Engineered as a switchplate-type reader, the SP-6820 mounts directly on a standard single-gang electrical utility box or any wall or flat surface, making it a practical solution for access control at gates, doors, parking facilities, and secured entry points. Built-in metal compensation minimizes read range loss when mounted on metal surfaces. Self-testing and self-diagnostic capabilities confirm correct operation without requiring connection to a controller during installation. Dual simultaneous data output via Wiegand and RS-232 interfaces provides flexible integration with access control panels and PC-based systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine AWID SP-6820 Sentinel-Prox switchplate proximity reader with up to 8 in read range with clamshell cards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounts directly on standard single-gang electrical utility box or any wall or flat surface using 2 screws\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in metal compensation minimizes read range loss when mounted on metal surfaces or pedestals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-color LED indicator provides visual feedback for card read and access-granted status\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 kHz piezo-electric beeper delivers audible confirmation and alarm functions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLED, beeper, and hold circuit externally controllable by host access control panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHold circuit delays code transmission from reader until host system requests it\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelf-testing using internal LED and beeper confirms correct performance without controller connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelf-diagnostic function detects DC power instability and electrical noise with amber LED warning and automatic reset\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRe-present mode prevents multiple reads from single card presentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual simultaneous output via Wiegand and RS-232 serial interface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with all AWID 125 kHz proximity credentials including clamshell cards, keytags, hangtags, and adhesive wafers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo-part ABS plastic enclosure with epoxy resin potting protects electronics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for indoor and outdoor installation with appropriate protective housing when exposed to rain or snow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1815-281\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e AWID SP-6820 Sentinel-Prox\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRead Range:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to 8 in (20 cm) with clamshell cards (varies with mounting, voltage, and credential type)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExcitation Frequency:\u003c\/strong\u003e 125 kHz transmit and receive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAntenna Output:\u003c\/strong\u003e Omni-directional low-frequency RF field\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower Supply:\u003c\/strong\u003e +5 VDC to +12 VDC, linear regulated (120 mA at 5V, 200 mA at 12V)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommunication Protocols:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wiegand electrical interface, RS-232 serial interface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCode Formats:\u003c\/strong\u003e 26-bit to 50-bit AWID credentials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndicators:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3-color LED (red-amber-green), 4 kHz piezo-electric beeper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable (Integrated):\u003c\/strong\u003e 10 conductors, 22 gauge, 18 in, overall shielded, gray plastic jacket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable (Wiegand):\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 to 7 conductors, 22 gauge, stranded, shielded, up to 500 ft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.6 x 3.1 x 0.65 in (11.7 x 7.9 x 1.7 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 oz (227 g)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e ABS 2-part enclosure, epoxy resin potted electronics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single-gang utility box, wall, or cabinet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOperating Temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e -31°F to 150°F (-35°C to 65°C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOperating Humidity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0% to 95% non-condensing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertification:\u003c\/strong\u003e ISO-9001:2000, FCC Part 15, IC, UL listed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnvironmental Protection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Protective housing required when exposed to rain or snow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer:\u003c\/strong\u003e AWID\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e New, genuine OEM part\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eConclusion\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DoorKing 1815-281 AWID SP-6820 delivers reliable short-range proximity reading in a compact switchplate form factor for wall and single-gang box installations.
