Quick Startup:
The two units that are packaged together (banded) are factory paired and
will only communicate with each other.
Check initial operation
Connect the 9V battery (included) to the 9V power cable (included) and plug the two-position
connector in to the Wiegand Controller / Remote Interfaces at the ‘12V’ and ‘GND’ positions on the
bottom edge connector. Once both units are powered up, the green POWER LED should be ON
steady on each unit. Press and quickly release the ‘TEST’ button to test communication between
the two units. One or more of the blue LEDs should light up for one second to indicate that
successful communication has occurred.
Perform a Range-Test from the desired install locations
With the 9V batteries plugged in to each of the units, place them at the desired install location
points and perform a Range-Test by pressing and quickly releasing the ‘TEST’ button. The received
signal strength is displayed for one second on the six blue LEDs with the bottom LED indicating the
minimum signal strength and all six LEDs indicating maximum signal strength.
Connect to permanent power
Before connecting each unit to the permanent power source, ensure that it is a 12VDC supply that
can source at least 1 ampere to the unit. Connect the power at each unit and perform several
Range-Tests to check for adequate input power.
Wire the input and output functions
Using the wiring examples on pages 21 – 27 for reference, wire the required devices at each unit.

Wiegand Bridge system: includes 1 ea. DS004-CONTROLLER and DS004-REMOTE
Wiegand Controller Interface
Wiegand Remote Interface
Note: if the product part number includes ‘REV2’ such as ‘DS004-REMOTE
REV2’, then the relays are solid state type with the specifications noted on
page 6. Additionally, the relay outputs have on-board Surge Protectors which
eliminates the need for the use of the external ones that are supplied with the
REV1 systems.
Part Numbers
Product Overview
The Sure-Fi DS004 Wiegand Bridge System consists of two units that are factory paired and ready
to use out of the box with no configuration required. These units are the Controller Interface, Model
DS004-CONTROLLER, and the Remote Interface, Model DS004-REMOTE. The system provides a
wireless connection (bridge) from a remote location (door, gate, or relay device), to the controller
location, such as an Access Control Panel. The Controller Interface wires to the Access Control
Panel and communicates wirelessly to the Remote Interface, which is placed near any peripheral
Wiegand device (card reader / keypad / receiver) and/or any relay/switch activated device. Each
DS004-BRIDGE System consists of one Wiegand channel, two relay outputs and two relay inputs
for functions such as door monitor sensors/request to exit inputs or any other relay-controlled
function. Each unit has two relay outputs that correspond with the two relay inputs from the
paired unit. The relays can be used independently and exclusively, meaning that it is not necessary
to use the Wiegand input to use the relays. The Sure-Fi App provides for configuration, diagnostics,
and field firmware updates.
Features
• Includes complete wireless solution from Remote location (reader/door) to Controller location
• Range: up to 1 mile through obstructions and greater than 50 miles line-of-sight
• Chain multiple system pairs for extended range
• One Wiegand port (compatible with any Wiegand protocol up to 64 bit)
• Two relay outputs per side NO, NC, COM terminals (wet contacts available on the Remote
Interface)
• Two relay control inputs per side, i.e. Request to Exit input (REX), Door monitor input (DPS), etc.
• One Auxiliary digital input/output (0 to 5V input/output)
• Backup Battery charger and UPS function
• DIN rail mount or direct wall mount
• Sure-Fi APP connects via Bluetooth for diagnostics and firmware updates
