About – The vandal proof reader is compatible with Switch2 and Net2 systems. The barrel-like construction of the reader means that it can be flush with the wall. This is ideal for use in vandal prone areas where malicious damage could be a problem. Black caps come standard with the reader and an end cap is used as a marker, making it easier for users know where to present their tokens.
We have added Genuine HID Technology to the majority of our Paxton readers, they can now read HID 125kHz Proximity tokens, when licensed with an activation card. If required these readers can still be enabled to have Wiegand output, via a separate activation card.
Installation – The reader is wired as displayed on the control unit label. The reader itself is inserted into a 20mm diameter hole in the wall or door frame. The cap is then mounted as a visual marker for users. The illustration below shows the different fitting options. The reader should not be mounted into metal.
Operation – A token is read by holding it within close range of the reader. Once a token has been read the control unit looks up the access permissions for that user. Access is then granted or denied as appropriate.
Replacement covers in a range of colours are available to Paxton registered installers free of charge.
