This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy
and if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual,
may cause interference to radio communications. It has been tested
and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device
pursuant to Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to
provide reasonable protection against such interference when operated
in a commercial environment. Operation of this equipment in a residential
area is likely to cause interference in which case the user, at his/her own
expense, will be required to take whatever measures may be required to
correct the interference.
With the RS485 communication scheme, a keypad can be located as far
as 4000 feet from the controller, therefore shielded twisted pair cable
with ground wire is required for optimal operation. Additionally, larger
gauge wire must be used the farther the device is from the controller,
The system will not operate properly if the voltage is below
12VDC. Extreme care should be taken when choosing a power supply
voltage and current rating. Long distance runs may require a remote
power supply to be installed in line with an RB5 relay to ensure proper
operation.
Do NOT run low voltage system wires in the same conduit
as high voltage wiring
Incorrect installation of electrical components can result in
damage to electronics as well as personal injury.
Cross-wiring the AC power with the DC power will damage
the electronics.
Cross-Wiring the Power wires with the Data wires will
damage the electronics
Cross-wiring the positive and negative on the DC part of
the system will damage the electronics.
Warning: The User should follow all installation, operation, and
maintenance instructions. The User is strongly advised to conduct
product and systems tests at least once each week. Changes in
environmental conditions, electric or electronic disruptions and
tampering may cause the product to not perform as expected.
PTI Security Systems warrants its Product to the User. The User
is responsible for exercising all due prudence and taking necessary
precautions for the safety and protection of lives and property wherever
PTI Security Systems products are installed. PTI Security Systems does
not authorize the use of its products in applications affecting life safety.

Installation
Placing APEX Devices
The APEX Access Device (APEX) controls entry to or exit from a
secured area. It works in conjunction with a controller and control
software. The APEX can be used to control gate access, building
access, room access, elevator access, etc. and is designed for ease
of use and flexibility. Both the keypad and the large LCD are backlit
for easy visibility day and night. Mounting height for devices will
vary with local code regarding handicap access, emergency and
fire access, and other regulations.
Before installing the APEX determine where and how the device
will be installed, since the mounting location is determined by how
the device will be used. For drive up access, install the device where
it can be reached from a vehicle’s driver door. If the APEX is used for
walk up access, install it where it can be accessed by a person on foot.

Drive Up Accessibility
When the APEX will be positioned for drive up accessibility, the
device must be mounted within easy reach of the driver of an
automobile or light truck. Most of these locations use gooseneck
stands on an island between the entry and exit gates (or to the
left side of the gate if a single gate is used). “Drawing 1: Drive up
accessability” on page 2 shows different entry layouts.
Local building codes may set a minimum and maximum height for
devices that are accessible by vehicle. shows suitable mounting
locations when used for vehicle access.
Walk Up Accessibility
When the APEX is used for walk up access, it can be mounted on a
stand or attached to a wall. It can also be surface mounted so that
it protrudes from the wall.
Mounting Access Devices
The proper mounting height for the APEX varies with the application
and it can be installed at an entrance on a gooseneck/bollard or
attached to a wall.
Once the keypad location is determined, note , the location and
purpose of the device on a site security wiring plan. Keep the plan
in a safe location for future maintenance and service purposes.
Surface Mount
Surface mounted keypads are often used in conjunction with door
strikes and elevators.
Mounting height is usually 48” – 58” from the floor to the center of
the ‘5’ button on the touchpad. However, the final location of the
keypad may be affected by local building codes.
The choice of fasteners depends on the construction material of
the wall.

Note: If the APEX is installed on an exterior wall, seal the contact
point between the housing and the wall with a silicone sealant
rated for outdoor use. This prevents moisture and insects from
getting into the housing.
Flush Mount
A flush mount box allows the keypad to be
set into hollow walls and is used in interior
installations.
The flush mount box must be ordered
separately. Mounting height is generally
48” – 58” from the finished floor to the
center of the ‘5’ button on the touchpad.
A gasket is needed for the face plate if the
flush mount kit is used outdoors.Refer to
“Drawing 3: Flush mount exploded view”
on page 5 for the mounting details of
the flush mount adapter.
The actual placement of the APEX device and its wiring methods
may be affected by local building codes.
An elevator flush mount is available made of brushed stainless steel
for mounting inside elevator cars; this model does not include an
intercom.

Box Mount
A box mount with no shaded overhang
is available for locations that require the
keypad to be mounted lower than standard
height, such as for handicap access. This
box mount must be ordered separately.
With a normal APEX mount, a standing
person may not be able to see the display.
Mounting height varies from 42” – 58”
from the finished floor to the center of the
‘5’ button on the touchpad.
Most standard keypad installations place the ‘5’ button on the
touchpad at approximately 50 inches from the finished floor for
walk up keypads, and 45 inches from the finished driveway for
standard vehicle access.

Gooseneck Stand Mount
A gooseneck is commonly used for driveways for vehicle access.
The gooseneck can also be used near doors for wheelchair access
or when sidewalks and landscaping require a freestanding keypad
mount away from the building.
• The base plate of a gooseneck has a hole that accepts conduit
(¾” maximum) for electrical wiring. Ensure the conduit is
placed properly and the wiring runs through the conduit before
mounting the gooseneck stand to the concrete base. The final
location of the gooseneck and the mounting techniques may
be affected by local building codes.
• As a precaution, the gooseneck should be protected with
concrete bollards to prevent vehicles from damaging the
electronics.
• There are several different styles of gooseneck stands available.
See for the dimensions of two common styles in “Drawing 6:
Gooseneck stand mount” on page 7.
Both single and double bollards are mounted on a Schedule 40
10 3/4” diameter pipe with a .365” wall. This pipe is footed in
concrete and filled 3/4 of the way with concrete to create a solid
barrier. The entire pipe and bollard are then painted to match the
facility. Contact PTI Security Systems for full
measured installation plans and instructions.
Wall Mount Gooseneck
A wall mount gooseneck allows the keypad
to be mounted on a wall. It may be used
for door strikes or for gates in driveways
ajacent to a building wall, as shown in
“Drawing 5: Wall mount Gooseneck” on
page 6. Drawing 5: Wall mount
