3.5 ABC Voltage Selection

The output voltage of the BNx000 must be carried through the Accessory Board Connector (P2) when using the BN x000 power supply with Beacon Accessory Modules that connect to P2 using ABC cables. The Buss Select Fuse (See Figure 3.5.1.1) determines if the voltage is available on the Accessory Board Connector (P2).

Figure 3.5.1.1

3.5.1 Adjusting the Buss Select Fuse

The Buss Select Fuse is factory set for proper operation. The Fuse setting options are:

SETTING/POSITION DESCRIPTION

B1 – DOWN

This is the required setting when connecting a Beacon Accessory Module.

B2 - UP Removes voltage from the Accessory Board Connector (P2).

Because older BNx000 boards (PCB#: 38-118 REV A02 or earlier) do not have a Buss Select Fuse, always check the position of this fuse setting when installing a new BNx000 Board (PCB # 38-118 REV A03A or later) into an existing system.

3.6 Output Terminals

The BNx000 has three sets of output terminals:

 The DC1 output provides constant power, regardless of the state of the FAI input  The DC2 output provides power which DROPS upon activation of the FAI input  The DC3 output provides power ONLY upon activation of the FAI input

All three sets of output terminals on the BNx000 provide the same output voltage, 12VDC or 24VDC, as selected by the voltage select switch (S1). See Section 5.1 for more information.

APPENDIX B, PAGE 1

About the Accessory Board Connector

The AlarmSaf Accessory Board Connector (ABC) allows plug-in system expansion using compatible AlarmSaf accessory boards. The ABC is capable of carrying both primary and secondary voltages (if applicable), DC common, fault status, and fire alarm interface status. Products can be daisy-chained together, maintaining voltage, fault, FAI, and DC common continuity throughout the chain.

NOTE: There are 6-pin and 8-pin versions of the ABC. The 6-pin version carries ONLY a single voltage while the 8-pin version can carry two independent voltages for dual voltage systems.

CAUTION: The ABC-01 and ABC-02 cables are used on the older Beacon Power supply boards (PCB#: 38-118 REV A02 or earlier) that have a 6-pin ABC connector. cables on newer Beacon Power supply boards (PCB # 38-118 REV A03A or later) that have an 8-pin ABC connector or damage to the system could occur.

APPENDIX B, PAGE 2

About the Accessory Board Connector (continued)

Voltage Busses (B1 and B2)

The voltage busses (B1 and B2) are carried on pins 5-8 of the ABC. B1 is the primary voltage, and should typically be the higher of the two voltages in a dual voltage system. The B1 and B2 (if used) voltages are distributed through the accessory boards connected to the ABC. See the documentation for the particular accessory boards being used for details on how to utilize the B1 and/or B2 voltages. Note that 6-pin ABC connectors can carry only the B1 voltage, while 8pin ABC connectors can carry both B1 and B2. In order for the B2 voltage to be present, a second power supply must be included in the system (AC to DC or DC to DC).

CAUTION: If more than one power supply is connected to any of the voltage busses, the system will not operate properly and damage to the system could occur. Verify that only one power supply is connected to each voltage buss before powering the system.

Fault Status Buss

The fault status buss carries the DC Fault status between accessory boards and power supplies. Any product with fault detection and/or reporting capability can report a fault to or from the ABC chain. Unless otherwise noted in a product’s documentation, AC faults are not transmitted through the fault status buss.

Some accessory boards have a jumper to split the fault buss. This allows the separation of faults between two power supplies in some dual voltage systems. If the buss is not split, any fault on either power supply or any accessory board will show on both power supplies. If the buss is split, faults on each side of the jumper will go to their respective power supply only, allowing easier troubleshooting fault conditions, but requiring monitoring of the fault outputs of both power supplies. Note that only one split should be used in the fault status buss. See the documentation for the accessory boards in the system to determine which, if any, have a fault buss split jumper.

NOTE: Not all accessory boards have fault detection or reporting capability; however the fault status is still carried through these accessory boards to maintain continuity through the chain.

Fire Alarm Interface (FAI) Status Buss

The FAI status buss carries FAI activation signals on systems utilizing a Fire Alarm Interface. This buss is used to control outputs on compatible accessory boards. See the documentation for the accessory boards in the system to determine FAI capability.

Some accessory boards have a jumper to split the FAI buss, allowing independent control of groups of accessory boards and power supplies with multiple FAI input sources. If the buss is not split, all power supplies and accessory boards with FAI capability will change state upon activation of input source will only activate accessory boards or power supplies up to the split. Products after the split require their own FAI input source.

Note: Not all accessory boards have FAI capability; however the FAI status is still carried through these accessory boards to maintain continuity through the chain.

ABC See “Accessory Board Connector” Accessory Board Connector Connector present on some AlarmSaf power supplies and accessory boards, allowing

plug-in expansion of the system

Accessory Board An AlarmSaf product for use with AlarmSaf power supplies containing an ABC connector.

These boards allow plug-in expansion of the functionality of the system. Examples of accessory boards include, but are not limited to, voltage distribution (simple and controlled), secondary DC-DC power supplies, and NAC Circuit expanders.

AC-DC Converter A DC power supply whose voltage input is either direct from the AC line or though a

step-down AC transformer

Buss 1 (B1) The primary DC voltage in a system. Typically the higher of the two voltages in dual

voltage systems Buss 2 (B2) The secondary DC voltage in a system. Only dual voltage systems use this voltage. Class 2 Power Limited A voltage output or wiring which conforms to NEC Article 725. Controlled Distribution Voltage distribution providing on/off control for the outputs. Control can be from FAI, an

access control panel, card reader, or other device. The MB8(F) and CMB8(F) accessory

boards, and the APD8(F) are examples of controlled distribution. DC-DC Converter A DC power supply whose voltage input comes from another DC source. DC-DC

converters allow multi-voltage system backup with a single battery set. FAI See “Fire Alarm Interface” Fire Alarm Interface Input present on some AlarmSaf products allowing control of output(s) in the system.

Typically used for dropping power to mag locks on egress doors during a fire alarm

condition, but can also be used for other control functions, such as resetting smoke

detectors Negative Trip An input which is activated upon the switching of a DC Common to its terminals. The DC

Common may either be from an external (common grounded) source, or may be

provided as one of the terminals of the input, depending on the product. This input type

is used with a dry contact or open collector input. Positive Trip An input which is activated upon the switching of a positive DC voltage to its terminals.

The positive voltage may either be from an external (common grounded) source, or may

be provided as one of the terminals of the input, depending on the product. This input

type is used with a dry contact or voltage input. Power Limited A voltage output or wiring which conforms to NEC Article 725. PTC A resettable overcurrent protection device, similar to a fuse or circuit breaker. Rack Mount A product which has an enclosure that allows mounting in a standard 19 inch equipment

rack Simple Distribution Voltage distribution without any control function for the distributed outputs. Power is

always available to the outputs. The PD8(F) accessory board is an example of simple

distribution. Voltage Distribution Splitting a bulk power supply output into multiple, current limited outputs to prevent a

single circuit failure from talking down an entire system. The multiple terminal outputs

also simplify wiring by providing a pair of terminals for each circuit, rather than wiring

several circuits to a single pair of terminals.

APD8(F) Installation Instructions 10/9/2007, 12:19:29 PM

3.3 Control Power and Lock Power Input Connections

The APD8(F) has two separate power inputs - a control power input, and a lock power input. Using two separate power inputs allows total separation of lock and control power sources. Typically, this is not required, and jumpers J1 and J2 should remain in. See Section 5.1 for more information on configuring the APD8(F) for using separate power inputs.

Note - If J1 and J2 are out, BOTH power inputs must be wired to a power source. If J1 and J2 are in place, either the control input or the power input may be used. Note - If J1 and/or J2 are missing, the control power and lock power inputs can be connected together with wire jumpers if isolated power sources are not required.

3.3.1 Control Power Input If J1 and J2 are removed, this input provides power to the internal relays and related circuitry of the APD8(F). The Control Power common is tied to the zone input common connections (unless the zone input is set as an insolated input). If J1 and J2 are removed, the Control Power input or Zone Inputs have NO connection to the Lock Power input or the Zone Outputs.

3.3.2 Lock Power Input If J1 and J2 are removed, this input provides power to the zone outputs of the APD8(F). The Lock Power common is tied to the zone output common connections. If J1 and J2 are removed, the Lock Power input or Zone Outputs have NO connection to the Control Power input or Zone Inputs.

Note - All wiring should be installed in accordance with (NEC760) NFPA70, NFPA72, and all local code requirements. Power limited wiring requires that power limited and non-power limited wiring

remain physically separated. All power limited circuits must remain at least one quarter inch (¼”)

away from any non-power limited circuit wiring. All power limited circuit wiring must enter and exit the cabinet through different knockouts than non-power limited wiring.

4.2 Wiring

4.2.1 Wire Routing All wiring must be installed in accordance with NFPA70, NFPA72, and all local code requirements.

Power Limited wiring requires that power limited and non-power limited wiring remain physically separated. Any power limited circuit entering the enclosure must remain at least one quarter inch

(¼”) away from any non-power limited circuit wiring. Any power limited circuit wiring must enter

and exit the enclosure through different knockouts than non-power limited circuit wiring. Wiring within the enclosure should be routed around the perimeter of the cabinet. It should not be routed across the circuit boards.

4.2.2 Control and Lock Power Inputs Locate the power input terminal block (TB7) and remove the terminal block from the header. Connect one or both power inputs as appropriate for the settings of J1 and J2 (See Sections 3.3 and 5.1). Power input wiring should be sized appropriately for the total current draw from the outputs of the APD8(F). See Section 3.3 for details. Replace the terminal block on the header.

4.2.3 Zone Input Wiring Locate the terminal block for the zone input to be wired and remove the terminal block from the header. Connect the input in the manner appropriate for the type of input signal being applied. See section 3.4 and Appendix A for more information. Replace the terminal block on the header.

4.2.4 Zone Output Wiring Locate the terminal block for the zone output to be wired and remove the terminal block from the header. Connect the output in the manner appropriate for the application. See section 3.5 and Appendix B for more information. Zone Output wiring should be sized appropriately for the total current draw from the output. Replace the terminal block on the header.

4.2.5 FACP Input Locate the FACP Input terminal block (TB8) and remove the terminal block from the header. Connect the proper input in the manner appropriate for the type of input signal being applied. See Section 3.6 and Appendix C for more information. Replace the terminal block on the header.

4.2.6 FACP AUX Output Locate the FACP AUX Output terminal block (TB7) and remove the terminal block from the header. Connect the FACP AUX Output as needed. See Section 3.7, Appendix C, and Appendix D for more information. Replace the terminal block on the header.

Section 5 Operating the APD8(F)

5.1 Power Separation Jumper Settings

The APD8(F) gives the installer the ability to electrically isolate the Control power from the Zone Output power. This can be helpful in installations where noise-sensitive devices would be affected by lock noise.

To isolate the LOCK power input from the CTRL power input, jumpers J1 and J2 must BOTH be removed.

5.2 Zone Input Configuration Switch Settings

Each zone of the APD8(F) has a set of DIP switches associated with its input. These switches configure the input for use with a variety of signal types, however three basic configurations will cover a majority of applications. See Appendix A for information on configuring additional input types.

Note - Only switches 1 through 6 are used for each input - switches 7 & 8 are unused.

Note - The factory configuration of these switches (Negative Trip Mode) should work for most

applications.

5.2.1 Negative Trip Mode Negative Trip Mode will cover applications including Dry Contact (NO or NC) and Open Collector (including Casi-Rusco). To set the APD8(F) for Negative Trip Mode, Switches 1, 2, and 3 should be ON (Closed), and all other switches should be OFF (Open).

5.2.2 Positive Trip Mode Positive Trip Mode covers applications where a positive voltage is applied to the input for activation. To set the APD8(F) for Positive Trip Mode, Switches 4, 5, and 6 should be ON (Closed), and all other switches should be OFF (Open).

5.2.3 External 12VDC Trip (Isolated) External Trip Mode covers applications with a completely isolated 12V source as an activation source. The source may or may not be common-grounded with the rest of the system. To set the APD8(F) for External Trip Mode, Switches 2 and 5 should be ON (Closed), and all other switches should be OFF (Open).

y NO Dry Contact Positive - This configuration will activate the zone’s output relay when the normally open contact

connected to the input closes. The NO contact is in series with the positive leg of the internal zone output relay coil.

y NO Dry Contact Negative - This configuration operates the same as the NO Dry Contact Positive configuration,

except that the NO contact is in series with the ground side of the internal zone output relay coil. This is the most common configuration.

y NC Dry Contact Positive - This configuration holds the zone output relay active. The zone output relay deactivates

when the NC contact opens. The NC contact is in series with the positive leg of the internal zone output relay coil.

y NC Dry Contact Negative - This configuration operates the same as the NC Dry Contact Positive configuration,

except that the NC contact is in series with the ground side of the internal zone output relay coil.

y Non-Isolated Negative Trip - The positive source for the zone output relay coil is provided internally. A DC

common connected to the input’s ‘-’ terminal will activate the zone output relay. No connection is required to the input’s ‘+’ terminal. The DC common used to activate the zone must be common grounded with the control power input’s DC common.

y Non-Isolated Positive Trip - The DC common for the zone output relay coil is provided internally. A positive 12VDC

voltage connected to the input’s ‘+’ terminal will activate the zone output relay. No connection is required to the input’s ‘-’ terminal. The positive voltage used to activate the zone must be common grounded with the control power input’s DC common. Do not use a 24V source to activate the input or damage to the zone output relay will occur.

y Isolated Voltage Trip - Connection of a 12VDC source across the input’s ‘+’ and ‘-’ terminals will activate the zone

output relay. When used in this mode, the zone input is completely isolated from the control power input and the lock power input. Do not use a 24V source to activate the input or damage to the zone output relay will occur.

y Open Collector Input - This configuration is identical to the “NO Dry Contact Negative configuration, except that

the dry contact is replaced with the open collector output.

Appendix B Using The Zone Outputs

The APD8(F)’s outputs can be used in a variety of configurations, allowing flexibility and compatability with virtually any application. Each output can individually be set up for disconnect on FAI, no action on FAI, or Dry Contact Output (no action on FAI) by setting the Zone Output Configuration jumpers for each zone (See Section 5.3). In addition to the jumper settings, each output may be wired in a variety of configurations to suit the required application.

y Dry Contact Output - ‘X’ - When the zone output configuration jumper is set in the ‘X’ position,

the zone output is disconnected from all voltage sources and acts as a dry contact output. The C, NC, and NO terminals act as a normal relay which is controlled by the zone’s input terminals. The terminal labelled ‘COM’ is connected internally to the DC common of the Lock Power Input. When used as a dry contact output, the rating of the output is 3A.

Note - When configured as a dry contact output, the zone output protection (fuse / PTC) is not in the output circuit. Note - The FACP input has no effect on a dry contact output.

y Voltage Output - Constant - ‘C’ - When the zone output configuration jumper is set in the ‘C’

position, the zone output will supply the voltage applied to the Lock Power Input. Internally, the Lock Input voltage is connected to the zone output relay’s C terminal. Depending on the state of the zone output relay, the voltage is output via the NC or NO terminal as follows:

y NO - Voltage is output on this terminal when the zone output relay is activated y C - Voltage is always present on this terminal, regardless of the state of the zone output

relay

y NC - Voltage is output on this terminal when the zone output relay is NOT active y COM - This terminal is the DC common (‘-’)for the zone output. It is connected internally

to the Lock Input ‘-’ terminal.

Note - The FACP input has no effect on an output whose zone output configuration jumper is set for ‘C’.

y Voltage Output - Disconnect - ‘D’ - When the zone output configuration jumper is set in the ‘D’

position, the zone output will function exactly the same as when it is set for ‘C’, with the exception that power will be removed from the NO, C, and NC terminals when a valid input is received at the FACP input.

Appendix C Using The FACP Input and FACP AUX Output Terminals

The APD8(F) has two FACP inputs which can be used to drop power to selected outputs when activated. One of the FACP inputs is for connection to a voltage source trip, while the other is for connection to a NO contact trip or open collector trip. See Section 3.6 for more information. The FACP voltage input incorporates an on-board blocking diode for connection to a polarity-reversing source.

The FACP AUX relay output follows the FACP input and can be used to activate additional APD8(F) FACP inputs, to latch the FACP input on, or for other functions. See Section 3.7 and Appendix D for more information.

Activation of the FACP’s output causes the APD8(F)’s FACP voltage input to be activated. This causes the APD8(F)’s FACP AUX relay to activate, which provides a closure across the APD8(F)’s FACP dry contact input, holding the APD8(F) in FACP

mode. Opening the reset contact will unlatch the FACP mode as long as the FACP’s output is deactivated.

FAI trip options, the APD8(F) can be slaved to a Beacon Power Supply’s FAI action.

Any acceptable method of FAI connection can be used on the Beacon power supply. Consult the Beacon Power Supply’s installation manual for acceptable

connection methods.

Activating the FAI terminals of the Beacon power supply causes the Beacon’s DC3 output to activate, which in turn activates the APD8(F)’s FACP voltage input.

The APD8(F)’s FACP AUX terminals may be used to daisychain to the next APD8(F), if used.

Zone 2 is connected to release a doorstrike when an egress PIR sees a valid target. Zone 1 provides constant power to the egress PIR through the ‘C’ terminal. The Zone Input is set for NC Dry Contact Negative (See Appendix A) and the Zone Output Configuration jumper is set for ‘C’,

since fire override is not required for a failsafe doorstrike.

Output 7 is used to control a doorstrike powered from an external power source on command by the keypad connected to Zone Input 7 and powered by Zone Output 8. The Zone Output Configuration jumper is set for ‘X’, for a dry contact output.

In this application, FAI latch release is provided via Zone Input 8. Configuring the Fire Override in this manner is preferred in installations where the reset switch is located far away from the APD8(F) board.

This configuration also allows any type of input source to reset the FAI latch, including, NC contact, NO contact, open collector, and voltage source.

The zone input should be configured along with the zone output for the type of input being used (See Appendix A).

Activating the FACP input of the top APD8(F) transfers its FACP AUX output. These contacts then activate the FACP dry contact input of the bottom APD8(F).

Any valid FACP Input activation method can be used on the top APD8(F). See Appendix C for more information.

If there are more than two APD8(F) boards which need to activate on FAI, the FACP AUX output of the second APD8(F) board would be connected to the next APD8(F)’s FACP dry contact input. This can be repeated for as many APD8(F) boards as necessary.

A little known application for the APD8(F) is for powering and controlling AC devices. This application shows an APD8(F) controlling two AC strikes in an apartment complex. Zone 1’s input is configured to accept a NC contact, while Zone 2’s input is configured for a NO contact. Note the different output wiring for each application.

If the strikes are not failsafe, the FACP input may be used with a zone output configuration jumper setting of ‘D’.

Also note that the APD8(F) has an internal rectifier and regulator for it’s own relay power, eliminating the need for a separate DC power source for powering the APD8(F).
