Notes:
• These operating instructions only describe how to
install the iris reader to the wall. This iris reader will not
operate properly if you do not complete the setup.
Refer to p. 28.
• The UL Listed card reader when employed must be
suitable for use with the selected UL Listed Access
Control Panels. Refer to the UL Listed Access Control
Panels Installation Instructions for compatibility with the
UL Listed card readers and compatibility with the BM-
ET200.
• The use of an external recorder and master clock has
not been evaluated by UL. 
						

							Power cable (Mandatory)

Description about the Connection Example
• When the power supply is shut down, an alarm signal is supplied from the alarm output 1 (power status) to alarm devices.
• When the front cover is removed from an iris reader or the iris reader is removed from the wall, an alarm signal is sent from
the alarm output 2 (tamper detection) to alarm devices.
• When recognition is not successfully completed, an alarm signal is sent from the recognition result output 2 (REJECT) to a
digital disk recorder. Then, the digital disk recorder automatically records the images output from the option camera.

Note: Use 18 gauge wire or better when connecting to the earth ground.
Description about Tamper Detection
This iris reader has the tamper detection function to protect the data and setting values stored in the reader. If the iris camera
is left in the tamper detection status for a specified period, the iris data stored in the iris reader will be deleted.
• The tamper detection status can be canceled with Setup Switch 8. Set this switch to ON when the front cover is removed
for servicing. (Refer to p. 21.)
• After servicing, set this switch to OFF, and close the front cover. The iris reader becomes the operation status.
Notes:
• If the front door is not closed after Setup Switch 8 is set to OFF for a specified period, the iris data stored in the iris
reader will be deleted.
• In case the stored data is deleted by the tamper detection, backup of stored data is available. Refer to p. 48 or 58.
Notification about the Installation Site
This iris reader is limited to indoor use.
Near-infrared light (contained in sunlight, incandescent light and halogen light) is used for iris image capturing by the iris read-
er. If the iris reader is installed in a place which receives this light directly, it may cause invalid iris data enrollment/recognition,
as the iris reader cannot capture iris images properly.
Keep the iris reader away from the following. Otherwise, light may affect on the iris reader.
• Outdoor places
• Direct sunlight or light reflection
25 mm {1 in.} or less
Clamping tool 
						

							26
•Incandescent or halogen lighting
•Places where the iris reader or the users eyes are directly exposed to light
Notes:(A quantity of acceptable near-infrared ray is 500 µW/cm
2or less.)
•Places near the light reflection (from a mirror, etc.)
•Places where the amount of light is not appropriate for operation
Keep the iris reader away in the following, in addition to the above surroundings.
•Vibration (It may cause invalid iris image capturing and recognition. It may also cause other trouble or damage.)
•Places whose humidity is not between 30 % and 90 % and whose temperature is not between 0°C and +40°C {between
32°F and 104 °F}
If the iris reader is located in an area exceeding these ranges, it may cause damage or a malfunction.
•Noise (for example, places near air conditioners or ventilators)
•Electricity
When objects made of glass or acrylic, etc. are located between an iris reader and a user, enrollment or recognition
may fail due to the light refraction, light reflection, or sensor malfunction.
Installation Space and Recognition Range
Keep the Installation Space.
The installation space described in the following illustrations is required.
Note:The height of the iris reader, shown in the figure, is a recommendation. The center of the optical axis and upside/down-
side limit of the eye position will differ depending on the installation height.

							3. Detach the rear cover from the main unit by removing
the mounting screws.
4. Secure the rear cover to the wall or junction box built in
a wall with the locally procured screws, and fix the tam-
per detection lever on the wall.
Important:
•To work tamper detection properly, mount tamper
lever to the wall by screw.
•The tamper detection lever is crucial to function of
the tamper, and needs to be attached securely to
the wall for the tamper to work properly.
5. Attach the main unit to the rear cover.
(1) Hook the upper side of main unit on the rear cover.
(2) Push the lower side of main unit into the rear cover.
Important:
•Check if there is no gap between the iris reader and
rear cover.
•If the cables are lead out of the bottom side, coat
the cables with cable covers, etc.
28
Installation
Cautions:
•Mount the iris reader to the flat and firm wall. Besides,
secure the iris reader with the supplied mounting
screw, at the time of the mounting. Otherwise, it may
cause dropping, trouble or injury.
•Check if the wall has enough strength for mounting and
no dents. Otherwise, the tamper detection mode will be
activated.
Important:
•Do not bury this iris reader into the wall. Heat may not
be released fully, and that may cause malfunction.
•If necessary, use reinforcing screw holes.
•When the cables are lead out of the bottom side, cut off
the fixed portions before fixing the rear cover. (Refer to
p. 16.)
•Walls capacity is 49 N {5 kgf} or more.
•Required pull-out capacity of a single screw/bolt is 
196 N {20 kgf} or more.
•Before the following procedure, turn off the power sup-
ply to the iris reader.
•Refer to p. 23 for connection example.
1. Detach the front cover from the main unit by removing
the front cover fixing screw with the tamperproof screw
driver tool (supplied).
2. Detach the interface board by removing the interface
board screw. Then, remove the GND cable from the
main unit.

7. Fix the power cable to the iris reader with the supplied
clamping tool and clamping screw.
(Cut off the extra portion of clamping tool.)
8. Connect the DC 12 V or DC 24 V power cable to the iris
reader.
Important:
•Do not mistake + and –. The wrong cable connec-
tion may cause trouble.
•Do not connect an AC power-supply device. The
iris reader works 12 V DC/24 V DC only.
•Refer to p. 84 for details on recommended external
power-supply device.
•Do not supply the power to the iris reader until all
other connections are completed.

9. Connect the cable for the recognition result output and
trigger input terminals to the connector terminal.
Important:
•Connect the cable firmly. Otherwise, that may
cause loose connection or cable disconnection.
•Do not mistake signal terminals and GND terminals.
10. Connect the interface board to the iris reader.
Important:Wiegand and RS-485 interfaces are avail-
able in the network mode only. In the stand-alone
mode, these interfaces are unavailable.
(1) Insert the interface board into the connector firmly
until the connector clicks.
(2) Fix the interface board to the iris reader with the
interface board screw.
(3) Select the communication interface for card reader
and access control panel by performing the RS-
485/Wiegand switch setting of the interface board.
Refer to p. 22 for setting. Refer to Step 12 for how to
secure the GND cable of interface board.
11. If necessary, connect the cable for the alarm terminals,
cable for the Wiegand terminals, and cable for the RS-
485 terminals to the connector terminal. (Refer to p. 23
for connection example.)
