output connecting point ( 8P orange connecting point ).
B. Duress alarm output connecting point ( 8P yellow
connecting point ).

(2) If door sensor detecting (such as reed switch) points are

applied, please set ALARM to ON mode.
For setting method, please refer to setting mode functional
selection item 7 in the manual.

3. For installation, please link power supply wire and control wire
through the base panel first and then fix the base panel onto the
wall.

4. Install the proximity reader on the base panel (power supply wire
and control wire must first be inserted and the wires must be
arranged correctly), and then use the enclosed key wrench and
screws to mount it up.

5. Power supply: DC 12V 500~800mA.

7. Dimensions: 125mm (L) X 33mm (W) X 70mm (H).

＊ DO NOT SHARE THE SAME POWER SUPPLY OF BOTH

ELECTRIC LOCK AND PROXIMITY READER TOGETHER. USERS
SHOULD PROVIDE SEPARATE POWER SUPPLY FOR BOTH OF
THEM.

VI. PRECAUTIONS :
1. Before installation, please check the voltage and polarity of the
power supply in order to avoid wrong connection causing damage
to the reader.

2. Please do not share the power supply together with the electric lock
and the proximity reader .

3. Please do not install metal product or monitor near this equipment

in order to avoid distance proximity.

4. Please do not conduct any repairment or any modification to the

system, unless by qualified personnel

5. Warranty period for the reader is 1 year.

VII. TROUBLESHOOTING
1. Card sensed but the door lock doesn’t work.

Solution: (1) Please check if the power supply is on the

proximity reader and the electric lock.
(2) If (1) is checked, please check the electric lock power
supply and whether the connecting points are correct.
(3) Continuous proximity. Please remove the card from
the reader and try again.
(4) Please check whether the door opening mode is
correct.

3. System password is entered but cannot enter into various

functional selection of the setting mode.

Solution : Incomplete input of system password, please check

whether the following format has been entered:
14
 ＊#XXXX# (XXXX represents system password), or first
press “＊” then enter valid system password ＊#XXXX#.

4. How to use the duress code setting?

Solution : (1) Users should change door opening mode to 4-digit

password door opening(mode code 1), or proximity card
or 4-digit password door opening(mode code 4) in order
to enable duress code setting.

(2)After the door opening mode is set (please refer to

item 5 of the setting mode functional selection on how
to set door opening mode), press “＊# The Duress code +
4-digits door opening password #”, then the duress
alarm output function will execute.

5. How to terminate anti-damage activation or duress alarm activity?

Solution : Enter into system setting mode or open the door.

6. What is the operation of the door sensor detection (reed switch)?

Solution : If the door sensor detection function is being set at ON
