Tools (not included)

  • Power drill
    • Wall anchors

    • Phillips Screwdriver

    • (Optional) Power Drill or Impact Driver

    • (Optional) Any additional mounting hardware at the discretion of the installer.

    Preparation

    1. Capture the E01 MAC Address (format will be 12 hexadecimal characters in length with colons between every two characters) and add the SAT to the location using the FasCard Admin Site. This can be done at any point in the process, or before/after.

      1. To be ready for the above, it is recommended to have immediate, available access to the FasCard Admin Site.

    NOTE: When adding a SAT to the location, ensure that the SAT is on the latest FasSat version available.

    1. Survey the location for an appropriate

    SAP

    1. SAT installation site. Note the following when looking for an install site: 

      1. The 

    SAP

      1. SAT should be located in the center of all FasCard associated readers. The wireless range of the readers is approximately 90 feet. The

    SAPs

      1. SATs range is approximately 180 feet in diameter.  

      2. The 

    SAP 

      1. SAT can either be ceiling mounted or wall mounted, using the included mounting tabs. 

      2. The 

    SAP 

      1. SAT comes with a

    100' Cat5 Ethernet The Cat5 Ethernet

      1. 100ft ethernet cable. This cable will connect the SAP to the locations' Internet connection. 

    Warning
    titleCable length notice

      1. IMPORTANT: The ethernet cable should be no longer than

    100'

      1. 100ft. If longer than

    100'

      1. 100ft, there could be latency, or bandwidth reduction preventing a clear internet connection.

      2. The path in which the Cat5 is to be ran through should be free of hazards that may damage or interfere with the cable.

        1. Avoid high frequency devices such as lighting ballasts, microwaves, cordless phones, and neon lighting. 

      3. If multiple SAPs are being installed, choose equal ranges between all the SAPs and readers, so they can provide redundancy and can cover the entire group of FasCard equipment. 

    2. Mount the 

    SAP 

    1. SAP in the site you have deemed best, based on the recommendations above.

      

    1.  For more information see FasCard Satellite Mounting Guide.

      1. The SAP has multiple mounting tabs on the bottom, use standard screws with wall anchors, if needed.

    2. Connect the

    C-0181 100'

    1. 100ft Cat5 cable to Port 1/PoE on the SAP.

    2. Run the opposite end of the C-0181 Cat5 cable from the SAP to the local Internet connection in the building.

      1. Use cable ties to secure cabling to solid structures along the cable pathway, stay clear of any objects that may cause harm to the cable.

    3. Connect the provided C-0177 15' Cat5 cable to the customer supplied Internet device (e.g. router or modem) and the other end into the "Data In" port of the C-5605 PoE adapter.

    Tiptitle

    Internet provider requirements

    The Internet Service Provider (ISP) for the location must issue a DHCP IP address. Static IP addressing will not work on the SAP. 

    1. Connect the C-0181 100' Ethernet cable from the SAP into the "Data & Power Out" port of the C-5605 PoE adapter.

    noteThe SAP

    titleSatellite power notice

    The FasCard SAP (Mikrotik 951G-2HnD) device can accept power through its power jack or through the first Ethernet port:

    • The DC power jack accepts 8-30V DC.
      • The DC power accepts a 5.5mm outside diameter, 2mm inside diameter, female, pin positive plug.
    • The first Ethernet port accepts passive Power over Ethernet (PoE) 8-30V DC.
      • The 951G-2HnD SAP does not support PoE+ or PoE++ which typically supplies 48V DC.
    • Attempting to power a 951G-2HnD SAP with anything over its maximum rated acceptable input voltage of 30V DC may harm the device.
    • Under maximum load, the power consumption of this device is 7W.

    1. The SAT will boot up and try and establish a connection to the Internet and the FasCard servers, this process can take between 2 to 5 minutes

    . 
  • Install the FasCard readers on to the host equipment. 
    1. Follow the instructions as provided for the appropriateFasCard Reader Installation - Archived installation guide for the type of equipment you are installing.
    • Address the FasCard reader to its pre-assigned address on the Admin site. See How to Program Address on a FasCard Reader for details on addressing the readers

    1. . 

  • Test the machine. 
    1. Be sure to test the machine with coins and cards to confirm successful operation.
