• To disable EOL termination at a Hand Reader, both switches 1 and 2 must be OFF.
• In a Master/Remote Hand Reader network, the Master reader and the last Remote
reader in the daisy-chain must have EOL termination turned ON. All other readers in
the network must have EOL termination turned OFF.
• In a Hand Reader/host PC network, a modem/host PC network, the last Remote
reader in the daisy-chain must have EOL termination turned ON.
• In an Ethernet / host PC network the EOLs must be turned OFF.
Communication can be done via an RS-232 direct connection, a 4-wire RS-422 network
configuration. The factory default setting is for network communication via 4-wire RS-422
cabling – switch 3 OFF. Refer to Figure 17-11 for switch ON/OFF positioning.
• For network communication via RS-422 cabling, switch 3 must be OFF.
• For network communication via 2-wire RS-485 cabling, switch 3 must be ON.
• For network communication via RS-232, the switch 3 position does not apply. Leave
switch 3 in the default OFF position.
All Hand Readers in a network must be set to the same communication method. Four-
wire RS-422 cabling is required for HandNet for Windows™ network installations.
Schlage Biometrics does not recommend two-wire RS-485 cabling for new network
installations.
