Prerequisites

Create a Video reader/Video intercom reader in the Control Center prior to installing and provisioning.

Installation

You can install the Video Reader Pro/Video Intercom Reader Pro on a narrow surface using the mullion mount or on a single gang box using the standard mount.

To install on the mullion mount:

  1. Use the provided screws (A) to attach the mounting plate (B) to the wall.

  2. Place the cradle bracket (C) on the mounting plate, angle as desired, then secure it with the provided screws (D).

  3. Strip and connect the wires if necessary, then provision the device.

  4. Snap in the reader (E), then secure with the security set screw (F).

To install on the standard mount:

  1. Install a recessed single gang box into the wall.

  2. Use the provided screws (A) to attach the mounting plate (B) to the wall.

  3. Place the cradle bracket (C) on the mounting plate, angle as desired, then secure it with the provided screws (D).

  4. Strip and connect the wires, then provision the device.

  5. Snap in the reader (E), then secure it with the security set screw.

Wiring the Video Reader Pro/Video Intercom Reader Pro

  1. Using the provided weatherproof coupling, connect the RJ-45 jack to an Ethernet cable or PoE injector

    1. Note: We recommend using a backup battery on your PoE switch or PoE injector in case of power outages. Access control devices like the Video Reader Pro need to be continuously powered to provide access to your building. Not using a backup battery could result in life safety concerns. 

  2. (Optional) Use the Blue/White (NO) and Orange/White (COM) stripe wires to connect to a third-party device like a REX or sounder.

  3. (Optional) If connecting to a legacy access control system, connect the Green (WD0) and White (WD1) wires to an input on the legacy panel.

Note: *Relay not rated for locking hardware. To power locking hardware, use an Openpath Smart Hub or third-party access control panel.
