Device overview

2. Device overview

Your product is set up with a finger scanner. This finger scanner reads special characteristics of your finger lines and uses them for identification. Each of your fingers is unique and differs from the fingers of other persons. Relays ekey® TOCAnet provides 3 relays for controlling external switchgear. The relays are equipped with a change-over contact, which is freely usable, the maximum switching power is 250V~5A. Programming Programming and configuration of ekey® TOCAnet is done by using the software “ekey® TOCAnet Admin”, which comes on CD-ROM with each along with the LAN/RS-485 converter.

Installation

3. Installation 3.1. Wall mounting of outside unit The ideal installation height is at approximately 135 cm / 52 inches (upper edge). At this height the fingerprint reader is ergonomically positioned for better reading of the finger surface as it is being swept. The unit can be mounted to a standard electrical outlet using the “in-wall mounting set” accessory. The mounting holes are designed to make the assemblage on a standard electrical outlet possible. Alternatively, you can work with pins or wooden screws or similar screws directly on the wall. The outside unit (splash water resistant) has to be installed in a place, where it is safe from the impact of heavy rain or snowfall as well as from too strong an incident of solar radiation. 3.2. Wall fastening of inside unit Mount the “fitting plate”, which can be found at the backside of the inside unit. The “fitting plate” at the same time serves as fastener for the casing of the inside unit. Put up the inside unit onto the fitting plate. Inside unit can be opened by pushing up the lock clip with a flat screwdriver. The inside unit has to be installed in a way that it is safe from third party access. Security risk!

Note: Installation of inside unit shall be exclusively executed by qualified personnel!

Installation

3.3. Electrical connection The inside unit has to be supplied with electricity; its voltage is 9 VAC. Please use the “9VAC – in” connecting clamps and only use the power supply provided with your TOCAnet product. Inside and outside units have to be connected to the RS-485 bus using a bell wire or Cat 5/6 cable (see the connection scheme below). Minimum wire diameter required is 0.6 mm². For the power supply of the scanner unit, a wire diameter of 0,75mm² (gauge 21) is necessary. Each door opener has to be connected to a separate power supply! Do not use the ekey® adapter for powering any other electronic devices! The connection wire between outside and inside units is to be run separately from electronic house installations, as they send out signals in the lower voltage area, which can be irritated by other neighbouring live power cables. The cables are not protected against reversed polarity.

Note: It is strongly recommended to have the electrical connection done only by qualified personnel!

Operation

4. How to swipe a finger correctly over the sensor In order for the reader to properly scan and recognize a particular finger, the finger needs to be positioned and swept correctly over the sensor as outlined below: a. Locate the reader sensor between the 2 green illuminated arrows. b. Starting from the finger joint, place the finger flat over the sensor.

It is very important that the whole finger is placed flat over the sensor and not just the tip.

c. Apply little pressure and start sweeping the finger immediately all the way down. The bigger the identified finger surface, the higher is the probability that you are recognised again by the system.

Possible problem areas and solutions

5. Possible problem areas and their solutions Problem Reason Solution LED of external unit does not illuminate

Maybe the power connection (clamp 3,4) and the data connection (clamp 1,2) are interchanged

Connect power supply to clamp 3 and 4. Connect RS-485 bus to clamp 1 and 2.

Communication between PC-Software and terminals does not work.

1. IP address of converter is not concordant with the settings in ekey® TOCAnet Admin software

2. A firewall is active, which blocks the UDP-data transfer on port 21580, 21581 and 21589

1. Change IP-address 2. Open the described

ports in the firewall (for UDP communication).

LED of external unit is blinking green

Fingerprint sensor can not be activated. Maybe the sensor is defect.

Contact an authorized ekey® TOCAnet specialist dealer

After a positive fingerprint match the internal unit’s display shows message „En“ but the relay is not switching

Maybe the relay is defect Contact an authorized ekey® TOCAnet specialist dealer

„Ready“ LED at LAN/RS-485 converter is illuminating red.

Data lines Rx and Tx are connected in the wrong order to the converter.

Interchange data lines

LED of external unit is illuminating orange although the software configuration in “ekey® TOCAnet Admin” is done correctly

Data lines Rx and Tx are connected in the wrong order to the outside unit.
