1.3 Wiring function and color codes
The following shows Signo 25B wiring functions and color codes.
Important:
lBond the ground wires between the Signo 25B power supply and the panel power supply.
lThe 19 pigtail wires and Ethernet cable may be cut for wall mounted installation, if required. However, DO NOT
cut the Ethernet cable shorter than 6 inches (15.24 cm). If the reader is installed outdoors, the pigtails must
remain long enough to fit inside the mounting box to meet IP ratings.
WARNING: WIRING THE READER INCORRECTLY MAY CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE READER.

1.5 Hardware reset the Signo Biometric Reader 25B
Resetting the Signo 25B device to factory defaults should, where possible, be carried out through the HID Biometric
Manager application. Refer to the HID Biometric Manager Administration Guide (PLT-04029). In the event that
communication between HID Biometric Manager and the Signo 25B is not possible, carry out the following hardware
reset at the reader:
1. Unscrew the installation locking screw from the bottom of the Signo 25B mounting bracket.
2. Slide the Signo 25B upwards and remove from the mounting bracket.
3. From the back of the reader, remove the label that covers the contacts.
4. With power supplied to the reader, short the contacts together using a suitable metal object.
5. Maintain the short for a full five seconds. The Signo 25B will beep while you hold the short.
6. One long beep of two seconds confirms the reset. All device settings will be returned to the default. You will need to
install and update the device in order to return it to the former working level.
