Wiring – Good Practices
Please observe these important suggestions when wiring the LR-911 reader – or any low-voltage products
or systems.
•
Connect wires in this sequence:
First ........... ground connections.
Second....... general wiring – data lines, control lines.
Third.......... power. (Be certain that all other wires are connected before applying power.)
•
The LR-911 has, in effect, 3 separate ground connections –
black wire to the power supply’s negative,
blue wire to the panel’s data common, and
drain wire to the shield of the cable between reader and panel.
Do not connect these three wires together. Do not earth-ground any of these wires.

B. PRE-INSTALLATION TESTING
1. Introduction
Careful preparation is important for successful installation of AWID’s long-range readers and tags.
Each moment spent at the installer’s shop preparing for the actual work at the installation site will pay
dividends. For additional information and technical support, contact AWID at support@awid.com
or phone toll-free 800-369-5533 (outside the United States, 845-369-8800).
2. Items for Bench Testing
AWID’s long-range reader and tags are tested easily using only the items listed below. It is not necessary
to interface the reader to a controller panel or reader-input module while conducting this test.
•
•
•
LR-911 reader (does not contain an LED)
• SP-6820-LR test unit, cable with 3 clips *
GMWS windshield tag attached to glass *
• PS12-1A power module, cable with 2 clips *
MT metal-mounting tag *
• Wiring diagram, Figure 1 (on page 7)
* A component of the LRIN Installation Kit
3. Supporting the Reader
The reader’s “surveillance zone” (that is, the effective RF field in which the long-range tags
can be detected) is maximized when there is no material in front of the reader or immediately to the sides
of the reader. See the LR-911 Surveillance Zone Diagram (attached).
•
Hang the reader on a clear vertical surface in an open space, about 4 feet above the bench top,
4 feet from a side wall, and 4 feet below the ceiling.
•
Æ Connect the wires as shown in the wiring diagram, Figure 1 (on page 7). Read the notes carefully.
•
Be sure that unused wires are touching nothing. Do not cut off unused wires yet.
•
The first connection made should be the reader’s black (electrical ground) wire.
•
The last step should be to plug in the DC power module.
4. Wiring for Quick Test
Æ See the wiring diagram, Figure 1, and notes (on page 7).
Proper operation of the reader and tags is indicated by a signal from the SP-6820-LR test unit each time
that the tag is read. The LED changes briefly from standby Red to Green, and a short beep (4 kHz tone)
is heard. If the tag remains in the reader’s surveillance zone, reads repeat at about 3 per second
(factory default rate).
5. Holding the Tag
•
Hold the GMWS test tag by pressing the opposite edges of the glass rectangle between the thumb and
middle fingertip, with the hand behind the glass (away from the reader). Or …
•
Hold the MT tag by pressing either end of the tag at the screw hole between thumb and finger tips.
•
Hold either tag so that the face of the tag is approximately parallel with the reader’s face. (The reader
is circular-polarized, so the tags may be held at any angle – up-and-down, or side-to-side, or diagonal.)
•
Move the tag slowly though the surveillance zone in front of the reader, observing the edges of the zone
and the point of maximum read range.

C. INSTALLING AT THE SITE
1. Introduction
Before installing the long-range readers and tags, the rest of the application system is usually in place
and tested. The system components for each entrance are commonly –
• Computer with the application program
• Safety loop detector beyond the gate or door
• Controller panel and reader-input module
• Ground loop to detect approaching vehicles
• Gate or door operator (control and motor)
• System power source
• Status switch for gate or door
• Cabling in conduit
• Exit-request device
These wiring instructions are for the LR-911 reader’s Wiegand-protocol interface, using Data-0 and Data-1
wires (like most readers in access control). Note: LR-911 wiring is not the same as a 125 kHz
proximity reader; follow the wiring diagram, Figure 2 on page 8. If a serial interface using RS-232
protocol will be used, please request AWID’s memo on RS-232 Reader Interface.
Collect these items to install the readers and tags at the site –
• LR-911 readers
• LRIN installation kit
• Mounting brackets or housings for readers
• Installation instructions, LR-911 Part 2
• WS and MT tags
Contact AWID at support@awid.com; phone toll-free 800-369-5533 (outside the U.S., 845-369-8800).
2. Installing LR-911 Readers
a. Plan ahead. Before starting installation at the site, plan the layout.
Instructions, Part 1: Planning the System.
See AWID’s LR-911
b. Keep the reader assembled. Do not remove the aluminum plate behind the reader. Do not remove
the plastic cover of the reader. Do not tighten or loosen the screws through the cover.
c. Attach the LRMB mounting bracket to the reader’s aluminum plate using 2 screws (supplied).
d. To use a different mounting device, make an adapter plate or bracket that lets you fasten
your mounting device to the two capture nuts near the center of the reader’s aluminum plate
(1/4”-20 thread). Do not drill holes through the reader’s aluminum plate. The mounting device
must allow pan & tilt adjustment for the reader.
e. Watch the installation space. The reader may be mounted on any material including metal,
but there must be open space in front of the reader and to its sides. There must be no material
interfering with the reader’s surveillance zone between the reader and the tags’ location.
f.
Measure the mounting height. With WS tags, it is typically 7 feet above the vehicle lane.
g. Watch the environment. Stay away from UHF communications devices. Avoid fluorescent
lighting fixtures by 3 or 4 feet. Keep neighboring long-range readers on parallel lanes at least
12 feet apart, with their surveillance zones parallel. Do not have LR-911 readers facing each other
(but “back-to-back” is OK).
h. Avoid proximity readers. Keep the LR-911 reader about 8 feet from MR-1824 readers, and
2 to 4 feet from smaller proximity readers.
i.
Fasten the reader’s adjustable bracket or housing to the pole, post, pedestal, wall or ceiling.
j.
Aim the reader approximately so that a perpendicular line (axis) from the center of the front face
of the reader points toward the planned location of tags on the vehicles when they are detected.
This usually requires that the reader be adjustable downward between 25 and 35 degrees (“tilt”),
and toward the vehicle lane (“pan”).
Instructions LR-911, Part 2

3. Wiring the Reader
Cable between the LR-911 reader and the controller panel should be –
• Not twisted-pair *
• 6 conductors
• Color-coded insulation
• 22 gauge (18 gauge is OK)
• Stranded wire
• Overall 100% shielded
•
•
High quality
Maximum length – 500 ft
* If the cable is twisted pair, combine ground (black wire) with one data line (green or white wire) in one twisted pair, and
combine DC power (red wire) with the other data line in a second twisted pair. This prevents crosstalk on the data lines.
Æ See the wiring diagram, Figure 2, and notes (on page 8).
4. Aiming the Reader
This step should be taken before the tags are installed on the vehicles. Use the SP-6820-LR test unit and
the GMWS windshield tag mounted on glass (parts of the LRIN installation kit) and the wiring diagram.
The reader does not have to be interfaced with the host system (but they may be connected). Use the DC
power module from the LRIN installation kit only if the independent DC power supply is not yet connected.
Æ See the wiring diagram, Figure 1, and notes (on page 7).
Procedure:
a. With no vehicle present, hold the GMWS or MT tag in the approximate location of tags after
they are finally attached to the vehicles. For best read range, see Section B.5, Holding the Tag.
b. With the tag held as described above, adjust the pan and tilt angles of the reader until
the SP-6820-LR test unit indicates most robust reading. (Occasional reads will be missed normally
because of the frequency-hopping feature of the LR-911 reader.)
c. Map the extent of the reader’s surveillance zone by moving the tag side-to-side slowly through
the zone and along the axis from the reader’s front face.
5. Installing Tags
WS tags: Follow instructions in “Vehicle Mounting Recommendations for Windshield Tag (WS)”.
•
To identify a good location for a WS tag, it may be pressed by hand, with the peelable label still
on the tag, against the inside of the windshield close to the reader. The tag may be secured temporarily
by masking tape or electrical tape. Try the tag in both “portrait” and “landscape” orientation.
•
WS tags must be firmly attached on the inside of vehicle windshield glass to assure rated read range.
Expose the tag’s adhesive by peeling off the unprinted label from one side of the tag.
Then press the edges of the tag (not the center) firmly by the fingers against the windshield glass.
•
Do not put the tag in a pouch, or attach it by tape, or hold it by hand, or place it on the dashboard.
Do not attempt to move the tag from one vehicle to another. It is designed for a single installation.
•
Caution: Any metal content in or on the windshield where the WS tag is attached can severely limit the
read range. Find the location on the windshield where the tag performs best. Then re-aim the reader.
MT tags: Follow instructions in “Vehicle Mounting Recommendations for Metal Mount (MT) Tags”.
•
MT tags offer flexibility in use. They may be attached to a flat surface outside a vehicle, trailer,
container or pallet, or set on a dashboard, or held by the fingers. Try the tag in both “portrait” and
“landscape” orientation.
•
MT tags may be attached by spreading a thin layer of silicone adhesive behind the adhesive on the back
of the tag, and pressing it on the surface, or by screwing the ends of the tag to the surface using
non-metallic screws.

D. TESTING THE INSTALLATION – OFFLINE
At any time after AWID’s long-range products have been installed on the system, the LR-911 readers
may be tested independently of the host system, using the LRIN installation kit. This allows the installer
to isolate the reader and tags from other aspects of the installation.
a. Disconnect the LR-911 reader from the cable that connects it to the controller panel.
b. Temporarily connect the SP-6820-LR test unit and the PS12-1A power module (or a back-up
battery) to the reader’s wires, as in Section B, Pre-Installation Testing (page 3) and Figure 1 (page 7).
c. Test operation of the reader using hand-held GMWS and MT tags. If these tests are good …
d. Test operation of the reader using the tags that are mounted on the vehicles.
e. Use the results of these tests to identify any problem in the system.
E. TESTING THE READER AND TAGS – SERIAL INTERFACE TO PC
The LR-911 reader has wires for both serial interface by RS-232, and Wiegand interface. The reader
transmits data on both interfaces simultaneously. Reader data output can be checked using the serial
adapter cable in the LRIN installation kit. For this test, the reader’s Wiegand Data-0 and Data-1 wires
may be either connected or disconnected. Several test modes are available (see paragraphs 1 and 2 below).
Æ See the wiring diagram, Figure 3, and notes (on page 7).
1. Microsoft Windows HyperTerminal
a. Attach the 9-pin “D” connector on the adapter cable to the PC’s serial input port.
b. Connect the spring clips on the adapter cable to the wires on the LR-911 reader –
Orange to Violet, Blue to Blue, and Violet to Orange.
c. Run HyperTerminal on the PC. The path in Microsoft Windows is:
Start Æ Programs Æ Accessories Æ Communications Æ HyperTerminal Æ Hypertrm.exe.
Configuration: 9,600 bits per second, 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, ASCII emulation.
d. The tag’s code is listed on the monitor as a string of ASCII characters (not the Wiegand-formated
code that is printed on the tag’s label).
2. AWID’s Demonstration/Test Software
Follow the instructions for the “Reader Output Demonstration and Timing Setup Program”,
which is available upon request from AWID as a DOC file attached to e-mail.
F. TESTING THE INSTALLATION – ONLINE
While the LR-911 reader is connected to the controller panel, and while the host system is operating,
the installer may observe operation of the LR-911 reader at the reader by connecting the SP-6820-LR
test unit to the reader’s wires, as in Section B, Pre-Installation Testing (pages 3 and 7). This is helpful
if the host system is at a distance from the reader.

NOTES for Figure 1
1. Separate the unused wires. Keep the unused wires isolated.
2. On some earlier LR-911 readers, the spring clip on the orange wire of the test unit must connect
to the reader’s violet wire. If the orange-to-orange connection does not work, use an
orange-to-violet connection.
NOTES for Figure 3
1. When running Microsoft HyperTerminal, tie the reader’s yellow wire to the black wire.
When running AWID’s LR-911 programs, leave the yellow wire unconnected.
2. On some earlier LR-911 readers, the orange and violet spring clips of the adapter cable must be
reversed – orange-to orange and violet-to-violet instead of the connections shown in Figure 3.
Instructions LR-911, Part 2
14 September 2005
Page 8 of 8
NOTES for Figure 2
1. Unused wires: Separate the unused wires (orange, violet and brown). Tape them off singly.
2. Arming:
o To arm the reader permanently, tie the yellow wire to the black wire at the reader.
o To arm the reader only when an approaching vehicle is over a ground loop, ground the yellow
wire when the vehicle is over the ground loop by connecting it to the ground loop’s relay.
o To disarm the reader, let the yellow wire float (connected to nothing).
3. Data lines: o Connect the blue wire to the reader port’s “Data Common” or “Signal Return”
terminal, if there is one.
o If not, connect the blue wire to the reader port’s “Electrical Ground” terminal.
o Be sure that the green, white and blue Data wires all go to the same reader port on the panel.
4. Drain: Tie the reader’s drain wire (with clear insulation) to the cable’s shield, but do not ground
the shield anywhere.
5. Chassis ground:
instructions.
Connect the panel’s ground to earth ground only if listed in the panel’s
6. Power:
o Do not power the LR-911 reader from the reader port’s DC power terminal.
o Use an independent power supply for the readers – a linear regulated DC power supply,
between 7 volts, 1.5 amperes and 15 volts, 0.75 ampere.
o A typical power supply for each reader is 12 volts, 0.75 to 1.0 ampere.
o Use a separate power supply for each reader, or a central power supply for all readers.
7. Electrical grounds: Do not tie grounds for the independent power supply and the panel’s
reader port together. Connect only the reader’s black wire to the independent power supply’s
ground or negative terminal.
8. Tests: Before sealing the cable terminations -o Test no-load voltage at the independent power supply, and
o Test voltage at the reader when it is connected to the power supply, and
o Test reader and tag operation using the LRIN installation kit.
