Model 940 Reader
Installation Manual
Mounting the reader
The reader comes with a backplate suitable for mounting directly
onto standard U.S. electrical gang boxes. The reader may also be
mounted directly onto a hollow wall.
Important:
•
Readers should not be mounted within three feet of a
computer terminal. Some terminals radiate electrical
noise that may reduce the effective maximum read range.
•
An installer-supplied gasket should be used to form a
weather-resistant seal between the mounting surface and
the inside of the reader for outdoor installations. The
gasket should be located on the inside surface of the
reader's plastic backplate. For outdoor installations,
where the reader is mounted in direct exposure to
weather, a bead of silicone caulking should be applied
between the reader and the wall to prevent water from
entering the back of the reader.
Off-the-wall tamper feature: The readers are equipped with an
off-the-wall tamper feature.

To activate this feature, remove the key on the backplate

Note:
In order for this feature to work properly, the reader mounting
surface must be flush with the backplate.
