Power:
The Tag Reader is powered by AC Adapter 5V or by inserting batteries. Wire the 5V DC Adapter
to the power terminal on the Tag Reader or use two AA 1.5V L91 Lithium batteries as power
source.
When Both AC Adapter and batteries are in use, the Tag Reader will only power on through AC
Adapter.
The Tag Reader can also detect the battery status when batteries are inserted.
If the battery voltage is low during operation, the low battery signal will be sent to the Control
Panel along with regular signal transmissions for the Control Panel to display the status
accordingly.
If battery voltage is exhausted, both Green and Red LED will flash every 4 seconds and the Tag
Reader will stop all operation.
Power Saving Feature:
When idle, Tag Reader is in “power saving” mode and uses no power. It will activate and
“wake-up” for 6 seconds when put the tag on the Tag Reader sensor.
After 6 seconds of inactivity, the power goes off and it returns to power saving mode.
Supervision:
Tag Reader will transmit a supervision signal to report its condition regularly every 30 ~ 45
minutes
Tamper Protection:
Tag Reader is protected against any attempt to open the lid or to detach Tag Reader from its
1
mounting surface (see Mounting Tag Reader for details).
When Tag Reader’s tamper is triggered, a tamper signal will be sent to the Control Panel for the
Control Panel to display the status. Once the signal is sent, Tag Reader returns to power saving
mode.

(b) Press the Learn Button, Tag Reader will emit a beep and its info will display in the Control
Panel.
(c) Press the Add button, the Control Panel will send acknowledgement back to Tag Reader
and it will emit 3 beeps to indicate successful learning.
(c) If the Add button is not pressed within 10 seconds, Tag Reader will transmit a failed signal
with Red LED flashing 5 times. Please press the Learn Button again to learn into the
Control Panel.
Step 4. Navigate the Control Panel into “Walk Test” mode. Hold the Tag Reader in the desired
location, and put the tag near Tag Reader tag sensor with 1 beep sound, to confirm this
location is within signal range of the Control Panel, if success the Tag Reader will emit 3
beeps.
Step 5. When you are satisfied that the Tag Reader works in the chosen location, you can proceed
to mount the Tag Reader by following the below steps.
Mounting Tag Reader:
The Tag Reader consists of a two-part design made up of a cover and base. The cover contains all
the electronics and the base provides a mean of fixing. The tamper switch protects the enclosure
from being opened or being removed from the mounting surface.
The base has three knockouts for mounting purpose. To mount the Tag Reader:
I. Remove the fixing screw at the bottom
II. Remove the cover assembly
III. Break through the appropriate knockouts on the
mounting holes.
IV. Use the Mounting holes of the base as a template,
drill holes in the surface.
V. Insert the wall plugs if fixing into plaster or brick
VI. Screw the base into the wall plugs
VII. Fix the cover with the screw and clips to the base
<NOTE>
If the mounted Tag Reader is forcedly removed,
the Breakaway Area will be left on the wall
separated from the Tag Reader, the tamper will
then be triggered (only available by using the
Mounting Holes method).
When connecting with an AC Adapter through the power terminal, pull the two-wired power
adapter through the power terminal hole before using the Tag Reader.
