IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS For LiPo BATTERIES

It is important to specifically use a Lithium Polymer/Li-ion charger only. Do not use a NiMH or NiCd charger.

Failure to use the proper charger may cause a fire, which could result in personal injury and property damage.

Never charge batteries unattended. When charging LiPo/Li-ion batteries, batteries should constantly be observed to monitor the charging process to ensure batteries are being charged properly and to respond to potential problems which may occur.

Some LiPo/Li-ion chargers on the market may have technical deficiencies and charge the LiPo/Li-ion batteries incorrectly or at an improper rate. It is your responsibility to ensure the charger you purchased works properly.

If at any time a battery begins to heat, smoke, swell, or balloon, immediately stop charging the battery and disconnect the charger, then observe the battery in a safe place for approximately 15 minutes, since the battery could leak and react with air, causing chemicals to ignite and result in a fire. Since delayed chemical reaction can occur, it is best to observe the battery as a safety precaution, in a safe area outside of any building or vehicle and away from any combustible material.

Bench Testing

Basics

• Before field-installing units, they should be tested at a convenient bench top location. This will make it easier to verify / change settings and check operation when both units are visible, instead of far apart.
• Handheld Reader and Base Unit should be at least 24 inches apart.
• The Base Unit needs a suitable 8-16 Vdc power supply connected.
• The units as shipped are configured as a matched set and are ready to power up and operate.
• Be sure Handheld Reader is fully charged by connecting the charger cable and charging dock, plugging the charger into an outlet and placing Reader in the charging dock (approximately 5 hours).
• In general, the Base Unit is installed similar to a fixed reader connected to an access control panel.
• Base Unit contains 2 boards: Board A and Board B (see pg. 10).
• Review product manual, including Handheld Reader Features and LED Indicators (pg. 9), and HHR-6400 Base Unit Pin Layout (pg. 10).

Bench Testing

1. Run the following wires between the Base Unit’s Board A to a Wiegand port on the access control panel: Data 0, Data 1, common ground, LED input.
2. Run the following wires between the Base Unit’s Board B to another Wiegand port on the access control panel: Data 0, Data 1, common ground, LED input.
3. Connect a suitable power supply to the Base Unit (8 – 16 Volts dc; minimum of 600mA).
4. Test whether Reader is communicating with Board A on the Base Unit: Press the Power button on the Handheld Reader. Press the “In” gate selection button.The Reader’s Red LED will illuminate when powered on, and its Blue LED will blink continuously when the Reader is communicating with the Base Unit. The LED on Board A (in Base Unit) will also flash green.
5. Test whether Reader is communicating with Board B: Press Reader’s “Out” gate button and repeat #4.
6. Test the Handheld Reader’s gate selection feature: Press the Reader’s “In” button. The red “In” LED will light and the Blue LED will continue to blink. Repeat sequence with the “Out” button.
7. Test a simulated valid badge read: Make sure Handheld Reader is set to “In” mode, then temporarily connect a wire to the “LED In” and to a ground pin on the Base Unit’s Board A. While it is connected, the Handheld Reader’s Green LED will be lit and the vibrate motor will be active. Disconnect the wire and repeat the sequence with the Handheld Reader set to “Out” with a wire temporarily connecting the “LED In” to a ground pin on the Base Unit’s Board B.
8. Test the Handheld Reader’s relay control: Press the “In” button, then press the Relay Control (Vend) button. The Reader will briefly vibrate and the Base Unit’s Board A will emit an audible click. Relay activity can also be tested with a voltage meter set to continuity mode. Repeat sequence, except press the “Out” button; in this case, Board B will emit the audible click. Refer to relay voltage rating in the Specifications Table on pg. 2.
9. Once the Bench Test steps are completed, the Base Unit is ready to be installed at its permanent location, and the Handheld Reader is ready to be used.

Overview: How the HHR System Functions

The Handheld Reader system reads Wiegand RF proximity badges and sends badge data to its Base Unit through a radio link. The Base Unit, which is installed similar to a standard fixed-mount reader, interfaces with an access control panel.

An access control panel determines whether the badge is valid or invalid. When valid badge data is presented, the panel will trigger an LED, Strike Relay output, or both, depending upon the type of panel.

Field Installation

A. Determine Base Unit location

1. The Base Unit should be mounted in a location which allows maximum range between the Base Unit and the Handheld Reader. Typical maximum range for the wireless connection between the Handheld Reader and the Base Unit is 150 feet line-of-sight indoors, or 500 feet line-of-sight outdoors.
2. It is not recommended to locate the Base Unit directly above the area where Handheld Readers will be used, as communication issues may occur.
3. The Base Unit location must accommodate a wired connection to the access control panel.

B. Mounting the Base Unit

1. Recommendation: Temporarily place the Base Unit at its desired mounting location. Use a battery to power up the Base Unit and test the wireless connection between the Base Unit and the Handheld Reader. (See Handheld Reader Testing steps, below.)
2. In general, the Base Unit should be mounted at least 10′ above the ground outdoors, or 5-6′ above the floor indoors, and should not be mounted directly above the area where Handheld Readers will be used. If obstacles are present (vehicles, trains, buildings, trees, etc.) choose a location high enough to avoid interference.
3. A non-metal mounting surface is recommended for the Base Unit (metal surfaces reduce the effective range between the Base Unit and the Handheld Reader). If metal surface use is unavoidable, space the Base Unit as far from the metal as possible using a plastic, wood, or other non-metal spacer.
4. The Base Unit must be mounted in the upright position. When correctly oriented, “Cypress” can be clearly read and the enclosure door will be to the left when open.

5. Remove the backplate and circuit boards from the enclosure before drilling any holes in the enclosure to avoid damaging the backplate or circuit boards. The backplate is help in place by 4 Phillips screws at each corner of the enclosure.
   Tools Needed

   Drill
   Phillips Screwdriver
   3/16″ Drill Bit (if using wall anchors)
   7/64″ Drill Bit (if not using wall anchors)

6. Install a grommet on bottom of the enclosure using the preformed divot as a guide for the drill bit. See lower diagram.
   

7. Drill the mounting holes into the mounting surface.
   a. If using wall anchors: Following the hole pattern shown above, use an appropriate 3/16-inch drill bit to drill holes into the surface with a depth of at least 1.25 inches. Place the wall anchors into the newly drilled holes.
   b. If NOT using wall anchors: Following the hole pattern shown above, use a 7/64-inch drill bit to drill holes into the surface with a depth of at least 1.25 inches.

8. Use a Phillips screwdriver to mount the enclosure to the surface using the four #8 x 1 inch screws included with the enclosure. See diagram on page 8.

9. Use a Phillips screwdriver to mount the backplate and circuit boards in the enclosure.

C. Connecting the Base Unit to the access control panel

1. To properly connect Base Unit to control panel, 2 separate Wiegand ports must be available on the panel.
2. Starting with Board A in the Base Unit, connect Data 0, Data 1, common ground, and LED Input to one of the available Wiegand ports.
3. Continuing with Board B, connect Data 0, Data 1, common ground, and LED Input to the other available Wiegand port, referring to the wiring diagram on pg. 11 as needed.
4. To power the Base Unit, connect the power supply to Board A and Board B with an 8-16Vdc power supply, with a minimum of 600mA of current (the 2 boards require 300mA each).

D. Testing the Handheld Reader-to-Base Unit connection

1. Be sure the Handheld Reader has been charged for at least 4 hours prior to testing.
2. Press the Power button on the Handheld Reader. Press the “In” gate selection button to test whether the Reader is communicating with Board A on the Base Unit. The Reader’s Red LED will illuminate, and its Blue LED will blink continuously when the Reader is communicating with the Base Unit. The LED on Board A (in Base Unit) will also flash green.
3. To test the Handheld Reader’s gate selection feature, press the Reader’s “In” button. The red “In” LED will light and the Blue LED will continue to blink. Repeat sequence with the “Out” button.
4. To simulate a valid badge read, make sure Handheld Reader is set to “In” mode, then temporarily connect a wire to the “LED In” and to a ground pin on the Base Unit’s Board A. While it is connected, the Handheld Reader’s Green LED will be lit and the vibrate motor will be active. Disconnect the wire and repeat the sequence with the Handheld Reader set to “Out” with a wire temporarily connecting the “LED In” to a ground pin on the Base Unit’s Board B.
5. To test the Handheld Reader’s relay control, press the “In” button, then press the Relay Control (Vend) button. The Reader will briefly vibrate and the Base Unit’s Board A will emit an audible click. Relay activity can also be tested with a voltage meter set to continuity mode. Repeat sequence, except press the “Out” button; in this case, Board B will emit the audible click. Refer to relay voltage rating in the Specifications Table on pg. 2.
6. Test with a valid badge by presenting the badge to the Handheld Reader. If all connections to the panel are made correctly, the Reader’s Green LED will illuminate and the Reader will vibrate.

Note: If there is no direct line of sight, if obstacles are present, or if additional distance is needed between the Base Unit and Handheld Reader, a Cypress Repeater unit is recommended. See pg. 14. Page 8 of 14

Card Programming – Troubleshooting

For all Handheld Reader steps indicated above, the following error conditions may occur.
Step 2 – If the Red LED does not illuminate, the batteries may need to be replaced or charged.
Step 4 – If you do not see the Red LED wink out for 1/2 second, present the badge again.
– If the Red LED still does not indicate a badge read has occurred, then there may be a problem with the Reader.
– When trying multiple times, make sure the badge is at least 1 foot away from the Handheld Reader before presenting the badge again.
– Allow the unit to power off for 1 minute and try again.

Sample Channel & Address Cards

Reconfiguring the Base Unit Radio

Units in the Handheld Reader Kit are factory-configured to communicate with each other. Use the 10-position DIP switch bank on the daughterboard to re- configure radio settings as necessary for the following applications:

• Changing the channel of the radio
• Changing the Handheld Reader display outputs to show radio energy in the environment, or the link quality between the Handheld Reader and Base Unit radios

Daughterboard

The daughterboard is located on Board A in the Base Unit.

The daughterboard has a 10-position DIP switch bank and LED display.

|

Changing the Channel

Changing the channel requires using DIP switches 1-4 on the daughterboard DIP switch bank. The diagram at left shows all the possible channel configurations.

Set DIP switches 1-4 according to the channel that will be used.

When changing the channel, the Base Unit must be power-cycled after setting the DIP switches to the desired channel.

---|---

Changing the
Handheld Reader display outputs
When DIP switch 8 is on, the LEDs will display the ambient RF energy in the area.
This can be used to determine if the intended channel has a high level of noise.

Typical Handheld Installation with Optional Repeater

Basics

The Cypress Repeater is used to get around obstacles that prevent a clear line of sight between the Handheld Reader and the Base Unit. It is mounted similar to the Base Unit. Please review pg. 6.

Installation

Find a suitable location for the Cypress Repeater Unit between the area where the Handheld Reader will be used and the Base Unit. There should be a clear line of sight between the Repeater and both units. Mount the Repeater at the same height at which the Base Unit is mounted, preferably on a non-metal surface.

Connect a power supply to the Repeater.

Once the Repeater has power, the status LED on the main board will stay solid green. The Repeater will now repeat any signals received from the Handheld Reader and Base Unit. If communication problems still exist, it may be necessary to relocate the Repeater.
