Abstract: An access control reader includes a housing incorporating a base having a main wall designed to be secured to a support and a front part mounted on the base; a device detects opening of the housing. The reader is characterized in that the base and the front part include complementary guide components shaped so as to guide the front part in a tilting movement relative to the base when the housing is opened, from a closed configuration in which the front part is secured and folded down onto the base into an open configuration in which the front part is spaced apart from the base and is inclined relative to the main wall at a predefined angle which is not zero. The detection device is mounted on the front part in order to detect the tilting movement thereof.

Abstract: An access control reader includes a housing with a base having a main wall for securing to a support and at least one front part mounted on the base. Each front part includes a front wall opposite the main wall of the base in a closed configuration of the housing. The access control reader further includes an electronic board incorporating at least one controller, a memory and a main access-control device, the controller driving the main access-control device by implementing a first drive algorithm loaded in the memory. The housing includes a component for securing a complementary access-control module and component for passing a connection cable between the module and a connector mounted on the electronic board. The electronic board memory is loaded with a second drive algorithm for driving the module such that the controller drives the module once the connection cable has been connected to the connector.
