how to install GV-R1352 Card Reader

• Plan the installation location: Choose a secure, accessible outdoor mounting point with clear card presentation and unobstructed wiring pathways to the nearby access control panel.
• Mount the reader and seal the enclosure: Secure the GV-R1352 to a sturdy mounting surface using appropriate hardware, then verify the IP66 gasket is properly seated to maintain weatherproof integrity.
• Run cabling for Wiegand or RS-485: Route the data lines from the reader to the access control panel, using shielded cable where recommended and keeping power and data runs separate to minimize interference.
• Connect power and panel interface: Provide the reader with its required power source and connect the Wiegand and/or RS-485 signals to the corresponding terminals on the access control panel, following the panel’s wiring guidelines.
• Test, configure, and validate: Power up the system, present test cards, and confirm successful reads. Configure the panel for card formats, reader timeouts, anti-passback settings, and any panel-specific security rules to ensure smooth operation.
