If A Wiring Extension Is Required; Fitting The Reader - Kaba 3.5 Installation Manual

18. If a battery is being installed, mount the battery bracket in the control panel using 2 screws provided
in the battery kit. The battery should be installed with the terminals facing the controller board and
positioned closer to the power supply (see Figure 1). Connect the red wire from the TB4 terminal on
the Power Supply (C) to the + red terminal on the Battery (F). Connect the black wire from the TB4
terminal on the Power Supply (C) to the - black terminal on the Battery (F). The battery will take 24
hours to fully charge.

panel. The red LED will light.

3.2 If a wiring extension is required:

1. Connect the KIM Swipe Reader Assembly (B) to a junction box and run 4 20 AWG twisted pairs (8-
conductor cable) of wire from the junction box to the control panel. The gauge used will determine the
maximum distance between the Controller (A) and the Swipe Reader Assembly (B) (e.g. 20 AWG will
allow 500 feet).
2. Connect the cable as shown in Table 1.
