General
The Wall Mount Combination Proximity & Magnetic Stripe
Card Reader reads the following format cards:
Magnetic Stripe: ABA/ANSI/ISO and EMPI
Proximity: HID 26-37 bit, EMPI and Proxi 10
The readers are normally wall mounted and designed for
indoor or outdoor use.
Proximity cards are placed in front of the reader and normally
read at a distance of six inches (at +5 VDC) and seven
inches (at 12.0 VDC). Mounting the readers on metal will
typically reduce the distance. The data is transmitted to any
host controller that can supply +5 to +24 VDC operating
voltage to the reader, and that can accept the standard
Wiegand 26-bit or 34-bit format.
Before Installing Read
e
1 The host controller must supply +5 to +24 VDC operating
voltage to the reader. The voltage drop as measured
across the reader must be within 5 to 24.0 VDC.
2 The maximum recommended reader distance from the
host is:
200 feet with #22 AWG 5 or 6-wire cable
500 feet with #18 AWG 5 or 6-wire cable
Unshielded wire is acceptable. Some host controllers may
require tighter standards.
Mounting
1 The reader is designed to be mounted with the slot facing the
floor. The user inserts the card upward into the card insertion
slot.
2 The reader can be mounted on a standard single-gang handy
box, (the preferred method) or on any firm flat surface. The
mounting screws should be firmly tightened, but not
excessively. Note that the read head assembly screws are
purposely loose to allow the head to "float"; no adjustments
are necessary. See figure 1.
Figure 1
3 For outdoor applications, use a suitable weather-proof back
box, or handy box, and install the weather seal (provided) on
the back of the readers' base by pushing it securely and
evenly into the "U" shaped recess. See figure 2.
Grasp the lower edge of the reader cover. While applying gentle
pressure pull the cover away from the base.
4 Recommended reader mounting height from the floor is
"shoulder height" or about 60 inches. A lower height causes
significant user inconvenience. Reader height may be
lowered to accommodate ADA requirements.
