Defining the Kantech Telephone Entry System parameters

  1. From the KTES window, select the Kantech Telephone Entry System tab.
  2. Specify the General options :
    • Serial number : The serial number is unique to eachKTES . It is used for communication between the KTESand the EntraPass software. Default value is 00000000.
    • Enable fail-soft delay : Enter the delay before EntraPass enters fail-soft mode and consider communication with the KTES lost . Values range from 10 secs to 4 min:15 secs. Default value is 45 secs.
    • EOL resistor : This parameter defines the input termination as:None for no end-of-line resistor (dry contact), Singlefor single end-of-line resistor (5.6K) or Double for double end-of-line resistor (2 * 5.6K). Default value is None.
  3. Specify the Regional configuration parameters:
    • Line Type : Set this parameter to select the telephone line type used by the system. Possible values are Tone or Pulse . Default value is Tone.
      Note: For New Zealand, pulse dialling cannot be used.
    • Telephone line regional setting : The Telephone line regional setting must be set to specify which telephone line country code should be used by the KTES. Default value is USA/Canada (0). Click the drop down list to display the available countries:

    • Time base : Main time base comes from the AC power input (50 Hz or 60 Hz) for best accuracies over large operating temperatures. Time base will be automatically switched to internal Xtal in case of AC power failure. Time base can be forced to internal Xtal when DC power only or unstable AC source is used. Default value is 60Hz.
    • Line monitoring : The telephone line is monitored when busy or disconnected, when this option is selected. Default value is selected.
      Note: In order to comply with New Zealand Telepermit requirements, line sensing must be turned on.
  4. Specify the Tenant response setting :
    • Keypad key for access granted by tenant : This telephone key can be used by a tenant to grant access to a visitor. Default value is 9.
    • Keypad key for access denied by tenant : This telephone key can be used by a tenant to deny access to a visitor. Default value is *.
    • Keypad key for auxiliary relay activated by tenant : This telephone key can be used to grant access to a visitor that is using a secondary entrance. Default value is empty.
  5. Specify the Wiegand interface options:
    • Reader type : This is the Wiegand Interface output format to be sent to the KTES. Default value is KantechXSF .
    • Reader’s Driver download: Click on the "readersDriverButt.png" button to open the selection window and select a driver to download:
    • Wiegand integration with an access controller : Selecting this option indicates that the KTES is connected to an access controller. Otherwise it is operating in Standalone mode .
    • Card holder used for postal activated : This is the card number used by the KTES to generate a Wiegand code when the postal lock is activated. Default value is empty.
