RCI 9320 BLACK – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the difference between the RCI 9320 and the 9321 proximity reader?
Both are the same Easy Read Slimline prox reader; the split is where the controller lives. The 9320 is a self-contained unit, reader and controller in one housing at the door. The 9321 comes as two separate pieces, reader outside and controller inside, which is what you want on an exterior opening where you do not want the door-release electronics reachable from the unsecured side. Silent access validation is a 9320-only feature; both support audible and visual validation.
2) How close does the card have to be to the RCI 9320 reader to work?
Read range is up to 2-3/8 inches (60mm) with the 932-10CP card and 1-9/16 inches (40mm) with the 932-10KP fob. Fobs read shorter than cards, so if you are mounting behind a glass stop or any non-metallic trim, size the gap against the 1-9/16 inch fob figure rather than the card figure.
3) What power supply do I need for an RCI 9320 proximity reader?
12VDC, sized for 1000mA maximum draw at the reader. That current figure is the reader/controller only, so add the holding current of whatever you are releasing (strike, mag lock, electric latch retraction) on top before you pick the supply. Verify the supply matches before you land any wiring.
4) Can the RCI 9320 reader be set up fail-safe for a mag lock and fail-secure for a strike?
Fail-safe and fail-secure are field-selectable on the unit, so the same part covers both. Set fail-safe where the lock has to drop open on power loss (typical mag lock egress opening) and fail-secure where the door must stay locked when power drops (typical electric strike on a stairwell or exterior door). No different model number to order for one or the other.
5) How many cards can the RCI 9320 hold, and do I need a laptop or software to program it?
Up to 10,000 users, and no separate programmer or PC is required; enrollment is done at the unit. That capacity puts it in range for a multi-tenant building or a whole school wing on a single door, and credentials can be denied without having to physically get the card or fob back from the user, which is the part that matters when a tenant moves out or an employee is terminated.
6) Can I tie a request-to-exit device into the RCI 9320 standalone reader?
There is an input trigger for a request-to-exit device or any other open circuit dry contact, so an REX sensor, a push button, or the switch in an exit device can release the door through the reader without a separate control board.
7) Is the RCI 9320 prox reader OK to mount outdoors on an exterior door?
It is built weather resistant for exterior and demanding commercial locations. On the 9321 configuration the controller mounts separately on the secure side, which is the better arrangement outdoors because the release electronics are not sitting in the weather or exposed to attack at the reader.
8) Which credentials work with the RCI 9320/9321 reader?
The 932-10CP proximity card and the 932-10KP key fob are the credentials the reader's published read ranges are specified with. Cards give the longer range of the two, so on an opening where the reader has to be set back a little, spec cards rather than fobs for your users.
9) Is the RCI 9320 a single door system or can it control several doors?
Single door. It is a standalone access control unit, one reader governing one opening with the controller either onboard (9320) or in a separate enclosure (9321). For a building where you need multiple doors on shared credentials and a common audit trail, a networked panel-based system is the right direction instead of putting a standalone at each opening.
10) Does the RCI 9320 reader come in white, or do I have to order a different part?
Black and white snap-on covers are both included in the box, so one part number matches either dark bronze storefront or a painted white frame. No separate color SKU to specify on the order.
