Installation
ATTENTION:
This equipment contains components that can be damaged by
electrostatic discharge. Ensure both you and the equipment are earthed before
beginning any servicing.
The Gallagher T11 Reader is designed to be mounted on vertically orientated electrical flush (gang)
boxes, or any solid flat surface. However installation on metal surfaces, particularly those with a large
surface area will reduce read range. The extent to which the range is reduced will depend upon the
type of metal surface.
Note:
Consideration should be given to the installation environment when using Gallagher mobile
credentials, as the Bluetooth® wireless technology read range may be reduced.
The recommended mounting height for the reader is 1.1 m (3.6 ft) from the floor level to the centre of
the reader device. However this may vary in some countries and you should check local regulations for
variations to this height.
1.
Ensure the building cable has been run out through the flush box.
If you are not mounting to a flush box, use the reader bezel as a guide to drill all five holes. Drill
the 13 mm (1/2 inch) diameter centre hole (this is the centre hole for which the building cable
will exit the mounting surface) and the four fixing holes.
2.
Run the building cabling out through the centre hole and through the reader bezel.
3.
Secure the bezel to the flush box using the two 6-32 UNC screws provided. It is important the
reader bezel is flush with and tight against the mounting surface.
If you are not mounting to a flush box, secure the bezel to the mounting surface using the four
fixing screws provided.
Note:
It is strongly recommended that you use the screws provided. If an alternative screw is
used, the head must be no larger nor deeper than that of the screw provided.
Note:
Ensure the centre hole allows the cable to run freely out through the mounting surface, so
that the reader facia can clip into the bezel.

Connect the reader tail extending from the facia assembly to the building cable. Connect the
wires for the appropriate reader you wish to interface, either an HBUS Reader or a Cardax IV
Reader, as shown in the following diagrams.
Note:
Gallagher PIV and mobile credential readers must be connected as HBUS Readers.
