1.2 Safety precautions
Read the instructions
Before working with the AMC2 device, read these instructions carefully. Make sure you have
understood all information described in this document.
Warning!
Risk of electric shock
External power supplies must be installed and put into service by qualified personnel.
Ensure compliance with the relevant regulations.
Ground the controller.
Disconnect both AC and battery power supply before working on the controller.
Warning!
Risk of fire
Installation of the AMC2 device must comply with any local fire, health, and safety
regulations. A secured door that may be part of an escape route from an area must be
installed with:
Install a fail-safe lock (A), so that the door will be released if power fails. Ideally, use a
magnetic lock.
Install a normally-closed break glass or a manual pull (B) in the lock supply wiring, so that in
an emergency the fail-safe lock can be immediately powered down.
Warning!
Risk of explosion of Lithium battery
The battery can explode if it is replaced incorrectly.
Replace only with the same type as recommended by the manufacturer.
Dispose used batteries according to the battery manufacturer’s instructions.
Notice!
Risk of damage to equipment
Protect the hardware from electrostatic discharge by observing ESD instructions before
unpacking of touching connectors of electronics.
Always switch off power of the AMC2 device before modifying the installation.
Do not connect or disconnect plug connectors, data cables, or screw connectors while power
is on.

3 Introduction
3.1 Description
The AMC2-16ION board provides inputs and outputs to control doors and other components
independent of access control system.
Figure3.1: The IO-Controller AMC2-16ION
The AMC2-4R4 standalone board (hereafter also referred as AMC2 or controller) are deployed
via a dedicated OPC-Server. Though similar in appearance to the AMC2-4W and AMC2-4R4
controllers, the AMC2-4R4 has no reader interfaces, but is intended instead for the efficient
monitoring and control of many devices, especially entrances, simultaneously. It is not an
extension board like the AMC2-16IOE, AMC2-8IOE, and AMC2-16IE but possesses its own CPU
and host interfaces.
The AMC2-4R4 has 16 analog inputs and 16 relay outputs. Via its inputs the module can
determine the status (e.g. locked, closed or open) of entrances, windows or other devices,
and its output signals can lock/unlock doors, or trigger alarms with external monitoring
systems in the case of an intrusion.
If the 8 and the 8 outputs are insufficient for your needs, then up to three extensions
(AMC2-16IOE , AMC2-8IOE, or AMC2-16IE) can be connected, thus providing the AMC2-4R4
with a maximum of 64 inputs and 64 outputs for configuration.

3 Lithium battery for buffering of static RAM and real time clock (RTC). The battery life
is estimated at 10 years, nevertheless an error message is generated if the voltage
sinks below a preset minimum level.
NOTICE: In order to avoid an error message caused by an earlier voltage drop we
suggest to replace the battery every 8 years. Spare part: VARTA CR 2032 PCB.

3.4 System Overview
The AMC2-4R4 is deployed as an independent controller between the management host
system and various peripheral devices. By default, a management host system is connected via
Ethernet. A management host connection using RS-485 or RS-232 is also possible.
