing during refreshing.
c. The keypad is back to its default value after refreshing. Reprogramming of the desired values is necessary.

Operation and functions of the Super User Code
1. Operate User Group Channels 1 and 2
The Super User Code operates the User Group 1 and 2 channels just like a normal User Code. Simply enter the Super
User Code, followed by # and the number of the desired User Group channel.
SUPER USER CODE # 1: Activate User Group 1 channel
SUPER USER CODE # 2: Activate User Group 2 channel
2. Optional Functions Controlled by Super User Code for User Group 1
Apart from controlling the two User Group Channels 1 and 2, the Super User Code can also be used to enable the
following optional functions controlling User Group 1 for user convenience or security enhancement.
The Super User Code and Egress Button are excluded from any hardware inhibition
3
and lockup
4
functions; for safety
reasons they are valid for User Group channel activation at any time.
A. Override the User Group 1 channel (keep door unlocked)
The User Group 1 channel is usually for door lock control. In some situations, the door may need to be unlocked for a
period of time to allow door opening without User Codes or EM Cards. This function is toggled with the following code
entry.
SUPER USER CODE # 7: the door is unlocked, enter this code again to cancel unlocking and return to normal operation
NOTE:
•The door is unlocked while the function is enabled. The “User Group 1”LED (Green) turns ON.
•Do not forget to stop this function after use (by entering the same code again) because the door will remain
unlocked.
•Fail-secure electric locks require power to maintain an unlocked condition. Prolonged periods of continuous
unlocking may damage them. This function is not recommended for fail-secure electric locks.

REMARK:
While SUPER USER CODE # 7 is in operation to maintain the door unlocked, the functions that rely on the door sensor
(such as a magnetic contact)
5
and the User Codes for User Group 1 are all temporarily suspended until SUPER USER
CODE # 7 is entered again to release the door hold function.
The following are the temporarily suspended functions:
•Door Auto-relock (see “Door Auto Relock”on p.40)
•Door Forced Open Warning (see “Door forced open warning (location 80)” on p.31)
•Door Propped-up Warning (see “Door propped-up warning (location 81)” on p.31)
•Door Opening Alarm (see “Egress mode, delay, warning beep and alarm (location 90)” on p.33)
•All User Codes including the Super User Code for User Group 1
•Duress Output activated by The Duress Code for User Group 1 (see “DUR O/P (Duress Output)” on p.9)
Common user codes for User Groups 1 & 2 (locations 03 & 04)
The Common User Codes 1 and 2 are used for enhancing the security level of the User Group 1 and 2 channels
respectively. See Operation Mode 4 on p. 20 and “Security level of the operation media” on p. 13 for more information.
NOTE: a Common User Code alone can NOT operate the User Group channels directly.
