ACSI 1355-7 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the ACSI 1355-7 keypad be mounted outside on an exterior door?
Yes. The 1355-7 is built for indoor and outdoor use, with a vandal and weather resistant case and touch sensitive flat keys that hold up to exposure. That makes it usable on exterior gates, loading docks and other openings where a standard indoor keypad would fail.
2) What voltage does the ACSI 1355-7 keypad run on?
It takes 10-30 VDC or 12-24 VAC and auto adjusts, with a 12/24 volt AC/DC jumper selection on the board. So it drops onto most existing low voltage access control power supplies without adding a separate transformer.
3) Will the ACSI 1355-7 keypad drive a maglock or an electric strike directly?
It is designed to control any electric locking device, and the 1355-7 carries the larger main relay: 5A form C at 24VDC with a 10A surge rating. That handles typical electric strikes, maglocks and electric latch retraction inputs without an add-on relay board. The lighter 2A relay applies to the 1355-3, 1355-4 and 1355-6 models, not the -7.
4) How many users and what code length does the ACSI 1355 keypad support?
120 users, with codes from 1 to 6 digits and repeated digits allowed. For a small commercial building, tenant suite or shop where each person gets their own code, that is enough to avoid sharing a single code. If you need several hundred credentials, look at a higher capacity unit such as the SDC 918 Series indoor keypad or the SDC 926 Series outdoor keypad, both rated for 500 users.
5) I need a keypad and a prox card reader in one unit. Is the 1355-7 it?
No. The 1355-7 is a keypad only, code entry with no card reader. For a combined keypad and proximity reader on an exterior opening, the SDC EntryCheck 920 Series is an indoor/outdoor keypad with proximity reader, and the SDC EntryCheck 923 Series is the narrow version of that for mullions and narrow stile frames.
6) What is an equivalent outdoor-rated keypad to the ACSI 1355-7 if I need more than 120 user codes?
The ACSI 1355-7 keypad is built for indoor/outdoor use with a vandal and weather resistant case and supports 120 users with codes of 1 to 6 digits. If the opening needs a larger code population, the SDC 926 Series is an outdoor digital keypad with weather protection and a 500 user capacity. Both are standalone keypads controlling an electric locking device, so the decision comes down to how many individual codes the site has to carry.
7) Can the ACSI 1355-7 read proximity cards, or do I need a different unit?
The ACSI 1355-7 is a digital keypad - access is granted by a 1 to 6 digit code entered on its touch sensitive flat keys, with 120 user capability. If the site wants credentials as well as codes, the SDC EntryCheck 920 Series is an indoor/outdoor digital keypad with an integrated proximity reader, and the SDC EntryCheck 923 Series offers the same keypad plus proximity reader in a narrow indoor/outdoor format. A proximity credential will not work on the 1355-7.
8) What should I use instead of the ACSI 1355-7 on a narrow aluminum storefront stile?
The ACSI 1355-7 is a full-size keypad in a vandal and weather resistant case, which may not land cleanly on a narrow mullion or door stile. For that opening the SDC EntryCheck 923 Series is a narrow digital keypad with proximity reader rated for indoor/outdoor access control. Verify the stile width against the housing before committing either way.
9) Do I need a separate programmer or a PC to set up the 1355-7?
No. It is keypad programmable, so codes and settings are entered at the unit itself, and non-volatile memory keeps the codes and instructions if power is lost. There is nothing to reprogram after an outage.
10) How long does the ACSI 1355-7 hold the door unlocked after a valid code?
Relock delay is adjustable from 1 to 90 seconds on the 1355-7. The main relay also supports ON/OFF latching, so you can toggle a door to stay unlocked during business hours and toggle it back. If you need a longer hold than 90 seconds, the 1355-6 in the same series goes to 255 seconds but uses the 2A relay.
11) Does this keypad have an input for a request-to-exit device?
Yes, there is a request-to-exit switch input, so a push button, exit device switch or motion sensor on the egress side can release the lock without a code. The 1355-7 also has LED status indicators and a panic output, plus a remote alarm panel interface so the keypad can signal a monitoring panel.
12) How is the ACSI 1355-7 different from the other models in the 1355 Series?
All 1355 Series keypads are standalone digital keypads for electric locking devices; the differences are in the electronics. The 1355-7 has the 5A form C relay, LED status indicators, a panic output and a 1-90 second relock delay. The 1355-3, -4 and -6 use a 2A relay; the 1355-4 has no LED indicators; the 1355-5 runs 12-24VAC/DC rather than the auto-adjusting range; and the 1355-5 and -6 have no panic output.
13) What is a simpler standalone alternative to the ACSI 1355-7 for a single interior door?
If the opening is indoors and you do not need the weather resistant case, the Securitron DK-12 stand alone digital keypad covers a single door with code entry only, and the SDC 918 Series is an indoor digital keypad with 500 user capacity. Keep the 1355-7 where the reader is exposed to weather or abuse.
14) I only need a keypad inside a heated corridor - is there a simpler option than the ACSI 1355-7?
The ACSI 1355-7 carries a vandal and weather resistant case for indoor/outdoor mounting, which is capability you are paying for and not using on a protected interior door. For strictly interior work the SDC 918 Series is an indoor digital access control keypad with a 500 user capacity. Choose the 1355-7 when the keypad is exposed to weather or abuse; choose the indoor 918 when it is not.
15) Is the Securitron DK-12 a substitute for the ACSI 1355-7?
Both are standalone digital keypads that control an electric locking device without a panel. The ACSI 1355-7 is specified for indoor/outdoor duty with a vandal and weather resistant case, 120 users, a request-to-exit switch input, panic output, and a 1 to 90 second adjustable relock delay. The Securitron DK-12 is a stand alone digital keypad as well. Confirm the DK-12 suits the exposure and auxiliary inputs your opening needs before treating it as a one-for-one swap.
16) My 1355-7 needs a 5A relay for the locking device - do the other models in the series match?
The ACSI 1355-7 uses a main relay rated 5A, form C at 24VDC with a 10A surge, while the 1355-3, 1355-4 and 1355-6 in the same 1355 Series drop to 2A. If you are switching a lock that needs the higher contact rating, stay with the 1355-7 rather than moving down the series. Among other brands, the SDC 926 Series is an outdoor keypad option, but verify its relay rating against your lock before substituting.
17) Is the ACSI 1355 keypad suitable for an apartment building or is it strictly industrial?
Both. The 1355 Series is used in commercial, industrial and residential applications, and it is catalogued as a commercial grade device. For property managers that means one keypad type can cover a storage room, a rear service door and a multi-family entry, with each resident or tech on a separate code.
