Wiring

The 3525PRX contains two separate 
functional modules: 

The proximity module reads the 
contents of a compatible proximity 
cards 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 proximity reader module

 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:

This signal is used to control the electronic lock slide position.

For UNLOCKED position: Supply 9VDC minimum (do not exceed supply

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, do not 
exceed voltage and current ratings.

FCC Compliance 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:  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. 

RF Exposure Warning: The equipment complies with RF exposure 
limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. The antenna(s) used 
for this transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction 
with any other antenna or transmitter.  

You are cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly 
approved by the party responsible for compliance could void your 
authority to operate the equipment.

Industry Canada Compliance Statement

This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio 
noise emissions from digital apparatus as set out in the interference-
causing equipment standard entitled “Digital Apparatus,” ICES-003 of 
Industry Canada.
