General tolerance following ISO NFT 58-000 standard

Mounting

  • Pass the cables through the hole in the base.
  • Screw the base in its final location.
  • Connect the reader.
  • Test the readings and communication.
  • Place the reader on the base (clip the top part and then pivot it down).
  • Lock the reader with the two screws provided using the specific tool.

Bus architecture (RS485)

Wiring resistors R1 and R2 use the extended features of theRS485 Bus: FAIL- SAFE (see RS485-AN-960).
R1 & R2: 1.5 kΩ resistor supplied.
RT: 120 Ω end-of-line resistor supplied.

Power supply characteristics

Use an AC/DC power supply type LPS, Limited Power Source (as per IEC/UL/EN 60950-1 Ed2) or type ES1, PS1 (according to IEC/UL/EN 62368-1) for the main supply.

Main power supply:
Max. consumption at 12 Vdc:
ARC-A/PH5: 130 mA
ARC-F/PH5: 350 mA
ARC-K/BF5: 230 mA

Recommended cables

RS485: Use a multi-conductor shielded twisted pair cable. Max. length: 3281 ft at 9600 baud
RS232: Max. length 49.2 ft
Wiegand / Clock & Data: Use an untwisted shielded multi-conductor. For data: 2 wires AWG24 – 98 ft max / 4 wires AWG24 – 197 ft max / 6 wires AWG24 – 328 ft max 2 wires AWG20 – 164 ft max / 4 wires AWG20 – 328 ft max

Anti-tearing

Tearing is detected by an accelerometer.
Caution: switch on the reader when it is in its final position to initialize the accelerometer in the correct position.

Bell

Touch screen read-only readers: if the bell is activated, contact J2 is used to connect the external ring (max. 200 mA at 28 Vdc).

Read-only reader configuration

R and S readers are configurable with the SCB RFID configuration card.
OSDP™ readers are configurable with the OCB RFID configuration card or with the FileTransfer command.

  • If the SCB/OCB is compatible with the reader’s firmware, the LED lights green, and the buzzer beeps five times.
  • If the SCB/OCB is not compatible with the reader’s firmware, the LED lights red, and the buzzer is activated for 1 s.
  • If the SCB/OCB key is different from the reader’s key: no reaction.

Caution: set your reader with your own company key.

Powering-up the readers

On power-up, the reader enters an initialization phase:

  1. Activation of the white LED and buzzer for 100 ms.
    For read-only & OSDP™ readers:

  2. Activation of the LED, according to the color code: Red = +10, Orange = +5, Green = +1, indicating the firmware version.

  3. For serial R/S reader only: the orange LED flashes 20 times: waiting for an update.

  4. Activation of the default LED (read-only: flashes blue, OSDP™: off; if no customer-specific configuration).

  5. For the ARC screen with an activated keypad, the default mode is: to display the picture on standby and activate the keyboard by pressing the screen.

Precautions for the biometric sensor and the keypad

  • For optimal operation, the biometric sensor must be free of all traces of water. Outdoors it is recommended to install the reader undercover.
  • The keypad is sensitive. Take off your gloves to enter your code.

Precautions for installation

  • The supply voltage at the reader’s connector should be between +7 Vdc and +28 Vdc.
  • As far as possible, keep the reader away from computer or power source cables. They can generate electrical interference depending on their radiation level and the proximity of the reader.
  • Recommended distance between two readers: parallel plane: 11.81 in – same plane: 15.75 in – perpendicular plane: 9.8 in.
  • Place the reader at a height of fewer than 2 meters / 78.74 inches (standard UL/IEC 62368).
  • If the reader is fixed on a metal surface, it is possible to have a reduction in the reading distance.
  • Use a ferrite (two-way) for the cable (power supply and data). Example: reference 74271222 WURTH ELEKTRONIK.
  • By design, the reader can be installed indoors and outdoors.
  • BEFORE powering on, connect the wires or the connector of the reader. Before disconnecting the wires or the connector of the reader, power off.
  • Operating temperature:

Temperature| -22 °F to 158 °F
-30°C to +70°C| -22 °F to 140 °F
-30°C to +60°C| -4 °F to 158 °F
-20°C to +70°C| -4 °F to 140 °F -20°C to +60°C| 14 °F to 122 °F
-10°C to +50°C
