Is the board actually the problem?

Control boards are the most over-diagnosed part on any telephone entry system. Work through this before ordering — several of these faults look identical from the outside and cost a fraction of a board.

SymptomLikely cause
Display dead, no backlightPower first, then the board
System will not dial outThe line or the cellular/VoIP device before the board
Dials but no audio either wayThe voice circuit on the board
Keypad unresponsiveKeypad or the board
Programming will not saveMemory or the board
Gate relay never firesThe relay side of the board, or the wiring to the operator
Erratic behaviour after a stormSurge damage — a very common cause on entrance equipment

Order by the number printed on the board, not by the model on the machine. Boards changed several times within the same model run, so two units with identical model numbers on the data plate can take different boards. Open the control box and read the number off the board itself.

Common questions

Will this fit my unit? Check the number printed on your existing board against the part number above. If it matches, or matches one of the alternate numbers listed, it fits. If you cannot read it, send us a photo.

Will I lose my programming? Yes. A new board arrives empty — resident directory, entry codes and settings all need re-entering. Export or write down your programming before you start if the old board still powers up.

Is this genuine? Yes, genuine OEM. Aftermarket boards exist for some models but firmware behaviour varies, and a control board is not the place to economise.

Can I fit it myself? Physically it is a few connectors and standoffs. The commissioning afterwards — limits, force, safety devices — is what needs care, and on a commercial or multi-family installation it needs to be done to UL325.

    DK 1871-010 CPU

    Posted by Steve on Sep 4th 2012

    The 1871-010 is a replacement CPU to the 1812. There is an upgrade kit with the newer CPU, but the upgrade costs is nearly as much as a complete new unit, so you might as well buy a whole new unit. Unfortunately, the newer unit is not programmable from a PC via your telco line. DK now only supports PC programability via Ethernet which is limited to 350feet and requires trenching for CAT-5e from house to gate. The 1871-010 CPU is expensive! $800 shipped! Shipment was dropped shipped from either the factory or a distributor directly to me. This caused the 2-day shipping to take 3 days. But the CPU arrived in good condition and in working order. If DK supported programablility via the telco line as before, the newer system would have been a good upgrade choice for the cost.
