Assumptions

This document assumes the following:

  • The user is proficient in the use of basic hand and power tools.
  • The user has a basic understanding of the host machines being modified.
  • The user understands that CCI takes no responsibility to any damage that may occur to equipment during installation procedure.
  • The user has full access to equipment and facilities where FasCard equipment is to be installed.
  • The install location has a full time internet connection with a router or modem with enough available Ethernet ports to service the number of SAP's being installed
  • The install location as a 120vac outlet for every SAP being installed within 15 feet of the internet connection.
Warning
This procedure assumes that all required FasCard applications including ACH forms, Account application and equipment survey forms have been completed and turned into CCI.  Failure to complete the configuration procedure will prevent the FasCard equipment from operating properly.  Contact CCI to ensure that this step has been completed prior to installing product. 

Instructions

  • Check packing slips and confirm that all equipment ordered has been received.
    1. If any items are missing or incorrect contact your reseller.
    • Survey facility for an appropriate SAP installation location
  • The SAP should be located in the center of the area in which the FasCard readers are to be located.  The wireless range of the devices is approximately 90 feet, properly placing a SAP can cover 180 foot diameter area.
  • The SAP can be either ceiling mounted or wall mounted using the included mounting tabs.

  • The SAP comes with a 100' Cat5 Ethernet cable, this cable will connect the SAP to the locations internet connection.  Confirm that 100' will be sufficient to reach the mounting site to the internet connection. 

    • The path in which the Cat5 cable is to be run should be free of hazards that may sever or damage the cable, avoiding

    a FasCard Satellite (SAT).

    Tools (not included)

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

      1. The SAT should be located in the center of all FasCard associated readers. The wireless range of the readers is approximately 90 feet. The SATs range is approximately 180 feet in diameter.  

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

      3. The SAT comes with a 100ft ethernet cable. This cable will connect the SAP to the locations' Internet connection. 
        IMPORTANT: The ethernet cable should be no longer than 100ft. If longer than 100ft, there could be latency, or bandwidth reduction preventing a clear internet connection.

      4. 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

    or

        1. , and neon lighting

    is also recommended
  • If installing multiple SAP's, when possible choose mounting sites where all SAP's are in range of all FasCard readers.  This will provide redundancy to the readers in the event that an SAP goes offline.
    • Mount the SAP

        1. . 

      2. 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 in the site you have deemed best, based on the recommendations above. For more information see FasCard Satellite Mounting Guide.

      1. The SAP has multiple mounting

    options, follow the Fascard Satellite Access Point Install / Mounting Guide for detailsConnect the C-0181 100'

      1. tabs on the bottom, use standard screws with wall anchors, if needed.

    2. Connect the 100ft Cat5 cable to Port 1/

    POE

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

    internet

    1. 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.

    2. Connect the provided C-0177 15' Cat5 cable to the customer supplied

    internet device and

    1. Internet device (e.g. router or modem) and the other end into the "Data In" port of the C-5605 PoE adapter.

    tip Connect the 100' home run

    This might be a router or a 'Modem', this device must provide DHCP service.  Although most routers and modems today do, you may need to contact a local networking professional to confirm

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