1 Introducon
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 informaon to the Gallagher Controller and acts upon informaon sent
from the Gallagher Controller. The reader itself does not make any access decisions.
The reader is available in four variants. The supported technologies and compability for each variant is
shown in the table below.

2.1 Shipment contents
Check the shipment contains the following items:
• 1 x Gallagher T10 Reader facia assembly
• 1 x Gallagher T10 Reader bezel
• 1 x M3 Torx Post Security screw
• 2 x 25 mm No.6 self tapping, pan head, Phillips drive xing screws
• 2 x 40 mm No.6 self tapping, pan head, Phillips drive xing screws
2.2 Power supply
The Gallagher T10 Reader is designed to operate over a supply voltage range of 9 - 16 Vdc
measured at the terminals. The operang current draw is dependant on the supply voltage at
the reader. The power source should be linear or a good quality switched-mode power supply.
The performance of the reader may be aected by a low quality, noisy power supply.
2.3 Cabling
The Gallagher T10 Reader requires a minimum cable size of 4 core 24 AWG (0.2 mm
2
) 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. Although the reader is specied to operate at 9 Vdc,
for good engineering design it is recommended that the voltage at the reader should be
approximately 12 Vdc.
