Product overview
The Smart Card Reader is a multifunction, proximity card reader suitable for all locations (including outdoors)
that require a short-range reader.
You can program the reader using one of the following methods:
• When the reader is connected to the system databus, you can use the control panel programming menu.
• When the reader is connected to a 4-Door/Elevator Controller DGP, you can use the DGP
programming menu.
• You can use a configuration card programmed by the Smart Card Programmer (AL-1623) with the
Alliance management software (see
Alliance management software programming
To program the reader using either the control panel or DGP programming menu, you must connect the readers
to the databus and program them one at a time before you install them at their permanent locations. The default
address is always 16, you must change the address for each reader to avoid having more than one reader with
the same address (16) on the databus at the same time.
If you program the reader using a configuration card, you can install the reader prior to programming.
However, after you install the reader you must change the default address (16) to the reader’s proper address on
the system.
