Remote Keypad — Detailed Guide
One PIN for many doors and lights
The Remote Keypad lets a survivor in ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended work many PIN-protected doors, chests, lamps and other electrical items at once. Its description: "Allows remote access to multiple doors and/or lights." Type a PIN into the keypad and every item secured with that same PIN will open or close, lock or unlock, or switch on or off, so the code only has to be entered once instead of at each object.
Using it around a base
Picture a base where every 
Omnidirectional Lamppost shares one PIN, which has to be four digits long. Choosing ACTIVATE/OPEN in the keypad's radial menu and entering the PIN lights them all; DEACTIVATE/CLOSE with the same PIN turns them all off again.
- The keypad needs electricity to work.
- It reaches across separate electrical circuits, so the objects it controls do not have to hang off the same Generator. Its range is limited to a few hundred meters.
- With an elevator it can lock and unlock, but it cannot move the platform up or down.
- It cannot turn
Electrical Generators on or off.
Crafting the keypad
The engram unlocks at level 53 for 18 engram points, with 
Electronics as its prerequisite. It is built in a 
Fabricator or a 
Tek Replicator from 25 Electronics, 2 
Metal Ingot or 
Scrap Metal Ingot and 1 
Cementing Paste or 
Achatina Paste. A craft takes 5 seconds and is worth 16 XP.
Weight and loot
Each keypad weighs 4, and a full stack of 100 weighs 400. Crates are another source: 73 crate types can contain one, including Aberration Purple and Aberration Red. Our records list it on 14 maps, among them Extinction, Genesis Part 2 and Fjordur.
