Command Access VDREEKIT-ET – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the Command Access VDREEKIT-ET request to enter switch kit actually do on a Von Duprin 996L trim?
It adds a request-to-enter switch to Von Duprin 996L trim in the field, so turning the lever signals your access control system that someone is entering from the outside. The switch is SPDT rated 0.5A at 24VAC, and the kit ships with the REE bracket (part #50843) plus a color code identification sticker. It is a field-installed component, not a complete lock or exit device, so the 996L trim has to already be on the door.
2) Will the VDREEKIT-ET switch kit fit trim other than Von Duprin 996L?
No. The VDREEKIT-ET is built for Von Duprin 996L trim specifically, and the REE bracket in the kit is cut for that trim. If your opening has a different Von Duprin trim or another manufacturer's lever trim, this is the wrong kit.
3) How do I wire a Command Access REE switch kit into my access control panel?
Three leads, color coded: green is common, blue is normally open, gray is normally closed. Because it is SPDT, you can take either the NO or the NC leg depending on whether your panel wants a closing or an opening contact on entry. Keep the load inside 0.5A at 24VAC, so for anything heavier (a maglock coil, a strike) switch a relay with it rather than the load itself. A color code sticker is in the box for labeling at the junction.
4) Is the RCI 9500/9501 mortise pin transfer an alternative to the Command Access VDREEKIT-ET request to enter switch kit?
No. The VDREEKIT-ET is a request to enter switch kit that field-installs into Von Duprin 996L trim, using an SPDT switch rated 0.5A at 24VAC with green common, blue normally open and gray normally closed leads plus the REE bracket, part 50843. The RCI 9500/9501 is a mortise pin transfer rated 1.5A at 24VAC with a tamper-resistant design, which carries power across the hinge edge between frame and door leaf. One signals that the trim has been operated; the other is the path the wiring takes to reach the door. An opening using the VDREEKIT-ET switch typically still needs a transfer device to get those leads off the door.
5) I need a signal when someone tries to exit, not enter. Does the Command Access request to enter switch kit do that?
The Command Access VDREEKIT-ET is a request to enter kit: the SPDT switch mounts to Von Duprin 996L trim, so it reports operation of the outside trim. For sensing the egress side instead, the DynaLock 6451-36 exit sensor bar is built for a 36 inch door and senses at the push side, and the RCI 914 delayed egress sounder handles openings where egress needs to be annunciated with field-selectable volume up to 102dB. Those address the inside of the opening; the VDREEKIT-ET addresses the trim on the outside.
6) Can a request to enter kit be added to an existing Von Duprin 996L trim, or does the trim have to go back to the factory?
It installs in the field. The kit is designed as a retrofit for 996L trim already hanging on the door, with the mounting bracket included, so an existing opening can be upgraded to signal request-to-enter without ordering new factory-prepped trim. This is a replacement/accessory part, so plan on a locksmith or integrator pulling the trim off to install it.
7) What is the difference between a request to enter switch kit and a request to exit sensor bar?
They watch opposite sides of the door. The Command Access REE kit sits in the outside lever trim and reports that someone is entering by key or valid credential, so the panel can shunt the alarm. A request-to-exit device reports egress from the secure side, and for that you want a push bar sensor like the DynaLock 6451-36 exit sensor bar for a 36 inch door. Many openings end up with both: one so the panel knows people are coming in, one so it knows they are going out.
8) The REE switch is only rated 0.5A at 24VAC. What do I use to switch a bigger load?
Drive a relay board with it. The switch contact in the Command Access kit is good for 0.5A at 24VAC, which is signaling duty, not lock power. The Locknetics RDB4 four-output relay distribution board is the kind of part that takes a small dry contact and switches the heavier circuits, keeping the lock current off the trim switch entirely.
9) Do I need a separate power supply for a 24VAC request to enter switch kit?
The switch itself is a dry SPDT contact, so it does not consume power, it just passes your panel's 24VAC signal at up to 0.5A. Power comes from whatever feeds the circuit you are switching. If you need a low voltage source on the opening, a transformer like the Adams Rite 4605, 115VAC in to 12/24VAC out at 40 volt-amps, is the type of supply that feeds this class of circuit.
10) Is there more than one version of the VDREEKIT-ET to choose from when ordering?
One configuration only. The VDREEKIT-ET is ordered as a single model, SPDT, with the REE bracket (part #50843) and the wiring identification sticker in the box. There is no handing, finish or voltage choice to specify, which is unusual for trim-related hardware and means you only need to confirm the trim is a Von Duprin 996L.
11) Will the request to enter kit transfer power through the door to an electrified lock?
No, and that is a common mix-up. This Command Access kit is a signaling switch only, SPDT at 0.5A and 24VAC, reporting lever movement to a panel. Getting current from the frame into the door is a separate part: the RCI 9500/9501 mortise pin transfer, rated 1.5A at 24VAC, is the kind of device that does that job. On an electrified opening you would typically need both.
12) The VDREEKIT-ET only gives me one set of dry contacts. What do I add if several devices need to act on that signal?
The Command Access VDREEKIT-ET provides a single SPDT switch, 0.5A at 24VAC, with one common, one normally open and one normally closed connection. It is not a multi-output device and there is no larger version of the kit. Where one input has to drive several loads, the Locknetics RDB4 is a four output relay distribution board, supplied as the board only. The RDB4 is not a replacement for the switch kit; it takes the contact the VDREEKIT-ET closes and repeats it.
13) Can I run the Command Access request to enter switch kit off a standard 115 VAC circuit directly?
No. The VDREEKIT-ET switch is rated 0.5A at 24VAC and is intended to switch low voltage access control circuits, not line voltage. Where a low voltage supply has to be derived from building power, the Adams Rite 4605 is a transformer taking 115 VAC to 12 or 24 VAC with a 40 volt-amp output. The transformer is a power source, not a substitute for the switch kit.
14) Is this request to enter switch kit rated for commercial door traffic?
It is a commercial door hardware component, sold for access control on commercial openings such as schools, hospitals, offices and government buildings. It is an electronic part, not a mechanical one, so the thing that wears is the switch contact and the 0.5A at 24VAC rating is the limit you design to.
