1 System Configuration
1.1. Notice about installing
This product a mass-produced product. It strictly follows to the
criteria of manufacture and inspection of China, U.S.A, and EU.
This file contains important information. It is better for you to read
it carefully prior to use. If you ignore it, the incorrect installation
may cause the unit damage. Although we could do our best to
offer you service, the neglect to the file could cause unwanted cost
for you.
1. Before installation, please make sure the power is cut off,
because it is very dangerous if the power is on. The
short-circuit of power cable may cause the core parts damage.
2. All exposed part of connection wire end can not be exceeded
5mm to prevent the bared wire accidental connection which
leads to machine break down. And also suggest using different
colour cable to connect.
3. In the place where the static is strong or in winter, please
connect the grounding firstly, in order to prevent the instant
mass static damage the machine.
4. Connect power supply with device in the last for the wiring
connection. If you find any unusual thing occur, please firstly
cut off the power, then go to examine. Keep in mind: wiring
operation under power on will lead to machine sudden damage;
we are not liable for damages and trouble due to such

operation.
5. After installation finish, when go to test the exit-door button,
please keep a personal in the outside, because sometimes the
accidental issue can bring on you are not able to go outside.
6. Our equipment offer an automatically function, please after the
installing finish. Run the auto-test function to confirm the installation
finish .
7. We recommend using above the 12V/3A direct-current supply
for access control device, electricity lock better to powered by
12VDC, and no more than 1.5 A electric current At this time,
the electric current of supply should be above1A than lock
power. If the parameter of lock power surpasses this scope,
please connect technical personnel. If the power had not met
above requests, it possibly causes to be unable normally to
drive the electricity lock, even damage the device.
8. Before device to be connected please read and always follow
"Quick connect Guide" closely. Because the wrong wiring will
cause the core block and sensor to burn out, insult in device to
break down, at this cause we are not liable for any damages
and trouble.
9. If the space between power adapters and device is too long,
please do not use the twisted-pair or other type ferrules for the
power wire. When the power wire is choused, you should
consider attenuation of voltage which has passed long distance
transfer.
10. Please use specialized RS485 cable and the RS232/485
converter with power to hookup the network, the bus structure
apply to connect with each device. When a long cable is used
to transfer signal, it is need to connect a matching resistance to

receiver, and its value is 120Ώ.
For other matters not covered in detail herein, please refer to the User
Manual, Software Instructions, and appendixes related to this
equipment.
1.2. Installation Environment

3 Installation
3.1. Installation Steps
1. Affix the paper template to the wall and drill holes within the
three marked circles on the paper template.
We recommend affixing the template about four (4) feet (1.2m)
above the ground, assuming the average height of your users is
5-6 feet tall(1.5m-1.85m).
2.Now affix the mounting plate on the wall by drilling three (3)
screws into the three (3) circles marked on the paper template.
3. After installing the back cover, ensure it will be stable, solid and
non-loosening.

3.2.1 Door sensor connection
The door sensor is used to detect the door open-close state ,
terminal can monitor if the door has been unauthorized open
through the door sensor, at this time it can output a alarm signal,
moreover, terminal can trigger prompt warning if the door is not
close tightly.
3.2.2 Exit-button connection
The exit-button is installed for in-door operation. When the switch
of the button is close, the door will open. The distance is
approximately 1400mm from ground to exit-button bottom. Make
sure that the exit-button position is to align correct, upright and the
connection is accurate and reliable. (Unused exposed end of
cable should be cut off, and use insulating tape to wrap it.)Pay
attention to electromagnetic disturbance. (For example: The light
switch, the computer and so on)

3.2.4 Door lock connection
The way of installing door lock depends on the type of lock and
local condition. Internal resistor which comes from long distance
transfer should be taken into consideration when selecting the
cable of electric power. The door lock should be installed reliable
and stable .Ensure the wiring is correct. For the strike lock and
electromagnetic lock, you should pay attention to positive and
negative terminal connection. The unused bare end of wire should
be cut off and use insulating tape to wrap it. The delay time of
strike lock is adjustable according to different conditions.
zWhen the Access Control System connected with Electric lock,
to prevent the self-inductance EMF to affect the access control
system, you need to parallel one FR107 diode (do not reverse the
polarity) . Please use the equipped diode in the package.
Select electric lock ：it is better to use strike lock for the two
–direction opening glass door (both open to inside or outside
direction ) ,for the single opening wood door in company internal ,
we recommend to use magnetic lock, the magnetic lock also be
called as electric magnetic lock,. The magnetic lock is more
reliable than the strike lock, but the strike lock is much safer than
the magnetic lock. In the small living community, it is better to use
strike lock and magnetic force lock. The electric control lock gives
out higher noise; the electric control lock is commonly used to
building communication. Now there is a soundless electric control
lock which is able to be applied. Please pay attention, the lock is
made of iron and easy rust, so you must beware of not exposing it

iFace Series Installation Guide

to water or harsh condition, there are some other electric locks
available, we don’t recommend you to use them.
Connect with electric lock
The Normal-Open lock is open when the power is on. The
Normal-Close lock is closed when power is on. The machine
supports both of the two kinds of locks at the same time. The way
of lock connection changes with the type of lock. For NO lock, the
NO terminal will be used; for NC lock, the NC terminal will be
used.
This access control machine is powered by DC12V and work
current 400mA. If the lock work electric power is DC12V and the
work current is less than 1000mA, the fingerprint machine and
lock are able to be powered by one adapter together, please
refer to table 1, 2.
In the following three cases, we recommend that fingerprint
machine and lock are powered separately.
1)The working voltage of the lock is DC12V, but the current
difference of the fingerprint machine and the lock doesn’t exceed
1A.
2) The lock voltage is not DC12V.
3) The distance between lock and fingerprint machine is too
far.
