Freedom Bridges should only be installed in dry, non-condensing
environments. The ambient temperature of the environment should
range between -40°C and 50°C.
Freedom Encryption Bridges should only be mounted to non-conductive
surfaces. Incorrect mounting may short-circuit the electronics, which will
cause it to malfunction.
DC power, reader, input contact, and output device wires should
be between 16-28 AWG. They should also be stripped 5.5mm to
sufciently t the terminal blocks and ensure that they do not come in
contact with each other.
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
For each of the following steps, be sure to reference the wiring
diagram on page 2 for additional details:
1. Connect a Wiegand Reader to the Wiegand Reader Input on the
Freedom Bridge.
A. If the reader has a shield wire, connect the shield wire
to the 0v terminal on the Wiegand Reader Input. If an
extension cable is used between the reader and the
Freedom Bridge, connect the reader’s shield wire to the
cable’s shield, then connect the cable’s shield to the 0v
terminal on the Wiegand Reader Input.
B. Any unused wires on the reader must be evenly snipped
and have their tips insulated using electrical tape or
equivalent. The shield wire on the reader must also be
completely insulated.
2. If you have any supervised input contacts, wire them to the Digital
Contact Inputs using Method 1 or Method 2.
3. If you have any non-supervised input contacts, wire them to the
Digital Contact Inputs.
4. If you have a relay output contact, wire it to the Relay Output.
5. Supply power to the Freedom Bridge using either or both of the
following methods:
A. A 2.25 – 5.25 W Power over Ethernet (PoE) port on an
Ethernet switch connected to the Freedom Bridge using a
Cat5e or Cat6 cable.
B. 12 – 16 Vdc & 350 mA (300 mA external & 50 mA
internal) DC power connected directly to the TB1 terminal
on the Freedom Bridge.
6. If you are not using PoE to power your Freedom Bridge, connect
a Cat5e or Cat6 cable from any port on an Ethernet switch to the
RJ- 45 connector on the Freedom Bridge. Note: Ethernet only
supports a maximum cable length of 100 m.
7. To congure and add the Freedom Bridge to a MESH/Freedom
Server, refer to the MESH/Freedom Solution Guide manual.
