Common questions

How does the ZKTeco KR601E connect?
It supports Wiegand. In UAE installations we normally run it on wired Ethernet, with Wi-Fi kept as the fallback where cabling is impractical.
Can the ZKTeco KR601E be installed outdoors in the UAE?
The manufacturer rates it IP65, solid epoxy potted, ABS + PC textured housing, with an operating range of -10 to +65 C (ZKTeco product page also lists -20 to 65 C), humidity 10-90% RH non-condensing. We still specify a shade hood on elevations that take direct midday sun, which extends screen and sensor life.
