AWID XK-3640-GR-0 UHF Switchplate Reader with Integrated Keypad, Gray
The AWID XK-3640-GR-0 combines an AWID UHF reader and keypad in a switchplate-style package. It is meant for access points where the site wants both credential presentation and keypad input from one device, such as card-plus-PIN pedestrian entries or managed areas where visitor/vendor PIN entry is used through the access-control panel.
Because it is part of the AWID UHF family, the XK-3640 is commonly tied to sites that also use AWID long-range gate readers. The main fitment questions are credential type, reader output, keypad output, panel compatibility, and the site programming method. Similar-looking readers without a keypad or low-frequency prox readers are not automatically interchangeable.
Compatible With
Use with select AWID UHF access-control systems that support the reader and keypad output required by the control panel.

- AWID LR-2000, LR-2200, LR-3000 and related long-range UHF reader systems when the credential and reader frequency version match
- AWID HiLo long-range and near-field UHF installations where the same UHF credentials are used for vehicle gates and pedestrian doors
- Access-control panels accepting Wiegand data from compatible AWID UHF readers
- Parking facilities, gated communities, perimeter gates, building entries and mixed vehicle/pedestrian access sites using AWID UHF credentials
- AWID XK-3640 / XK3640 card-and-PIN reader applications
- Pedestrian doors, turnstiles, controlled lobby doors and gate walk-through points needing UHF credential and keypad input

Technician Note
When replacing a reader/keypad, confirm how the existing panel handles keypad data. Some panels expect a specific Wiegand keypad format, facility code behavior, or card-plus-PIN rule, so matching the physical reader alone may not complete the job.
Before Ordering Checklist
- Confirm the site uses AWID UHF credentials.
- Verify the access-control panel supports the XK-3640 reader and keypad output format.
- Match the reader frequency region and credential programming.
- Confirm whether the opening uses card only, PIN only, or card-plus-PIN rules.
- Check mounting box, cable, voltage and environmental location before installation.
Important Ordering Warnings
XK-3640-GR-0 is not the same as an XP-3620 reader without keypad, an XR-3600 mullion reader, or a standalone gate keypad. Match the keypad-output requirements before ordering.
Professional Advisory
For new reader wiring, panel programming, access-control database changes, or uncertain site conditions, use a qualified access-control or gate technician. Do not bypass security controls or safety equipment to make a credential or reader appear to work.
Product Questions & Answers
What is different about the XK-3640 compared with XP-3620?
The XK-3640 includes an integrated keypad for PIN entry. The XP-3620 is the related UHF switchplate-style reader without the keypad.
Can this use the same UHF cards as AWID gate readers?
It may be used with the same compatible AWID UHF credential family used at AWID LR readers when the credential format, frequency version, and access-control setup match.
Can it be used as a standalone keypad?
It should be treated as an access-control reader/keypad device, not a standalone keypad operator. The connected panel must support the required keypad and reader data.
Why does keypad format matter?
Access-control panels can interpret keypad data differently. If the keypad output format does not match the panel programming, PINs may not work even when card reads are successful.
What should be checked on a replacement job?
Check the old reader model, wire connections, reader output format, keypad format, credential technology, panel programming, mounting style and voltage.
