Install elevators

Kisi supports two types of elevators: relay-based and dispatch-based elevators.

Install relay-based elevators

Prerequisites

1. One Kisi Reader Pro for every elevator car
2. One Kisi Controller Pro for every four elevator stops

info

Up to 10 Kisi Controller Pros can be used together for one elevator, supporting a maximum of 36 floor stops. Going above 36 stops is not supported.

Wiring by retrofitting

If internet connectivity is not available inside the elevator car, a retrofitting setup should be implemented, which includes a Kisi two-wire switch and adapter.

Wiring using existing Ethernet port

If an Ethernet port is available inside the elevator car, use this alternative.

info

Please ensure that the reader is not obstructed by placing it behind glass or aluminium inside the elevator car. Tap to Unlock and cards may not perform well through such materials, especially if they are tinted.

Install dispatch-based elevators

Kisi supports dispatch-based elevators through the Braxos integration. Check out our integration guide or contact us for installation.
