1Mount the mounting plate
CAUTION: Install the reader on a
flat, stable surface. Failure to do
so may compromise the IP rating
and/or tamper feature. If mounting
on or near metal, a spacer is
recommended for optimal read
performance. Refer to the Readers
and Credentials How to Order Guide
(PLT-02630) for available options
and part numbers.
CAUTION: Use the supplied
screws to ensure correct fitting
and to avoid damaging the reader
or mounting plate. HID is not
responsible for damage due to use
of unapproved mounting hardware.
For Imperial (US):
Use supplied flat head/countersunk
0.138-32 x 0.375” screws.
For Metric (EU etc):
Use supplied flat head/countersunk
M3.5 x 12mm screws.
ATTENTION
Observe precautions for handling
ELECTROSTATIC SENSITIVE DEVICES
Optional features
Tamper – Enabled by default and activated when the mounting plate is removed. The tamper is normally closed
and changes to open circuit between Tamper 1 and Tamper 2 control lines. Tamper 1 and Tamper 2 control lines are
interchangeable. Either of these lines can be connected with the reader ground line to reduce the number of cable cores
required in the reader cable. Tamper 1 and Tamper 2 are rated 0–12VDC at 100mA.
Hold Input – When asserted, this line either buers a card (default) or disables a card read until released, as configured.

*Dependent upon reader configuration
Note: Wiring the reader incorrectly may permanently damage the reader.
Note: Previous iCLASS® readers had reversed RS-485 wiring (P2-7 & P2-6 - A & B). When upgrading to a HID Signo
reader, ensure proper connections as defined above.
Note: Data 0 and Data 1 wires for Wiegand may be reused for OSDP. However, standard Wiegand cable may not meet
RS485 twisted pair recommendations.
Note: For OSDP cable lengths greater than 200 ft (61 m) or EMF interference, install 120Ω+/- 2Ωresistor across RS-
485 termination ends.
Note: For keypad configuration, with the keypad reader operating as 26 bit emulation, enter the facility code followed
by # within five seconds of power-up. The facility code must be entered as three digits (i.e., for a facility code of 10
enter 0-1-0-#). If unsuccessful, the reader LED displays solid red. Power-cycle the reader and retry entering the facility
code.
HID Signo readers use facility codes between 1-255, and no default is set. Once a facility code is entered, the reader
LED displays violet, then solid red. Then, power-cycle the reader. If there are two short beeps after entering a PIN, the
reader facility code is not configured. In this case, power-cycle the reader and retry entering the facility code.
