Magnetic Card Reader
Models SMR-10 and SMR-20
Installation and Maintenance Instructions
23884539
General
The SMR10/20 family of magnetic stripe card readers are designed for reading standard or high-coercivity magnetic stripe
cards. The SMR20 also provides a 12-key keypad for PIN entry. The SMR10/20 provides a TTL interface. The following
paragraphs describe instructions for installing and maintaining the card reader.
Mounting the Reader
Find a suitable location to anchor the reader mounting bracket. The reader may be mounted vertically or horizontally. See
recommended orientation. The mounting of the reader does not require a junction box. However,rigid conduit is required for
outdoor application. A single gang junction box may be used to provide a transition to rigid conduit. If a single gang junction box
is used, a wall plate (optional) may be used to cover the junction box. The reader is then secured to the mounting bracket using
a screw. Refer to figures for reader dimensions and typical junction box usage.
Recommended Not Recommended
Reader Wiring
The reader has a RJ-11 modular jack for easy field connection. A small piece of pre-terminated cable is supplied with each
standard reader for field wiring. The pre-terminated cable has nonstandard color. Refer to pin number if the pre-terminated cable
is not used. Cable with wires of 24AWG or larger are recommended for field wiring.

Connecting the Keypad
The SMR20 reader provides a 12-key keypad for PIN entry. The flex tail of the keypad is connected to the electronic board via a
ZIF (zero insertion force) connector. The contacts are engaged/disengaged by a moving slide. Care must be exercised when
connecting and disconnecting the keypad. When connecting the keypad to the board, open the slide as shown. Insert the
electronics into the housing and insert flex tail in the ZIF connector. Then, close the slide to engage the contacts. To disconnect
the keypad, follow the previously described steps in reverse.
Slide Disengaged Slide Engaged
Weather-Proofing the Reader
The reader is rated to operate over an extended temperature range.
However, if the reader is expected to be exposed to weather, the
weatherized option (-OW) must be ordered. The option is implemented
in two parts. With the (-OW) option, the electronics is conformal
coated against moisture. A tube of dielectric grease is supplied for the
installer to coat field connections to complete the procedure. After field
connection/configuration is made, the grease is to be applied on the
DIP switch slides, keypad connection, and the RJ-11 jack to seal out
moisture.
ÎDo not use sealant to seal reader case to the wall. Doing so will
trap water in the reader and may cause damage to the reader.
TTL Interface
The TTL interface has the standard 5-wire interface widely used
in the access control application. In addition, an input to control
the buzzer is provided. Cable with minimum of 24AWG wires
should be used.

Grounding the Reader
To avoid having ESD (electrostatic discharge) interfering with the operation of the reader, the reader casing shall be grounded.
This can be accomplished by tying the mounting bracket to earth ground locally (e.g. grounded conduit).

DIP Switch/Jumper Setting
The DIP switch/jumper on the SMR10/20 readers are used to select a preset
format. This preset format determines how the card is interpreted, the functions
for the LED and buzzer, and the output signal format, etc. Refer to the format
specification for detail. The settings are for STANDARD models ONLY.

SMR10/20 Standard Format Code Summary
The following formats are supported in standard models (300x2-0000/310x2-0000).Unless otherwise indicated, the LED input
line controls both LEDs (low=green, high=red); the BUZZER input controls the buzzer (low = activate); a good read is signaled
by a flash of the green LED; a bad read is signaled by a flash of the red LED and a double beep of the buzzer.

Keypad Data and Tamper Monitor Signalling
Keypad data and tamper monitor status are transmitted on the data lines as 8-bit blocks. They are encoded and sent using the
same signaling method as selected for the card data output (clock/data or data 1/data 0). If Dorado 8-bit keypad data format is
required order the -K1 option. Card data, tamper status data, and keypad data blocks are separated by a minimum of 100
milliseconds. See following for codes:
10110000 - 0 (ASCII ‘0’, odd parity, MSB first) 00110001 - 1 (ASCII ‘1’, ...)
00110010 - 2 (ASCII ‘2’, ...) 10110011 - 3 (ACSII ‘3’, ...)
00110100 - 4 (ASCII ‘4’, ...) 10110101 - 5 (ASCII ‘5’, ...)
10110110 - 6 (ASCII ‘6’, ...) 00110111 - 7 (ASCII ‘7’, ...)
00111000 - 8 (ASCII ‘8’, ...) 10111001 - 9 (ASCII ‘9’, ...)
00101010 - * (ASCII ‘*’, ...) 00100011 - # (ASCII ‘#’, ...)
11010011 - SAFE (ASCII 'S', ...) 01010100 - ALARM (ASCII ‘T’, ...)
Reader Verification
The reader performs a self-test when power is first applied to the unit. If power-on test is successfully completed, The reader
will turn on both LEDs for approximately 1 second and sound the buzzer for 1 short beep. Then the reader is ready for normal
operation.
If further verification of the reader hardware is needed, the reader may be temporarily set to format T. With this format selected,
the reader will read and verify standard ANSI track 2 encoded card. If no read error is detected, the green LED will flash.
Otherwise, the red LED will flash and the buzzer will sound two short beeps to indicate an error. The LED input can be used
to verify the LED function; and the buzzer input for the buzzer function. For the SMR20, the reader will echo a key press with a
brief flash of both LEDs and a short beep of the buzzer. Reset to the required format for normal operation after test.
Maintenance
The readers are designed to provide continuous service with minimal routine maintenance. However, contaminants (such as
magnetic oxides from badges and dirt) tend to accumulate on the read head. Without regular cleaning, these contaminants will
shorten the read head life and increase the probability of card read error. A maintenance schedule should be developed base
on the card reader environment (dirty or clean) and the usage frequency (light traffic or heavy traffic). Extreme case may require
daily cleaning.
Head cleaning may be done by using a disposable, pre-saturated magnetic head cleaning card. These cards are readily
obtainable from a number of sources (e.g. Clean Team Co., www.cleanteam.com, 800-888-8830; KIC Products,
www.kicproducts.com, 207-514-7030; System ID, www.systemid.com 888-648-4452).
The reader exterior surface is covered with high strength polymer and polyester membrane. It may be cleaned with a soft cloth
and mild detergent if required.
The reader is for use in low voltage, class 2 circuits only.
Highlighted states are
compatible with the
CT5000 or the WRI.
