SDC E5 Series Access Control System - Manual (Page 6)

Software Setup
The first task is to load Reader #01 into the system and verify that proper communications
between the reader and the PC can be established. Follow the procedure documented in the
SET READER PARAMETERS section (Page 2) of the E5 Series – Software Reference Guide.
Next, test the reader to PC network communications link by synchronizing the reader’s time and
date. Follow the steps documented in the UPDATE READER TIME section (Top of Page 5) of
the Software Reference Guide. If the communications link has been established correctly, a
message window will indicate a successful result.
When you have verified the communications with Reader #01, load and test any remaining
readers into the system.
Note:
If you are having problems communicating with a reader(s), make sure that the wiring is correct
and that you have assigned each reader its own unique Terminal Address number. Also, verify
that the reader was loaded with the correct Com Port number.
Establishing Communications with the Reader(s):
Insert the installation cd provided with the E5P reader.
