2.5 ESD (electrostatic discharge) protective measures
NOTICE
Danger for electronic components due to electrostatic discharge.
Improper handling of printed circuit boards or components can cause damages that
lead to complete failures or sporadic errors.
• During installation and repair of the product, the ESD protective measures must
be considered.
• Wear an ESD wristband when handling electronic components. Connect the end
of the wristband to a discharge socket or an unvarnished grounded metal com-
ponent. This way, static charges are discharged from your body securely and ef-
fectively.
• Touch only the edges of circuit boards. Do not touch the circuit board nor the
connector.
• Place all dismantled components on an antistatic surface or in an antistatic con-
tainer.
• Avoid contact between circuit boards and clothing. The wristband only protects
the printed circuit boards against electrostatic discharge from your body, but
there is still a risk of damage through electrostatic discharge from your clothing.
• Transport and dispatch dismantled modules only in electrostatically shielded
protective bags.

3 Product Description
3.1 Overview
The Kaba remote reader 91 25 with functional type AM can either control and moni-
tor access control at access points or register coming/leaving bookings for time regis-
tration.
Two registration units can be connected to the Kaba remote reader 91 25. The re-
mote reader has two RS-232 interfaces (e.g. for keypads, Hyper X or system-depen-
dent functions) and can be integrated into the Kaba exos access control system. The
remote reader is installed on a DIN rail. Thanks to the separation of the remote reader
and registration units, the remote reader can be installed in a tamper-proof area and
the registration units can be installed in an area that is not tamper-proof.
The door components (locking elements, monitoring contacts) are directly con-
nected to the remote reader. This controls the electric strikes as well as the optical
and acoustic signal transmitters of the registration units. As two registration units can
be connected, one Kaba remote reader 91 25 is sufficient for implementing an on/off
configuration (e.g. turnstile). The remote reader communicates with the host system
via the RS-485 interface. The host system checks the company codes and the user
medium numbers, and activates the access points.
If the communication between the remote reader and the host system is interrupted,
then, with the relevant programming of its offline behavior, the remote reader auto-
matically takes on the tasks of the host system; i.e. authorization checks and door
functions are retained.

4.4 Behavior with two Registration Units
The Remote reader 91 25 communicates alternately via the connections 'Ant. A' and
'Ant. B' (toggling) with the connected registration units. This means that the Remote
reader 91 25 cannot communicate with both registration units at the same time. This
results in the following behavior:
• During a longer reading process, the other registration unit is blocked.
• The fields of the two connected registration units do not influence each other.
This means that the two registration units can be installed close together.
• In the case of registration units installed close together, it may be the case that
the medium is read by the two registration units one after the other.
4.5 Behavior with Several Media in the Field (Anti-Collision)
The Remote reader 91 25 can recognize several LEGIC advant user media (ISO 14443
A) in the field simultaneously. The Remote reader 91 25 only considers the first user
medium, which corresponds to the search criteria defined in the system. The remain-
ing user media are ignored.

4.8 Operating Types
4.8.1 Overview of Operating Types
An operating type of the Remotereader is always made up of the operating mode
(door configuration) with the associated extended functions and of the communica-
tion with the host system (access hub). The Remotereader supports the online and
offline operating types.
Online operation: The Remotereader communicates with the system.
Offline operation: If a Remotereader connected with the system is discon-
nected from the system, then the Remotereader switches
to the offline mode.
For the online and offline operation of the device, a minimum of the following hard-
ware settings must be carried out before putting into operation:
System used Minimum hardware settings
Kabaexos9300 Online operation:
• Address
Offline operation:
• DIP and rotary switch
Design and function Technical Manual
32 04045708 - 04/2016 Kaba Remote Reader 91 25-AM (US/
CAN)
4.8.2 Online operation
In online operation, the Remotereader communicates with the host system. The sys-
tem makes the access decision on the basis of badges, time-dependent authorization
and verification. The system controls the access points. If communication between
Remotereader and system is interrupted, then the Remotereader independently
switches into offline operation. If the Remotereader is queried by the system again,
then the Remotereader switches back into online operation.
4.8.3 Offline Operation
Even in offline operation, i.e. without communication with the host system, an access
point is monitored and controlled by the Remotereader. For access decisions,
site keys are used under MIFARE and
segment search keys are used under LEGIC.
The Remotereader controls access points in accordance with the operating mode,
door configuration and the corresponding 'extended functions' (offline configura-
tion).
In order to ensure fault-free offline operation, the Remotereader should be operated
with a secure power supply (e.g. UPS).
Offline operation can be turned off in the system and/or using the 'Mode' rotary
switch (F = off). This means that the offline behavior defined in the hardware settings
is deactivated and the access point remains blocked if there is an interruption in
communication.
Behavior in the event of an interruption to communication
• The access point goes to the basic status (possibly alarm if the access point is not
closed)
• Relays which are not involved in a door process (according to DIP switch) deacti-
vate; the same is true for the connected Kaba extension module 9030.
4.8.3.1 Offline Access Decision
The customer determines the nature of the offline access decision which is parame-
terized in the system. We differentiate the following offline access decisions:
Parameter settings in the system: no offline access decision
The Remotereader rejects all bookings in offline operation.
Parameter settings in the system:
Checking site key (MIFARE)/segment search key (LEGIC)
In the online mode, the site key (MIFARE)/segment search key (LEGIC) is sent to the
Remotereader by the system and saved in the Remotereader. During the offline
mode, the Remotereader only checks the site key (MIFARE)/segment search key
(LEGIC). The time zone is not considered for this kind of access decision.
Logbook
The logbook records and saves a maximum of 2000 events during the offline opera-
tion. Once the Remotereader is online again, the saved data is sent to the host sys-
tem and deleted from the memory of the Remotereader.
The following events are logged:
• Authorized accesses (incl. type of authorization)
• Tampering, door forced open, door opener key
If there are more than 2000 entries, the oldest will be overwritten (ring memory).

The access authorised signal is triggered by authorised booking, the door opener key
or the door handle. So that subsequent door opening does not trigger an alarm, the
'Access authorised' signal activates the alarm bypass.
Then the electric strike is triggered. The door is now released for opening and the set

The 'authorized access' signal is generated through being triggered by an authorized
booking or the door opener key. So that subsequent door opening does not gener-
ate an alarm, the 'authorized access' signal activates the alarm bypass.
Then the motor bolt is activated. The door is now released for opening and the set re-
lay operation time starts to run. When opening the door, the pre-alarm and alarm
time start to run ('Door open too long').
The motor bolt is activated until the frame contact signals that the door is closed
again. Only then will the lock of the motor bolt be extended again. If the motor bolt
is not extended (e.g. in the event of a defect or tampering), then an alarm ('Bolt posi-
tion incorrect') is triggered.

The 'Automatic doors' operating mode is mainly used to operate doors with their
own control electronics (e.g. sliding doors). The control is carried out using a release
pulse.
The 'Access authorised' signal is generated triggered by an authorised booking or the
door opener key. So that subsequent door opening does not trigger an alarm, the
'Access authorised' signal activates the alarm bypass.
The release pulse (approx. 1s) is then sent to the control electronics. The set relay op-
eration time starts to run. If the door is opened within the relay operation time, then
the pre-alarm and alarm time start to run ('Door open too long').
If the door is opened outside of the relay operation time, then unauthorised door
opening is present.

4.9.4 'Turnstile' operating mode
The 'Turnstile' operating mode is mainly used to operate turnstiles/tripod barriers
with their own control electronics (triggered with direction-dependent release
pulses). The turnstile is an access point in which the access point sides (outside/in-
side) are released in a direction-dependent manner. Therefore two opposite direc-
tions of rotation are possible.
The 'access authorised' signal is triggered by authorised booking or the door opener
key. So that subsequent door opening does not trigger an alarm, the 'Access autho-
rised' signal activates the alarm bypass.
Then the direction-dependent release pulse (approx. 1s) is sent to the control elec-
tronics and the set relay operation time starts to run. If the door is opened outside of
the relay operation time, then unauthorised door opening is present.

The 'Night lock' operating mode is mainly used to operate doors with the two ele-
ments electric strike and motor bolt. Therefore during the day only the door opener
relay needs to be enabled, and the door can be additionally locked at night (e.g. X-
Lock motor lock with control unit; but without bolt monitoring).
The 'access authorised' signal is triggered by authorised booking or the door opener
key. So that subsequent door opening does not trigger an alarm, the Access autho-
rised signal activates the alarm bypass.
Then the motor bolt is triggered. As soon as the motor bolt is retracted (motor bolt
monitoring), the electric strike is triggered and the door is released for opening. The
set relay operation time starts to run. When the door is opened the pre-alarm and
alarm time start to run ('Door open too long').
• The time profile saved for the night lock only works in online mode.
• Offline mode always corresponds to the night setting. Motor bolt and door
opener relay are controlled.

The 'Motor bolt with panic function' operating mode is implemented in the same
way as the 'Motor bolt' operating mode. Instead of the door opener key, the door
handle contact is assessed for mechanical panic opening.
The 'access authorised' signal is triggered by an authorised booking or the door han-
dle. So that subsequent door opening does not trigger an alarm, the 'Access autho-
rised' signal activates the alarm bypass.
The door is now released for opening and the set relay operating time starts to run.
When the door is opened the pre-alarm and alarm time start to run ('Door open too
long').
The motor bolt is controlled until the frame contact signals that the door is closed
again. Only then will the bolt of the motor lock be extended again. If the motor bolt
is not extended (e.g. in the event of a defect or tampering), then an alarm ('Bolt posi-
tion incorrect') is triggered.

The 'Motor bolt type II' operating mode is implemented in the same way as the 'Mo-
tor bolt with panic function' operating mode. In place of the static 'Motor bolt' signal,
there is one line each for 'Motor bolt unlocking' and 'Motor bolt locking' connected
to the lock (e.g. MIWA AL-02/AL-3M).
The 'access authorised' signal is triggered by an authorised booking or the door han-
dle. So that subsequent door opening does not trigger an alarm, the 'Access autho-
rised' signal activates the alarm bypass.
Then the motor bolt is retracted with the 'unlock' pulse. The door is now released for
opening. When the door is opened the pre-alarm and alarm time start to run ('Door
open too long').
If the frame contact signals that the door is closed again, then the bolt of the motor
lock is extended again via the 'lock' pulse. If the motor bolt is not extended (e.g. in
the event of a defect or tampering), then an alarm ('Bolt position incorrect') is trig-
gered. If the unlocked door (bolt monitoring) is opened again, no alarm will be gen-
erated.

The 'Automatic door with night lock' mode is used to operate automatic doors with
the two elements release pulse and motor bolt. This means that during the day only
the release pulse is active and at night the door is additionally locked.
The 'access authorised' signal is triggered by authorised booking or the door opener
key. So that subsequent door opening does not trigger an alarm, the 'Access autho-
rised' signal activates the alarm bypass.
Then the motor bolt is triggered. As soon as the bolt is retracted (bolt monitoring),
the release pulse (approx. 1s) is sent to the control electronics. The set relay opera-
tion time starts to run. If the door is opened within the relay operation time, then the
pre-alarm and alarm time start to run ('Door open too long').
If the door is opened outside of the relay operation time, then unauthorised door
opening is present.
• The time profile saved for the night lock only works in online mode.
• Offline mode always corresponds to the night setting. Motor bolt and door
opener relay are controlled.

5.4 Installation lines
This chapter describes:
• Line requirements
• Maximum permitted line length
• Grounding concept
The chapter Connections describes the assignment of connections and switch set-
tings.
Only connect the terminals when the power is switched off.
5.4.1 Power supply line
The device can be supplied with power in the following ways:
• From the host control device (power supply and data line in one cable)
• From a separate power supply
NOTICE
Voltage drops, caused by line resistance, must be taken into consideration for
long lines.
The given cable types and diameters are examples and serve as recommendations.
The technical specifications of the cable manufacturer are authoritative for the pre-
cise determination of the cable diameter/cross section and the resulting maximum
cable lengths. The voltage drop across the cable length is decisive in this case. As
such, the voltage that is available at the end of the cable may, under no circum-
stances, be less than the minimum permitted supply voltage of the connected com-
ponents. This always applies in consideration of the maximum power consumption
of the connected components.
Only connect the terminals when the power is switched off.
The device may only be supplied with SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) and LPS (Lim-
ited Power Source), according to IEC/UL/CSA 60950-1.

6.4 Issue Write/Read Authorization (Launch)
A write/read authorization is required in the following cases:
• If the Remotereader needs to write on a write-protected segment of a medium,
e.g. in the case of CardLink applications, validate write-protected CardLink seg-
ments
• If the Remotereader needs to read a read-protected segment of a medium
In this chapter, the term "Write authorization" will be used for the terms "Write au-
thorization" and "Read authorization".
Write authorization with a LEGIC prime SAM 63 card is only valid for LEGIC prime.
Write authorization with a LEGIC advant SAM 63 card is only valid for LEGIC prime
and LEGIC advant 15693 and 14443A.
In this chapter, the designation "Security card C2" will be used for the card designa-
tions "SAM 63" and "Security card C2 (SC-C2)".
The signaling is carried via the registration unit on which the card is presented.
Requirement
• For the write authorization, a security card C2 with corresponding segment area
is required.
• ISO standard 14443A must have been activated using security card C2.
• The ISO standard of the SAM 63 card must match the parameterized ISO stan-
dard.
• The device should be in regular operation and waiting for an RFID entry.

6.5 Cancel Write/Read Authorization
The write/read authorization needs to be canceled in the following cases:
• If the Remotereader no longer needs to write on write-protected segments of a
medium
• If the Remotereader no longer needs to read read-protected segments of a
medium
In this chapter, the term "Write authorization" will be used for the terms "Write au-
thorization" and "Read authorization".
In this chapter, the term "Writing right" will be used for the terms "Writing right" and
"Reading right".
6.5.1 Cancel all writing rights granted by a write authorization
1. Reset remote reader to the basic status, see Chapter
6.5.2 Cancel a particular writing right granted by a write authorization:
Use the SAM 64 card to delete the relevant stamp.
The signaling is carried via the registration unit on which the card is presented.
Requirement
• In order to cancel the write authorization, a SAM 64 card with the relevant seg-
ment range is required.
• The device is in normal operation and waits for an RFID entry.
Procedure
1. Present the SAM 64 card to the connected registration unit without interruption
(approx. 15s).
ðThe Registration unit illuminates green during the process.
ðSignaling after successful cancellation of the write authorization:
3x Beep
If the write authorization has already previously been canceled with the
same SAM 64 card, this will be signaled immediately with 3x beeps.
ðNo signaling: unsuccessful cancellation of write authorization
Possible reasons
- The SAM 64 card was removed from the RFID field too early (no signaling)
- ISO 14443A is not enabled in the system
- If SAM+ media are used: there are no credits available
2. Remove the SAM 64 card from the field.

9 Packaging/Return
Incorrectly packaged assemblies and devices may cause expenses due to damage
during transport.
Please observe the following information when sending Kaba products.
Kaba shall not be liable for damage to products which can be attributed to insuffi-
cient packaging.
9.1 Complete Devices
The original packaging is specially adapted for the device. It offers the greatest possi-
ble protection against transport damage.
Always use the original packaging for returns.
If this is not possible, then ensure the packaging prevents damage to the device.
• Use a stable, thick-walled transport crate or a box. The transport crate should be
large enough that there is 8–10cm space between the device and the container
wall.
• Wrap the device in suitable film or put in a bag.
• Pad generously around the device e.g. using foam padding or bubble wrap. It
must be ensured that the device does not move within the packaging.
• Only use dust-free environmentally-friendly filling material.
9.2 Electronic Assemblies
Electronic assemblies sensitive to ESD, such as circuit boards, readers, etc., must be
stored, transported and sent in suitable ESD protective packaging. The packaging of
electronic assemblies may only be carried out in ESD-protected workplaces by per-
sons who are familiar with and follow the general ESD protective regulations.
The return of electronic assemblies in packaging with sufficient ESD protection is a
condition for
• making guarantee claims in the event of malfunctions of any kind.
• replacement delivery of electronic circuit boards and components when an ex-
change is provided.
In order to guarantee a high quality standard, electronic components supplied in
packaging without sufficient ESD protection will be neither analyzed nor repaired,
but instead disposed of directly.
9.3 Marking
Complete return papers and correct labeling allow us to process matters quickly.
Please ensure that a delivery note is included with the package. The delivery note
should include the following information:
• Number of devices or components per package.
• Item numbers, serial numbers, designations.
• Address of your company/contact.
• Reason for the return, e.g. repair exchange.
• Informative description of the fault.
