Speco Conekt ACSR35P User manual

This Quick Start Guide is intended for experienced installing technicians. It is a basic reference to ensure all connections are properly made.
Models include Conekt ACSR35P presentation and ACSR35L long-range readers.
1.0 Introduction
A key component of a physical security electronic access control system, a mobile-ready reader combining BLE and contactless smart card
technologies is based on RFID technology. In operation it is capable of reading data stored on a contactless smartcard credential via high
frequency—or reading data from mobile credential stored in a smartphone’s wallet app via BLE technology—and without physical contact, and
then passing the data obtained to the physical access control system. Access control systems typically manage and record the movement of
individuals through a protected area, such as a locked door.
2.0 Mounting Provisions
Each reader may be installed either indoors or outdoors. Mounting options shown in the table below. Use supplied #6 mounting screws, or
equivalent security screws, for installation.

4.0 Cable Requirements
24 AWG minimum, multi-conductor stranded with an overall foil shield, for example Belden 9535 or similar, supporting the five conductors
comprising the physical layer of the Wiegand interface (power, ground, data 0, data 1, and/or beeper and LED). Alternatively, Belden 9539 or
similar, for all reader functions. Contact your access control system manufacturer for their specific requirements. Per the SIA’s Wiegand
specification, maximum cable length is 500 feet (152 m).
5.0 Output Formats
Wiegand (industry standard 26-bit Wiegand and custom Wiegand formats)
Magnetic Stripe (ABA Track II, clock and data, with card present)
6.0 Grounding
Shield (drain) continuity must run from the reader to the access panel. Shield (drain) and reader ground must be tied together at the access panel
and connect to an earth ground at one point.
7.0 Power
Reader may be powered by the access panel. A linear power supply is recommended for best operation.
NOTES:
aSingle Line LED: This is the standard operating mode and does not
make use of the Orange conductor. The LED is Red when the reader is
idle and flashes when a card is presented. The LED turns Green when
the Brown Conductor is pulled low by the access control panel.
bDual Line LED: This mode makes use of both the Brown and Orange
conductors. The Brown conductor controls the Red LED and the Orange
conductor controls the Green LED. LED states are determined by the
access control system option and capability.
cRead Mode: In regards to contactless smart card credentials, the
reader will only read and output the credential’s Card Serial Number
(CSN) when the Violet conductor is pulled low (connected to ground).
Otherwise, the reader will only read and output the credential’s
programmed Sector data.

P/N: 01402-101 ∙ Rev. 09.19
8.0 Voltage
8 to 14 VDC. 12 VDC at the reader is recommended for best operation.
9.0 Read Mode
For sector data reads, do not connect the Violet conductor (leave it high). For CSN reads, pull the Violet conductor low (connect the Violet
conductor to ground).
10.0 Connection
Connection must be done in accordance with NFPA 70. Do not connect to a receptacle controlled by a switch. Connect to a power limited DC
voltage source.
11.0 Troubleshooting
1. When the reader is first powered on it will beep 4-times, and the LED will shine red.
2. Presenting a supported access credential will result in the reader beeping and the LED flashing once.
3. Mobile operation is optimized for smartphones supporting Bluetooth LE version 4.2. Further, for the downloading of mobile access credentials,
a stable, high-quality internet connection is recommended.
NOTE: The access panel controls LED functionality, such as switching the LED to green.
If the reader does not recognize the mobile credential or card or tag (no beep, no LED flash) or exhibits short read range, please see the table
below for possible causes and solutions.
Possible Cause Corrective Action
Incorrect cabling Verify gauge, connections and cabling length
Not enough power 12 VDC recommended
Incorrect credential used Verify if credential technology is supported
Reader/access panel not properly grounded Earth ground needed—verify shield and reader ground are tied at access panel and connect
to ground at one point
Supply generating interference Linear power supply recommended, verify switching power supply before use
Should any of the corrective actions mentioned above not improve performance, disconnect the reader from the access panel and power it with a
separate power supply or 9VDC battery, and re-test card functionality. By powering the readers separately, most variables that may lead to
reduced performance can be eliminated. Should the problem persist, please contact Speco Technologies directly.
