ATTENTION: This equipment contains components that can be damaged by
electrostac discharge. Ensure both you and the equipment are earthed before
beginning any servicing.
The Gallagher T15 Reader is designed to be mounted on any solid at surface. However installaon on
metal surfaces, parcularly those with a large surface area will reduce read range. The extent to which
the range is reduced will depend upon the type of metal surface.
The recommended mounng height for the reader is 1.1 m (3.6 ) from the oor level to the centre of
the reader device. However this may vary in some countries and you should check local regulaons for
variaons to this height.
1. Use the reader base as a guide to drill all three holes. Drill the 13 mm (1/2 inch) diameter centre
hole (this is the centre hole for which the building cable will exit the mounng surface) and the
two xing holes.
2. Run the building cabling out through the centre hole and through the reader base.
3. Secure the base to the mounng surface using the two xing screws provided. It is important the
base of the reader is ush with and ght against the mounng surface. Three screw locaons
have been provided. Gallagher recommend using the outer screw locaons.
Note: It is strongly recommended that you use the screws provided. If an alternave screw is
used, the head must be no larger nor deeper than that of the screw provided.
Note: Ensure the centre hole allows the cable to run freely out through the mounng surface, so
that the reader facia can clip into the base.
