Mounting Instructions
There are two methods for mounting the ShootingStar Reader on a solid metal surface (see Figure 1
on page 1).
1. To mount the reader from the outside, three holes need to be drilled. One through-hole (0.25" –
1/4") accommodates the reader cable. Two holes correspond with two 1/4", countersunk
through-holes in the face of the reader (hole size is dependent upon the size of the mounting
screw).
2. To mount the reader from the inside, five holes need to be drilled. One through hole (0.25" – 1/
4") accommodates the reader cable. Four 1/4" through holes correspond with four 1/4" x 20
tapped holes in the back of the reader. Drill these holes to accommodate 1/4" x 20 bolts.
NOTE: Do not mount the reader near sources of Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) such as a
computer monitor. EMI degrades a reader's read range.

Connections
The ShootingStar Reader does not require configuration; there are no switches or jumpers to set.
The ShootingStar Reader is normally connected to a PXL-250, PXL-100, or IntelliProx, but can be
connected to an alternative host controller/alarm panel through an IntelliProx used in its Wiegand
input device mode. All connections needed to support the reader are made through the reader's
cable. Three of the wires on the MS-4000 cable are not used (Brown, White, and Green). Please
consult the tables on pages 2 and 3 for specific connection instructions.
