Installer Programming

The Readers utilize built in programming functions that enable options to be configured via an RS-485 to

Serial or USB Interface. A 125kHz capable Reader can also be programmed using a 125kHz programming

card. These cards cannot be used to program the 13.56MHz series of Reader.

Entering RS-485 Programming Mode

1. Complete the wiring connections as shown for using an RS-485 USB Converter (see page 16).

Ensure that the unconnected wires are not shorting to each other or any other connection point. You can

still configure the units if they are terminated to a reader interface you will require the +, - and NA, NB

connections to be connected to the RS-485 USB Converter.

2. Make a short between the brown and white wires.

3. Open Hyper Terminal or a similar serial terminal program, set the communications port to the RS-485

USB Converter and set the parameters to 38400, N, 8, 1 and VT100 terminal emulation.

4. Power up the card reader and RS-485 USB Converter. A configuration menu will appear.

Data entry and the menu will time out after 40 seconds of no activity and restart the reader, any programming

changes will be lost.

Entering 125kHz Programming Mode

Applies to the 125kHz capable series of Readers.

125kHz programming mode is entered by presenting a programming card to the unit within the first 2 minutes

of power being applied. The Reader beeps twice to indicate 125kHz programming mode has been entered.

Data entry and the menu times out after 2 minutes of no activity and reverts back to normal activity, any

programming changes will be lost.

SY-SIX-TSEC | Synergis IX Card Reader | Installation Manual

Last Updated July 2018 18

To program the reader using 125kHz mode:

1. Present the 125kHz programming card to the reader to enter programming mode.

2. Wait for the Reader to beep twice.

3. Present the same card to the Reader the number of times matching the data value option for the selected

address.

4. Wait for the Reader to beep twice.

5. Present the same card the required number of times to set the desired option (as outlined by the 125kHz

setting column in the tables below).

6. Wait for the Reader to beep twice indicating the data has been programmed correctly. At this stage the

Reader is waiting for a new address to program.

7. If additional settings are required, repeat the above steps.

An invalid entry will result in a long tone being generated. The data can be entered again or allow the

Reader to timeout to select another address.

8. Once complete, leave the programming interface to time out.

Example: To program Address 1 (Card/Tag Format), present the programming card to the reader once. The

card Reader will respond by beeping twice to indicate data entry mode has been entered and that you can

present the card the required number of times to set the desired option.
