Installation Standards RM series readers are Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL), Listed to Standard UL 294, Access Control System Units, Fifth Edition. RM series readers must be wired in accordance with the National Electrical Code (ANSI / NFPA 70), local codes, and the authorities having jurisdiction. INSTALLATION To install an RM series reader, perform these steps: 1. Install the RM mount plate 2. Wire the components 3. Connect and ground the cable shields on the reader bus 4. Set the RM-4 (reader) address 5. Install the ARM-1 relay boards (optional) 6. Install the heater kit. (optional) 7. Mount the RM standard housing on the RM mount plate using the Software House security screwdriver (Part number 132-183). Install the RM Mount Plate Figure 2 shows the RM standard housing, mount plate, and gasket. All RM series readers conform to the same housing, mount plate, and gasket dimensions.

RM Mount Plate Dimensions This device has been approved for outdoor use when properly installed with RM Heater Kit Installation (P.N. 130-915) and the supplied gasket material. Position the gasket with the RM mount plate so that the mounting holes are properly aligned. Ensure that the gasket is placed between the mounting surface and mating surface of the RM mount plate. Fasten the RM mount plate to the mounting surface with the gasket material in between. Install the gasket so that no gaps or wrinkles are present. The RM mount plate contains eight mounting holes. However, you do not have to use all eight holes; usually any four of the eight holes are adequate. The mounting holes are 0.156 and provide clearance for 6-32 flat head counter sunk bolts or screws. NOTE RM3 readers have not been evaluated by UL for outdoor use. 6

RM Series Reader Setup RM SERIES READER SETUP To set up an RM series reader 1. Set the Reader Address Switch, SW1 (a 16 position rotary switch, see Figure 5), to a number from one to eight. Each Reader along the bus must have a unique address. 2. The SW3-1, SW3-2, SW3-3, and SW3-6 Configuration Switches are factory preset for the RM readers, as shown in Table 3. However, you can override SW3-4, SW3-5, SW3-7 and SW3-8 if desired. TABLE 3.

RM Series Reader Setup Grounding and Shielding NOTE Single RM Series Reader 1. When connecting an RM series reader to the reader bus, use twisted pair, shielded minimum 22 AWG cable. Attach the shield at one end only, usually at the apc or istar end. To comply with UL requirements, use shielded, minimum 22 AWG stranded, twisted pair cable. Use Belden 8723 or equivalent. 2. Attach a local earth ground (18 or 22 gauge) wire to the J5 component on the RM-4. Multiple RM Bus devices When wiring an RM-4 reader to a bus with multiple devices, such as other RM-4s, I/8s, or R/8s: 1. Attach the shields along the bus together (insulate each connection). Snip off the shield wire at the end of the bus. See Figure 7. 2. Attach the shield to the ground at only one point at the ground stud inside the istar or apc cabinet adjacent to the knockout. 3. Attach a local earth ground (18 or 22 gauge) wire to the J5 component on the RM-4. When wiring more than one RM reader on the bus (Figure 7 ): 1. Attach the shields along the bus together (insulate each connection). Snip off the shield wire at the end of the bus. 2. Attach the shield to the ground at only one point at the ground stud inside the istar or apc cabinet adjacent to the knockout. 3. Attach a local earth ground (18 or 22 gauge) wire to the J5 component.

RM Series Reader Setup Setting Module Address and EOL Termination To set the module address, set SW1 (16 position rotary switch) to a number from one to eight. Every RM series reader on a bus must have a unique address. To set RS-485 EOL (End of Line) termination, set SW3-5 to the On (closed) position if the module is the last unit on the bus. If the module is not the last unit on the bus, SW3-5 should be Off (open). 13

RM Series Reader Setup Figure 8 shows how to connect ARM-1 relay modules to the RM-4 outputs and how to wire NO (Normally Open) and NC (Normally Closed) supervised inputs. FIGURE 8. RM-4 Input/Output Connections NOTE The ARM-1 has not been evaluated by UL. NOTE Maximum distance from P5 to the ARM-1 is 25 feet. Maximum distance from P5 to the inputs is 2000 feet. Locate the 1KΩ resistors for the NO and NC supervised inputs as close as possible to the switch. To comply with UL requirements, use shielded, minimum 22 AWG stranded, twisted pair cable for monitor points, DSMs, and REXs. Use Belden 9855 or equivalent. 14

RM Series Reader Setup Installing the ARM-1 Relay Module Two ARM-1 relay components can be connected to the RM series reader through the P5 connector (Table 7 ). RM P5-1 is the common (+12 VDC) pin for either ARM-1. RM P5-2 is the output drive (GND) for the first relay. RM P5-3 is the output drive (GND) for the second relay. TABLE 7. ARM-1 Wiring Module Wiring ARM-1 Relay ARM P2-1 to RM P5-1 ARM P2-2 to RM P5-2 ARM-2 Relay ARM P2-1 to RM P5-1 ARM P2-2 to RM P5-3 NOTE The ARM-1 has not been evaluated by UL. Installing the Heater (optional) RM readers require a heater kit (Model 130-915) when installed outdoors in an environment and where temperatures may drop below 40 F (5 C). The Model 130-915 heater kit contains the following parts: TABLE 8. Heater Parts Quantity Description 1 Transformer 12 VAC 40VA 2 Heater Strips 1 Thermostat (turns on at 40 F) 3 Wire nuts 2 6-32 x 1/4 screws to mount thermostat to RM plate. Part # 130-915A is supplied without a transformer. A UL Listed Class 2 transformer rated output 12 VAC, 40 VA is required for proper installation. 15

RM Series Reader Setup Figure 9 shows how to wire the RM heater kit. FIGURE 9. RM Heater Kit Wiring Figure 10 shows the location of the heater strips and thermostat on the RM mount plate.. FIGURE 10. RM Installation Applying Heater Strips To apply heater strips: 1. Clean the attachment surface of the RM mount plate with a solvent such as alcohol (use all required precautions when handling solvents). 2. Carefully remove the release film from the adhesive. 3. Locate the heater on the clean surface of the RM mount plate exactly as shown in Figure 10 16

RM Series Reader Setup 4. Gently roll the heater strip in place to remove air bubbles. 5. For maximum adhesion, do not apply pressure to the heater strips for 72 hours. NOTE Air gaps or bubbles under the heater cause localized overheating and possible heater burnout. Also, application of adhesives at temperatures below 50 F is not recommended. Installing the Thermostat To install the thermostat: 1. Fasten the thermostat to the RM mount plate with the body of the device facing the junction box and the face sitting flat against the RM mount plate surface. 2. With the back (or outside) surface facing up, align the thermostat such that the screw holes of the thermostat allow for the 6-32 x 1/4 screws to secure the device to the RM mount plate. 3. Use two (Quantity 2) 6-32 x 1/4 screws to mount the thermostat to the RM mount Plate. Tighten the screws allowing the thermostat to be sufficiently secured to the RM mount plate. Do not over tighten the screws. 17

Testing RM Readers TESTING RM READERS To test RM series readers: 1. Properly configure Readers, Inputs, and Outputs using the C CURE Administration application and put the reader Online. 2. Measure the supply voltage to the RM-4. The voltage can be measured between pin 1 (+12 VDC supply) and pin 4 (ground) on the P4 connector. The voltage must be +12 VDC (+/-5%). 3. Check the RM reader address setting. The RM must be set to an unused address, between 1 and 8, when connected to the apc or istar. Use rotary switch SW1 to set the reader address. 4. Check the RM-4 for communications to the apc or istar by observing LED2 and LED3. 5. Check the supervised inputs. Configure the inputs on the apc or istar using the C CURE Administration application. With no switches or resistors connected to the supervised input 1 and 2 lines, the C CURE Monitoring application should report inputs as Open Loop. When you connect the 1,000-ohm resistor to the input terminals, the C CURE Monitoring application should report that the input as Deactivated. Supervised inputs #1 is found at pins 4 and 5 of P5. Supervised input #2 is found at pins 6 and 7 of P5. 6. Check the outputs. The outputs can be functionally tested by using the momentary activate feature in the C CURE Monitoring application. When the outputs are momentarily activated, the signal will change state for a few seconds. 7. Check the reader interface. The reader interface can only be tested by presenting a card with the appropriate technology to the reader. Reading a card will cause the display to show Access Granted or Access Denied, depending on the clearance of the card. 18
