In general, you need to consider the access controller, the door locks, the devices, and the need for a network. By the time you are ready to install the system, all of the details presented in the list below should be known. Take a moment to go through them now before starting your installation. During the planning phase, you should determine: 9 What type of authentication is required for your application? 9 How many doors need to be secured? 9 What type of device will be on each door? Doors already inside a secure area might not need the same type or level of security. 9 If multiple V-Series 4G devices require networking for template distribution/management, then a dedicated PC is recommended to administer the system, as well as an RS-485 to RS-232 converter, and cabling for serial communications or cabling for Ethernet. 9 Verify that the chosen access controller supports the Wiegand formats supported by V-Station 4G devices. 9 Identify all wiring by the signal levels it is to carry. Use separate cables and conduits for different signal groups to avoid cross talk. Plan to separate them by these groups: Power distribution: Wires carry power to devices, door strikes, etc. Data communication: RS-485, RS-232, USB, Wiegand, Ethernet, etc. Signal: Door contact, request-to-exit push button, alarm input, etc. 9 When planning device placement, determine the distance limitation of each signal type and use repeaters if necessary.

They can therefore function on their own or as part of a larger access control system. System component selection is specific to each installation, but a minimum system would consist of a finger-scan device mounted on or near an access point, an electric lock, and cabling. A more complex system might consist of devices at multiple access points (each with an electric door lock), a multi-point controller, networking, and a PC to run the access controller and SecureAdmin Server software. See the diagram below for an example (non-Ethernet) system diagram.

Final connections to the device are explained in more detail in Chapter 4. To avoid externally generated transients, do not run any wires near utility AC power wiring, lightning rod grounding wire, etc. Grounding equipment is required for ESD protection and safety. 2.1.6 CHOOSE NETWORK TYPE If your installation requires the use of network communications, then the choice of cable, the cable run length, the network topology, and the termination of the network are important aspects that must be considered. The V-Station 4G and V-Flex 4G devices can be networked using RS-232, RS-485, or Ethernet protocols. The table below outlines relevant parameters of the RS-485, RS-232, and 100 baseT Ethernet communication protocols.

With RS-232 at 9600 baud, a distance of 150 feet is possible with shielded cable, but at 56 Kbps, a maximum of only 20 feet is recommended. 2.1.6.2 RS-485 RS-485 has two distinct advantages over the more common RS-232. First, it allows you to connect up to 31 4G devices to a PC with an external RS-232 to RS-485 converter (available from L-1 Identity Solutions). Second, the RS-485 specification allows for cable run lengths up to 4000 feet (1200 meters) at modest baud rates. An RS-485 network is required instead of RS-232 if: 9 Multiple devices must be connected together so that templates can be distributed among the devices 9 The installation has only a single device, but it is over 150 feet (45 meters) from the host PC. 2.1.6.2.1 RS-485 CABLE SPECIFICATION V-Station 4G devices provide a 2-wire, half-duplex RS-485 interface. The main cable run should be low capacitance, twisted-pair cable, with approximately 120 -ohm characteristic impedance. Category-5 rated communications cable is used in RS-485 networks and its characteristics are defined below. This is the recommended cabling for RS-485 communications. The cable connection includes a differential line (+ and -) and a GND connection.
October152009–InstallationGuideDraft–EditPurposesOnlyPage27 Installation Guide – October 2009 – Edit Purposes Only 2009 Table 2-2 Category 5 Cable Characteristics Specification Recommendation Capacitance (conductor to conductor) <20 pF/ft. Characteristic Impedance 100 - 120 ohms Nominal DC resistance <100 ohms/1000 ft. Wire gauge 24 AWG stranded Conductors/Shielding >2 pair (shielding is recommended) 2.1.6.2.2 RS-485 CABLE LENGTHS As outlined in the RS-485 specification, the total length of the communication cable (adding up all of the segments of the run) should not exceed 1200 meters (4000 feet). Although the RS-485 specification calls for a maximum cable length of 1200 meters and provides a maximum baud rate well above that of the 4G device, a more conservative system should be configured to no more than 1000 meters and run at a baud rate of 9600 bits per second. After the network is configured and is running in a stable manner, the baud rate can be increased if faster network communications are desired. Drops (down-leads, stubs, T-connections, etc.) to equipment are not recommended, but if required, should not exceed one foot) and should use the same cable recommended above. On a long stub, a signal that travels down the wire reflects to the main line after hitting the input impedance of the device at the end. This impedance is high compared with that of the cable and the net effect is degradation of signal quality on the bus. 2.1.6.2.3 RS-485 NETWORK TOPOLOGY Communication cables for RS-485 should be laid out in a daisy chain configuration (See Figure 2-3 below). Long stubs or drop downs and the star configuration should be avoided because they create discontinuities and degrade signal quality. The star configuration usually does not provide a clean signaling environment even if the cable runs are all of equal length. The star configuration also presents a termination problem, because terminating every endpoint overloads the driver. Terminating only two endpoints solves the loading problem, but creates transmission line problems at the unterminated ends. A true daisy chain configuration avoids these problems.
October152009–InstallationGuideDraft–EditPurposesOnlyPage28 Installation Guide – October 2009 – Edit Purposes Only 2009 NOTICE The device on the end of the network should be terminated with a 120 ohm resistor. Figure 2-3 Network Topologies Star and Daisy Chain Configurations NOTICE A Daisy configuration is recommended over a Star configuration.. 2.1.6.3 ETHERNET If your system is to be configured for use over Ethernet, the wiring will be slightly different. Communication cables for Ethernet logically form a straight line bus but the more devices on that bus, the less efficient the network becomes due to increased collisions, and the weaker the signal will get over distance. Repeaters can be used to boost the signal strength; however, a better solution is to place switches at intermediate positions along the bus. The most common Ethernet topology in use today is the star configuration with a hub or switch in the center. 2.1.6.4 WIRELESSNETWORK DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS A wireless network of V-Station 4G offers several advantages over wired networks, such as convenience, speed of installation, and less wiring. If you are planning to design a wireless network, consider these points: Wireless signal interference Metal masses such as HVAC ducts, fire doors, vents, stairs, etc. disrupt wireless signals. Building and stairwell structures, as well as internal building walls, also impede wireless signals. Some electrical equipment, such as
October152009–InstallationGuideDraft–EditPurposesOnlyPage29 Installation Guide – October 2009 – Edit Purposes Only 2009 microwaves, large-screen TVs, cordless telephones are also known to affect wireless signals. Consider the proximity of devices to these objects. Distance from access points How far a device is from the closest access point plays a major factor in determining the stability and strength of the wireless signal. Multiple Access Points "Repeaters" or multiple access points can solve signal strength problems that may be caused by either distance or loss due to interference. 2.1.7 CHOOSE POWER SOURCE V-Station 4G and V-Flex 4G devices can be powered by several methods: 9 1 2V DC regulated adapter/bullet jack (4G Indoor only) 9 Power Over Internet (POE) through an inline PoE 802.3af power injector 9 Power Over Internet (POE) through an inline PoE36U-1AT-R power injector (4G Extreme with heater only) 9 2-pin mini connector with dedicated power source (4G Indoor only) 9 3-wire cable (4G Extreme). Power sources should be: 9 Isolated from other equipment 9 Filtered 9 Protected by an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) or battery backup 9 Protected by a voltage suppression device if transient electrical surges are an issue in the location. When planning a system, know the power requirement of each device. If multiple devices are to share a common power supply, exercise care to avoid excessive voltage loss on the wires. Voltage loss can lead to communication problems when devices are talking and/or listening on different ground references. Voltage loss is directly proportional to wire resistance and the current the wire carries. Always place the device as close as possible to the power supply and always select a wire size appropriate for the load. V-Station 4G devices run on DC power between 12.5 and 24 VDC. Power requirements for all V-Station 4G and V-Flex 4G models are listed below.

However, power supplies which do not provide isolation (or have high leakage capacitance), coupled with accidental AC power line interchanges, present serious ground fault problems for installers. With a ground fault, the signal reference between subsystems may be 115 VAC apart. If these subsystems are interconnected, the large potential difference can cause equipment damage or personal injury. L-1 Identity Solutions recommends using a dedicated regulated DC power supply. All factory-supplied power supply assemblies are either switching or regulated linear supplies and are isolated for safety and to minimize ground loop problems.

The V-Station 4G device can be flush mounted only. The V-Flex 4G device can be either flush or recess-mounted on a wall. The V-Station 4G Extreme devices are mounted, by use of a stainless steel mounting plate, directly to a wall. 4.1.2 INSTALLING A MOUNTING PLATE The procedure for mounting a wall plate directly to a wall is as follows: Hold the mounting plate onto the wall in the desired location, trace the square hole that will be cut out, and mark the mounting screw locations. Note that for the V-Flex 4G, the large square hole is at the bottom and for the V-Station 4G the hole is to the right. Cut out the square hole with a jigsaw or drywall saw. If the V-Flex 4G device is to be recess-mounted, cut out a hole in the drywall to accommodate the rear extension on the device housing. Drill holes for the nylon wall anchors and install them. Fish wires through the wall to the square hole. Align the hole in the wall plate with the hole in the wall. Fasten the mounting plate to the nylon wall anchors in the wall with the provided screws. If the V-Flex 4G device is to be recess-mounted on an electrical box, a double gang box is required to accept the rear extension of the housing. If mounting the V-Station 4G device to an electrical box, attach the mounting plate to a single

Hold the device against the plate and gently press it in a downward direction to engage the hooks. Insert the star-shaped screw at the bottom center of the mounting plate and tighten with the wrench provided. Do not over-tighten. For the V-Station 4G, hold the device with the top slightly tilted toward you, at about a 30-degree angle to the wall. Hold the bottom of the device against the mounting plate and lower it so that the two hooks on the bottom of the mounting plate engage the corresponding slots on the device. When the hooks are properly engaged, the top of the device can be pivoted up against the mounting plate. It will drop down slightly, locking itself in the closed position, and should be secured in this position with the star-shaped screws in the holes at the right and left ends on the bottom of the device. Do not over-tighten. With the securing screws removed, the V-Station 4G device can be pivoted down 90 degrees from the wall, to allow access for making connections, etc. The device can be removed from the mounting plate by tilting it at an angle approximately 30 degrees to the wall and gently lifting it up off the hooks on the mounting plate.

October152009–InstallationGuideDraft–EditPurposesOnlyPage55 Installation Guide – October 2009 – Edit Purposes Only 2009 WARNING The internal relay is limited to a maximum current of 170 mA. If the deadbolt/ doorstrike to be controlled draws more than 170 mA, damage to the device may occur. If the deadbolt/door strike load exceeds 170 mA, an external relay must be used, as described below. Do not use the same power supply to power a V-Series 4G device and a door strike. Assuming the current drawn by the deadbolt/door strike is less than 170 mA, the connections between the V-Station 4G or V-Flex 4G device, deadbolt/door strike, and power supply for the deadbolt/door strike should be made. Note that a snubber diode (1 N4007 or equivalent) must be connected across the deadbolt/door strike to protect the DC power supply from inductive kickback. CAUTION The snubber diode and DC power supply for the deadbolt/door strike are not supplied with the V-Station 4G and V-Flex 4G devices. The power supply should be specified in accordance with the voltage and current requirements of the deadbolt/door strike, but it must be ensured that the current to operate the dead bolt/door strike does not exceed 170 mA. If the current required to operate the deadbolt/door strike exceeds 170 mA, an external relay must be used in conjunction with the V-Station 4G or V-Flex 4G device. The external relay must be specified so that its contacts are rated to carry the current required by the deadbolt/door strike, and that the current required to operate its energizing coil is within the 170 mA capacity of the V-Station 4G or V-Flex 4G device's internal relay.

Chapter Index 5.1 SYSTEM START-UP PROCEDURES To avoid the need for difficult troubleshooting, system start-up must follow this step-by-step procedure. Never wire up a system and apply power to it all at once. SYSTEM START-UP OVERVIEW L-1 Identity Solutions recommends always following these system start-up steps: Do not apply power to any device. Check all wiring and device configurations. Disconnect all devices from the communication line. Check the supply voltage for correct voltage. Power up the PC running SecureAdmin. Power up the RS-232 to RS-485 converter (if installed). Configure SecureAdmin. Perform a ground fault check for the converter (if installed). Connect the PC and converter (if installed) to the communication line. Verify that the device powers up correctly, but do not connect it to the communication line. The power LED should be illuminated. Check the power lines with a voltmeter. Perform a ground fault check for the device (if using RS-485, see below). Connect the device to the communication line. Verify that the device communicates with SecureAdmin. If there are more device, repeat Steps 10 through 13 for each device. 5.1.1 DEVICE CONFIGURATION CHECK Devices must be configured correctly before they can communicate. Common problems include incorrect Host Port Protocol settings, mismatched Baud rates, and incorrect

Each device sharing a communication line must have a unique device Network ID. 5.1.2 RS-232 TO RS-485 CONVERTER GROUND FAULT CHECK Before a device can be connected to an RS-485 subsystem, it must be checked for ground faults. An uncorrected ground fault can damage all devices connected to the RS-485 communication line. To check for a ground fault on the RS-232 to RS-485 converter: 3. Apply power to the RS-232 to RS-485 converter. Connect the signal ground of the RS-485 line through a 10k ohm current-limiting resistor to the signal ground of the RS-232 to RS-485 converter. There should be no more than 1 volt across the resistor. 5.1.3 DEVICE GROUND FAULT CHECK To check for a ground fault on a new V-Station 4G or V-Flex 4G device: 4. Apply power to all devices already successfully connected to the RS-485 line. Power up the new device but do not connect it to the RS-485 line. Connect the signal ground of the RS-485 line through a 10k ohm current-limiting resistor to the signal ground of the V-Station 4G device. There should be no more than 1 volt across the resistor. If there is, find and clear the fault. Repeat Steps 1 through 3 with each of the RS-485 signal lines (+ and -). Connect the new device to the RS-485 line only if no ground fault is found.

The sensor surface should be cleaned periodically for performance, aesthetic, and hygienic reasons. Care must be taken when cleaning the sensor to prevent dam-aging the sensor surface or surrounding components. To clean the fingerprint sensor in a V-Station 4G or V-Flex 4G device: 9. Remove the electrical power from the device. Moisten (do not saturate) a clean cotton swab or a lint-free cloth with rubbing (Isopropyl) alcohol. CAUTION Do not use chlorine-based cleaners, such as bleach, or chlorine-based bath-room or mildew cleaners. Chlorine-based cleaners will not adversely affect the fingerprint sensor, but they could damage the electronic circuitry sur-rounding the fingerprint sensor. Do not use solvents such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, lacquer thinner, etc. Solvents will not adversely affect the sensor, but they are likely to damage the reader housing or other peripheral components.
October152009–InstallationGuideDraft–EditPurposesOnlyPage75 Installation Guide – October 2009 – Edit Purposes Only 2009 WARNING Never use products such as abrasive cleaning powders, steel wool, scouring pads, or fine sandpaper to clean the sensor surface. These types of cleaning products will damage the sensor surface. Rub the sensor surface with the moistened cotton swab or lint-free cloth. Do not allow the cleaning product to drip onto any electronic components near the sensor. Rub the sensor with a clean dry cotton swab or lint-free cloth to remove any traces of clean-ing product. Reconnect power to the device. NOTICE Disposable ESD-safe wipes, such as ACL Staticide wipes, can be used to disinfect the sensor and buttons on a daily (or even more frequent) basis. Be aware that some wipes might not offer the same cleaning power as the prod-ucts mentioned above and thus should not be relied upon to thoroughly re-move all residue. Use of wipes does, however, helps keep sensor and button surfaces hygienic and makes an excellent complement to periodic cleaning.
