General
The BC-16 is a Magnetic Stripe Card-only Reader for use with Bewator Entro and Entro Lite Door Controllers. The BC-16 can be mounted externally or internally, if mounted externally the use of the SH-2 Rain Hood
is advised. All other information regarding installation and programming can be found in the manual supplied with the relevant Door Controller.
The BC-16 is supplied complete with 5 meters of cable. When extending this cable, always use a screened multicore cable i.e. BELDEN 9540 10 core screen. If only one Reader is required at the door, then the BC-16 can be connected directly to the Door Controller. In this configuration the Reader can be connected up to a maximum of 50 meters from the Door Controller.
If two Readers are required at the door or distances of up to 100 meters from the Reader to the Door Controller are needed, then a Bewator Multibox must be used.
