Introduction
Both the PAC 571 and PAC 572 desktop readers use OneProx technology to allow PAC and KeyPAC tokens
and cards to be read by a PC running PAC administration software or iPAC web interface. If required, an
external reader can be wired in to the screw terminals of the desktop reader when the base cover is removed
(see Page 4).
The PAC 572 comes with a non-isolated RS-485 interface and line driver for connection to a PAC 512
access controller. The line driver is plugged in to the RS-232 port of the PAC 512. Other PAC 512s can be
connected to the first PAC 512 via RS-485 terminals to provide a direct channel (see Page 4). For
applications that require an isolated RS-485 interface, the PAC 572 can be wired into an isolated RS-485
hub.
Notes
1. The +5V output is derived from the USB's power line and is provided for reference. No more than
50mA should be drawn from this or the USB's power limit will come into operation and the computer
will shut down the USB port. This may require a reboot of the PC before the reader will operate
again.
2. External readers require their own power supply and must be powered up before the USB
connection.
3. Connecting to a client PC requires Version 3.1 or higher of the administration software.
Installing the Desktop Reader Software
1. Before connecting the desktop reader to the PC for the first time, insert the Desktop Reader CD.
If installing the desktop reader for use with the iPAC web interface, the iPACSetup.vbs program file will
be run to register the AxUSBAdminKit.ocx file into c:\windows\system32 folder. If the program is not
run automatically, select Start > Run and select iPACSetup.vbs on the CD.
2. Plug the desktop reader in to a spare USB port and the Found New Hardware Wizard window is
displayed.
3. Select the Install from a list or specific location (Advanced) radio button and select the Next button.
