(1) Please keep the distance between the device and access control or card reader less than 90 meters
(Please use Wiegand signal extender in long distance or interference environment).
(2) To keep the stability of Wiegand signal, connect the device and the access control or card reader in
same 'GND' in any case.
8.Other Functions
(1) Manual Reset:
If the device does not work properly because of misoperation or
other abnormality, you can use 'Reset' function to
Operation: Remove the black rubber cap, then stick the Reset
button hole with a sharp tool (the tip diameter is less
(2) Restore Factory Settings:
You can use the tamper switch to restore factory settings, such as
device number, system password, IP address, RS485 address.etc.
The user data won't be cleared.
Operation: Press the tamper switch three times after the alarm being
triggered 30 seconds, but no more than 60 seconds.
9. Communication
There are three modes that the PC software could communicate and exchange information with the device:
RS232, RS485 and TCP/IP, and the last two modes support remote control.
(1) RS232 Mode:
Terminals definition, please refers to the right table:
7. Wiegand Input
The device has the function of Wiegand signal
supports to connect with an independent card reader.
They are installed each side of the door, to control the
lock and access together.

(1) Power cable is connected after all the o ther wiring. If the device is
do wn the power firstly, then make some
plugging may damag e device, and it is not included in the warranty.
(2) We recommend that use the DC 3A/12V power supply. For details, please contact our technical
personnel or sales.
(3) Please read the terminals description
caused by improper operations will be out of the range of our guarantee.
(4) Keep the e xpose d par t o f wire is less than 5mm to avoid unexpected connection, and result i n m achinery damage.
(5) Please connect the GND before all the other wiring especially under the serious
to prevent the overlarge instantaneous electrostatic to damage device.
(6) If the distance between
cable or other types of cable instead. When choosing the power supply cable, you should
consider that the transmission distance may cause voltage attenuation.
(7) Please use specified RS485 wire, RS485 active converter, and adopt bus-type wiring. If the communication
wire is longer than 100 meters, it is needed to parallel a terminal resistance on the last device of RS485 bus,
and the value is about 120 ohm.
