AES EKPD, Wireless eKeypad Only - Coin Battery Operated (for bulk pricing options see Standalone KP section)
The AES EKPD is a wireless eKeypad only for select AES e-Loop, e-Trans, and gate access control applications. It is designed for wireless PIN-code entry where a compatible AES receiver, transceiver, or supported gate controller is already installed or being supplied separately.
This keypad is coin-battery operated, so it does not require a hardwired power run to the keypad location. It is commonly used for driveway gates, pedestrian access points, service entrances, and retrofit access control jobs where trenching or pulling new keypad wire is not practical.
The EKPD should be ordered by exact part number and system requirement. This page is for the keypad-only version. If the installation does not already have a compatible AES receiver or transceiver, a kit version may be required instead.
What This Wireless eKeypad Does
The AES EKPD sends encrypted wireless keypad commands to compatible AES receiving equipment. In the correct system, a user enters an authorized PIN code and the paired receiver or transceiver sends the appropriate relay or control signal to the gate operator, door controller, or access control input.
The keypad itself does not operate a gate or lock directly. Final operation depends on the paired AES receiver/transceiver, relay wiring, gate operator input, access permissions, channel programming, and required safety devices.
Compatible With
Use the AES EKPD only where the AES documentation, receiver/transceiver manual, product label, or system design confirms compatibility. Compatibility depends on the paired receiver or transceiver, 433.39 MHz wireless communication, programming method, channel setup, and access control wiring.
- Select AES e-Loop and e-Trans systems where EKPD is listed as the compatible wireless keypad
- Select AES e-Trans 50, e-Trans 100, and e-Trans 200 applications where the receiver/transceiver documentation supports the eKeypad
- Gate and door access control applications where a compatible AES receiver/transceiver is already installed
- Installations requiring wireless keypad access without running keypad wiring back to the gate operator
- Applications requiring up to 200 user codes and 1 supervisor code where supported by the installed AES system
- Three-channel access applications where the paired receiver or controller supports the required channel functions
- Repairs or replacements where the original keypad is marked, listed, or cross-referenced as EKPD
Important Compatibility Warning
The AES EKPD is the keypad-only version. It should not be assumed to include an e-Trans receiver, transceiver, relay module, antenna, gate operator wiring, or power supply.
If the site does not already have compatible AES receiving equipment, the keypad by itself will not activate the gate or controlled device. In that case, verify whether the correct item is EKPD only, EKPD-K, EKPD-KT, EKPD-KLT, EKPD-K-US, or another kit version that includes a compatible e-Trans receiver/transceiver.

Technician Note
If an AES EKPD will not activate the gate or access point, do not assume the keypad is bad right away. Check the CR2450 battery, keypad lock/unlock status, code programming, receiver/transceiver power, receiver memory, pairing procedure, channel assignment, antenna condition, radio range, and gate operator input wiring.
If the keypad accepts a code but the gate does not respond, the problem may be the paired receiver, relay wiring, receiver output programming, operator input, access control settings, or a safety-related lockout. Always check the receiving side of the system before replacing the keypad.
Before Ordering, Confirm
- The required part number is EKPD.
- The installation needs keypad-only, not a kit with an e-Trans receiver/transceiver.
- The installed AES receiver or transceiver supports the wireless eKeypad.
- The system operates on the correct 433.39 MHz AES wireless platform.
- The application requires up to 200 user codes, 1 supervisor code, and 3-channel operation.
- The receiver/transceiver has the correct relay outputs and programming for the desired gate, door, or lock function.
- The keypad will be mounted where wireless range and weather exposure are suitable.
- The battery type is CR2450 and package contents are confirmed.
- The item is not being confused with EKPD-K, EKPD-KT, EKPD-KLT, E-REMOTE, E-TX, or a modular AES keypad assembly.
Installation and Service Notes
- Follow the AES instructions for coding the keypad into the compatible receiver or transceiver.
- Program the keypad only on systems you are authorized to service.
- Confirm the keypad is in the proper mode before attempting to code it into the receiver.
- Use the correct CR2450 coin cell battery and observe battery polarity.
- Mount the keypad securely with the supplied or approved hardware.
- Do not mount the keypad where water can sit behind the housing or where the unit can be easily damaged by vehicles.
- Test all assigned channels, user codes, supervisor code functions, limited-use codes, and receiver relay outputs after programming.
- Do not bypass monitored gate safety inputs, photo eyes, safety edges, emergency access devices, access permissions, or required entrapment protection during testing.
Professional Advisory
A qualified gate, access control, or low-voltage technician should service the system if the keypad will not program, the receiver memory is full, the gate activates unexpectedly, the receiver output is unknown, the system controls a magnetic lock or electric strike, or any required gate safety device is involved. Do not bypass receiver programming, access permissions, safety devices, or entrapment protection to make the keypad operate.
Product Questions & Answers
What is the AES EKPD used for?
The AES EKPD is used as a wireless coin-battery-operated eKeypad for select AES e-Loop, e-Trans, gate, door, and access control applications where compatible receiving equipment is installed.
Does the AES EKPD include a receiver or transceiver?
No. EKPD is the keypad-only version unless the product listing specifically states otherwise. The e-Trans receiver/transceiver, gate operator, antenna, wiring, and access control equipment are separate items.
How many codes does the AES EKPD support?
The AES EKPD supports up to 200 user codes and 1 supervisor code where used with compatible AES equipment and programmed according to the system instructions.
What battery does the AES EKPD use?
The AES EKPD is commonly specified with a CR2450 lithium coin cell battery and 3V DC operation. Confirm the battery type and polarity before replacement.
What frequency does the AES EKPD use?
The AES EKPD operates on the AES 433.39 MHz wireless platform. Frequency alone does not confirm compatibility, so the paired receiver or transceiver should still be verified.
Is AES EKPD the same as EKPD-K?
No. EKPD is the wireless eKeypad only. EKPD-K is a related kit version commonly associated with an e-Trans 50 receiver/transceiver, so package contents must be checked before ordering.
What should I check before ordering AES EKPD?
Confirm the exact EKPD part number, keypad-only requirement, compatible AES receiver/transceiver, 433.39 MHz operation, code capacity, channel needs, battery type, package contents, and whether the job requires a kit version instead.
