Hikvision DS-KD-DIS KD8 Pro 3.5" LCD Name Scroll Display Module for IP Video Intercom

Hikvision DS-KD-DIS KD8 Series Pro 3.5" LCD Name Scroll Display Module

The Hikvision DS-KD-DIS is a professional 3.5-inch LCD name scroll display module designed for compatible Hikvision KD8 Series Pro modular IP video intercom door stations.

Featuring a colour TFT LCD screen, four physical navigation buttons and support for up to 2,000 contacts, the DS-KD-DIS provides a convenient digital directory for apartment buildings, residential complexes, commercial offices and multi-tenant properties.

Instead of relying entirely on individual physical nametag buttons, visitors can browse a digital contact directory to locate the appropriate resident, apartment or office.

The module provides information display functions for contact lists, dialling and PIN-code access when used with the required compatible intercom components.

Its 3.5-inch TFT LCD offers a resolution of 320 × 480 pixels, providing a clear interface for navigating the intercom directory.

The screen has a manufacturer-specified brightness of 250 cd/m².

Four physical buttons provide Up, Down, OK and Back navigation, allowing visitors to browse and select directory entries.

The DS-KD-DIS supports multiple languages, making it suitable for diverse residential and commercial environments.

With capacity for up to 2,000 contacts, the module offers a scalable directory solution for compatible multi-residence intercom systems.

When configured with the appropriate Hikvision modular door station and indoor stations, visitors can locate a contact and initiate communication with the selected destination.

The module can also display dialling and PIN-code access information when used with compatible system components, including a supported keypad module where required.

Designed for the Hikvision KD8 modular platform, the DS-KD-DIS can be combined with compatible door station main units and expansion accessories.

The modular design allows professional installers to create entrance systems incorporating video communication, directory navigation, visitor calling and additional access control functions.

The DS-KD-DIS is an expansion module and cannot operate as a standalone video intercom door station.

It does not include its own camera, microphone, loudspeaker, card reader or independent lock-control relay.

The module communicates through the compatible Hikvision modular intercom system and features a manufacturer-specified RS-485 interface.

The manufacturer's current product specifications list a power consumption of 2.5W.

With an IP65 protection rating, the module is designed for suitable outdoor entrance installations when correctly mounted and sealed.

The specified operating temperature range is -20°C to +60°C.

Its compact dimensions of 98.5 × 100 × 34.2mm allow integration into compatible Hikvision modular mounting assemblies.

Both surface and flush mounting arrangements are supported using suitable Hikvision mounting accessories.

The Hikvision DS-KD-DIS is an excellent option for professional installers seeking a digital resident directory and name-scrolling functionality for compatible Hikvision modular video intercom systems.

Available from Civic Electronic, an Authorised Hikvision Sales Partner and Hikvision Training Centre in Sydney, Australia.

Important: The DS-KD-DIS is a display expansion module only. A compatible Hikvision modular door station main unit and mounting accessories are required. Hikvision lists this model as discontinued; please confirm stock availability before ordering.
