Kantech KT-1 Installation Guide

Heartbeat LED Patterns
Communication status and other vital controller parameters can be obtained from
heartbeat LED patterns located in the Kantech shield on the cover. This information
is particularly useful when connecting the controller to the rest of the EntraPass sys-
tem. The following table lists all possible conditions, along with a brief description of
each. Refer to the Troubleshooting section of this guide if you must reset or change
the communication mode of the KT-1.
WARNING: DO NOT LOOK DIRECTLY AT LED WITH UNSHIELDED EYES, OR
DAMAGE TO RETINA MAY OCCUR.
