Installing and Configuring MA-SIGMA Readers 

 

Wiring the MA SIGMA Reader at Galaxy Controllers 

 

The SIGMA reader supports the reader wiring and is compatible with the 600/635 DRM Board. The Sagem 

install guide recommends 20-24AWG, non-stranded wiring. Galaxy recommends 22 AWG shielded cable.  

 

1.

 

Turn the reader to the back side where you can see the connectors. Rotate the reader upside-down so that the 

wiring pin-out stickers

 are upright/readable.  

2.

 

Locate the first two connectors (from the left) that are used for 

power input

 and 

data wiring

.  

3.

 

On the second connector, insert the Data-0 (D0out) into pin-3, &  Data-1 (D1out) into pin-4 .  

4.

 

On the first connector, insert the Data-GND Wire (DGND) into pin-6. 

5.

 

Land Data 0, Data 1, and Data GND at the correct terminals of the 600 DPI/DRM Board Ground the drain-wire of 

the reader cable shielding to ground at the Galaxy DRM reader terminal.  

6.

 

Insert 

+12V power input wire

 into 

pin-1

 of the first connector 

7.

 

insert the 

ground wire

 into 

pin-2

 of the first connector. 

8.

 

Install (insert) the 3v battery into the battery slot. 

9.

 

Connect Ethernet cable to RJ45 jack. 

WARNING:  Before applying power to the reader, be sure to reference the PIN-OUT STICKER on the 

back of reader to match the wiring according to the reader markings. 

10.

 

Once you test the reader for correct card/biometric recognition, you can permanently mount the reader to the 

wall using the Sagem mounting instructions that came with the reader packaging.
