2.1	Architecture of Access Easy Controller 2.1
		The basic architecture of an AEC2.1 system can be divided into two main building blocks,
		namely the Power and the Function. The Power block provides the required power to all the
		modules and sustains the system in times of AC power failure. The electrical input sources
		vary according to individual electrical power standards in the country.
		The Function block can be divided into three different modules namely the Software, the
		Processor and the Interface module. These modules work together to define the system’s
		characteristics and behaviors. Interactions between the modules are carried out through
		standard RS232 and RS485 channels. Such architecture structure allows versatilities in
		system designing and building.

4 The CPU Board

This chapter provides a brief overview of the AEC2.1 CPU board. This chapter also describes the board layout and functions of various circuits. Some major components of the board are explained and information concerning jumper option is provided.

The AEC2.1 CPU board is X86 processor based Single Board Computer (SBC) with one or two 100Base-T Ethernet. The serial port (RS232), communicates with the 4-Reader and/or 8-IO boards.

The CPU board is designed to function as an embedded Web server and an AEC2.1 system.

Two communication ports are available on the CPU board. The first is an 100Base-T Ethernet port used by the Web server to communicate with the customer's database management computers. The Ethernet port terminates in an RJ-45 jack located on the CPU board. Standard category 5 cable is used to connect from the RJ-45 jack to a hub or wall outlet on the customer's network. Alternatively, a cross-over cable can be used to connect from the Ethernet jack on the CPU board directly to the Ethernet connector on the customer's computer.

The second communication port is a RS-232 port. This port is used to connect to an external modem to allow dial-in connection to the controller.

NOTICE!

Each connector is able to provide a maximum current of 150mA at 12 VDC. This is sufficient power for most readers. Readers requiring higher current will need to have the power supplied from an external power supply.

5.1.3	Input Connectors
		Two 8-pin terminal strips across the top of the 4-Reader board provide termination points for
		the door contacts and request-to-exit devices associated with the readers. The terminal strips
		are identified as T6 and T7 on the 4-Reader board.
		For each of the four readers this board can control, there are two terminals each for
		connection of a door contact and a request-to-exit device. Both circuits (contact and REX) are
		supervised and should be terminated according to the type of supervision applied to that
		particular input (Section 9.5.1 Wiring Diagram for Supervised Inputs, page 51). If either contact
		or REX device are not to be used, then the termination resistor should be installed across the
		terminals within the controller. Refer to Section 9 How to Install Reader and Field Devices,
		page 41, for detailed wiring diagrams.

5.1.4 Output Connectors

Four 6-pin terminal strips provide connections for door strike and/or magnetic lock control. The four terminal strips are labelled on the circuit boards as T2, T3, T4 and T5. The output terminals are Form-C type dry contacts from relays located on the 4-Reader board. Each output relay provides Normally Closed (N/C), Normally Open (N/O) and a Common terminal (COM). Each relay also has a corresponding LED, that lights up whenever the relay is activated.

T2 provides output connection points for readers 1 and 2. T3 provides output connection points for readers 3 and 4. T4 provides connection points for two spare relays. T5 provides two spare relay outputs, except on the first 4-Reader board. T5, relay 8 provides a common alarm output for all Reader boards.

On the first 4-Reader board, the last relay is assigned in the software to provide a common alarm output from the controller. This relay is intended to provide an easy hand-off by the controller of an alarm indication to an external burglar alarm system. The common alarm relay will activate whenever a Door Forced Open or Door Held Open alarm is detected by the controller. It will also activate when the controller's door tamper circuit is activated, or in occurrence of an AC power failure.

The common alarm relay will reset when all alarm conditions have returned to normal.

Detailed information concerning the common alarm output is provided in this manual.

NOTICE!

The contacts of all relays are rated at DC 24V/1A maximum.

The pin configuration for each output connectors is shown in the tables below.

Four 6-pin terminal strips provide connection points for connection of external devices controlled by the AEC2.1. The terminal strips are labelled on the circuit board as T2, T3, T4 and T5. The output terminals are Form-C type dry contacts from relays located on the 8-IO board. For each relay, Normally Closed (N/C), Normally Open (N/O) and a Common terminal (COM) are provided.

NOTICE!

The contacts of all relays are rated at DC 24V/1A maximum

The relay contacts can be connected directly to many low voltages DC powered devices, including alarm bells, security lights, horns, etc. When using the outputs to control high voltage devices, such as lighting circuits, electric door controllers, gate motors, etc., an external interface relay must always be used. Also, use an external relay when interfacing with AC-power devices.

In all instances where the output relay is used to operate an inductive load, such as when interfacing with an external relay, or powering the coil of an alarm bell, a back-biased diode
