Description of Equipment

Siemens AG

7 Description of Equipment
7.1 Stand-alone mode
In Stand-alone mode you have only one RF30-EM controlling one door.
1. Set the Administrator code. See section 8 Change Administrator code.
2. Program cards and Group codes. See section 11 Stand-alone mode.
7.2 System mode
In System mode you can have more than one RF30-EM integrated in a whole
access control system controlled by the SiPass/Bewator Entro software.
Programming can only be done via the SiPass/Bewator Entro software.
NOTE
Do not mount two RF30-EM units back to back on one door. They cannot both control the door latch.
1. Set the Administrator code. See section 8 Change Administrator code.
2. Activate System mode. See section 9 System mode.
3. Check for communication between the RF30 and the SiPass/Bewator Entro
system. See section 9.2 Service mode
4. Mount the RF30-EM. See section 10 Mounting.
Back to Stand-alone mode
Erase the system settings and return to the factory default condition. See
section 12 Erase memory.
7.3 Mounting
The RF30-EM may be fitted on most doors with handle operated ASSA modular
type mortise locks.
When fitted, the external handle is inoperable until a valid card or code is entered.
The internal handle is not affected and will retract the latch bolt as required.
7.4 Wireless communication
The RF30-EM communicates with a host controller via a radio network. Thus the
RF30-EM operates as a wireless reader in an SiPass/Bewator Entro system. All
communication takes place via a Private Area Network (PAN) where either a SR35i
or a router RF9 transmits information via radio to/from the RF30-EM.

7.4.1 Antennae
The card reader antenna is integrated in the upper part of the keypad, so cards
and other tags should be presented to the keypad.
The network antenna is located in the grey plastic housing on the lower face of the
RF30-EM.
7.5 Power down and activation
Normal operational use of the RF30-EM will consume power from the batteries.
When the RF30-EM is not in use, the power consumption is reduced to a minimum
to save batteries.
PIR sensor
A passive infra-red (PIR) sensor “wakes up” the reader when it detects a person
close to the RF30-EM. The RF30-EM is thus ready to provide access to the door
via card and/or Group code/PIN. See section 10.4 Adjust the PIR sensor.
