Extra Info
Scalable Integration
The system is built for both small- and large-scale elevator projects. Each DS-K2210 master controller can manage up to 8 distributed sub-controllers, allowing seamless expansion across high-rise buildings or multi-wing facilities. This modular design ensures that security teams can scale the system as needed without replacing existing infrastructure.
Relay Flexibility
Engineered for compatibility, the unit supports multiple relay output types, enabling smooth integration with different elevator button panel designs and wiring setups. This flexibility means it can adapt to both new installations and retrofit projects, minimizing additional hardware costs while maintaining high reliability.
Secure & Reliable
The controller’s tamper-proof housing helps protect against unauthorized access, while RS-485 dual communication lines with redundancy ensure stable performance even if one line fails. This is particularly important in mission-critical environments such as corporate towers, government facilities, and residential complexes, where uninterrupted operation is essential.
Compact Form Factor
With its slim profile and DIN-rail mounting design, the controller fits neatly into crowded elevator control cabinets. The compact build reduces installation time and allows for efficient cable management, making it easier for technicians to set up and service the device without disrupting other components.
Q&A
