1. CAUTION - STATIC PRECAUTIONS Some devices used in the ParSec reader are static sensitive. Anti-static precautions must be taken when handling the printed circuit boards. Static discharge will permanently damage the boards. 2. 2.1. GENERAL INSTALLATION NOTES Reader Design The reader is mounted in a 2-part enclosure for surface mounting. The rear casing has 2 keyholes and 1 slotted hole for the 3 fixing screws and a 25mm diameter knock-out hole in the rear face for cable entry.
2.2. Siting the reader The physical location chosen to site each reader will depend principally upon (1) (2) The area of coverage required for Static Asset Tags (PS-SAT1-1’s). The exit/entry points to be protected or monitored with Portable Asset Tags (PS-PAT1-1’s) and Personnel Tags (PS-PET1-1’s). For 'portal monitoring' with PS-PAT1-1’s and PS-PET1-1’s, the reader should be sited in line with the centre of the doorway and midway between the top of the door and the ceiling.
CAUTION In common with all low power radio frequency based systems, ParSec Universal Readers should be sited as far away as practicable from sources of electromagnetic interference. It is strongly advised that they should not be mounted close to VDU screens, TV monitors or other sources of radio frequency emission. The minimum recommended separation is 1.5m from a 15 inch VDU screen. 2.3. Power Supply Requirements The reader requires a 12V/100mA, DC power supply, which must be CE approved.
2.4.2. Wiegand Data Port (PSR-W26-1 model only) Wiegand data format allows ParSec Readers to be connected directly to access control systems using this standard. This 26-bit version uses the industry standard format as follows. Bit 1 Bits 2 - 9 Bits 10 - 25 Bit 26 Even parity on bits 1-13 Site Code as printed on tags Tag no as printed on tags Odd parity on bits 14-26 Connections for use with an InterPoint are shown below.
3. 3.1. INSTALLING THE READER Fixing the reader enclosure CABLE ENTRY KNOCKOUT ∅ 25mm IN REAR FACE FIG. 1 - READER REAR CASE The rear case should be fixed in position with appropriate. screws in the two upper slotted holes and secured with a third screw in the lower hole.
Installing the Backplane PCB 3.2. It is recommended that power and signal cables are routed via the hole in the centre of the Backplane PCB prior to fixing the PCB and terminating the connectors. The Backplane PCB is secured to the rear case by the four M3 screws provided. Cable connections should be made to the two connector blocks shown below. The designations are also shown on a label affixed to the top inside of the reader housing.

4.1. Default Switch Settings Table 2 below lists the functions of all switches on the Logic PCB. When installing a reader for the first time, set the switches to their default conditions shown in italics in the table.
4.2. Adjusting the Read Range The range at which Portable Asset and Personnel Tags is read by the reader is adjustable from a maximum free space range of about 25m down to a about 10 cm. to suit the requirements of the individual installation. Notes (1) The nominal 75m long range reading of Static Asset Tags is not adjustable. (2) Tamper alarms, routine reports and low battery conditions are signalled by Static and Portable Tags at high power (i.e.
Notes (1) Owing to the nature of RF at the frequencies used in the ParSec system, it may be desirable to carry out the set up procedure a few times to optimise reader performance to the location. (2) Mounting Portable asset tags on metal surfaces may result in a severe loss in range unless care is taken to find the best location. Generally these tags should be located as near to a corner as possible with the arrow on the tag pointing to the outside edge.
4.3. Setting the Reader Address (PS-R232-1 type only) 4.3.1. Reader Address Programming Switch S2 programs the 'units value' and S3 programs the 'tens value'. Set the required values before applying power to the reader. You can set as many readers as you wish to the same address; for example when using several readers to cover a large area. Should the reader number need to be changed, select the new number then depress the reset switch (S15); the new number will then be read by the reader software. 4.3.
4.4. Setting the Indicators & Alarm Functions 4.4.1. Indicator LED Programming Control of the reader status indicator LEDs is set by switch S13-2. In its default position OFF - the LEDs are driven by the internal control lines i.e. amber for the personnel and portable asset tags and green for static asset tag.
4.4.5 Setting the RS 232 baud rate The default RS-232 baud rate is 9,600 with LK2 not fitted. Fitting LK2 changes the baud rate to 2,400 which allows cable lengths up to 60m to be used between readers; 9600 baud is limited to 15m. 4.4.6 Static Asset Tag Sensitivity By adjusting switch S9 it is possible to adjust the sensitivity of the reader to Static Asset Tag movement.
6. TAG TRANSMISSION TIMING For non-FCC approved types the transmission times are as follows. PS-SAT1-1 PS-PAT1-1 PS-PET1-1 When moved 3 times at 1.2s intervals at high power For 2-3 minutes every 0.6s at low power Every 0.6s continuously at low power When In Tamper Every 0.6s at high power Every 0.6s at high power Not applicable Routine report Every hour at high power (Not currently supported) Not applicable For FCC approved types the transmit times are as follows: PS-SAT2-1 PS-PAT2-1 7 7.
8. Repair If for any reason you wish to return the reader for repair or upgrade, before shipping the reader call the Operations Department at Newmark on +44 (0) 1737 788825 and obtain a Repair and Service number (RAS No.). When calling, please have the following information available: • • • Reason for return Reader serial number Our invoice or sales order number - if known Mark the package with the RAS number and return it to the address on the front page of this manual.
