Installation Overview
Chapter
2
This chapter introduces the basic concept on how to install an access control system. The
experienced installer can jump to section “Determine Fingerprint Request” to get the
installation overview related to Flex fingerprint controller and other flex controllers.
The overall installation steps are shown in the following block diagram Fig. 1. The detailed
descriptions are given in the subsection below.
Preparing for the Installation
Before beginning the installation, it is recommended that the user gather certain
information to better prepare. Proper preparation will help ensure a smooth installation,
and will save the installer time and reduce unnecessary efforts. The following information
is essential for a professional installation:
Obtain a Floor Plan
Obtain a floor plan of the building in which the access control system is to be installed.
Obtaining a floor plan helps the installer determine what components need to be installed,
and where. It also is essential in determining the length of cable needed to connect
readers to the controller. A floor plan can be a blue print of the building, a design, or
simply a drawing of the facility. Any document showing the footprint of the building can
be used. The dimensions are important to note, especially when determining cable lengths.
A floor plan may be obtained from your local city hall.
Determining Hardware and Location
Determining which hardware to use and where it will be installed. This is the most crucial step
in the preparation stage. First, determine how many access points, or doors, need to be
managed by the access control system. These access points will control the security of the
facility, and can limit the entry and exit to and from any given area of the building. After
deciding which doors need to be controlled, the user must also determine the level of security
needed at each door. There are many ways to manage each door, using different resources.
These resources include, but are not limited to: proximity readers, mag stripe readers, relays,
and request to exits. A few common door configurations are described below:
6666
Step 1: Preparing for the Installation
• Obtain a floor plan
• Determine the hardware and location
• Determine the number of controller and
modules and system architecture
Step 2: Hardware Installation
• Mount the controller and enclosure
• Install and connect the card readers
• Connect the electric strikes or mag locks
• Connect the controller to the system
computer and desktop reader
• Mount a backup battery in the enclosure
Step 3: Software Setup/Configuration
• Install the software in the control computer
• Setup the user accounts who will use the software
• Configure the controller and all other hardware settings
• Configure the holidays, access group and the door control
schedule
• Enroll the cards and set the cardholders’ properties
Fig. 3. Installation Overall Steps
1. One reader, basic access control
The most basic configuration involves one card reader and an electric strike. In
this configuration, a person presents a card to the reader, and is either granted or
denied access. The electric strike unlocks if the system grants access. Another
variation of this scenario involves setting the system up to monitor whether the
door is open, which allows the system to protect against propped open doors, or
doors being held open for too long.
2. One reader, with request to exit device

Adding a request to exit device to scenario 1 allows the system to control when to

allow people to exit through a door. Request to exit devices include buttons that a
person must press in order to exit, or a motion detector that automatically unlocks
the door when a person approaches. These devices are always installed on the
secure side of the door.

Power Supply
Fig. 4. Common Door Configuration with Entry Reader
3. Two readers, entry and exit access control
If additional security is needed at a particular door, or if the administrator needs a
record of the time and date that people enter AND exit a door. Adding a second
reader on the secure side of the door will require people to present a card to exit as
well as enter. This scenario provides the added security benefit of allowing the
system to control who can enter, and who can exit. It also allows the
administrator to control when people can enter and exit.
Scenario 1 and 2 require one reader. Scenario 3 requires two. Each door module on the
EverAccess controller can control two readers. Therefore, scenarios 1 and 2 allow one
door module to control two doors. Scenario 3 requires one door module for each door.
This is important to consider when choosing the appropriate number of modules and
readers.
Determine Fingerprint Access Requests
The biometric recognition technology used in the fingerprint controller provides a higher
security level than regular card access system. Determine the number of the access points where
the fingerprint access is required. The fingerprint controller has a built-in reader, so it can be
used as an entry reader. A common door configuration with the fingerprint controller is shown
in the below figure:

Fig. 5. Common Door Configuration for Fingerprint Controller
As the Fig. 5 shows, the fingerprint controller will first work as a controller that receives inputs
of door lock, door sensor, request-to-exit. Also the built-in reader in the fingerprint controller
will sense the presented cards. No additional entry reader is needed. An exit reader can be
installed depending on the actual requirement and connected to the fingerprint controller. The
fingerprint controller can be further to be networked with more flex controller or connect to
computer.
Determining System Structure and Components
Determine how many flex controllers and fingerprint controller are needed, and whether
an Ethernet interface is required.
1. Each EverAccess controller can accommodate up to 8 card readers. If the system
to be installed requires more than 8 readers, additional controllers are necessary.
These controllers can be connected to the system as described in chapter 4.
2. The fingerprint controller can support 2 readers (one built-in, one additional) on
one door. Also it can network with other Flex controllers.
3. If one or more controller is to be installed at a different location than the system
computer is to be installed, an Ethernet interface is required to connect over the
internet. An Ethernet interface may also be used in locations at which the
controllers are installed a long distance away from the system PC. Please refer to
chapter 4 for more details on installing the Ethernet interface.

Hardware Installation
Chapter
3
In this chapter, after preparing for the installation, the user is ready to begin the install. This
section will describe, in general terms, how to install the hardware including wiring. Here are
the following processes:
• Mount the support frame and controller
• Connect the electric strikes or magnetic locks
• Connect the door sensor
• Connect the request-to-exit button
• Install and connect the card reader (optional)
Mounting Fingerprint Controller
The fingerprint controller has a built-in reader working as an entry reader, so it should be
installed close to the door where it guides. As a common rule, the fingerprint controller
should not be installed on a metal, which will lower the card sense range.
The fingerprint controller package contains a supporting frame to elevate the controller in
order to make wire connections more convenient. The installation is described in the steps
below:
Step 1: Mount the supporting frame on to the wall.
Use the four anchor screws (provided in the package) to mount the frame to the wall.
Show it as the Fig. 6.
Step 2: Make cable hole
In the terminal area, marked as 1 in step 1 of the figure, make a hole on the wall, big
enough to allow all the wires go through. Note the wiring diagram will be addressed in the
following sections. Wire all the required cables before step 3.
Step 3: Mount the fingerprint controller to the supporting frame
Align the fingerprint controller to the 4 latches (marked as 2 to 5 in step 1 figure) on the
frame, and attach the controller to the frame (marked as 1 in step 2 figure). Make sure the

Connection to Door Lock
Electric strikes and magnetic locks are used to keep doors locked unless the system grants
access or the user sets the doors to remain unlocked. The installer must supply the electric
strikes and/or magnetic locks. It is recommended that the installer follow and keep the
instructions for these locks. One strike or mag lock is required for each door. These locks
11

must be powered separately from the controller. The mounting instructions for strikes and mag
V+
42 44
locks vary depending on the manufacturer and type of lock. Please consult the instructions
included with the door hardware when installing. Once the locks are installed, follow the
instructions below to connect them to the controller.
The fingerprint controller has one door controller delay for the door lock control. Terminal 43
is named common terminals (COM). Terminal 42 is used for normally open terminal (N.O.)
locks. Terminal 44 is used for normally closed terminal (N.C.) locks.
The electrical door lock must have a separate power supply. The power supply for the electrical
door lock depends on the specification of the lock. Carefully choose the cable connecting the
door locks to fit the current draw. Two common types of electrical door locks in the market
are electric strike locks and magnetic locks. The connection methods for these examples are
shown in Fig. 7 Fig. 8 respectively.
