**SDC INST-918 EntryCheck Indoor Proximity Integrated Digital Keypads Instruction Manual
**
The 918 EntryCheck™ is a digital keyless entry system designed for access control applications. The keypad is mounted on a rugged, stainless steel faceplate and is designed to be mounted in a standard single-gang electrical box. The indoor backlit keys have bright, easy-to-read graphics.
Up to 500 entry codes, from 1 to 6 digits in length, can be programmed. They can activate one or both of the relay outputs. The programmable “anti- passback” feature prevents using the same code again before the programmed time elapses.
All system indicators are long-lasting, solid state LEDs. Two indicators show the status of the entry system. The left indicator lights red to indicate power, then turns green when access is granted. The right indicator lights yellow when the keypad is in “lockout” condition (from too many incorrect code entries). The yellow LED flashes when the keypad is in programming mode. An internal sounder beeps when each key is pressed. An internal jumper sets the sounder volume high or low
The SENSE input can be used two ways. If programmed for “door sense” the input is wired to a normally closed door contact switch to detect when the door is opened or closed. Forced entry or door ajar situations can then be detected. When using a door contact switch, the “Auto-relock” feature will prevent “tailgating” by turning off the Main Relay output immediately when the door is closed after access has been granted. If the SENSE input is programmed for “inhibit”, the input can be wired to a “service” switch or automatic timer that will disable the Main Relay when required.
The REQUEST-TO-EXIT input may be wired to a pushbutton to provide codeless activation of Main Relay, Auxiliary Relay, Output #3 or Output #4 (programmable).
The ALARM SHUNT output activates when access is granted. This output can be wired to shunt alarm contacts on the access door/gate to prevent triggering of an alarm when authorized access occurs.
The 918 EntryCheck™ is powered from a 12/24VDC or AC source. The EEPROM memory retains all entry codes and programming, even without power. An internal jumper is provided to reset the master code. The Main Relay has a 5 Amp capacity. The Auxiliary Relay has a 2 Amp capacity. Two solid state outputs, capable of switching 100 mA to common, are programmable to signal forced entry, door ajar, lockout, alarm circuit shunting, request-to-exit, and keypad active conditions.

QuickStart Programming
To enter Programming Mode, enter #9# Master Code#. The yellow indicator will blink slowly showing that the 918 EntryCheck™ is in programming mode. Use the option codes to program the each function. After the new data entry is complete for each function , the yellow indicator will flash quickly while the data is being stored and the green indicator will light briefly if the programming has been accepted. The red indicator will light if any programming data is entered incorrectly or the function is rejected. If a red indicator is seen, the entire function (option code + data) will have to be fully re- entered.
Program the first user code
- Step 1. Enter: #9# 123456# Enter the program mode (default master code = 123456)
- Step 2. Enter: 03# 4# Set the entry code length to 4 digits
- Step 3. Enter: 21# 5# Set the main relay activate time to 5 sec.
- Step 4. Enter: 01# 9876# 9876# 1# Set user code ‘9876’ to activate the main relay
- Step 5. Enter: # Exit programming mode
**
Test your new user code
Enter user code ‘9876’. After pressing the last digit, the green indicator
should illuminate, and the main relay should activate and the door should
unlock for 5 seconds.
Adding additional user codes
Once the code length and relay time have been set you do not need to set them each time you additional users.
To add additional users:
- Step 1. Enter: #9# 123456# Enter the program mode (default master code)
- Step 2. Enter: 01# 2222# 2222# 1# Set user code ‘2222’ to activate the main relay
- Step 3. Enter: 01# 3333# 3333# 1# Set user code ‘3333’ to activate the main relay
- Step 4. Enter: ** # Exit programming mode
Deleting a user code
To delete a user:
- Step 1. Enter: #9# 123456# Enter the program mode (default master code)
- Step 2. Enter: 02# 3333# 3333# User code ‘3333’ has been deleted.
- Step . Enter: # Exit programming mode
CAUTION
IF THE UNIT IS AC POWERED, MAKE SURE THAT THE SECONDARY OF THE SYSTEM IS
ISOLATED FROM EARTH GROUND
KEYPAD WIRING
See Fig. 3 for an example of a typical door installation. The keypad is mounted adjacent to the door. A fail-secure electric door strike is mounted in the door jamb to release the door lock. A door contact switch is mounted on top of the door jamb for detecting when the door is open.
Use the following steps to wire the keypad. Refer to the wiring diagram shown in Fig. 4 to assist in the wiring.
Note: Up to 300 feet of 18 AWG wire can be run for power, use larger
wire for longer runs. Use 22 AWG or larger (depending on load) for other
connections.
Relay Output
- Install a low voltage electric door strike for unlocking the door.
- Route two wires between the door strike and the keypad box.
Connect the (+) door strike wire to the keypad’s MAIN RELAY N.O.
terminal (TB1 #3). Connect the other door strike wire to the
keypad’s AC/DC (-) terminal (TB1 #2). Connect a wire between the
keypad’s AC/DC (+) terminal (TB1 #1) and the MAIN RELAY COM
terminal (TB1 #4)
Keypad Power
- Choose a location for the power supply or transformer.
- Route two wires between the door strike and the keypad box. Connect the power supply’s output terminals to the keypad’s AC/DC input terminals (TB1 #1 (+) & #2(-)). Observe wiring polarity if using DC.
Caution: If the unit is AC powered, make sure the secondary of the system transformer is isolated from earth ground.
Earth Ground
- To avoid damage to the unit from static discharges, connect the EARTH GROUND black wire E5 to a good earth grounding point. Suggested wiring size is 18 AWG for earth ground.
Sense Input
Note: SENSE terminal E8 (gray wire) can be programmed for either a
door sense or inhibit input. Both features cannot be used at the same
time.
- To use the door sense feature to detect forced entry or door ajar conditions, install a normally closed door switch on the door and route two wires from the switch to the keypad box. Connect the door switch to the keypad’s SENSE terminal (gray wire E8) and COM terminal
- If an inhibit switch or timer is going to be used for temporarily disabling the keypad, route two wires from the switch or timer to the keypad box. Connect the inhibit switch/timer normally open terminals to the keypad’s SENSE (gray wire E8) and COM terminal (any available black wire).
Request-to-Exit Input (wiring shown on Fig. 4)
- If a request-to-exit pushbutton is going to be used, route two wires from the keypad box to a normally open pushbutton mounted on the secure side of the door. Connect the wires to the pushbutton and to the keypad’s REX (violet wire E6) and COM terminal (any available black wire).
Solid State Outputs
The two solid state outputs (Outputs #3 & #4) can be programmed to activate
during various conditions. These outputs can be used to activate indicators or
sounders. See fig. 5 for wiring examples using the solid state outputs.

BASIC PROGRAMMING
When the 918 EntryCheck™ is in Programming Mode, the yellow indicator will blink slowly. This shows that the 918 is ready to accept new programming data. Use the programming commands on the following three pages to enter new data. After a data entry command is complete, the yellow indicator will flash rapidly while the data is being stored. The green indicator will light if the data is accepted. The red indicator will light if any programming data is entered incorrectly, and the command will have to be fully re-entered.
-
Entering Programming Mode
The 6-digit Master Programming Code (default = 123456) is used to enter Programming Mode.
Press: # 9 # Master Code#
Master Code = the current 6-digit Master Programming Code -
Exiting Programming Mode
Press: #
The red indicator will light after exiting Programming Mode
Note: The 918 will automatically exit Programming Mode after two minutes of inactivity -
Re-entering a Command After a Mistake
If the red indicator lights, signaling an incorrect entry, or an
incorrect key is pressed during programming, to clear the
keypad and re-enter the command:
Press: * 9 # -
Setting Entry Code Length Default: 4 digits
Press: 0 3 # Length #
Length = 1-6 for entry code length
Note: If the Entry Code Length is going to be changed from the factory default of 4 digits, make this change first before programming any entry codes. -
Adding a New Entry Code
Press: 0 1 # Code # Code # Relay #
Code=The new entry code: 1-999999, depending on code length
Relay=Relay output entry code will activate:
1=Main Relay 2=Auxiliary Relay 3=Both Relays
10=Relay #1, toggled 20=Relay #2, toggled 30=both Relays toggled
12=Relay #1 toggled; Relay #2 timed open
21=Relay #1 timed open; Relay #2 toggled
The yellow indicator will flash quickly while the 918 searches its memory for available space and duplicate entries. The green indicator will light when the new code is stored.
If the new entry code chosen is already being used for another entry code, the red indicator will light. A new unique code needs to be entered.
Note: Leading zeros (zeros before the code number, i.e.0001) do not need to be entered when programming a new code. The 918 will internally add any zeros to fill digits determined by the entry code length setting. Leading zeros will have to be entered by the user when entering their code to gain access.
-
Typical Programming Example
Program all normal entry codes to use the Main Relay (Relay #1), and only Relay #1 as the output relay. See the following example that sets entry codes 1234 for normal, timed entry and 5678 for toggle operation.
Press: 0 1 # 1 2 3 4 # 1 2 3 4 # 1 #
01=Programming Step; 1234=Entry Code; 1=Main Relay
Press: 0 1 # 5 6 7 8 # 5 6 7 8 # 10 #
01=Programming Step; 5678=Entry Code; 10=Toggle Main Relay -
Programming the 918 To Hold the Output for an Extended Period of Time (e.g., Normal Business Hours)
SDC’s EntryCheck™ products have a programmable “Toggle Mode” available for each relay. When an output is programmed for Toggle Mode, the output alternates from OFF to ON or from ON to OFF each time it is activated. When output is toggled on, the green LED flashes until toggled off. The rules for a toggle output are:
If the output is OFF, entering a toggle code will turn ON the selected relay, and stay on until the next activation of a toggle code. NOTE: Entering a timed code OR activating the REX input will not turn off a relay that has been toggled ON.
If the output is ON, entering a toggle code will turn OFF the selected relay and stay off until the next activation of a toggle code, timed code, or REX. -
Erasing a Single Entry Code
Press: 0 2 # Code # Code #
Code=The entry code to delete
The yellow indicator will flash quickly while the 918 searches its memory for the code to erase. The green indicator will light when the code is erased. -
Changing the 6-Digit Master Programming Code
Press: 9 8 # Master Code # Master Code #
Master Code=The new 6-digit Master Programming Code
New master code: ____ -

WARNING: PERFORMING THIS COMMAND WILL REMOVE ALL ENTRY CODES FROM THE MEMORY. THE MASTER CODE WILL NOT BE RESET.
Press: 9 7 # 0 0 0 0 0 0 # 0 0 0 0 0 0 #
Note: The green indicator will light while the memory is being erased. This may take up to 15 seconds.
ADDITIONAL PROGRAMMING OPTIONS
There are several 918 EntryCheck™ programming options. For most installations, the basic programming on the previous page is sufficient.
-
Select Door Sense or Inhibit Input Default: Door Sense
The input (gray wire) can be programmed for DOOR SENSE or INHIBIT.
Press: 1 0 # Input #
Input=0 for Door Sense; =1 for Inhibit
When programmed for DOOR SENSE, if an open condition on the input occurs before access is granted (with an entry code or with the request-to-enter input) a FORCED ENTRY output will occur. If an open condition remains beyond the door ajar time following a valid relay activation for access, a DOOR AJAR output will occur.
When programmed for INHIBIT, a closed condition on the input will prevent Relay #1 from activating when access is requested with an entry code. This mode is typically used with an external timer to disable the access device at certain times. -
