DS-K1104MK, Vandal resistant card reader with code keys, MiFare

The DS-K1104M is a vandal-resistant card reader from the access control line of Hikvision. The card reader can be connected via RS-485 or Wiegand.
The beautifully designed card reader can be used both indoors and outdoors. The card reader can read MiFare cards and can be connected to the Basic+ and Pro Complete door controllers from Hikvision.

RS-485 vs Wiegand
Hikvision card readers such as the DS-K1104M are equipped with connection options for both Wiegand and RS-485.
Wiegand has the potential disadvantage that more conductors (7) are required to realize the correct connection. After this, however, no programming in the reader is necessary anymore and everything can be set via the software.

RS-485 has the advantage that fewer wires are needed (4). Another great advantage of RS-485 is that the reader supports two-way communication with the door controller. RS-485 can also work in a bus form instead of star topology. With RS-485, however, it is necessary for this reason to give the readers the corresponding address via dipswitch. The order affects the setting options, so pay attention when making the setting. Readers seen as entering are numbered odd, readers used when exiting the secure area are numbered even.
