NanoQuest Lite Installation Guide
DOC0085_Issue1.0
Scope
This document explains the installation of the NanoQuest Lite product. This information is not
relevant to the standard NanoQuest product.
Before Installation
Check that the box contains the following items:
1 x NanoQuest Lite (2-part) unit
2 x mounting screws (No.6 x 1.25”)
1 x cover securing screw
2 x Master proximity cards
1 x varistor
1 x Mounting Template
You will also need unassigned proximity cards or card packs purchased separately.
The NanoQuest Lite requires a power supply of between 9 and 16V DC. We recommend that an
appropriate 12V DC power supply unit or mains adaptor is made available to supply power to the
NanoQuest Lite. The NanoQuest Lite requires less than 70mA at 12V.
Mounting the NanoQuest Lite
1) Identify a suitable location for the unit. It should
be located at a convenient height near to the
door that it controls. The unit is waterproof and
suitable for exterior use but it must not be used
for an exterior door without another means of
securing the door. (For example, a dead lock
secures the door at night with NanoQuest Lite
controlling access by staff during the day).
2) Use the supplied template to mark out the
positions of the holes for screw fixings and cable
access, and drill appropriate sized holes.
3) Remove the cover from the unit by inserting the
tip of a terminal screwdriver into the small slot
next to the screw hole at the bottom of the unit,
and pressing lightly to release the securing catch
while you separate the cover from the body at
the base.
4) Feed the cable through the wall and terminate it
either inside the PSU enclosure or in a suitable
tamperproof terminal box.
5) Secure the NanoQuest Lite to the wall.
6) Fit the cover and secure with the supplied
securing screw once the NanoQuest Lite has
been fully installed.
Wiring the NanoQuest Lite
Connect the unit as shown on the next page (always fit the varistor as close to the locking device
as possible). If a door strike is used and a door handle is left in use on the inside of the door,
connection to the free exit button may not be required.
