Phihong injectors , or power-limited, PoE injectors, which are UL 294 listed.
NOTE
Ensure PoE/PoE+ modules are set to 24 V.
IEEE 802.3 (AT or AF) compliance was not verified to UL294.
PoE installations are UL listed for Mode B only.

Grounding Requirements

■ Ensure that the iSTAR Edge G2 controller is properly connected to an earth ground at the ground stud in the cabinet.
Use 16 AWG or larger wire.
■ Ensure that the shield wires for the readers, inputs, outputs, and AUX cables are grounded to the nearest ground
connection at one end only of the cable.
■ Disconnect the ground wire last to provide maximum protection to the equipment and personnel.
Compliance
■ The iSTAR Edge G2 must be installed within the protected premises.
■ When purchased separately, the iSTAR Edge G2 modules must be installed in an enclosure which has an electrically
supervised tamper switch to maintain UL compliance.
■ For Proprietary Burglar Alarm installations, the iSTAR Edge G2 must be installed in accordance with UL 681 -
Standard for Installation and Classification of Burglar and Hold-Up Alarm Systems.

Safety Information

Life Safety Requirement
A fail-safe mechanism override must be installed at each card reader exit to allow people to leave the secure area in case of
electromechanical device failure.

Static Electricity

■ Before handling any internal components, discharge static electricity by touching a grounded surface.
■ Wear a grounding wrist strap and stand on a grounded static protection mat during installation
■ Limit movement during installation to reduce static buildup.
■ Transport components in static-shielded containers.
