Maximal Series Overview:
Maximal Access Power/Controllers distribute and switch power to access control systems and accessories. They convert a
115VAC 60Hz input into sixteen (16) independently controlled 12VDC or 24VDC fuse protected outputs. These Fail-Safe/
Fail-Secure power outputs may be converted to dry form “C” contacts. The outputs are activated by an open collector sink
or normally open (NO) dry trigger input from an Access Control System, Keypad, Push Button, REX PIR, etc. Units will
route power to a variety of access control hardware devices including: Mag Locks, Electric Strikes, Magnetic Door Holders,
etc. The FACP Interface enables Emergency Egress, Alarm Monitoring, or may be used to trigger other auxiliary devices.
The fire alarm disconnect feature is individually selectable for any or all of the sixteen (16) outputs. All interconnecting
equipment must be UL Listed.

upon a fire alarm input trigger to the ACM8 boards.
10. Stand-by Battery Connections (Figs. 3-7, pgs. 9-13):
For Access Control applications batteries are optional. If batteries are not used, a loss of AC will result in the loss of
output voltage. Batteries must be lead acid or gel type. Connect one (1) 12VDC battery to the terminals marked
[+ BAT -] for 12VDC operation (Fig. 3a, pg. 9). Use two (2) 12VDC batteries wired in series for 24VDC operation.
11. Battery and AC Supervision outputs (Figs. 3-4, pgs. 9-10):
It is required to connect supervisory trouble reporting devices to outputs marked [AC Fail, BAT FAIL] supervisory
relay outputs marked [NC, C, NO] to appropriate visual notification devices. Use 22 AWG to 18 AWG for
AC Fail and Low/No Battery reporting.
12. Installation of tamper switch (Not Included) (Figs. 3b-4a, pgs. 9-10):
Mount UL Listed tamper switch (Sentrol model 3012 or equivalent) at the top of the enclosure. Slide the tamper
switch bracket onto the edge of the enclosure approximately 2” from the right side (Figs. 3b and 4a, pgs. 9-10).
Connect tamper switch wiring to the Access Control Panel input or the appropriate UL Listed reporting device.
To activate alarm signal open the door of the enclosure.
Maintenance:
Unit should be tested at least once a year for the proper operation as follows:
FACP Supervision: To ensure proper connection and operation of the Fire Alarm disconnect hookup please follow
the appropriate procedure below:
Normally Open Input: Placing a short between terminals marked [T] and [+ INP] will trigger the Fire Alarm
Disconnect. Remove the short to reset.
Normally Closed Input: Removing the wire from terminal marked [INP -- ] will trigger the Fire Alarm Disconnect.
Replace the wire to terminal marked [INP -- ] to reset.
FACP Signal Circuit Input: It is necessary to trigger the Fire Alarm System.
In all of the above scenarios the green TRG LED of the ACM8s will illuminate. All outputs selected for Fire Alarm
Disconnect will activate releasing locking devices.
Note: All outputs [OUT 1 - OUT 8] must be in a normal (de-energized) condition prior to testing. When the unit is
configured for Normally Open (Fig. 10, pg. 14) or Normally Closed (Fig. 12, pg. 14) latching operation it is
necessary to reset the Fire Alarm Disconnect by activating the Normally Closed reset switch.
Output Voltage Test: Under normal load conditions the DC output voltage should be checked for proper voltage level
(Power Supply Board Stand-by Battery Specifications, pg. 7).
Battery Test: Under normal load conditions check that the battery is fully charged, check specified voltage at the battery
terminals and at the board terminals marked [+ BAT -] to ensure that there is no break in the battery connection wires.
Note: AL600ULXB and AL1012ULXB Power Supply Board maximum charge current is 0.7 amp.

NEC Power-Limited Wiring Requirements for Maximal3:
Power-limited and non power-limited circuit wiring must remain separated in the cabinet. All power-limited circuit wiring
must remain at least 0.25” away from any non power-limited circuit wiring. Furthermore, all power-limited circuit wiring
and non power-limited circuit wiring must enter and exit the cabinet through different conduits. One such example of this
is shown below. Your specific application may require different conduit knockouts to be used. Any conduit knockouts may
be used. For power- limited applications use of conduit is optional. All field wiring connections must be made employing
suitable gauge CM or FPL jacketed wire (or equivalent substitute).
Note: Refer to wire handling drawing below for the proper way to install the CM or FPL jacketed wire (Fig. 5a).

NEC Power-Limited Wiring Requirements for Maximal5:
Power-limited and non power-limited circuit wiring must remain separated in the cabinet. All power-limited circuit wiring
must remain at least 0.25” away from any non power-limited circuit wiring. Furthermore, all power-limited circuit wiring
and non power-limited circuit wiring must enter and exit the cabinet through different conduits. One such example of this
is shown below. Your specific application may require different conduit knockouts to be used. Any conduit knockouts may
be used. For power- limited applications use of conduit is optional. All field wiring connections must be made employing
suitable gauge CM or FPL jacketed wire (or equivalent substitute).
Note: Refer to wire handling drawing below for the proper way to install the CM or FPL jacketed wire (Fig. 6a).
