General
The SMR10/20 family of magnetic stripe card readers are designed for reading standard or high-coercivity magnetic stripe
cards. The SMR20 also provides a 12-key keypad for PIN entry. The SMR10/20 provides a TTL interface. The following
paragraphs describe instructions for installing and maintaining the card reader.
Mounting the Reader
Find a suitable location to anchor the reader mounting bracket. The reader may be mounted vertically or horizontally. See
recommended orientation. The mounting of the reader does not require a junction box. However,rigid conduit is required for
outdoor application. A single gang junction box may be used to provide a transition to rigid conduit. If a single gang junction box
is used, a wall plate (optional) may be used to cover the junction box. The reader is then secured to the mounting bracket using
a screw. Refer to figures for reader dimensions and typical junction box usage.

is not used. Cable with wires of 24AWG or larger are recommended for field wiring.
