Engaging the Removal Detection Switch for Testing
The front panel of the VP5300 incorporates a removal-detection switch behind the bezel's rubber
gasket, on the unit's right-edge flange (when viewed head-on, as in the illustration below).
Engaging the removal-detection feature is only necessary when attempting to pair a VP5300 with a
compatible ID TECH PIN pad, such as the SmartPIN L100 or L80 keypad for PIN functionality. For
bench testing, you may find it desirable to clamp the detection-removal nubs closed using a metal
strip held on with two screws (as in the illustration below).
Make sure to do this before powering up
the unit.
Conversely, power down the unit before releasing tension on the nubs.
Note:
to close the tamper removal switch, 1.63mm of displacement (compression) is required, or
0.056kg of force, but it is recommended that when using a M4-M5 hex nut to mount the unit, a
torque between 1.0-1.2 N.m be applied to allow the gasket to prevent water ingress as well.
