Siting the External Prox Reader
Do site the External Prox Reader:
At a convenient height and location for the user.
Out of sight of potential intruders.
Note: The external prox reader is fitted with a length of 2m of the appropriate
cable. The cable can be extended up to 50m by connecting an additional length
of 7/0.2 un-screened alarm cable.
Do NOT site the External Prox Reader:
Next to electronic equipment, particularly computers, photocopiers or other
radio equipment, CAT 5 data lines or industrial mains equipment.
Note: Do not site the external prox reader closer than one meter to any other
kind of prox reader (for example the i-kp01 or another external prox reader).
If you do so then the prox readers will interfere and be unable to read tags.
Opening the External Prox Reader
To open the external prox reader (see Figure 2):
1. Undo the single retaining screw.
2. Tilt the edge of the fixing plate and then slide a short distance parallel to the
body of the prox reader.
3. Slide the fixing plate away from the reader body, along the cable.
