Installation Steps

The following is the general sequence of steps to follow in installing the 84x Reader. Each step is explained in further detail in the sections that follow.
1. Mount the reader backplate only (the reader will be m ounted later). Refer to “Mounting the Reader” below.
2. Connect the reader. Refer to “Connecting the Reader” on page 6.
3. Mount the reader to the backplate. Refer to “Mounting the Reader” below.
4. Test t he reader. Refer to “Testing the Reader” on page 22.
5. If necessary, refer to “Troubleshooting Guide” on page 23 for troubleshooting information.

Mounting the Reader

The reader comes with a backplate suitable for mounting directly onto a standard U.S. electrical single-gang box. The reader may also be mounted directly onto a hollow wall. The reader is supplied with a weather­resistant gasket.
The figures listed below begin on the next page. Refer to the appropriate figure fo r the type of reader you are mounting.
Figure 1, “Model 84x Reader - Gang Box Mounting,” on page 4. Figure 2, “Model 84x Reader - Wall Mounting,” on page 5.

Connecting the Reader

Cabling Distances

The table below gives the maximum cabling distances between the reader and the microcontroller.
TABLE 1: Cable Distances
13.6 Volts (see Note 1) 18
AWG 24 AWG
2750 ft 838m
NOTES:
1. Reader supply voltage measured at microcontroller: 13.6V is nominal when line-powered; 12V is nominal when battery-powered.
2. All cable distances are typical maximums.
3. Readers powered by a local 12VDC power supply will have a maximum cable distance of 500 feet (152m) of 24 AWG telephone wire.
4. The reader will work well with unshielded cable in most environments. No company can guarantee that data will be reliably transmitted for long distances on unshielded cable in every installation. Typical Wiegand reader installation requires eight-conductor shielded cable to provide reader power, controller communication, door contact, exit push button, and tamper switch status. The same functionality is provided by Proximity Perfect readers, "supervised" with four-conductor unshielded cable.
