PRX-40B Introduction This manual deals with the PRX-40/B Proximity Access controller, one of Synel's series of compact contactless proximity units. PRX-40/B is a stand-alone unit developed as a compact easy-to-use proximity terminal, to be installed at strategic locations in order to grant access to secure zones.
The proximity units enclosure is a sealed IP44 enclosure and contains a small loop antenna, a transmitter and a detector, both connected to a loop antenna. In addition to operating as an access terminal, PRX-40 B includes additional circuitry for storing card- holder data.
Installation General The PRX-40 B proximity unit is installed at sensitive locations in order to grant access to secure areas. The back panel of the unit serves as an installation template, to mark the location of the screws. Mounting screws and plugs are also provided.
PRX-40B Mounting the unit Select a location for the terminal using the following guidelines for finding the best location: Hold the mounting template to the wall and mark the places to drill holes for the screws and cables. Drill the holes for the connection cable and screws (with 6mm. drill bit). Inset the screw anchors for either plaster or concrete, as needed.
