Panel Settings
Output Power
This screen enables you to control the output power level of the
connected Antenna Panel.
The higher the power setting, the more current is drawn from the
batteries.
Note: You must use the highest power setting if you are reading
FDX tags.
If you have multiple Electronic Controller installed on the site AND
are only reading HDX tags you may reduce the power setting. This
will minimise the interference between Electronic Controller and
extend the battery life.

Page 76
The Extension cable is part of the Antenna Panel circuit so keep
away from large metal surfaces.
Ensure the Electronic Controller mounting location provides
protection from being knocked or damaged by animals.
Ensure the Extension cable is run so it can not be damaged or
tripped over.
Protect the Extension cable from damage from the environment,
animals, people or weather. Avoid mounting the Extension cable
in wet areas.
**BR Series only** - The Gallagher SmartReader BR Series
Electronic Controller needs to be able to be removed to recharge
the internal batteries.
The extension cable length is 4 m.

Procedure
1. Determine the location of the Electronic Controller based on the
above considerations.
2. Using the supplied metal tek screws attach the mounting bracket
to a solid mounting location using at least two of the holes in the
mounting bracket.
The two sets of two holes allows for installation on horizontal and
vertical pipe work.
3. Run the Extension cable from the Electronic Controller to the
Antenna Panel along the proposed path and temporarily fasten the
cable in place.
4. Ensure the Electronic Controller is turned off.
5. On the Antenna Panel, unscrew the Amphenol connector locking
nut from the Amphenol socket and pull it down to unplug from the
Antenna Panel.
6. Connect the Extension cable to the Amphenol connector and
tighten.

7. Mount the Electronic Controller on the mounting bracket by
grasping the Electronic Controller on both sides and slide the back
handle onto the mounting bracket.
8. Connect the Extension cable to the Amphenol socket on the side
of the Electronic Controller and tighten the locking nut.
9. Once the Extension cable location is finalised, attach the cable
permanently using cable ties.
The SmartReader is now ready to use.
