Power Supply
The GateKeeper requires a 12 power supply capable of at least 1000mA. The GateKeeper is
calibrated to work with input voltage from 9V to 12V. Do NOT use a power supply with voltage
greater than 12V or current lower than 1000mA. There are two power supply sockets that suit: (1) a
screw-terminal connector or (2) a 2.1x5.5mm barrel connector with the centre positive. You can
use the power supply shipped with the GateKeeper for the screw-terminal socket.
It is
strongly recommended
use an Uninterruptible Power Supply
power for the GateKeeper, door readers, Internet router and all network components.
Door lock
MUST
have its own separate power supply. Do
NOT
use the GateKeeper or
the GateKeeper power supply to power any mag locks or door strike.
If you have a maglock, your door reader
MUST NOT
be mounted on conductive metal
without an earth, or this may cause interference issues.
Note: Maximum length of RS232 serial cable connection is 15 metres (50 feet).
Maximum length of a standard USB cable connection is 3 metres (10 feet).
