Installation Note
Gallagher T10 Mifare Reader
The Gallagher T10 Mifare Reader
The Gallagher T10 Mifare reader is a smart card proximity reader. It can
be installed as either an entry reader or exit reader.
The reader can read Mifare DESFire EV1, Mifare Plus and Mifare Classic
cards.
The reader sends information to the Cardax FT Controller and acts upon
information sent from the Cardax FT Controller. The reader itself does not
make any access decisions.
The Gallagher T10 Mifare reader uses the “Cardax IV Reader”
communications protocol to communicate with the Cardax FT Controller.
This equipment contains components that can be damaged by
electrostatic discharge. Ensure both you and the equipment are
earthed before beginning any servicing.

Power Supply
The Gallagher T10 Mifare reader receives power from the device to which
it is connected. The reader is designed to operate over a supply voltage
range of 9 - 16Vdc measured at the reader terminals. The operating
current will be approximately 40mA (at 16Vdc) and 70mA (at 9Vdc).
The operating current will increase to approximately 120mA (at 12Vdc)
momentarily during a card read, beeper and LED activity.
The power source should be linear or a good quality switched-mode power
supply. The performance of the reader may be affected by a low quality,
noisy power supply.
Cabling
The Gallagher T10 Mifare reader requires a minimum cable size of 4
core 24 AWG (0.2mm2) stranded security cable. This cable allows the
transmission of data (2 wires) and power (2 wires). When using a single
cable to carry both power supply and data, both the power supply voltage
drop and data requirements must be considered. For good engineering
design, it is recommended that the voltage at the reader should be
approximately 12Vdc.
The critical specifications for the cable are:
Data: The capacitance between any two wires or between
a wire and any shielding should be less than 24nF
Power supply: The voltage at the reader must be at least 9Vdc
Examples of approved cables for connecting a single Gallagher T10 Mifare
reader to a Controller and power supply, showing maximum cable lengths
for each type of cable and the associated circuits are:

Distance between Proximity Readers
The distance separating any two proximity readers must not be less than
200mm (8 inches) in all directions.
200mm
When mounting a proximity reader on an internal wall, check that any
reader fixed to the other side of the wall is not less than 200mm (8 inches)
away.

Installation
The Gallagher T10 Mifare reader is designed to be mounted on any solid
flat surface. However installation on metal surfaces, particularly those with
a large surface area will reduce read range. The extent to which the range
is reduced will depend upon the type of metal used.
The recommended mounting height for the reader is 1.1m (3.6ft) from the
floor level to the centre of the reader device. However this may vary in
some countries and you should check local regulations for variations to this
height.

Using the drill template at the back of this installation note as a1.
guide, drill all three holes. Drill the 13mm (1/2 inch) diameter centre
hole (this is the centre hole for which the building cable will exit the
mounting surface) and the two fixing holes.
Run the building cabling out through the centre hole and through the2.
reader base.
Secure the base to the mounting surface using the two fixing screws3.
provided. It is important the base of the reader is flush with and tight
against the mounting surface.
Note: Ensure the centre hole allows the cable to run freely out through
the mounting surface, so that the reader facia can clip into the base.

Insert the M3 Torx Post Security screw (using a T10 Torx Post Security6.
screwdriver) through the hole at the bottom of the base to secure the
facia assembly.
Note: The recommended torque for the security screw is 0.7Nm
(0.5 lb/ft). It is important not to exceed the maximum torque of
1.5Nm (1.1 lb/ft).

Connecting to the Cardax FT Controller 3000-4R or 3000-8R
The Cardax FT Controller 3000-4R can interface up to four Gallagher T10
Mifare readers into the Cardax FT Command Centre system. The Cardax
FT Controller 3000-8R can interface up to eight Gallagher T10 Mifare
readers into the Cardax FT Command Centre system.
The ports to which the Gallagher T10 Mifare reader can connect are set up
as groups, as follows:
Two groups (numbered 1 and 2) on the Controller 3000-4R, and•
Four groups (numbered 1 to 4) on the Controller 3000-8R•
Each group provides connection for two Gallagher T10 Mifare readers.
Refer to the following diagram for the location of the ports on the Cardax
FT Controller 3000-8R.
Note: Even though there are only two groups of ports on the Cardax FT
Controller 3000-4R, they are located in the same position.

Note: Within each group, you cannot mix Cardax IV readers with Wiegand
Readers. This is because connecting one Wiegand reader requires all four
pins on plug PB. For example, if you connect a Cardax IV reader to Port
1 of Group 1, Port 2 of Group 1 can only connect to another Cardax IV
reader.
