Installation Note

CAUTION

This equipment contains components that can be damaged by

electrostatic discharge. Ensure both you and the equipment are

earthed before beginning any servicing.

The Cardax FT Intelligent Door Terminal (Mifare Series)

The Cardax FT Intelligent Door Terminal Mifare Series (IDT) is a "remote"

proximity tag reader with text display and an inbuilt intercom.

The IDT can be installed as either an entry and/or exit reader, and the intercom

enables communication with the console operator.

The IDT has a back-lit keypad and an inbuilt Liquid Crystal Display (LCD).

The LCD can display both text and graphics to aid the Cardholder.

The IDT sends information to the Cardax FT Controller and acts upon

information sent from the Cardax FT Controller. The IDT itself does not make

any decisions.

A Cardax FT IDT Cover can be fitted over the IDT to prevent the IDT being

damaged by vandal attack and to increase protection against harsh weather.

Refer to the Prox Reader and IDT Covers Installation Note (part number

3C4589).

Before you begin Shipment contents Open the box and check that the following items have been supplied: • • • • • • • • 1 x Cardax FT IDT Mifare Base. 1 x Cardax FT IDT Mifare facia assembly (includes printed circuit boards, processor, display and keypad). 1 x interconnect printed circuit board. 1 x copy of this installation note. 1 x cable assembly. 4 x pan-head self-tapping screws. 4 x screw caps. 1 x M4x12, tamper-resistant, Torx-head machine screw. Software The IDT requires version vMP3.

RS485 communications Use high-quality, low-capacitance, twisted-pair cable. Category 5 (CAT 5) cable is suitable. DC power Ensure the cable size is adequate for correct operation of the IDT. Mounting Note: The IDT has been designed to metric specifications, therefore any imperial measurements provided are approximate only. The IDT is designed to mount on any solid, flat surface. The card read range is reduced when the IDT is mounted on or near metal surfaces.
PAGE 4
Fastening the base to the mounting surface Note: It is important that the base of the IDT is flush with, and tight against, the mounting surface. If you are mounting the IDT on a rough surface, make the surface as smooth as possible under the IDT and up to 25 mm (1 inch) around the IDT. 1. Mark the position where the IDT is to be mounted. 2. Drill a 20 mm (¾ inch) diameter hole through the mounting surface for the base extrusion. 3. Optionally, drill four pilot holes for the four fixing screws.

When to terminate the communications cable If this IDT is the last unit on the communications cable run, verify that the RS485 termination link is in place. If this IDT is not the last unit on the cable run, remove the link. The location of this link is shown in Component layout next.

2. Use a small screwdriver to set the switch to the required address number. The Unit Address switch is calibrated for hexadecimal numbers. Use the table to convert an IDT address to the corresponding switch setting.

Removing the facia 1. Using a tamper-resistant Torx-head tool, remove the M4 security screw from the underside of the facia. 2. Pull the base of the facia away from the base plate. 3. Slide the facia's attachment lugs out of the guides at the rear of the base plate. Technical Specifications Routine maintenance and serviceable parts Not applicable for the IDT. Cleaning Wipe the IDT with a lint-free damp cloth. DC supply Voltage 13.
