Welcome to iLOQ Support

Key reader / Hot Spot can be used for two different purposes:

• As a programming hot spot only. Independently connected to the main bus, the device is used for updating keys remotely, and for downloading programming tasks to the Programmer, for programming offline locks.
• As a key reader. Connected to the door module READER RS-485 bus, the device controls the electric lock, and the key is also updated when the door is opened. In this configuration, the device cannot be used for downloading programming tasks to iLOQ Programmer, for programming offline locks.

The N103.1 Key reader is depicted in the figure below:

The key features are:

• The cover material is plastic

• This Key reader in meant for indoor use only.

• The key-way direction is contact wire downwards (for the Scandinavian oval cylinder market).

The N103.2 Key reader is depicted in the figure below:

The key features are:

• The cover material is plastic

• This Key reader in meant for indoor use only.

• The key-way direction is contact wire upwards (for the Europrofile cylinder market).

The N103.4 Key reader is depicted in the figure below:

The key features are:

• The cover material is stainless steel:

  • Vandal-proof
  • Hard-wearing

• This Key Reader is meant for outdoor use.

  If the Key reader is exposed to rain, use weather protection cover A10.84 that is available as an accessory.

RFID Reader is a device located in the vicinity of a door. RFID Reader is connected to the Door Module READER RS-485 bus; it has no other connections. RFID Reader is used to control an electric lock by an iLOQ key equipped with an iLOQ RFID tag.

If RFID Reader is equipped with a keypad, it can be used to provide access to the door with a code only.

When installing:

• If you place the readers closer than 10 cm from each other, or install the reader on a metal surface, the reading distance can be shorter.

• If you install two readers close to each other, we recommend installing a sheet metal plate between the readers.

• Do not install a reader to the vicinity of strong electromagnetic disturbance sources.

• Do not cut the cable shorter than 10 cm.

• You can leave the wires not mentioned in the connection instructions disconnected. However, these cables must not be in short cut with each other.

• If installed directly on a metal surface, the reading distance may be shortened. To avoid this, we recommend using installation plate A10.119 between the door and the reader.

The connections are:

• Red wire — DC+

• Black wire — DC-

• White wire — A

• Green wire — B

This is an RFID Reader with a keypad, MIFARE. The key equipped with a corresponding MIFARE Classic® tag is K10S.5.

Communication is not encrypted.

RFID Reader N104.1 is depicted in the figure below.

This is an RFID Reader with a keypad, MIFARE DESFire. The key equipped with a corresponding MIFARE DESFire® tag is K10S.6. This reader is capable of reading both types of tags/keys K10S.5 and K10S.6.

Air communication between the reader and the RFID is encrypted when using the corresponding encrypted tag, K10S.6. Also, the wire communication between the reader and the door module is encrypted.

RFID Reader N104.3 is depicted in the figure below.

This is an RFID Reader without a keypad, MIFARE DESFire. The key equipped with a corresponding MIFARE DESFire® tag is K10S.6. This reader is capable of reading both types of tags/keys K10S.5 and K10S.6.

Air communication between the reader and the RFID is encrypted when using the corresponding encrypted tag, K10S.6. Also, the wire communication between the reader and the door module is encrypted.

RFID Reader N104.4 is depicted in the figure below.

Each device connected to the main bus must have its own, unique bus address. Net Bridge only has one main bus, even if it is branched. Net Bridge automatically distributes bus addresses. If you have a device that has manual address dip switches, you can ignore them.

Terminate the last device on the bus or on the branch if the bus does not continue to the next device, by setting the TERMINATION dip to the ON position. If there are several branches on the bus, terminate the last device on each branch.
