DS2 and Keri Door Access System

Has anyone used the DS2 door station to replace a RFID card reader and Keypad on a Keri Door Access system, or any other door access system for that matter.  We are working on plans for our new building and had planned on using our typical Keri system to control 4 entry doors and our inventory cage.  Typically we do this as a standalone door access system with separate readers and keypads but our sales department is asking if we can utilize the RFID and Keypad modules with the DS2 to communicate directly to the Keri system.  I have looked through the installation and programming documentation but have only seen instances where you connect the door directly to the DS2 and security relay.

We have used the 2N IP verso here, when a user code is entered or the Bluetooth module is triggered, it sends IP commands to Control4 (received by Ryan's Web Events driver - https://untestedhacks.com/2013/web-events-driver/) to close a relay, which then triggers our Paxton Net2 access control system to open the door. We had to use the IP method to trigger the Control4 as we didn't have a spare CAT line at the door station - although this is actually a bit more secure as it means you can't just pull the DS2 off the wall and short 2 cables together to open the door).

Depending on the Keri system, you may be able to send IP commands to it directly from the DS2.
