VXS-5

Single-Door Stand Alone Proximity
Access Control System

Installation Instructions

1. INTRODUCTION

Thank you for selecting the VXS-5, the most economical,
proximity access control system on the market designed for small
installations. It is a stand alone, self contained access control
system built into a proximity reader housing. The VXS-5 meets
the need of many users for an electronic door strike control
system with a memory capacity of 10 keys or less. A small office,
private home or apartment would be the ideal application for the
VXS-5.

The VXS-5 memorizes a master key plus 10 keys and comes
with five free proximity tags.

The system is powered from a 12 VDC external power supply.
The EMS (Electromagnetic Door Strike) is energized with 12 VDC
when a valid key is presented. System wiring requires 4 leads
only - 2 for power and 2 for the EMS.

3. INSTALLATION

 

Insert a screwdriver into the recess at the bottom or top of the
case, and separate the cover from the reader.

 

Drill a hole in the wall for the cable.

 

Place the base on the installation surface while passing the
cable through the hole, mark two points for drilling, drill the
holes, and insert the enclosed plastic anchors, if necessary.

 

Fasten the base to the mounting surface, using the enclosed
screws.

 

Connect each wire to the corresponding terminal according to
the following list:

Replace the reader’s cover, ensuring that the cover is aligned
correctly. This will make the LED visible.

 
 

 

4. PROGRAMMING

 

Note:

 The VXS-5 exits programming automatically and reverts to

normal operation if no activity is detected for 10 seconds.

 

4.1. Initial Non-programmed State

 

When first connected to power, the LED blinks amber and red
alternately to indicate that there is no master key.

 

Present one of the keys supplied with the unit. This key will
become the master key.

 

The VXS-5 accepts the master key and the LED turns amber
to indicate the idle state.

 

Note:

 It is recommended to keep the master key in a safe

place. The master key is used for programming only and cannot
be used for access control.

 

4.2. Add Keys

 

Hold the master key next to the unit for 10 seconds. The LED will
start blinking green at the rate of 2 Hz (twice a second) to
indicate the ADD mode.

 

While in ADD mode:

 

Present a key to be added.

 

The green LED lights up steadily for 2 seconds to indicate
acceptance of the new key.

 

To add more keys, wait until the unit resumes blinking green
and present a new key.
