5.2 Installing Readers and Locks
All the features described below can be programmed and tested, where necessary, at the front panel.
Details of how to do this are given in 15267 PAC Portico 2200/1200 Series Door Controllers User Guide.
However, if the door controller is going to be administered from a PC, these features must be
programmed at the PC as well. It is advisable to use the front panel to test the installation of the door
controller, readers and locks and then, once communications are established, initialize the door controller
and program the features at the PC.
How to fully commission a PC-based system is described in the documentation supplied with the
administration software.
Use the most appropriate reader for the location bearing in mind, internal or external, vandal resistance,
decor, panel mounting, etc.
See the documentation supplied with each reader for specific details for fitting that type of reader.
5.2.1 General Information
Readers should be fitted at a convenient height, usually at about the height of a door handle, on the
unhinged side of the door.
Readers should be fitted at least 3.3ft/1m apart to prevent any interaction between them. Be particularly
careful with this distance when placing readers on each side of the same door.
Consider future service requirements such as access to cables, etc.
