The BC 402 Compact Card reader is a self contained
magnetic card reader requiring only a Locking
mechanism and a Power Supply for a complete
single door solution.
All programming is achieved by means of magnetic
cards either provided with the unit or as a separate
card pack.
The unit is supplied with 2 Metre cables, where all
terminations are made for the lock, Exit Request
Button and the Power Supply. There are no user
serviceable parts inside the reader.
Installation.
The BC 402 may be installed externally without the need for heaters. The
recommended mounting height is between 1.2 to 1.4 metres, in a vertical orientation
with the small arrow pointing downwards. All fixing screws and clips are provided
with the BC 402.
The cables should be passed through to the secure side of the door for termination to
the Lock, Power Supply and Exit Request Button.
The cable connections are as follows:

Programming the system ( Day to Day).
There are three programming functions available;
1) Validating User Cards for the reader
2) Deleting User Cards from the reader
3) Setting Lock Opening Time.
Logging on the User Cards
Each User Card has a corresponding paper Shadow Card
To validate a User Card, first swipe through one of the Shadow cards. The Green arrow LED will
flash, and the other LEDs will go out
Now swipe the required User Card. The Green arrow LED will go steady, there will be a
confirmation bleep and the three LEDs will come back on.
If the above indications do not happen, the card(s) may have been mis-read. (A mis-read is
accompanied by a falling tone from the unit.) Simply try again, ensuring that the card is kept
vertical and is swiped at a steady rate.
After the User Card has been logged on, write the User details (Name & Card No.) on the Shadow
Card. This may then be used as a record for administration of the system.
More User Cards can be validated now or at any time (200 Max ).
Deleting User Cards.
To remove a User Card from the reader, it is a simple matter of swiping the corresponding
Shadow Card through the reader. The Shadow Card may now be re-used to validate a different
User Card.
Setting the Door Release Time
After initialisation, the Release Time is set to 7 seconds. To change the this time, swipe the
Master card through the reader and after the required time has elapsed, swipe the card again. Do
not swipe any cards through the reader during this time
During the "wait" period all the LEDs will go out and there will be a bleep at one second
intervals to aid the timing.
