Approvals

CE Approved.

TAMPER-PROOFING

The unit is potted, and is therefore tamper-resistant. The die-cast housing enhances
the tamper-resistance.

INSTALLATION INFORMATION

GENERAL

In a normal Improx KHR installation, the keypad unit would be mounted inside or
outside the door to be controlled, and the ImproX DT unit should be mounted on the
secure side of the door.

Maximum Data Communications Distance

The distance between the KHR Remote Reader and the ImproX Terminal unit can be a
maximum of 10 m. The cable individual conductor cross-sectional area should not be
less than 0.2 mm

2

.

Minimum Distance Between Remote Readers

It is important to maintain a minimum distance between adjacent Remote Readers or
Improx PT Terminal to avoid mutual interference. In installations where more than
one ImproX KHR Remote Reader is being installed, do not install any two keypad units
closer together than the distances shown in Figure 1.

LOCATION OF THE KHR REMOTE READER

Although the unit can be mounted on any surface, mounting on a metal surface will
decrease its Tag reading range. (See Table 1 for Tag read/write range details).

Enclosure
General

The unit enclosure consists of two parts, namely a die-cast front cover and a mild steel
backing plate. The front cover clips onto the backing plate, and is secured by a locking
screw located at the bottom centre of the unit.

The backing plate incorporates two recessed panels designed for added strength.
The front cover incorporates the keypad, electronic circuitry and an LED indicator.

Cable Exit Points

The unit offers a choice of two cable exit points. These are :
(a) Through the centre of the backing plate.
(b) Through the bottom of the unit cover.

To access these exit points, remove the unit cover as follows :
[1] Remove the locking screw from the bottom of the unit.
[2] Pull the bottom edge of the front cover away from the backing plate.
[3] Pull down the front cover until it clears the top of the backing plate.

Central exit point

If the cable exit point at the centre of the backing plate (see Figure 3) is to be used, a
corresponding hole must be provided in the mounting surface. Use the backing plate
as a template to mark the position for this hole.

Bottom exit point

If this cable exit point (see Figure 2) is to be used, remove the thin metal wall using a
sharp tool.

Figure 3 : Install Backing plate

Refer to Figure 3, and proceed as described below.

Mounting on a Concrete or Brick Wall

[1] Use the backing plate as a template and mark off the required holes.
[2] Drill the four mounting holes using a 6 mm diameter masonry drill bit, to the depth

of the length of the wall plug.

[3] If required, drill the centre hole through the wall [for the cable] using a 5 mm

diameter [minimum] masonry drill bit.
[4] Insert wall plugs into the mounting holes.
[5] Secure the backing plate to the surface using the four mounting screws provided.

Mounting on a Hard Wood Surface

[1] Use the backing plate as a template and mark off the required holes.
[2] Drill the four mounting holes using a 2,5 mm diameter drill bit to the depth of

three-quarters of the length of the mounting screws.
[3] If required, drill the centre hole through the wood [for the cable] using a 5 mm

diameter [minimum] drill bit.
[4] Secure the backing plate to the surface using the four mounting screws provided.

Mounting on Metal

The unit may be mounted on metal using four suitable securing devices, such as
screws, nuts and bolts, or rivets.
[1] Use the backing plate as a template and mark off the required holes.
[2] Drill the four mounting holes using a suitable diameter drill bit.
[3] If required, drill the centre hole through the metal [for the cable], using a 5 mm

diameter [minimum] drill bit.
[4] Secure the backing plate to the surface using the chosen method.

MOUNTING THE KHR UNIT ONTO THE BACKING PLATE
Using the Centre Cable Exit

[1] Feed the cable supplied through the centre hole in the backing plate, through to

the other side of the mounting surface.
[2] Pull the cable until the KHR unit comes into contact with the backing plate.
[3] Clip the unit front cover over the top of the backing plate.
[4] Push the unit cover towards the backing plate until it is in position.
[5] Insert the locking screw through the cover into the backing plate, and tighten it.

Using the Bottom Cable Exit

[1] Feed the cable to the bottom of the unit. The cable must be underneath the

securing screw used.
[2] Clip the unit front cover over the top of the backing plate.
[3] Push the unit front cover towards the backing plate until it is in position.
[4] Insert the locking screw through the cover into the backing plate, and tighten it.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

The Remote cable connections are shown in Figure 4. The recommended cable is a
two-pair twisted pair cable. No cable is supplied with the unit.

the communications protocol.

LED Indicator

The function of the externally visible bi-colour Red/Green LED is determined by the
associated system software.
