Vicon DS-K182HP Quick Start Manual

QUICK START GUIDE
125-kHz PROXIMITY CARD READERS
This Quick Start Guide is intended for experienced installing technicians. It is a basic reference to ensure all connections are properly made.
Installation and wiring of systems must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.

1.0 Introduction

A key component of a physical security electronic access control system, a proximity card reader is based on RFID technology. In operation it is
capable of reading data stored on a proximity credential via radio frequency and without physical contact, and then passing the data obtained to
the physical access control system. Access control systems typically manage and record the movement of individuals through a protected area,
such as a locked door.

2.0 Mounting Provisions

Each reader may be installed either indoors or outdoors.

4.0 Cable Requirements

24 AWG minimum, multi-conductor stranded with an overall foil shield, for example Belden 9535 or similar, supporting the five conductors
comprising the physical layer of the Wiegand interface (power, ground, data 0, data 1, and/or beeper and LED). Alternatively, Belden 9539 or
similar, for all reader functions. Contact your access control system manufacturer for their specific requirements. Per the SIA's Wiegand
specification, maximum cable length is 500 feet (152 m).

5.0 Output Formats

Wiegand (industry standard 26-bit Wiegand and custom Wiegand formats).

6.0 Grounding

Shield (drain) continuity must run from the reader to the access panel. Shield (drain) and reader ground must be tied together at the access panel
and connect to an earth ground at one point.

7.0 Power

Reader may be powered by the access panel. A linear power supply is recommended for best operation.

NOTES:
Single Line LED: This is the standard operating mode and does not
a
make use of the Orange conductor. The LED is Red when the reader is
idle and flashes when a card is presented. The LED turns Green when
the Brown Conductor is pulled low by the access control panel.
Dual Line LED: This mode makes use of both the Brown and Orange
b
conductors. The Brown conductor controls the Red LED and the Orange
conductor controls the Green LED. LED states are determined by the
access control system option and capability.
