How do I replace the battery in my Kantech fob?

Most Kantech access control fobs do not contain replaceable batteries — they are passive RFID devices that do not require power. However, if you are using a Kantech wireless remote or key fob with buttons, it will use a CR2032.

How do I program an ioProx key fob?

How to Program an ioProx Key Fob in Vancouver

If you’ve recently moved into a strata, apartment, or commercial building in the Vancouver area that uses Kantech ioProx access control, you may need to program or replace your ioProx key fob.

At Coras Automation Inc., we specialize in access control systems, key fob programming, and entry management solutions across Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, Surrey, Coquitlam, and the entire Lower Mainland.

What are Kantech readers and how do they work?

Kantech readers are high-quality access control card and fob readers used in commercial, strata, and multi-unit buildings across Vancouver and the Lower Mainland. They’re designed to work with ioProx proximity fobs and cards, allowing secure, touch-free access to doors, gates, and restricted areas.

When a valid Kantech ioProx fob or card is presented to the reader, the device sends the encrypted credential ID to the access control panel (like Kantech EntraPass) to verify and unlock the door if authorized.

What is a Kantech remote and how does it work?

A Kantech remote is a wireless transmitter that allows users to arm/disarm a Kantech security system or remotely open doors and gates from a short distance. It’s commonly paired with Kantech access control panels such as EntraPass systems, and used in parking gates, building entrances, and secure areas across Vancouver and the Lower Mainland.

What is Kantech EntraPass software?

Kantech EntraPass is a powerful access control management software used to control and monitor doors, fob readers, and security devices in commercial, residential, and institutional buildings.

It allows administrators to easily add or remove users, program ioProx fobs and cards, control door schedules, and view live event activity — all from a central interface or through the EntraPass web and mobile app.

What is the Kantech KTES Intercom system?

The Kantech Telephone Entry System (KTES) is a secure intercom and access control solution that lets tenants or staff speak with visitors and unlock doors or gates remotely.
It’s designed for multi-unit residential, commercial, and strata buildings across Vancouver and the Lower Mainland, offering a professional, integrated entry system that connects directly to your Kantech EntraPass software.

What is Kantech Elevator Control?

Kantech Elevator Control is an access management system that restricts or grants access to specific floors in a building using fobs, cards, or mobile credentials.
It integrates directly with Kantech EntraPass software, allowing property managers in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland to control who can access each floor, elevator, or restricted area.

This system is ideal for strata buildings, condos, commercial towers, and mixed-use developments that require secure, selective elevator access.

What is the Kantech KT-MOD-REL8 module?

The Kantech KT-MOD-REL8 is an 8-relay output expansion module used with Kantech access control systems to control additional devices such as elevator floors, door strikes, gates, alarms, or lights.

Each relay output can be programmed through EntraPass software, allowing flexible automation and floor-by-floor control in strata, commercial, and institutional buildings across Vancouver and the Lower Mainland.

What is the Kantech KT-MOD-IO16 RS-485 module?

The Kantech KT-MOD-IO16 RS-485 is a 16-point input/output expansion module designed to increase the control capacity of a Kantech access control system.
It provides 8 supervised inputs and 8 relay outputs, allowing integration of additional sensors, switches, doors, or elevator floors.

Commonly used in Vancouver commercial, residential, and institutional buildings, the KT-MOD-IO16 communicates with Kantech controllers such as the KT-1, KT-300, or KT-400 over an RS-485 bus.

What is the Kantech T.REX-LT Request-to-Exit Detector?

The Kantech T.REX-LT (also known as T.Rex Request-to-Exit Detector) is a hands-free motion-based exit sensor used in access control systems to unlock a door automatically when someone approaches from the inside.
