  • A-1.Surface Mounted: Use a screwdriver to screw the mounting plate to the wall. A-2.Embedded: To dig a hole for 837-E:85mmx113mm / 837-EF:128mmx109mm; and then, use a screwdriver to screw the mounting plate to the wall.
  • Pull cable ends through the access hole in the mounting plate.
  • Attach AR-837-E or AR-837-EF to the mounting plate and install screws (supplied) into the holes at the bottom with the Allen key.
  • Apply power. LED (green) will light up with one beep.
  1. Tubing: The communication wires and power line should NOT be bound in the same conduit or tubing.
  2. Wire selection: Use AWG 22-24 Shielded Twist Pair to avoid star wiring, CAT 5 cable for TCP/IP connection
  3. Power supply: Don’t equip reader and lock with the same power supply. The power for reader may be unstable when the lock is activating, that may cause a
    malfunction in the reader.
    The standard installation: Door relay and lock use the same power supply, and reader should use another independent power supply

Setting up the alarm / arming Conditions:

  1. Arming enabled
  2.  Alarm system connected

Situations:

  1. Door is open overtime: Door is open longer than door relay time plus door close time.
  2.  Force open (Opened without a valid user card): Access by force or illegal procedure.
  3. Door position is abnormal: Happening when power is off and then on again, besides, reader was on arming before power went off.
