Installation Instructions
DESCRIPTION
The MDKP Wireless Keypad is one of Nortek’s MegaCode
door and gate operators. The MegaCode radio format provides unparalleled security with more than a million different codes.
In operation, the user enters their unique code (1 to 6 digits long) on the unit’s keypad then presses the “#” key to send a signal
to the door or gate operator receiver.
The MDKP can be illuminated for use at night or in dark areas. Pressing the “#” key before entering a code turns on two yellow lights that
shine down on the keypad’s keys. To illuminate the keypad after beginning to enter a code, press the “#” key twice, then re-enter the
entire code. The keypad lights remain on for 30-seconds, or until a code is sent.
The option jumper controls two features, the keypad lockout timer and the 30-second repeat feature. The keypad lockout timer will
disable the keypad after 10 repeated activations. The keypad must remain idle for 30 seconds before any new code attempts are
accepted. The 30-second repeat feature allows the user to press
the “#” key again within 30 seconds to send another signal without
having to re-enter their code. These features are available only when option jumper is installed.
NOTE: Having the option jumper
installed will reduce the unit’s battery life. The MDKP is powered by a 9-volt lithium battery. Without the option jumper installed the
battery life is expected to be 5 years with 25 activations-a-day.
MegaCode receivers are programmed by sending a signal from the user
’ s transmitters. This stores the transmitter ’ s code into the
receiver
’ s memory. The receiver will only activate from these “ memorized ” transmitters. Each code entered on the MDKP keypad will
appear to the receiver as a unique MegaCode transmitter. MegaCode receivers have limits on the number of transmitters that can
be programmed into them. Any combination of portable transmitters and keypad codes up to the maximum number of transmitters
allowed can be programmed into a receiver.
WARNING: Change or modications not expressively approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.

IMPORTANT!
• For U.S. installations only: The radios are required to comply with FCC Rules and Regulations as Part 15
devices. As such, they have limited transmitter power and therefore limited range.
• A receiver cannot respond to more than one transmitted signal at a time and may be blocked by radio signals
that occur on or near their operating frequencies, regardless of code settings.
• Changes or modifi cations to the device may void FCC compliance.
• Infrequently used radio links should be tested regularly to protect against undetected interference or fault.
• A general knowledge of radio and its vagaries should be gained prior to acting as a wholesale distributor or
dealer, and these facts should be communicated to the ultimate users.
