Frequently asked questions
Functionality
How does a keypad door open?
There are two ways to open a keypad-controlled door: via the ButterflyMX app, and with a PIN code.
How do I enter a keypad door with a pin code?
The keypad accepts 6-digit PIN codes, which you can create in the mobile app or by logging into your account on the ButterflyMX OS.
To open a door via the keypad, enter in the correct 6-digit PIN code and press the check mark. The keypad will make a “ka-ching” sound and numbers will turn green for the duration of the time the door is open.
Note: You do not need to enter a unit number prior to entering a PIN.
How do I enter a keypad door with the mobile app?
Exactly the same as the intercoms, open the ButterflyMX app and swipe the button from left to right to open the door. The keypad will make a “ka-ching” success sound and numbers will turn green for the duration of the time the door is open.
What do the colors and the sounds on the keypad mean?
See the table below for a breakdown of the keypad statuses!
| Status | Interaction |
|---|---|
| Turned On | White numbers, red cancel icon, green accept icon |
| Number Tapped | Brightened screen and “tap” sound |
| Successful PIN Entry | Two note ascending bell sound, green for the duration of the time the door is open |
| Timeout / Clear | Flash white with two note bell “dun-dun” |
| Incorrect Pin | Flash red with two note bell “dun-dun” |
| Contact Support | Flashing yellow |
| Open Hours | Solid green |
Can I change the timings on the keypad?
Yes! In the ButterflyMX OS keypad settings, there are three configurable time durations:
- PIN entry will be reset after no activity: default of 20 seconds

- Duration of the door being unlocked after opening: default of 15 seconds
How many doors can the keypad open?
Only one. The keypad has only one relay output.
Camera
Can the camera accept virtual key QR codes?

Can the camera live stream? Does it work with video calls?
No. The camera does not live stream or accept video calls.
Does the camera take photos?
Yes, the camera will take photos either when the mobile app or a PIN is used at the keypad.
Virtual keys
How do virtual keys work on the keypad?
Guests will be issued a 6-digit virtual key PIN code via email or SMS that they can use to gain entry to a keypad-gated space for whichever duration the resident selects.
Note: QR codes are not accepted on keypads.
Can I turn off resident access to the keypad?
