Doorhone panel KDC1805

KDC1805 cassette, like the previous models, is mechanically based on the well-known keyboard design KDC1803. However, the dial panel and the electronic circuit that controls the device have been completely changed. The use of a 16-bit processor, digital signal processing and a change of the optoelectronic dial panel to strain gauge (touch - analogically to KDC3000) allowed for a significant improvement in performance compared to the original KDC1803. In comparison with KDC1803 and KDC1804 - the thickness of the applied plate has once again been increased up to 1.25 mm. This increases the mechanical resistance of the keyboard considerably. The use of the touch panel allowed for further improvement of operation and usage, compared to the one in the previous solution, which was based on infrared beams.

KDC1805 keypad panel is equipped with Braille characters (like KDC3000), making KDC1805 keyboard user-friendly for visually impaired users or for the blind people. The way it works allows the digit to be freely selected by sensing the appropriate Braille sign with a finger and then confirming its choice by applying more pressure to the keyboard. The KDC1805 keyboard is backlit, which significantly improves the comfort of night use for other users. The KDC1805 keyboard uses integrated software the same as in KDC1804L. Thanks to this, there is an identical instruction describing the operation of both keyboards. This is especially important if you want to edit the data yourself.

The KDC1805 has a built-in RFID proximity reader. Reader's antenna is hidden under the keyboard of the device and works - depending on the form of the identifier (it can be a keychain or card) from a distance of 3-7 cm. The ability to modify the software at the installation site (built-in bootloader) allows you to easily remove any errors in the control software, as well as to extend the functionality of the keyboard (e.g. with new types of data reading formats, R/W identifiers, etc.). KDC1805 can also be equipped (it is an option available on customer's request) in the DALLAS touch pen reader, working in parallel with the RFID reader. The built-in memory allows you to memorize about 1000 identifiers of both types. It is possible to increase the storage capacity to 2000 pieces or more. The memorized identifiers can be freely assigned to particular premises. It is also possible to create groups of premises or groups of identifiers. Each of such a group can be individually managed, modified or deleted from memory. There is no limit in the number of identifiers assigned to particular premises. In an extreme case, all 1000 stored identifiers can be managed under one apartment number.

Adding a microSD card connector in the device (as a standard) allows for easy data archiving and software modification. The KDC1805 keyboard has built-in editing functions that allow convenient memory management. Access to the function is protected by the installer's password exactly the same, which is used as access to programming of the control panel module (installer code). With these functions, you can add, delete, modify and check IDs. Using the "MASTER-KEY" type identifier makes it easier to access some options - e.g. to add identifiers with the assignment to the premises. "MASTER-KEY" is defined by the installer when the keyboard is installed. The interesting additional functions include the automatic addition of identifiers based on the use of the code lock function in the control panel. After activating this option (for a specific time, e.g. 24 hours), the keypad stores as correct these identifiers, that were used in conjunction with the correct use of the code lock assigned in a given apartment. However, this function requires modification of the MCD1803 module software (can be ordered separately in our company). KDC1805 keyboard has a 4-digit LED display with a 15mm mark as standard. The control system used in the keyboard, allows automatic detection of the type of control panel controlling the operation of the system - 3 or 4 digits
