NOTE: prox.pad plus RS 485 communications—The prox.pad plus unit communicates with
the host computer via the IEI RS232-RS485 interface (part number IEI232-485). For additional
details see pages 16 and 17. For wire specifications, see page 23.
NOTE: Use with IEI Secured Series™ (Hub, Hub Max, Hub MiniMax) Networks—The RS
485 network characteristics for the prox.pad plus unit are different than those of IEI’s Secured
Series access systems. This means the prox.pad plus unit can operate in the same system
as Secured Series controllers but not on the same physical network. Hub Manager Profes-
sional software (v5 or higher) can manage Secured Series doors and prox.pad plus doors
(and LS doors as well), but these door controllers cannot be “connected” to the same net-
work and network wires. Secured Series communication is RS-232; prox.pad plus communica-
tion is RS-485. These communication protocols are different. However, the ability of the Hub
Manager Professional software to set up multiple local and LAN/WAN sites makes this an ad-
vantage rather than a problem.

Performing a Secure Installation
(keypad/controller away from antenna)
In this configuration, the prox.pad plus keypad/controller antenna housing is removed from
the keypad/controller and located a maximum of 10 feet away. The controller/keypad is
located inside a secure area.
1. Remove the antenna from the prox.pad plus keypad/controller as described below:
•Disconnect the backplate of the prox.pad plus unit from the front keypad/controller.
•When handling the main printed circuit board, to guard against possible static
discharges, touch a grounded object BEFORE touching the prox.pad plus unit.
Remove the main printed circuit board by pressing the two spring tabs in the direc-
tionofthearrowsasshowninFigure3.Becarefulwiththewires.
•Pull up the main circuit board and remove Pin connector P4 (a 4-pin connector)
from the bottom of the main board. A ribbon cable now holds the main board to the
keypad board. DO NOT pull this ribbon cable out of its connector! Once the
main board is removed, you can access the interior of the antenna.
•Remove the antenna housing from the keypad/controller by pressing the labeled
four secure tabs inward until the sensor housing “pops out.”
2. Prepare the wiring and extension wiring as follows:
•Cut off the plastic end of the prox.pad plus sensor housing harness.
•Splice the recommended remote antenna cable Alpha 1174C (22AWG), 10-foot maxi-
mum length, to the properly cut antenna cable using standard electrical techniques.

3. Mount the antenna backplate in a vertical orientation and secure it to the wall through
the two screw holes using two IEI-provided screws. Ensure that the two “weep holes”
(drainage holes), provided to remove possible moisture, are positioned on the bottom.
Pull the antenna wire through the wiring exits in the antenna backplate as required.
(Four external cut-outs on the antenna backplate match the four spring-loaded tabs on
the antenna.)
NOTE: Two side cut-outs are furnished on the antenna backplate for the wiring, if
the installation does not permit the wiring to run through the wall. These must be
“cut out” to be used.
•Once the antenna backplate is mounted properly, align the antenna to the backplate
and connect the antenna to the antenna backplate. The large tab in the center of the
antenna assembly must be broken off before being attached to the antenna back-
plate.
4. Run the antenna wiring back to the secure keypad/controller and connect it to the
main circuit board, using the 10-inch 4-wire harness (red, black, white, and white)
that you plug into connector P4 on the controller board. Connect the red wire of the
antenna to the red wire of the P4 harness, etc. Seal the wire holes with silicone.
5. Select “Filler” or “Request to Exit” (REX) operation as follows:
•If you elect to use the filler piece as a REX switch, return to the keypad/controller and
break off two tabs on the filler piece as illustrated in Figure 2. The filler piece replaces
the antenna on the front of the keypad/controller for secure installations.
•If the filler piece is not be be used as a REX switch, DO NOT remove the two
tabs.
•Select “Filler or “REX” operation and affix the appropriate IEI-provided label to the
filler piece.
ForFilleroperation,notabsarebrokenoffthefillerpiece, which merely sits in place
of the remotely located antenna, once the main circuit board and cabling are re-
placed.
For REX operation, break off the labeled tabs, which allows a spring-loaded tab to
engage the REX switch on the main circuit board and open the door.
•Replace the main circuit board into the keypad/controller and Pin connector P4 to the
main circuit board.
•Connect the front keypad/controller of the unit to the back housing.
•Secure with a hex socket screw using the supplied hex wrench, or secure with a
tamper screw (optional tool required).

Wiring the REX Switch (Request to Exit)
The prox.pad plus unit can be wired to monitor a remote switching device, which is intended
to be installed on the “safe” side of a door. The Request to Exit (REX) switch is a momentary
input closure that engages the main relay forthesamelengthoftimeforwhichthemain
relay is programmed. This feature can be stored in the Transaction Log for viewing.
If you elect to perform a secure installation where the controller is mounted on the secure
side of the door, you can use the filler piece as a REX switch.
Other REX devices can be used to include a remote button placed at a receptionist’s desk,
a press-to-exit switch on the inside of a door, or a passive infrared detector, allowing free and
convenientegress.TheREXfeaturerequiresnoprogramming;simplywiretheunitasillus-
trated in Figure 8. To incorporate this feature, follow the steps below:
1. Turn OFF power to the prox.pad plus unit, and then remove the front keypad/controller
from the backplate.
2. Locate connector P2 on the main circuit board.
3. Plug the 6-conductor harness into connector P2. (The 2-pin jumper on pins 5 and 6
of connector P2 must be removed first.)
4. If you do not wish to install the door contacts per Figure 8, twist the white wire
and the orange wires together; this is mandatory. If this is not done, the REX
input will not function.
NOTE: The door contact MUST be closed for the REX feature to work properly.

Wiring the Main Relay
The door lock is wired to connector P1 on the prox.pad plus main circuit board.
Wiring for this 5-pin connector is described in the first table on page 7. Figure 9 provides an
Electric Strike (Fail Secure) wiring diagram, Figure 10 a MagLock (Fail Safe) wiring diagram.
Power for the prox.pad plus unit must be from a minimum 10-15 volt DC linear, filtered and
regulated power supply. It is typical for the chosen power supply to power BOTH the
prox.pad plus unit and the selected locking device. When using one power supply for both
the prox.pad plus unit and locking device, be sure to include both devices in your current
requirements calculations.
NOTE: IEI recommends that you ground the power supply to earth ground.
