Installation Note Part number 3E1100 R16 1 July 2010 CAUTION This equipment contains components that can be damaged by electrostatic discharge. Ensure both you and the equipment are earthed before beginning any servicing. Before you Begin Unpack the Prox Mifare Series (Teardrop) reader and check the shipment contains the following items: • 1 x Prox Mifare Series (Teardrop) reader base • 1 x Prox Mifare Series (Teardrop) reader facia • 1 x printed circuit board (PCB) assembly • 1 x cable assembly • 1 x M3 Torx Post Security screw • 4 x self tapper pozi counter sunk fixing screws (two different lengths) WARNING: You must use the screws provided, as using other types of screws could interfere with the electronics. (See the “Mounting” section later for further explanation.) Firmware Version vMT3.07 (or later) of the Prox Mifare Series (Teardrop) reader firmware code supports the Mifare Enhanced Security feature. This feature provides a method of ensuring that readers reading Mifare cards are able to prevent access through the use of replicated cards, and is optional for customers, (i.e. customers can choose whether to use this enhanced security and which doors to apply it to). The Mifare Enhanced Security feature is only supported when the reader is connected to a Cardax FT Controller 3000 or a Cardax FT GBUS Universal Reader Interface. Prox Mifare Series (Teardrop)
2 Part number 3E1100 R16 July 2010 Power Supply Requirements Power for the Prox Mifare Series (Teardrop) reader is usually taken from the incoming supply of the device to which it is connected. That is, from the: • Cardax FT Controller 3000-4R • Cardax FT Controller 3000 • Cardax FT GBUS Universal Reader Interface (Cardax FT GBUS URI) The supply at the reader should be 13.6 Vdc ± 15% (between 11.5 and 15.6 volts) It is recommended that the voltage should be between 12 and 15 volts to allow for local installation and environmental conditions, to ensure reliable operation. The power source for Prox Mifare Series (Teardrop) readers should only be linear or good quality switched mode power supplies. The performance of the reader may be affected by a low quality, noisy power supply. Cabling The Prox Mifare Series (Teardrop) reader uses the Cardax IV communications system. The reader cable entry grommet is designed to accept 4 core, 0.2mm2 (24 AWG) cable. This cable has an outside diameter of 5mm (1/5 inch). A short tail of this cable is supplied with connector fitted, with each reader. When using a single cable to carry both power supply and data from the source to the reader, both the power supply voltage drop and data requirements must be considered. The cable uses two wires for data and two wires for power supply. Power: The conductor size should be sufficient to ensure that the voltage at the reader terminals is not less that 12 Vdc. Data: The capacitance between any conductors or any conductors and the shield should not exceed a total of 24nF for the entire cable. A twisted pair is recommended for the data circuit. It is recommended that the distance between the control unit and the reader should not exceed 200m (600ft). Choosing a cable The cable chart below lists cable sizes and the maximum length for connecting a single Prox Mifare Series (Teardrop) reader to a Controller and power supply. Cable type Maximum distance * CAT 5 ** 40m (130 ft) 4 x 0.2mm2 (4 x 24 AWG) 40m (130 ft) 4 x 0.5mm2 (4 x 20 AWG) 100m (330 ft) 4 x 1mm2 (4 x 18 AWG) 200m (660 ft) * These distances apply to unshielded cable. If shielded cable is used, the distances will be reduced due to the increased capacitance caused by the shielding.
Part number 3E1100 R16 3 July 2010 ** CAT 5 is not recommended for security systems as this cable has solid copper conductors and is designed for use with RJ45 insulation displacement connectors. Distance between Proximity Readers The distance separating any two proximity readers must not be less than 200mm in all directions. 200 mm When mounting a proximity reader on an internal wall, check that any reader fixed to the other side of the wall is not less than 200mm away. Mounting Note: The Prox Mifare Series (Teardrop) reader has been designed to metric specifications. Therefore any imperial measurements provided are approximate only. The Prox Mifare Series (Teardrop) reader is designed to be mounted on any solid flat surface. However installation on metal surfaces, particularly those with a large surface area will reduce read range. The extent to which the range is reduced will depend upon the type of metal used. To minimise this effect, plastic spacers which may be mounted between the reader and the metal surface are available (Part number C190980). Please contact your local Cardax dealer for more information.
4 Part number 3E1100 R16 July 2010 Note: The grommet through which the cables feed into the base of the Prox Mifare Series (Teardrop) reader helps to keep the unit waterproof. Using the mounting dimensions on the back of this Installation Note as a guide, drill a 20 mm (3/4 inch) diameter hole for the base extrusion through or into the mounting surface to a minimum depth of 40 mm (11/2 in). Drill two pilot holes for the fixing screws. Run the building cabling through the base and grommet. Fit the base to the 20 mm (3/4 inch) hole and secure it to the mounting surface using two of the fixing screws provided. Note: The surface the reader is being attached to will determine which length screws are most appropriate from those provided. WARNING: You must use the screws provided, taking care not to over-tighten them. Make sure that the heads of the counter sunk screws are flush with the top of the holes in the base, and ensure there is clearance for the screw that closes the base and facia together. Failure to do this, and/or using other types of screws could interfere with the electronics.
Part number 3E1100 R16 5 July 2010 Please note that the manufacturers warranty is voided if the electronics are damaged as a result of the incorrect screws being used or installed incorrectly to secure the base. Push the socket back into the grommet. Push the grommet and socket firmly back into the Prox Mifare Series (Teardrop) reader base so that the top of the grommet is slightly below the inside surface of the reader base. Install the PCB assembly into the base. Fit the facia onto the base by clipping the small lip, inside the facia, over the top edge of the base and holding the top, press the bottom of the facia down over the base. If the cover does not fit easily, recheck the position of the grommet and/or the reader. Then insert the M3 x 16 Torx Security Screw (using an M3 Torx Post Security screwdriver) through the hole at the bottom of the facia and into the threaded metal insert in the base to secure the facia. Removal of the facia is a simple reversal of these steps.
6 Part number 3E1100 R16 July 2010 Connections The Prox Mifare Series (Teardrop) reader connects to one of the following: • Cardax FT GBUS URI • Cardax FT Controller 3000-4R • Cardax FT Controller 3000 Use the cable terminating tool to connect the cables to the socket as described in the following sections.
