14 BC615 Installation and User Manual
Installing the card reader
Install the card reader at a height of 120–140 cm (from the floor to the
bottom edge of the card reader). To cater for disabled persons, a
suitable height is approximately 95 cm.
When installing the BC615-Cotag/BC615-EM, care should be taken to
avoid sources of electrical noise, such as motors, generators, pumps,
computer installation and mains cabling.
To install the card reader:
1 Open the card reader with the key supplied. The lock is located on
the underside of the reader.
2 Fasten the back plate against the wall, using three screws
according to the illustration below. Seal the screw and cable holes
with sealant if the unit is externally mounted.
3 Make sure the back plate is earthed. Use a separate cable to the
earthing point. Make sure the front and back plates are connected
with the internal strap.
4 Fit the front and check that the card reader is securely fastened.
Note! If you are using the Bewacard BC615 card reader product to
control an electric lock strike plate – we recommend you to earth the
lock. The wiring should be as near the lock as possible.
