PIN Pad
Our PIN pad is a top-of-the-line security solution that offers unparalleled protection and convenience for your property.
For gate or secure office access, the StorAxxS hub can communicate with a PIN pad, providing a physical override to allow access to areas within a site. Customers can set and edit their PIN codes, and can access a site’s main gate from within their car, all without touching their phone. There’s also a High Security variant of the PIN pad, where all customer access codes are stored completely separated from the PIN pad.
Applications
- Self storage facility entrance and exit gates
- Workspace office entry door

Wiring Diagram
In High-Security configuration, the PIN pad operates via a Secure WiFi connection to the site hub. Wiring of the gate access control is between a Lock Controller and the gate, without the PIN pad’s involvement. The PIN pad simply acts to inform the Hub, which inturn informs the Lock Controller, of when the gate needs to be operated. The PIN pad needs only 12~24V Power.
In direct connection mode, the PIN pad directly monitors and triggers the gate motor. The PIN pad still connects wirelessly to the site Hub, but also wires into a) a reed switch to monitor gate position and b) the gate motor, which it triggers via a ‘dry contact’ relay.
Mounting Instructions
Mount backing plate using rubber-washered screws to ensure water-tightness. Use a PG-11 cable gland for power and signal wiring. Ensure 15mm clearance around the PIN pad backing plate, especially on the bottom edge to allow for the installation of the M4 locking screw.
For best display readability, install in a partially covered / shaded location where possible.
Operation and Commissioning
PIN pads feature an onboard administration menu to streamline the installation and setup. Access to this menu is password protected.
Accessing the Admin Menu
- While holding *, type master code and then press # to enter the admin menu.
- Holding * whilst entering the admin code differentiates a regular pincode from the Admin menu code.
Verifying Inputs Wiring
Admin menu home screen shows “Enter Menu Code” and In1, In2, Out values. Inputs default high (1) when disconnected, and read low (0) when shorted to the COM terminal. Ensure a closed gate reads 0 via its reed-switch, and an open gate shows 1.
To view and Change Values
- On the Admin menu home screen press the menu item number (see below for details) and then press # to display the current value
- To clear the current value, press the * button until the value is cleared e.g. if the value is 15, press the * button twice to clear both digits
- Type in the new value and press # to save the value and go to the next value in that menu, if there is one
- Press * on a menu item to abort saving and go to the home screen (may require multiple presses of the * button)
- Press * on the home screen to exit the admin menu

Opening time – the time it takes for the gate to open/close. The PIN pad will send an “opening” or “closing” status when first triggered and then wait this amount of time before sending an “open” or “closed” status. A Reed switch (see below) can ensure it sends the command sooner than the timer.
Hold open time – the time the gate should stay open for before a second pulse is sent to close the gate. This is only for use in O/S/F (open/stop/close) motors.

Example Configurations
Example 1: O/S/F gate with a Reed switch in the closed position
O/S/F gates don’t auto close and need to be triggered by the PIN Pad to close. If a Reed switch is used for the closed position then:- Opening time = time gate takes to move in seconds (typically around 15)
- Hold open time = time before gate is triggered to close again (typically around 10)
- Output = 1 (pulse high)
- Input 1 = 1 (Reed switch for closed)
- Input 2 = 0 (not used)
Example 2: Auto closing gate with a Reed switch in the closed position
Auto closing gates don’t need to be triggered by the PIN Pad to close. If a Reed switch is used for the closed position then:- Opening time = time gate takes to move in seconds (typically around 15)
- Hold open time = set this to 0 as the gate will close on the motor’s timer. The closed Reed switch will let then PIN pad know to send the “closed” status.
- Output = 1 (pulse high)
- Input 1 = 1 (Reed switch for closed)
- Input 2 = 0 (not used)
Example 3: Auto closing gate with no Reed switches
Auto closing gates don’t need to be triggered by the PIN Pad to close. Without a Reed switch our system can only assume the gate closes after a particular time:- Opening time = time gate takes to move in seconds (typically around 15)
- Hold open time = set this to 1 so that the second pulse is sent a second after the gate is opened. This will ensure the PIN Pad will send the “closing” and “closed” commands and the gate won’t display as open after it closes
- Input 1 = 1 (Reed switch for closed)
- Input 2 = 0 (not used)
