ZKTeco F17 - IP Access Controller Installation Guide

Equipment Installation

1. Post the mounting template on the wall. Drill the holes according to the marks on the template (holes for screws and wiring).
   
   (Instruction for the Mounting Paper
   Before the device is fastened, please stick the paper to the place where you want to install it, then make holes and layca bles according to the mounting paper.)
2. Remove the screws on the bottom of device.
   
3. Take away the back plate.
   
4. Fix the plastic pad and the back plate on the wall according to the mounting paper.
   
5. Tighten the screws on the bottom, fix the device to the back plate.
   

Structure and Function

Access Control System Function

1. If a registered user verified, the device will export the signal to unlock the door.
2. Door sensor will detect the on-off state If the door is unexpected opened or improperly closed, the alarm signal (digital value) will be triggered.
3. If only the device being illegally removed, the device will export alarm signal.
4. External card reader is supported.
5. External exit button is supported, it is convenient to open the door inside.
6. External door bell is supported.
7. Supports RS485 TCP/IP, modes to connect with PC. One PC can manage multiple devices.

Lock Connection

1. Share power with the lock:
   
   Device share power with the lock:
   1. U LOCK =12V, I-I LOCK >1A......
   2. The lock is near to the device.
   : 'I': device output current, ' U LOCK ': lock voltage, ' I LOCK ': lock current
2. Does not share power with the lock:
   
   Device does not share power with the lock:
   1. LOCK =12V I - I LOCK ≤1A;
   2. LOCK ≠12V;
   3. The lock is far apart from the device.

1. The system supports NO LOCK and NC LOCK. For example the NO LOCK (normally open at power on) is connected with 'NO' and 'COM' terminals, and the NC LOCK is connected with 'NC' and 'COM' terminals.
2. When the Electrical Lock is connected to the Access Control System, you need to parallel one FR107 diode (equipped in the package) to prevent the self-inductance EMF affect the system, do not reverse the polarities.

Other Parts Connection

Power Connection

Input DC 12V, 500mA (50mA standby)
Positive is connected with '+12V', negative is connected with 'GND' (do not reverse the polarities).

Wiegand Output

The device supports standard Wiegand 26 output, so you can connect it with most of the access control devices by now.

Wiegand Input

The device has the function of Wiegand signal input. It s upports to connect with an independent card reader. They are installed each side of the door, to control the lock and access together.

1. Please keep the distance between the device and Access Control or Card Reader less than 90 meters(Please use Wiegand signal extender in long distance or interference environment).
2. To keep the stability of Wiegand signal, connect the device and the Access Control or Card Reader in same 'GND' in any case.

Other Functions

1. Manual Reset:
   If the device does not work properly because of misoperation or other abnormality, you can use 'Reset' function to restart it.
   Operation: Remove the black rubber cap, then stick the Reset button hole with a sharp tool (the tip diameter less than 2mm).
   
2. Tamper Function:
   In device installation, user need to put a magnet between the device and the back plate. If the device being illegally moved, and the magnet being away from the device, it will trigger the alarm.
   

Communication

There are two modes that the PC software communicate and exchange information with the device: RS485 and TCP/IP, and supports remote control.

1. RS485 Mode:
   Please use specified RS485 wire, RS485 active converter and bus-type wiring.
   Terminals definition please refer to the right table.

   Terminals	PC Serial Ports
   485+	RS485+
   485-	RS485-

2. TCP/IP Mode:
   Two ways for TCP/IP connection.
   1. Crossover cable: The device and PC connected directly.
      
   2. Straight cable: The device and PC connected to LAN/WAN through switch/Lanswitch.
      

Cautions

1. Power cable is connected after all the other wiring. If the device is working abnormally, please shut down the power first, then make the necessary check. Kindly reminds you that any hot-plugging may damage the device, and it is not included in the warranty.
2. We recommend the DC A/12V power supply. Please contact our technical staff for details.
3. Please read carefully the terminal description and wiring by rule strictly. Any damage caused by improper operations will be out of the range of our guarantee.
4. Keep the exposed part of wire less than 5mm, to avoid unexpected connection.
5. Please connect the 'GND' before all the other wiring especially under the environment with much electrostatic.
6. Do not change the cable type because of long distance between the power and the device.
7. Please use specified RS485 wire, RS485 active converter and bus-type wiring. If the communication wire is longer than 100 meters, it is needed to parallel a terminal resistance on the last device of RS485 bus, and the value is about 120 ohm.
