2. Wiring
Use either a Power over Ethernet (POE) adapter or a power adapter to
provide power to the GV-AS1520.
IMPORTANT: GV-AS1520 can only accept PoE power supply or the DC
power adapter as one power source. Connecting two power sources at the
same time will cause damage to the unit.
Note:
1. The total power consumption must be under 25 W when using a POE
adapter.
2. The barrier open signal in DO_NO1 only supports DC current.

1. RS-485 Card Readers
1.1 Connect with up to 2 readers through a single RS-485 cable.
1.2 When connecting a second reader, a separate power source is
required to power the second reader.
2. Input Device
2.1 The input is dry contact.
2.2 The input can be configured as normally open (NO) or normally
closed (NC) through the Web interface.
3. Output Devices
3.1 Each relay output (DO_NO1 ~ 4) can only support a maximum
power consumption of 30V DC, 500mA.
4. Connecting the PC
4.1 Use TCP/IP to connect GV-AS1520 to a computer that allows
you to access its Web interface and GV-ASManager if the
computer is installed with GV-ASManager.
5. Connecting the Power
5.1 When using a Power Adapter connect the 12V DC and GND
wires to a 12V DC power adapter and then connect the power
adapter to a power source.
5.2 When using PoE adapter, power will be provided to the device
through the Ethernet cable.

3.1 Installing GV-AS1520
You can install the reader on a pole or a pillar. Two types of pole mounts
are recommended, as indicated below.
Note: Make sure the diameter of the pole is within 53 mm (0.17 ft).

3.2 Installation Considerations
1. Install the RFID reader with the antenna paralleled to the Tag for better
reading results.
The Tag receives signals and returns them to the Reader
2. Install the RFID Reader and Tag as shown below.

3. RFID Reader Installation Position
3.1 Do not install RFID Reader near metal or the metallic
substance will affect the electromagnetic field type.
3.2 Recommended height to set RFID reader is 1.8 ~ 2.2 m (5.9 ~
7.2 ft). The height should not be lower than the location of RFID
Tag.
3.3 Recommended angle to set RFID reader is 15-20 degree.
Adjust the angle according to the actual installation site.

3.4 Keep any barrier away from the reading zone between RFID
Reader and the Tag.

5. Recommended Tag Position
Vehicles
5.1 Place the tag on the front windshield or headlight, at the
nearest reading range to the reader.
5.2 When placing the Tag on the headlight, keep the Tag away from
the metal body of the vehicle.
5.3 If the car windshield glass contains metallic line, it will affect the
reading range. To avoid such situation, install the Tag on the
headlight.
5.4 Windshield insulation films that contain metal ingredients will
affect the reading range. To avoid such situation, install the Tag
on the headlight.

5.5 Install the Tag on the front shield and at the closest range to the
RFID Reader.
5.6 If there is no front shield available, it is suggested to install the
Tag on the plastic body of motorcycle at the closest range to
the RFID Reader.
6. For card-type tags, hold the card as shown below to ensure reading
results.
