2 Installation and Operating Instructions
INSTALLATION
To select an installation site:
• Avoid wiring the R885S’s cables in the same
conduit as AC power cables, lock power or
signal wiring.
• Reader wiring must remain a minimum of
30cm (12in) away from other wiring, such as
wiring for AC power, computer data,
telephones, electric locks, etc.
• Avoid sites within 1.1m (3.5ft) of computer
monitors or CRTs.
• Avoid sites near sources of broad spectrum
EMI noise, such as motors, pumps,
generators, DC to AC converters, AC
switching relays, power supplies and light
dimmers.
• Avoid sites near potential sources of RF
signals, such as cellular phones, two-way
radios, etc.
MOUNTING AND WIRING
Use the mounting plate as a guide to drill two
holes to secure the mounting plate and a hole for
the cable 0.95cm to 2.54cm (0.375in to 1in)
wide. Place a grommet around the edge of the
hole for the cable. Prepare the R885S’s cable by
cutting the cable jacket back 3.175cm (1.25in)
and stripping the wires back 0.635cm (0.25in).
Splice the R885S’s wires with a recommended
cable wire (see page 7) and connect as shown in
Figure 1 on page 5.
