Extended Range Reader
Operation and Installation Instructions
Features Description
The KeyPAC Extended Range (PAC Part Number 20442 or K3004) proximity reader is an
accessory commonly used on a majority of access control systems. The reader uses pre-encoded
ISO proximity cards (PAC Part Number 21030). Each card is encoded with a unique code that
outputs a serial number to the access control system.
The Extended Range reader is weather resistant and suitable for indoor or outdoor use. Cards are
read at a distance of up to 10 inches.
This reader is also available in white by ordering PAC Part Number 20441 or K3004W.
How the Reader is Used
The Extended Range reader is connected to a reader input on a door controller, time and
attendance unit or control panel, that can accept a PAC format, Wiegand 26/ 32/ 64 Bit format or
ANSI Magstripe format. The reader detects and reads the unique embedded coding from each
ISO card when it is presented within approx 10 inches of the reader. The reader will then output
this coding, that has been received by the card, to the receiving door controller, time and
attendance unit or control panel.
• Easy Installation
• Reads ISO Cards (PAC P.N. 21030)
• Status LED indicates Access Authorised
• Rated for Indoor and Outdoor use
• Offered in Black or White
• Up to 10 inch Reading Range

How the Reader Operates
The reader has LEDs to indicate status. When the red LED is on the reader is ready to read a
card and output the coding to the control panel. When a valid card is read the output will begin
sending the information to the control panel. If the card is valid, the control panel will activate and
output to the reader turning the red LED off and the green LED on. This change of the LED will
most commonly indicate a Access Granted condition or an acknowledgment that the control panel
has received and logged the coding from the card.
Items Included with the Extended Range Reader

Installing the Reader
Choose the Best Mounting Location for the User
The normal height for the reader is approximately 48 inches (four feet) from the floor, on the
unhinged side. Check local regulations regarding proper mounting locations for disabled or
handicapped persons.
Mount the reader on any firm flat surface. Avoid mounting the reader on rough textured surfaces.
There must be a distance of at least 36 inches (three feet) between two readers. Therefore, if
using readers to control entry and exit from an area, they must be mounted on opposite sides of
the door.
No special precautions are needed if the reader is mounted outside, as it is fully encapsulated. The
connections made to the flying lead, however, may need protection.
Route the Cable
Install the reader up to 200 feet from the Control Panel or Wiegand Interface Unit using 22 AWG
wire or up to 500 feet using 18 AWG wire. Run a five or six wire cable from the controlling unit to
the reader mounting location.
Protect the reader cable from EMI: Do not route the reader cable close to the power lines for
the electric lock. Use shielded cable to eliminate possible interference to the data from the electric
lock.
Splicing the Cable to the Wiring Harness
Use the crimp connectors provided, or other suitable means such as soldering, to splice the wiring
harness, provided on the reader to the end of the cable. When using 22 AWG cable, you should
twist the wires together and double them over before inserting them in the crimp.

This reader comes in two parts, the reader itself with flying lead, and a front cover.
1. Attach the reader to a flat surface using the #6 screws provided - or a mounting screw
suitable for the material to which the reader is being mounted. The two holes are 60mm
apart. Use the round hole first, and then the oval hole to ensure the reader is straight.
2. Push the front cover onto the reader.
Reader Operation
Normal Operation and LED Control
The reader LED will normally be red when the door or system is in the closed condition. When a
card is presented within range of the reader the code in the card will be read and the coding sent
to the controlling unit. If the card is valid for that door or system at that time the LED will go green
which is controlled by the N.O. relay or LED connection of the Control Panel. The LED will stay
green while the Brown LED wire is shorted to Common.
WARNING: For Output formats other than PAC, the output format of the reader will be
reprogrammed for a PAC system if the White and Brown wires are shorted and power is
applied to the reader. The reader will need to be sent in for repair to have the output format
reset once this has occurred.
Tamper Operation
The Blue wire tamper connection is a normally closed circuit between the blue wire and black wire
common connection. If the cable is cut this connection will go to an open circuit which can be used
to indicate a tamper violation condition.
