Zodiac LITE Installation Instructions 

May 2008 

!

 Rev 1.5 

 

Introduction 

 

The Zodiac LITE biometric fingerprint reader allows all programming and user management to take place right at 
the reader, without having to run cables to a PC. Up to 90 user templates can be stored in the reader’s non-volatile 
memory. When used with a power supply and a door control module, this reader becomes the focal point of a 100 
per cent PC-free, stand-alone door access control system.
