Working Principle

Number 1, 2, 3, 4 of the dip switch are used to set the address of RS485, 5 is the

restart switch, and 6 is the Terminal Resistance.

Number 5 is the restart switch: dial up and dial down. The machine will restart.

The right side figure shows the address number setting.

Number 6 switch is used to set the terminal resistance in RS485.

Communication: If the 485 communication wire is longer, than 100 meters, it is

needed to set the number 6 dip switch of the last reader to ON state, that is

parallel a terminal resistance of 120 ohm between 485+ and 485-.

Verification Proccess

Safety Precautions

1. Power cable should be connected at last, after all the wiring. If the device is

working abnormally, immediately shutdown the device.

2. Please read the terminals description and wiring by rule strictly. Any damage

caused by improper operations will be out of the range of our guarantee.

3. Please connect the ‘GND’ before all the other wiring especially under the

serious electrostatic environment.

4. Keep the exposed part of wire less than 5mm to avoid unexpected connection,

and result in machinery damage.

5. If the distance between power supply and device is little long, please do not

use the Internet cable or other types of cable instead. When choosing the

power supply cable, you should consider that the transmission distance may

cause voltage attenuation.

Connection with the controller:

Unsuccessful: LED flashes blue light twice every one second.

Successfully: LED flashes blue light once every one second.

When verifying the fingerprint or punching the card:
