Reader-02

NOTES:

  • Cut-out dimensions.*
  • Handling is determined by rotation limiter and bottom mounting bracket.
  1. Assemble handle according to the proper handing required.
  2. Rotation Limiter & Bottom Mounting bracket determines handing.(Fig. 3)
  3. If existing cam or rod mechanism are installed on original handle remove and install on new handle. (minimum torque 4Nm)
  4. Ensure the proper cutout in the door. (See Fig. 2)
  5. Install handle through cutout and install top & bottom mounting brackets. (Pozidrive with maximum 0.5Nm)
  6.  Install wiring harness and route to hinge side of door securing in place to ensure that nothing will bind or catch.
  7. Proceed to wiring. (See Figs. 4, 5 & 6)

Wiring

The 3525PRX/DFR/iCL contain two separate functional modules:
The reader modules read the contents of a compatible proximity card and converts it to Wiegand format.
The actuator module controls and monitors the locking function of the swinghandle.
These two modules operate independently of each other and require connection to an access control unit (not provided), to be fully functional.

The reader modules of the swinghandle is accessed with a four pin connector attached to a harness connected to the module’s circuit board. The module’s connector pinout is:

Wire Color Description Note
Black GND ground
Red Positive 12 to 24VDC power supply input
Green DATA0 DATA0 output
White DATA1 DATA1 output

The actuator module of the swinghandle is accessed with a six pin connector on the rear of the unit, shown below.

Wire Color Description Note
Black GND ground
Red Positive 12 to 24 VDC power supply input
Pin 3 N/C no connect
Orange Input Trigger command input (9VDC up to supply voltage, 100

milliseconds minimum)
Brown| Electronic Lock Status| open collector output (sink to ground, 100mA max. load)
Blue| Mechanical Lock Status| open collector output (sink to ground, 100mA max. load)

Input Trigger

This signal is used to control the electronic lock slide position.
For UNLOCKED position: Supply 9VDC minimum (do not exceed supply voltage) for at least 100 milliseconds. The lock will remain unlocked for as long as the signal is present, or a minimum of 3 seconds.
Signal timing can typically be adjusted through the access control device.
The input trigger current draw is less than 10mA.
Electronic Lock Status Output Signal
This output will provide a 100mA MAX sink to GND when the lock slide is electromechanically moved to the unlocked position.
Mechanical Lock Status Output Signal
This output will provide a 100mA MAX sink to GND when the handle is in the open position or when the keylock in the actuator is manually unlocked.
NOTE: These outputs are open collector outputs rated for input voltage with a maximum load of 100mA. To avoid damage to the 3525PRX/DFR/iCL, do not exceed voltage and current ratings.RCI-3525PRX-Electro-Mechanical-Rack-

Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

  • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
  • Increase the separation between the equipment & receiver.
  • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
  • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

FCC Caution:
To assure continued compliance, any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment. (Example – use only shielded interface cables when connecting to computer or peripheral devices).
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

  1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
  2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
  • Red & Black are 12 to 24 VDC input voltage.
  • Orange is a positive input with a Normally Open Switch. The lock will unlock for a minimum of 3 seconds on a momentary activation (50 millisecond minimum) or remain unlocked as long as the circuit is closed.
  • Blue is an alarm that will activate when the key is used to unlock the cabinet or anytime the handle is not seated and locked.
  • Brown is an alarm that will activate when the lock is electrically activated and will remain on until the lock electrically relocks.
