In standby mode, the LED is blue. When a card is read, the LED flashes green and the
beeper beeps once.
GV-DFR1352 comes with external control wires for Green LED, Red LED and Beeper. You
can connect these control wires to a GV-AS400 / 410 / 810 to allow the status of LED and
Beeper to be defined by the GV-AS400 / 410 / 810. For details on how to configure the
settings, refer to
7. Enabling External Control of the Beeper and LED
later in this installation
guide.
5. Connecting GV-DFR1352 to GV-AS Controller
GV-DFR1352 can be connected to GV-AS100 / 110 / 120 / 210 / 400 / 410 / 810. To see how
many readers can be connected to a GV-AS Controller, refer to

Extended Reader
. This dialog box appears.
2. In the GV-Reader/CR420/GF1921/GF1922 section, select the
RS485
checkbox in front of
the ID number and type the
Serial Number
on the rear panel of the reader. The ID
number will be assigned to the reader.

Function
drop-down list. Click
Submit
.
