Etapele de asamblare
- Pregătiți spațiul de lucru: Ensure a clean, well-lit workspace with appropriate soldering tools.
- Solder Components: Carefully solder all components onto the printed circuit board according to the silk screen markings and the kit's detailed instructions. Pay close attention to component orientation (e.g., diodes, ICs, electrolytic capacitors). Atenţie: Incorrect soldering can prevent the device from functioning. Double-check all solder joints for bridges or cold joints.
- Conectați bobina: The proximity coil can be mounted directly on the board or remotely, allowing for flexible installation options. Ensure a secure connection to the designated terminals.
- Alimentare electrică: Connect a stable 12V DC power supply to the designated input terminals. Observe correct polarity.

Adding and Removing Tags
The MK179 features an easy method for programming and de-programming proximity tags. Refer to the detailed instructions provided with your kit for the specific button presses and LED indicators for adding or removing tags. Generally, this involves:
- Pentru a adăuga un Tag: Activate the programming mode (e.g., by pressing a button for a specific duration), then present the new tag to the reader coil. The device will confirm successful addition (e.g., via an LED flash).
- To Remove a Tag: Activate the removal mode, then present the tag to be removed. The device will confirm removal.
Funcționare normală
Dată tags are programmed, simply present a valid tag to the reader coil. The device will recognize the tag and activate its output (e.g., a relay closure) for a pre-set duration, allowing it to control connected devices like door locks or alarms.
Întreţinere
The Velleman MK179 Proximity Card Reader Kit is designed for reliable operation with minimal maintenance.
- curatenie: Keep the circuit board and reader coil free from dust and debris. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning. Avoid using liquids or abrasive cleaners.
- Conditii de mediu: Ensure the device is operated within its specified environmental conditions (temperature, humidity) to prevent damage.
- Alimentare electrică: Use only a stable and correctly rated 12V DC power supply. Fluctuations or incorrect voltagPoate deteriora unitatea.
Depanare
If you encounter issues with your Velleman MK179, consider the following troubleshooting steps:
- Dispozitivul nu pornește:
- Check power supply connections and ensure correct voltage (12V DC) and polarity.
- Inspect for any short circuits or incorrect component placement on the assembled board.
- Tags Not Being Read:
- Asigurați tag is presented within the effective reading range of the coil.
- Verificați că tags have been correctly programmed into the device.
- Check the coil connection to the main board.
- Comportament incorect la ieșire:
- Confirm the relay connections to the external device are correct.
- Review the programming steps for adding/removing tags to ensure no errors occurred.
- Probleme de asamblare:
- If the device does not function after assembly, carefully inspect all solder joints for quality. A common issue is a solder bridge between traces or a "cold" solder joint that doesn't make proper electrical contact.
- Verify that all components are in their correct positions and orientations.
