1530 Old Oakland Road, Suite 10001858-001 Rev. A San Jose, CA 95112 USA (800) 260-5265 (408) 451-2520 FAX (408) 441-0309Page 1 of 4 P-500: Sierra Reader The P-500 Sierra Reader The P-500 Sierra Reader is intended for mounting on a flat surface or a standard U.S. single gang electrical box. It can be mounted on metal or non-metal surfaces. The P-500’s electronics are housed in a black, weatherproof, shock resistant package. This package is mounted to the installation surface. An attractive, snap-on, black or white front cover hides the electronics package and installation mounting hardware providing an extra level of security. The P-500 can be used with virtually any manufacturer’s access panel because it produces an industry standard Wiegand output. The reader can be configured to work with access panels using either single or dual LED control lines. It is able to read the following Keri Systems’ Wiegand cards. • PSC-1 Standard Light Proximity Cards • PSM-2 Multi Technology Cards • PSK-3 Proximity Key Tags When a card or tag is read, the P-500 immediately responds with a beep and an LED blink. The access panel then handles subsequent LED and beeper responses. The P-500 also features built-in diagnostics: a start-up self test to ensure reader functionality and a data line test to ensure reader/access panel communication.

However the wire gauge to use should be determined by the current draw requirements of the reader, the length of the cable run, and the voltage being applied to the reader. If the reader is to be operated at +5 VDC, +5 VDC must be available at the reader (long cable runs have a voltage drop across the length of the run due to the resistance in the cable). To ensure +5 VDC is available at the reader a larger gauge of wire (having less resistance) or a separate power supply at the reader may be required. (2) Read Range is measured in a clean RF and electrical environment using a Keri Systems Standard Light Proximity Card presented parallel to the reader surface. The Read Range will be less for a Key Tag and a Multi Technology Card. Quick Start Guide P-500 1530 Old Oakland Road, Suite 10001858-001 Rev.

One large hole (7/8") accommodates the beeper and the reader cable. Two small holes (for a #6 screw) are for mounting the electronics package on the mullion or doorframe.

The only configuration the P-500 requires is to set the reader for single or dual LED control line operation (explained later in this document). The P-500 Reader can be connected to virtually any access panel that meets Wiegand interface standards. All connections are made through the reader's cable.

The access panel controls the actions of the P-500’s LED and beeper. Power The P-500 is powered by the access panel, so the reader is powered on when the access panel is powered on. Read Range To verify the P-500’s read range, hold a Keri Systems Wiegand card or tag parallel to the reader, about 1 foot away and slowly bring the Card/Tag in toward the reader. Note the distance when the reader recognizes the card (the reader beeps and the LED flashes). The reader's range will be up to 7 inches (if mounted off a metal surface) or up to 3 inches (if mounted on a metal surface) depending upon the installation conditions, the material on which the reader is mounted, and whether it is a card or a tag being read. Due to the physical size difference between cards and tags, cards provide approximately 50% greater read range than tags. Refer to the Troubleshooting the Reader Installation section if the reader is not functioning properly. Switching Between Single or Dual LED Control Line Modes The P-500 can work with control panels configured to drive either Wiegand single or dual LED control line devices. The reader uses a “control” card to switch between single and dual line LED control modes. The Control Line card must be ordered separately from the supplier. The default setting for the P-500 reader is for dual LED control line operation. To toggle between modes, simply present the LED Mode control card to the reader. The reader will beep and the LED will flash indicating the control card was recognized and the mode has been changed, but no data is sent to the access panel.

GENERAL INFORMATION Requirement:Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Certification under FCC Rule Part 15 (Technical Requirements: 15.205, 15.209) Applicant:Keri Systems Inc. 130 Old Oakland Road, Suite 100 San Jose, CA 95112 Product ID:FCC ID: N42KERI1000 II. DESCRIPTION OF EQUIPMENT UNDER TEST (EUT) The Keri Systems P500 is a tag reader employing a low level, 125 kHz RF magnetic field to activate a microchip embedded in a small plastic tag.. The activated chip transmits a unique pre-coded identification (ID) number back to the receiver. The receiver decodes and converts the ID number to a predetermined output format (RS-232, WIEGAND, ETC.). The formatted code is sent to a host terminal through an external cable. The EUT is DC powered only and exempt from the AC line conducted requirements of 15.207. III. TEST LOCATION All emissions tests were performed at: Compliance Consulting Services 1366 Bordeaux Avenue Sunnyvale, CA 94086 CCS is a NVLAP accredited test facility with 3 open air test sites (OATS). Three meter and 10 meter site attenuation data and test site descriptions are on file with the FCC. Radiated emissions testing was performed on a large open grassy area located between two of the sites. The open area extends for more than 200 meters. IV. TEST PROCEDURES AND RESULTS Radiated Emissions (15.209 intentional radiator): Radiated emissions measurements were performed at several intermediate distances less than 300 m. Data points so obtained were plotted on semilog graph paper, and a best-fit straight line was extended to the 300 m mark of the graph, and the extrapolated emissions level was compared to the limit for each frequency. Data was taken up to 30 MHz. Keri Systems Inc. page 8 of 9 pages FCC ID: N42KERI1000 For each test location: 1. The EUT was placed on a plastic cart approximately 90 cm above ground level. An RF tag was placed in the field of the EUT to verify proper EUT operation. The tag was left in place for the duration of the test. Refer to Figure 1 for test set-up. 2. The EUT was rotated, raised, and lowered in order to maximize received emissions. Maximum received emissions were achieved when the EUT loop antenna was in the same plane and at the same height as the receiving active loop antenna. 3. The reading for each frequency of emission was recorded and plotted on semilog graph paper. Figure 1. Radiated Emissions Test Set-up loop antenna EUT 20m 10m 6m 3m 1m DC Power supply spectrum analyzer AC Test Results PASS. See attached spread sheet and extrapolated data graph. Conducted Emissions: NOT APPLICABLE - DC OPERATION ONLY Radiated Emissions (15.109 unintentional radiator): The KERI 1000 was placed on a turntable at 3m distance from the measuring antenna on an open field test site. Radiated emissions were performed according to ANSI C63.4. Test results indicated EUT meets the emission requirements for a class A digital device. A class A verification report has been prepared and forwarded to Keri Systems under separate cover.
