Introduction
The Premier Elite iProx module can be installed in one of two modes:
Network Mode
The network mode allows the Premier iProx to be connected to the network terminals of the
Premier Elite 24/48/88/168/640 control panels. This mode provides the following facilities:
•Built in proximity reader using standard Premier Elite proximity tags
•Connections for optional external reader Premier Elite External Prox
•26bit Wiegand interface to allow support for 3rd party access control readers
•Support for Key Seven SA840-A20 keypad
•Proximity tags/user codes are stored in the control panel
•Request To Exit (RTE) input
•Voltage free contacts (3 Amps) for connection to door strike
•Internal sounder and extension loudspeaker connections
•Can be used as an arming station or as door access only.
•Standard 7/0.2 alarm cable can be used for most installations. However, under certain
conditions it may be necessary to use screened cable.
The maximum number of tags/users codes that can be stored is dependent on the number of
users available on the control panel.
Stand-alone Mode
The stand-alone mode allows the Premier Elite iProx to be used as a simple door access
controller. This mode provides the following facilities:
•Built in proximity reader using standard Premier proximity tags
•Connections for optional external reader Premier External Prox
•26bit Wiegand interface to allow support for 3rd party access control readers
•Up to 10 proximity tags can be stored in the module
•Request To Exit (RTE) input
•Voltage free contacts (3 Amps) for connection to door strike
•Internal sounder and extension loudspeaker connections

Using Premier Elite Proximity Tags
This configuration allows you to use the standard proximity tags that are used with the Premier &
Premier Elite keypads. The tags MUST be learnt at a keypad which has a built in proximity reader.
The figure below shows a typical installation:
Installation
Remove all power from control panel before making any connections.
1. Install the module in the required location making sure that it is mounted away from metal
objects and other cables as these can affect the performance of the unit.
2. Connect the network connections of the module to the network connections of the control
panel.
3. Connect the optional devices such the door strike, RTE button and loudspeaker.
4. Set the Internal/External coil jumper links  to Internal (Int).
5. Ensure that Options switch 1 is set to ON (Internal Prox. Enabled) and switches 2, 3 and 4
are set as required, see page 4.
6. Using Address switches set the address of the module to one of the available keypad
address slots, see page 4.
7. Re-apply power to the control panel and select the engineer’s programming mode.
8. Select the “Confirm Devices” option within the “Engineer Utils” menu and confirm that the
module is being “seen” as a remote keypad on the system.
9. If the relay on the iProx is utilized, it is controlled by the relevant remote keypad output.
Select the “Keypad Outputs” option within the “System Outputs” menu and program it to
the required type, e.g. “Door Strike”.
10. If required learn any new tags then exit the engineer’s mode.
11. Check that the iProx and proximity tags operate correctly.
Learning Premier Elite Proximity Tags
If the system is already using Premier proximity tags then the existing tags will work as normal
when presented to the iProx module. For full details on learning proximity tags refer to the control
panel installation manual.

panel.
4. Connect 26bit Wiegand reader to the iProx as shown above.
5. Connect the optional devices such the door strike, RTE button and speaker.
6. Ensure that Options switch 1 is set to OFF (Internal Prox. Disabled) and switches 2, 3 and
4 are set as required, see page 4.
7. Using the Address switches, set the address of the module to one of the available remote
keypad address slots, see page 4.
8. Re-apply power to the control panel and select the engineer’s programming mode.
9. Select the “Confirm Devices” option within the “Engineer Utils” menu and confirm that the
module is being “seen” as a remote keypad on the system.
10. If the relay on the iProx is utilized, it is controlled by the relevant keypad output. Select the
“Keypad Outputs” option within the “System Outputs” menu and program it to the required
type, e.g. “Door Strike”.
11. Learn any new tags (see below) then exit the engineer’s mode.
12. Check that the iProx and proximity tags operate correctly.

Learning 3rd Party Tags on the Premier Elite 24/48/88/168/640
When using 3rd party tags via a Wiegand reader, the tag or card is encoded with a unique 6 digit
code. This code is learnt onto the control panel and is stored separately from the user code, this
allows for users to have a tag and access code with different codes. To learn 3rd party tags
proceed as follows:
1. Select the “Setup Users” menu on the control panel.
2. Enter the user number that you want to assign the tag or card.
3. Press [Yes] and program the user code and options as required, when the remote keypad
displays “Add TAG to User?”. Press [2] to select Import TAG.
4. The remote keypad will now display “IMPORTING TAG Present TAG Now”.
5. Present the tag or card to the Wiegand reader, you will hear an acceptance tone when the
tag is imported successfully.
6. Repeat steps 2 - 5 for other tags or cardsNetwork Mode Operation
When installed in the Network mode, the operation of the iProx is as follows:
•When a valid proximity tag is presented to the module or via the Wiegand reader you will hear
a beep from the internal sounder (if the Internal Sounder jumper is set to ON). The status LED
will momentarily change from green to yellow indicating a valid tag read. If the alarm system
is in a disarmed state the control panel will start the exit sequence. The exit tone will be
generated if the “Sounder Enabled” switch 3 is ON. The user should leave premises as
normal. If the alarm system is armed or in entry mode the system will disarm on presentation
of a valid tag.
•When an invalid proximity tag is presented to the module or via the Wiegand reader you will
hear a beep from the internal sounder (if the Internal Sounder jumper is set to ON). The
status LED will momentarily change from green to yellow, but the status of the alarm is not
affected.
•The Door Strike relay is controlled by the control panel and will activate when the relevant
remote keypad output is active.
•If the RTE input is activated the Door Strike relay is activated for 5 seconds.
To restrict operation of the iProx to door strike please see the control panel installation manual.

SA840-A20 Keypad Operation
When the Premier iProx is installed with an SA840-A20 keypad the operation of the alarm system is
as follows:
•If a valid user code is entered followed by the [P] key during the exit sequence the remaining
exit time is truncated and the system arms immediately.
•If a valid user code is entered followed by the [P] key whilst the system is armed, the entry
timer is started. The user must enter the premises via the designated entry route and disarm
the system using the standard Premier remote keypad.
•If a valid user code is entered followed by the [P] key whilst the system is disarmed, the
system status is unaffected.
•The Door Strike relay is controlled by the control panel and will activate when the relevant
remote keypad output is active.
•If the RTE input is activated the Door Strike relay is activated for 5 seconds.
