To reduce the average current required by the reader, pull the purple conductor low.
10.0 Connection
Connection must be done in accordance with NFPA 70. Do not connect to a receptacle controlled by a switch. Connect to a power limited DC
voltage source.
11.0 Troubleshooting
1. When the reader is first powered on it will beep 4-times, and the LED will shine red.
2. Presenting a supported access credential will result in the reader beeping and the LED flashing once.
3. Mobile operation is optimized for smartphones supporting BLE (Bluetooth LE) version 4.2 or newer. Further, for the downloading of mobile
access credentials, a stable, high-quality internet connection is recommended.
NOTE: The access panel controls LED functionality, such as switching the LED to green.
If the reader does not recognize the mobile credential or card or tag (no beep, no LED flash) or exhibits short read range, please see the table
below for possible causes and solutions.
Possible Cause
Corrective Action
Incorrect cabling
Verify gauge, connections and cabling length
Not enough power
12 VDC recommended
Incorrect credential used
Verify if credential technology is supported
Reader/access panel not properly grounded
Earth ground needed—verify shield and reader ground are tied at access panel and connect
to ground at one point
Supply generating interference
Linear power supply recommended, verify switching power supply before use
Should any of the corrective actions mentioned above not improve performance, disconnect the reader from the access panel and power it with a
separate power supply or 9VDC battery, and re-test card functionality. By powering the readers separately, most variables that may lead to
reduced performance can be eliminated. Should the problem persist, please contact Farpointe directly.
