Your best option for Proximity Access Control

 

4.2 INSTALLATION 

STEPS 

1.  Prepare the single-gang electrical wiring box for Reader mounting. Observe ADA 

requirements. 

2.  If double-gang electrical box is used, drill through the four blind mounting holes on 

the four corners of the Reader. 

3.  Guide the open end of the Panel’s control cable through the access hole on the 

electrical junction box. Secure the cable by tightening the cable clamp. 

4.  Remove the Snap-On cover of the Reader (item b of the parts list) 
5.  Connect the Reader and the Panel together according to Figure 1 for Wiegand 

format, Figure 2 for RS-232 format and Figure 3 for Wiegand/RS-232 format. 

6.  Setup for the RS-232 is: 9600 baud rate, 1 start bit, 1 stop bit, no parity. 
 
 

 
4.3 VERIFICATION 

1.  Power up the Panel, the LED on the Reader should show RED. 
2.  Place a “good” card in front of the Reader.  The reader will give out “ONE” 

audible BEEP and the LED will change from RED to AMBER momentarily and 
then flashing between RED & GREEN. The Reader will stay flashing until the 
card is removed from the reader. You can repeat this action by placing the 
card in front of the reader after the LED turned RED. If the Panel did not right 
it must be powered off/on to re initialize. 

 

4.4 MOUNTING 

1.  Connect the remaining wires to the Panel. 
2.  Mount the Reader securely to the electrical junction box with #6-32x1 

machine screw,

 

(Item c on Parts List.) 

3.  Install the Snap-On cover.
