## Long description

Hikvision DS-K1801EK is a compact, grey access control reader designed for integration into door entry and user authentication systems. Measuring 87 × 87 × 13.3 mm, the unit is intended to read ID card credentials and relay them to an access control panel using standard Wiegand protocols. It is powered from a DC supply up to 12 V and draws a maximum current of 0.15 A, making it suitable for installations with modest power budgets where a reliable basic reader is required.
Advantages
The reader features a durable PC+ABS housing with IP65 protection for resistance to dust and water exposure in indoor or sheltered outdoor locations. A blue light display button provides clear user feedback during credential presentation. The device supports Wiegand output (W26, W34) for compatibility with common access control systems and includes a watchdog design for improved operational reliability. It also offers a broad operating temperature range down to −20 °C and up to +65 °C.
Suitable for
Basic door access control in commercial buildings
Residential entry systems where card-based authentication is required
Integration with existing access panels that accept Wiegand (W26/W34) inputs
Environments requiring a compact, low-power reader with IP65 protection

How to use
Mount the Hikvision DS-K1801EK on a flat surface near the secured door according to local installation standards, ensuring a proper seal to maintain IP65 protection. Connect the reader to the access control panel using Wiegand wiring (W26 or W34) and supply DC power within the specified 0–12 V range. Enroll ID cards and configure any required authentication modes on the connected controller; the reader will present card numbers to the controller when a credential is presented. Follow Hikvision wiring diagrams and the system controller manual for relay, alarm, and tamper connections.
Usage recommendations
Use the DS-K1801EK with compatible access control panels that accept Wiegand (W26/W34) signals. For outdoor installations, install the reader in a sheltered location where the IP65 rating is sufficient, and ensure power supply cabling is protected. Verify model-specific credential support (ID card vs. Mifare) and authentication mode (card only or card & password) before deployment to match system requirements.
