• 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. After the Self Test™ is completed, the
reader is in a READY status mode and you may present the card to the reader.
3.1 Presenting the Card
To obtain maximum read range, present the card to the reader, keeping the card parallel to the
FlexSmart reader, move it slowly toward the face of the reader until a QuickFlash™ (refer to section 3.3)
is obtained. This is the point at which the card is read and the data is transmitted to the controller. To
read the card again, remove it from the antenna field and present it again. During normal use, the card
can be presented to the antenna at any angle, although this will result in a reduced read range.
3.2 Data Output
The readers are capable of outputting in either Wiegand or magnetic stripe formatted data. For further information
please call technical support at [phone]
