Ensure you have calculated the correct power supply amp rating if you are connecting the iEvo board and other controllers/locking mechanisms to the same supply, The iEvo unit must be used with an EN 60950-1 or an equivalent IEC standard complaint PSU. This is to establish adequate safety testing of the PSU to ensure that there is sufficient isolation provided from the mains. iEvo is designed to shut down as a protection precaution
is detected. iEvo will reboot straight away after shutdown. The use of a correct power supply will prevent this from taking place.
Warning: When installing the IEvo control box, follow ESD Safety Procedures. Ground yourself to prevent any damage to the electronic components.
Ensure you have selected the correct reader for internal or external use. The external reader is supplied with a built in thermostat controlled heating system. An internal reader, placed externally will not perform to it’s required capabilities.
