Mounting
The card reader is intended to provide the reading component of access control, time and attendance and
alarm systems. It is intended to be mounted on a wall with adequate air flow around and through it.
Mounting Instructions
1. Select where to mount the card reader, ensuring it is mounted a minimum of 1.1m (3.5ft) away from other
wiring, such as ACM power, computer data wiring, telephone wiring and wiring to electric lock devices. Use
the template sticker provided with the card reader as a guide to correctly position the unit.
2. Hold the rear case half against the wall and mark the mounting holes and cable entry area. The cable entry
area should align with a hole cut through the plaster wall-board. Cables are intended to be run inside the
wall. Use appropriate screws (not supplied) to affix the case to the wall.
3. Run the wiring. Refer to later sections of this manual for the electrical connections. Leave about 20cm (8") of
wire protruding through the center of the mounted half of the case.
4. Connect the wiring to the reader electronics, then use the top case to press gently on the bottom mounted
case until the screw hole for securing the top and bottom case together lines up.
5. To complete the installation, use the M3 x 8mm Plastite screw provided with the tSec Reader to secure and
fasten the top case to the bottom mounted case.
