rise to electronic noise problems in certain environments.  It should therefore be avoided where 
possible and in no case should cable length exceed 

30 ft. (10 meters).

 

Cable entry

 to the CPU board enclosure can be handled in one of two ways.  There is a hole in 

the bottom of the enclosure, the use of which creates the most attractive installation as the cable 
is completely hidden.  Alternately, there is a side knockout in the enclosure cover which permits 
surface mounting of the cable.  

The side knockout also permits a wiring technique which is 

convenient when the CPU board enclosure is to be mounted in an awkward location such 
as above a drop ceiling

.  You can pop the board itself out of its snap track and make all your 

connections with the board in your hands.  The board is then re-snapped into the plastic trak.  
The enclosure cover snaps on with the wires emerging from the side knockout.  If you use this 
technique, 

avoid touching the components or rear pins on the board as much as possible

.  

Static electricity can destroy the processor.  Also when you 

snap the board back

 in its track, 

make sure it’s securely done.  Sometimes you need to squeeze the outer lips of the track to 
insure that the board edges are really seated in the slot. 

3.  WIRING 

3.1  POWER, DATA AND KEYPAD WIRING 

Figure 2 shows the DK-26W CPU Board.  You will make connections to the 18 terminals as 
shown in the drawing and either leave the jumper block in the factory set position (connects pins 
2 and 3) if you plan to power the DK-26W with 12 VDC or move the jumper to connect pins 1 
and 2 if you will be using 5 VDC.  Note that 

operation at 12 volts

 with the jumper block in the 5 

volt position 

can damage the unit

Note that 

the DK-26W will not operate on AC power

.  It will, however, accept 

full wave 

rectified DC power

 (trans bridge rectifier) 

when it is being powered by 12 VDC

.  

When it is being powered by 

5 VDC, the voltage must be regulated 

(+/- 1/2 volt).  Be sure to 

observe polarity

 when you power the DK-26W. 

There are 12 color coded wires in the keypad cable.  Refer to Figure 2 and connect each wire to 
the indicated terminal on the CPU Board.  No other connections may be made to these 
terminals (except if two keypads are used with one CPU board). 

The DK-26W will draw a maximum of 

30 mA at 5 VDC or 12 VDC

.

 

The Weigand output terminals: Data 0 and Data 1 connect to the appropriate inputs of the 
access control system.  The 

wire run maximum distance

 for reliable operation depends on the 

wire gauge.  A guide line is 200 ft. for 22 gauge; 300 ft. for 20 gauge and 500 ft. for 18 gauge.
