Introduction The Gallagher T10 Reader is a smart card proximity reader. It can be installed as either an entry reader or exit reader. The reader sends information to the Gallagher Controller and acts upon information sent from the Gallagher Controller. The reader itself does not make any access decisions.

2.3 Cabling The Gallagher T10 Reader requires a minimum cable size of 4 core 24 AWG (0.2 mm ) stranded security cable. This cable allows the transmission of data (2 wires) and power (2 wires). When using a single cable to carry both power supply and data, both the power supply voltage drop and data requirements must be considered.
Ensure both you and the equipment are earthed before beginning any servicing. The Gallagher T10 Reader is designed to be mounted on any solid flat surface. However installation on metal surfaces, particularly those with a large surface area will reduce read range. The extent to which the range is reduced will depend upon the type of metal surface.
