Power supply requirements
Each Prox Plus Mifare reader consumes 200 mA from a 13.6 V
± 15% DC supply.
Use a linear-regulator power source.
Note:
Switch mode power supplies are not recommended as they may
reduce the read range of the Prox Plus Mifare reader.
Firmware
The reader firmware has two variants. These are set out in the
table.
Firmware identification Capability
vR1.06 and earlier Reads Philips Mifare 1K cards.
vR2.05 and later Reads Philips Mifare 1K cards

Cabling
The Prox Plus Mifare reader uses the Cardax IV communications
system. It can be connected to the following equipment:
Cardax FT Controller 3000
Cardax FT Reader I/O Interface
Cardax FT URI
Use 4 core, 0.2 mm² (AWG 24) cabling with a maximum nominal
capacitance of 120 pF/m.
With this type of cable, the maximum distance between the Prox
Plus Mifare reader and the device to which it connects is 200 m
(650 ft).
Distance between proximity readers
The distance separating any two proximity readers must not be less
than 200 mm in all directions.
200 mm
Part number 3C4480 R10 5
May 2005
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
200 mm away.
Attaching the base plate
Note:
The Prox Plus Mifare reader has been designed to metric
specifications. Any imperial measurements shown in this document
are approximate.
The Prox Plus Mifare reader is designed to be mounted on any solid
flat surface including metal surfaces.
The recommended mounting height for the Prox Plus Mifare reader
is 1100 mm from floor level to the centre of the reader device.
However this may vary in some countries and you should check
local regulations for variations to this height.
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
(1½ inches).
Run the building cabling through the base.
6 Part number 3C4480 R10
May 2005
Press the base extrusion into the 20 mm (3/4 inch) hole and secure
the base to the mounting surface using the four fixing screws.
Fit the screw caps over each fixing screw. The screw caps prevent
water from entering the reader via the fixing holes. The caps must
be installed for the Prox Plus Mifare reader to comply with the
environmental specification.
Note:
It is very important that the base of the reader is flush with and tight
against the mounting surface. If you are mounting the Prox Plus
Mifare reader on a rough surface you should make the surface as
smooth as possible under the reader and up to 25 mm (1 inch)
around the reader.
Note:
The grommet through which the cables feed into the base of the
Prox Plus Mifare reader helps to keep the device waterproof.

READER
You can connect the building cable to the reader in either of two
ways:
use the four-pin socket and cord supplied with the reader and
join the cord to the building cabling; or
provide your own Molex 6471 crimp terminal socket and
terminate the building cable directly to it.
In either case, ensure that you use the socket grommet supplied with
the reader.
If you supply your own socket, use the cable terminating tool. The
tool has a head (Part No. C861145) and handle (Part No. C861115).
Pin number 4 of the socket feeds into the cable terminating tool
first.
The other end of the building cable connects to one of the
following:
Cardax FT Controller 3000
Cardax FT Reader I/O Interface
Cardax FT URI
8 Part number 3C4480 R10
May 2005
Connecting to the Cardax FT Controller 3000
The Cardax FT Controller 3000 interfaces the following types of
reader into the Cardax FT Command Centre system:
Cardax IV readers, including Prox Plus Mifare readers
Wiegand readers
Each Cardax FT Controller 3000 can interface up to eight Prox Plus
Mifare readers into the Cardax FT Command Centre system.
The ports to which the Prox Plus Mifare reader can connect are set
up as four distinct groups (numbered 1 to 4). Each group provides
connection for two Prox Plus Mifare readers or other Cardax IV
readers. Refer to the following diagram for the location of the ports
on the Cardax FT Controller 3000.

Note:
Within each group, you cannot mix Cardax IV readers with
Wiegand Readers. This is because connecting one Wiegand reader
requires all four pins on plug PB. For example, if you connect a
Prox Plus Mifare reader to Port 1 of Group 1, Port 2 of Group 1 can
only connect to another Cardax IV reader.
The terminating resistors (J1 for Group 1, J2 for Group 2, etc.) must
NOT be fitted for those groups to which Prox Plus Mifare readers
are connected.
Connecting to the Cardax FT Reader I/O Interface
The Cardax FT Reader I/O Interface has connections for up to
sixteen Prox Plus Mifare readers or other Cardax IV readers.
The Prox Plus Mifare reader connects to either plug PA or PB in
Groups 1 to 8.
Make the connections from the Prox Plus Mifare reader to the
Reader I/O interface as shown:

Fitting the facia
1. Press the Molex 6471 socket onto the four pin plug on the
interconnect board.
2. Push the interconnect board into the base plate so that the
Molex 6471 socket beds into the grommet.
3. Push the interconnect board further until it is captured by the
clips on the base plate.
4. Slide the facia attachment lugs into the guides at the rear of the
base plate.
5. On the front of the facia, press down on the Cardax label until
the security screw hole lines up with the M4 threaded hole
underneath the base plate.
6. Pass the M4 security screw through the hole in the facia and use
a tamper-resistant Torx-head tool to drive it into the threaded
hole in the base plate.
Removing the facia
1. Using a tamper-resistant Torx-head tool, remove the M4
security screw from the underside of the facia.
2. Pull the base of the facia away from the base plate.
3. Slide the facia's attachment lugs out of the guides at the rear of
the base plate.
