Step 1: Installation Preparation
Step 2: Hardware Installation
Step 3: Software Setup / Configuration
1.5 Installation Procedures
The Installation has three procedures described as below. Each procedure will be
introduced in the following sections in detail.
• Obtain a floor plan
• Determine the hardware and location
• Installing the controller
• Connecting to the door lock / open button / sensor / bell
• Connecting the controller to the network
• Connecting to the alarm input / output
• Log in controller built-in software through IE on computer
• Set up user account for user software
• Set up controller and other equipment
• Set holidays, shifts and door access rule
• Log in card and set up card attributes
1.6 Installation Preparation
Before installation, users are advised to collect information properly which will make the
installation more smoothly and helps to reduce time and energy cost. For professional
constructors, the information below will be of great use.
1.6.1 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.

1.6.2 Determine the Hardware and Location
Determine 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 strip
readers, relays, and request to exits. A few common door configurations are described
below:
1.6.2.1 One Set of EFC301F (One Reader) – The Basic Door Entry Control
The most basic configuration involves one EFC301F (controller + 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.
1.6.2.2 One Set of EFC301F (One Reader) + One Door Open Button – Control of Exit
Adding a door open button to the above scenario allows the system to control when to
allow people to exit through a door. The door open button equipment includes a
button which has to be pressed when a card holder exits, or a door sensor. The
equipment should be arranged on the secure side of the door.
Figure 1-2

TCP/IP Network Access Controller
1.6.2.3 One Set of EFC301F (Two Readers) – Control of both Entry and Exit
When the security grade is relatively high or the administrator requires the card holders
to get in or out at fixed time or date through specific door, one controller and two
readers are needed. Additional installation of one reader on the side of the door
requires the card holders to swipe the card when exiting and entering. This rule has
more reliable security regarding who can enter and who can exit and the administrator
can also master the entry and exit time of card holders.
1.6.3 Determine the Number of Controllers According to System Structure
Determine how many controllers and network interfaces are required.
Each EFC301F Controller can connect up to two readers. If the system requests installation
of more than two readers, the number of the controller will be increased. You can refer to
Chapter 3 for more details.

2 Hardware Installation
After the preparation work is finished, user can start installation. This chapter mainly
introduces how to install the hardware part, which is divided into four steps:
1. Install the controller.
2. Install the reader and connect the reader to the controller.
3. Connect the electric strikes or magnetic locks.
4. Connect the controller to the system computer and reader (optional).
2.1 Installing the Controller
The controller should be installed in an easily-accessible position. However, it should be
noticed that the controller is the core part of the entire system and can be used to change
database. After the installation site is selected, a relative secure clean position in which the
administrator is easy to operate should be selected. In order to facilitate power supply and
communication, a prepared wire chase must be arranged on the periphery of the controller
before installing the controller.
For installing the controller to the desired location, two screws or anchors have to be
prepared.

2.3 Installing and Connecting the Readers
The reader has to be installed nearby the door and connected to the controller directly. You
can connect up to two readers to the EFC301F controller. The general procedure is
described below:
1. Mount each reader, following the instructions included with the reader. Typically, this
will include drilling two holes in the mounting wall, and then using the reader
mounting hardware to secure the reader to the mounting wall.
2. Once the readers are mounted, connect them to the door module. For wiring
definitions, please see previous sections in this manual.
The EFC301F controller can control up to two readers. The supported reader formats are
EverAccess RS232 and Wiegand format. For instructions on connecting each type, please
refer to Figure 2-1 for the RS232 reader connection and Figure 2-2 for the Wiegand reader
connection.

2.4 Connecting to the Door Lock
The controller provides one Door Lock terminal for locking / unlocking the door. You can
connect either an electric strikes or magnetic locks to the reader. Terminal 15 is used for
normally opened terminal (N.O.). Terminal 16 is used for common terminal (COM). Terminal
17 is used for normally closed terminal (N.C.).
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 Figure 2-3 and Figure 2-4 respectively.
2.4.1 Connecting to an Electric Strike
Connect the Electric Strike to terminals 15-17 on the reader.
Figure 2-3 Example for connecting to an electric strike
2.4.2 Connecting to a Magnetic Lock
Connect the Magnetic Lock to terminals 15-17 on the reader.
Figure 2-4 Example for connecting to a Magnetic Lock
Note:
1. The maximum current outputted by the Door Lock relay on the controller is less than
5A. If the current of the door lock exceeds the capacity, an external power relay is
required.
2. V+ in the figures represents one lead of an external power source. When using DC
voltage, put the positive lead here. When using AC, the leads are interchangeable.
