This device has been approved for outdoor use when properly installed with RM
Heater Kit Installation (P.N. 130-915) and the supplied gasket material. Position
the gasket with the RM plate so that the mounting holes are properly aligned.
Ensure that the gasket is placed between the mounting surface and mating
surface of the RM plate. Fasten the RM plate to the mounting surface with the
gasket material in between. Install the gasket so that no gaps or wrinkles are
present.

Grounding and
Shielding
When bus wiring more than one RM-iC reader (Figure 5 ):
1. Attach the shields along the bus together (insulate each connection). Snip off the
shield wire at the end of the bus.
2. Attach the shield to the ground at only one point, the ground stud inside the cabinet
adjacent to the knockout.
3. Attach a local earth ground (18 or 22 gauge) wire to the J5 component.
FIGURE 5. Reader Shield Wiring
Setting Module
Address and
EOL Termination
To set the module address, set SW1 (16 position rotary switch) to a number from one to
eight. Every RM-iC series reader on a bus must have a unique address.
To set RS-485 EOL termination, set SW3-5 to the On (closed) position if the module is
the last unit in the bus. If the module is not last, SW3-5 should be Off (open).
Installing the ARM-1
Relay
Two ARM-1 relay components can be connected to the RM-iC series reader through the
P5 connector (Table 1 ).
P5-1 is the common (+12 VDC) pin for either ARM-1.
P5-2 is the output drive (GND) for the first relay.
P5-3 is the output drive (GND) for the second relay.

NOTE The ARM-1 has not been evaluated by UL.
Installing the Heater RM-iC readers require a heater kit (Model 130-915) when installed outdoors in an
environment and where temperatures may drop below 40° F (5° C).
The Model 130-915 heater kit contains the following parts:
Part # 130-915A is supplied without a transformer. A UL Listed Class 2 transformer
rated output 12 VAC, 40 VA is required for proper installation.
Figure 6 shows RM/heater wiring.

Heater Strip Application
To avoid problems such as placing the strips too far away from the thermostat, not
allowing the thermostat to shut off, or locating the strips too close to the PCB and
causing component over-temperature concerns, follow mounting diagram and
heater strip application instructions.
To apply the heater strip:
1. Clean the attachment surface of the back plate with a solvent such as alcohol (use all
required precautions when handling solvents).
2. Carefully remove the release film from the adhesive.
3. Locate the heater on the clean surface of the back plate exactly as shown in Figure 6.
4. Gently roll in place to remove air bubbles.
5. Allow to remain for 72 hours before use, for maximum adhesion.
Air gaps or bubbles under the heater cause localized overheating and possible heater
burnout. Also, application of adhesives at temperatures below 50° F is not
recommended.
Installing the Thermostat
To install the thermostat:
1. Fasten the thermostat to the RM plate with the body of the device facing the junction
box and the face sitting flat against the RM plate surface.
2. With the back (or outside) surface facing up, align the thermostat such that the screw
holes of the thermostat allow for the 6-32 x 1/4" screws to secure the device to the
RM plate.

3. Use two (Quantity 2) 6-32 x 1/4" screws to mount the thermostat to the RM Plate.
Tighten the screws allowing the thermostat to be sufficiently secured to the plate. Do
not over tighten the screws.
TESTING WITH APC
OR ISTAR
HARDWARE
To test an RM-iC series reader with an apC or iSTAR:
1. Measure the supply voltage to the RM-4.
The voltage can be measured between pin 1 (+12 VDC supply) and pin 4 (ground)
on the P4 connector. The voltage must be +12 VDC (+/-5%).
2. Check the RM-iC reader address setting.
The RM-iC must be set to an unused address, between 1 and 8, when connected to
the apC or iSTAR. Use rotary switch SW1 to set the reader address.
3. Check the RM-4 for communications to the apC or iSTAR. Observe LED2 and
LED3.
4. Check the supervised inputs. Configure the inputs on the apC or iSTAR.
With no switches or resistors connected to the supervised input 1 and 2 lines, the C•
CURE 800/8000 Monitoring Program should report inputs as “Open Loop”. When
you connect the 1,000-ohm resistor to the input terminals, the C• CURE 800/8000
Monitoring Program should report that the input as “Deactivated”. Supervised
inputs #1 is found at pins 4 and 5 of P5. Supervised input #2 is found at pins 6 and 7
of P5.
5. Check the outputs.
The outputs can be functionally tested by using the “momentary activate” feature in
the C• CURE 800/8000 Monitoring Program. When the outputs are momentarily
activated, the signal will change state for a few seconds. A 1,000 ohm resistor and an
LED can be connected to the output to obverse the functionality. Connect the
resistor to pin 1 of P5 (+12VDC). Connect the anode of the LED to the resistor and
connect the cathode to pin 2 of P5 for output #1 and to pin 3 of P5 for output #2.
6. Check the reader interface.
The reader interface can only be tested with the reader chosen for the installation.
Reading a card will cause the display to show “Access Granted” or “Access
Denied”, depending upon the clearance of the card.
