Controller Connection
This ProlD series reader needs to be connected to a host machine in order to transmit card information via RS-485 or wiegand. The following is an example of the connection to InBio Series controller.

Connect the controller via RS485

Figure 2-3 Reader connect the controller via RS-485

Notes:

1. A maximum of seven readers can be connected to one controller.
2. Before connecting RS-485 readers, open the rear panel of the reader and set the RS-485 address of the reader via DIP switch according to the connection of each reader.
3. If the RS-485 communication wire is longer than 100 meters, it is needed to set the 4th DIP switch of the last reader to ON state.
4. The DIP switch needs to be set with the controller powered off and takes effect after restart. After setting, the DIP switch does not need to be set back to its original position.
5. For details on how to add controllers and readers to the software, please refer to the relevant User Manual.

DIP Switch Settings
As shown in the table below, places 1-3 of the DIP switch are used to set the device number for RS-485 communication, and place 4 is for setting the RS-485 termination resistance. If the RS-485 communication wire is longer than 100 meters, it is needed to set the 4th DIP switch of the last reader to ON state, that is parallel a terminal resistance of 120 ohm between 485+ and 485-.

Notes:

• When terminal WG26/34 is connected to ground, the number of Wiegand output bits is 26 bits. The default is not grounded, and the number of Wiegand output bits is 34 bits.

Access Control Device Connection
This ProlD series reader can be connected to an access control device. The wiring below is an example of connection to an access control device via RS-485.
