Quick Start Guide
2 Channel Wiegand Radio Receiver - Up to 30m
5
1.4 Cable Requirements
24 AWG minimum, multi-conductor stranded with an overall foil shield, for example Belden
9540 or similar. Per the SIA’s Wiegand specification, maximum cable length is 500 feet
(152.4 m).
1.5 Output Formats
Wiegand (industry standard 26-bit Wiegand and custom Wiegand formats).
1.6 Grounding
Shield (drain) continuity must run from the Receiver to the access panel. Further, the shield
and Receiver ground must be tied together at the access panel, and must connect to an
earth ground at one point only.
1.7 Power
Power required is 12 VDC nominal at 80 mA. The Receiver may be powered by the access
panel. A linear power supply is recommended for best operation.
1.8 Mounting
The Receiver may be mounted indoors or outdoors. The enclosure includes pre-drilled
holes in the four corners allowing mounting to a flat surface. Use supplied #6 mounting
screws, or equivalent security screws, for installation.
1.9 Read Range
Read range is nominally up to 100 feet (30.5 m). For optimal read range, it is important
that the Receiver be mounted as far from potential interference sources as possible. These
sources may include, but are not limited to, large metal and concrete obstructions, as
well as magnetic fields and radio transmissions. Further range varies based on the height a
Receiver is installed, how a user may hold a Transmitter when being used, and where the
Transmitter is being used. Read range may vary for each installation.
