2.3 Electrical Installation 2.3.1. Grounding Connect the reader directly to an earth ground. An earth ground can be established by driving a copper clad ground rod into the earth. Make certain the DC resistance between your established earth ground and the system ground is 50 Ohms or less.
Notes: • The system must have a single earth ground point. • As shown above, do not connect shield (screen) wire at FlexSmart reader cable splice. • For open collector (non-terminated output), consult your system manufacturer for correct cable length and type. 3.0 Operation When power is first applied to the reader, it performs an internal circuit Self Test™. If it appears to be functioning properly, the reader will flash the amber LED and beep twice.
