The PR115B and PR116B external smart card LAN readers feature a high security,
encrypted two way authentication transmission format and can be used to provide
alarm and/or access control functionality on selected Solution security control panels.
Constructed from UV stabilised ASA plastic, the external readers provide a high level
of vandal resistance and are weather resistant to IP66 making them ideal for outdoor
installations.
The PR115B and PR116B readers include red, green and blue indicators which are
used to show area and or door lock status at all times.
The reader connects to the control panel via the RS485 encrypted LAN and occupies
a standard keypad position in the panel configuration. Various options can be con-
figured via the Devices - Keypad & Readers menu in panel programming. User access
events are stored in the panel log and can also be reported if required.

Installation
The reader should be installed onto a solid surface using
suitable mounting fixtures. Wiring should only be
performed while the control panel is powered off.
Step 1) Using the 1:1 mounting template supplied, mark
out the location of the 2 mounting holes and
the cable exit hole before drilling out all points
as necessary.

Step 2) If the reader is to occupy an address on the
LAN other than address 1, you will need set the
required address before mounting. Note each
reader on the system must have a unique
address. See Table 2: for more information.
Step 3) Once the address has been set, terminate the
required wires referring to the Connection
Diagram on page 6. Unused wires should be
insulated to prevent short circuits.
Step 4) If using the on board lock output to open the
door, you must make sure to use a relay and
protection diode as shown.
Step 5) Once the wiring is complete, mount the reader
to the wall and fit the cover plate using the M3 x
6mm hex screw.
Reader Operation
LAN Readers can be configured to provide system area
control, door access control or both depending on the
installation requirements.
As there is no LCD display on the readers, feedback is
provided via the red, green and blue indicators and the
reader sounder.
The readers also include an egress input and lock output
which can be used to control door access if required.
i
Note
Using the on board lock output is not recommend-
ed when the reader is being used on an external
wall of the building. In this case it is recommended
that you run the lock control wires directly to an
output located on the main panel or output ex-
pander module located inside the building.
LED Indicators
The Red and Green indicators on the reader show area
status while the Blue indicator shows door status. The
addition of the Blue indicator allows the system to
display both area and door status at the same time if
required.

between areas from this reader. If you require mul-
tiple area status visibility you should use a display
keypad like the CP700B.

To have the reader control an area on the alarm system
you must assign the reader to a home area. See the
Devices-Keypads & Readers-Home Area menu option
in panel programming. If alarm system control is not
required then you should set the home area option to
No Area.
i
Note
When the reader has been configured to do alarm
area control only, the blue indicator will remain off
at all times.
To have the reader control an output (door) on the
system you must assign the reader to an access group.
See the Devices-Keypads & Readers-Access Group menu
option in panel programming.
Once assigned, the on-board Lock output and Egress in-
put are automatically assigned to the same access group
as the reader.

assign a home area and an access group to the reader.
i
Note
When the reader has been configured to do door
control only, the green and red indicators will re-
main off at all times.
Alert Tones
The reader emits several distinct tones to alert you to
particular system events. The volume level cannot be
adjusted on the external LAN readers however it can be
turned off via panel programming by setting the reader
volume to the lowest level. See the Devices-Keypads &
Readers-Commands menu in panel programming.
i
Note
Setting the reader volume to off will stop all audible
warning signals at the reader.
Reader Alert Tones
Event Alert Tone Emitted
Fire
Alarm
If the system registers a fire alarm, the
reader will sound 3 short beeps fol-
lowed by a 1.5 second pause. This will
repeat until reset by the user or until
the siren run time expires.
Burglary
Alarm
If the system registers a burglary
alarm, the reader will sound a continu-
ous siren tone until reset by a user or
until the siren run time expires.
Trouble
If a system trouble condition occurs,
the reader will sound 4 x fast short
beeps followed by a 5 second pause
and will repeat this tone until the user
acknowledges the trouble
condition from a display keypad
Exit
Delay
The exit delay warning will sound 1
short beep every second when the
area the reader has been assigned to
is armed. During the last 10
seconds of exit time the warning tone
will speed up indicating that the time
has nearly expired.
Entry
Delay
The hi/lo entry delay warning tone will
sound once every second when an
entry delay zone in the area the reader
has been assigned to is triggered. If
the system is not disarmed before the
entry time expires then an alarm will
occur.
Error
If an invalid token is presented to the
reader the keypad will sound a 2 sec-
ond warning tone indicating that the
token was rejected for some reason.
See the panel log for more details.
Chime
Alert
If chime mode is active then the read-
er will sound fast short beeps to alert
the user when a zone programmed for
chime is opened. Chime mode is only
applicable when the area is disarmed.
Table 5: Reader Tones
i
Note
When readers are installed outside the premises,
you may prefer that the alert tones are disabled.
See the Devices-Keypads & Readers-Indicator Op-
tions menu in panel programming to disable these
features.

The above examples show how to configure the PR115B
and PR116B readers to control an area and or a door on
a Solution 16i panel. Consult the installation manual for
programming information if you are using a different
panel.
Egress and Lock Control
The LAN reader includes an egress input and a lock out-
put which can be used to simplify the wiring when the
LAN reader is being used for door or access control.
The lock output consists of a protected open collector
transistor that can be used to operate a relay to control
the door lock. The output will go from open to low for
fixed 5 seconds whenever the associated access group
or door assignment is triggered.
i
Note
The on board lock output will operate for a fixed
time period of 5 seconds when triggered. If a dif-
ferent time is required then you should use another
output on the system to operate the door lock.
The lock output, and LAN+ power supply are not de-
signed to operate and power the door lock directly. You
should always fit a relay and protection diode to the lock
output in combination with a separate power supply.
The optional CM444B Relay Module has been designed
to suit this task. If you require the door to operate when
the mains power has failed then you will also need to fit
a battery backup to the external power supply. See the
wiring diagram in Figure 4: for more details.
The Egress input on the LAN reader allows you to sim-
plify the wiring required to implement an egress button
on the inside of the door. The egress input triggers the
lock output on the LAN reader by operating or firing the
associated Access Group or Door Assignment.
The egress input should be connected via a momentary
or push button switch to reader ground. When the but-
ton is pressed the lock output on the reader will trigger
for a fixed 5 second period.
For greater security, if the egress input is not being
used it should be disabled via panel programming. See
Devices-Keypads & Readers-General Options in panel
programming.
i
Note
Any zone on the system can be configured to trigger
an access group and can therefore also be used to
operate the lock output on the LAN reader.

The optional CM444B relay module provides
an easy way to interface the readers lock
output to the door lock.
Because of its small physical size
(12.5 x 46 x 12mm) it can be easily located
in the wall cavity if required.
The egress input
is low (0V) to trigger.
Disable via panel
programming if not
being used.
Address Select Switch. Keypads and LAN
Readers must be set to a unique address as
per “Table 2: Address Table”on page 2
All LAN Readers are supplied from
the factory set to Address 1.
i
Note
You must power cycle the panel or perform
a LAN scan after connecting the PR115B or
PR116B for the system to initialise the reader.
Make sure that the
keypad buzzer opening
is not blocked
during installation
or the volume will be
greatly reduced.
