3E4289 Gallagher T11 Reader | Edion 1 | August 2016

4 Installaon

ATTENTION: This equipment contains components that can be damaged by

electrostac discharge. Ensure both you and the equipment are earthed before

beginning any servicing.

The Gallagher T11 Reader is designed to be mounted on vercally orientated electrical ush (gang)

boxes, or any solid at surface. However installaon on metal surfaces, parcularly those with a large

surface area will reduce read range. The extent to which the range is reduced will depend upon the

type of metal surface.

Note: Consideraon should be given to the installaon environment when using Gallagher mobile

credenals, as the Bluetooth® wireless technology read range may be reduced.

The recommended mounng height for the reader is 1.1 m (3.6 ) from the oor level to the centre of

the reader device. However this may vary in some countries and you should check local regulaons for

variaons to this height.

1. Ensure the building cable has been run out through the ush box.

If you are not mounng to a ush box, use the reader bezel as a guide to drill all ve holes. Drill

the 13 mm (1/2 inch) diameter centre hole (this is the centre hole for which the building cable

will exit the mounng surface) and the four xing holes.

2. Run the building cabling out through the centre hole and through the reader bezel.

3. Secure the bezel to the ush box using the two 6-32 UNC screws provided. It is important the

reader bezel is ush with and ght against the mounng surface.

If you are not mounng to a ush box, secure the bezel to the mounng surface using the four

xing screws provided.

Note: It is strongly recommended that you use the screws provided. If an alternave screw is

used, the head must be no larger nor deeper than that of the screw provided.

Note: Ensure the centre hole allows the cable to run freely out through the mounng surface, so

that the reader facia can clip into the bezel.

4. Connect the reader tail extending from the facia assembly to the building cable. Connect the

wires for the appropriate reader you wish to interface, either an HBUS Reader or a Cardax IV

Reader, as shown in the following diagrams.

Note: Gallagher PIV and mobile credenal readers must be connected as HBUS Readers.
