The extension board AMC2-16IOE can be used with an AMC2
controller. It serves additional inputs and outputs.
Figure 3.1: The extension board AMC2-16IOE
The AMC2 has eight analog input devices and eight relay
outputs. With its analog input devices, the AMC2 verifies, for
example, if a lock is closed or open. The relay outputs can be
used to activate lock mechanisms if access is granted, or
activate an external alarm system if an intrusion or system alert
is detected.
If the eight inputs and eight outputs of the AMC2 are not enough
to configure the system up to three additional extensions
AMC2-16IOE can be connected. The extension offers 16
additional inputs and 16 outputs.
The AMC2-16IOE electronics are completely covered by a plastic
housing.
Up to three extensions can be connected to an AMC2, making a
maximum of 56 inputs and outputs available.
The AMC2-16IOE has no display. The information about the
input and outputs will be shown on special pages of the AMC2
display.
Notice!
An AMC2-16IOE provides signals only to the AMC2 to which it is
connected. Signal transfer to another AMC2 is not possible.
3.1.2
Extension AMC2-8IOE
To optimize the utilization of the available signals the extension
module can be delivered in a reduced version, too. The
AMC2-8IOE has eight inputs and eight outputs. The places of the
pluggable screw connectors are on one side of the module - the
other side will be closed by the housing.
For Properietary Burglar Alarm installations (BIS) AMC2-16IOE
and AMC2-8IOE can be combined - for example: two
AMC2-16IOE together with one AMC2-8IOE. However the
maximum of three extensions per AMC2 still applies.
For Access Control (Access PE) only one extension is
permissible.
The AMC2-8IOE is identical in all respects to the AMC2-16IOE
except in the number of inputs and outputs. Information in this
manual refers to all three extensions described here, unless
explicitly stated otherwise.
3.1.3
Extension AMC2-16IE
Another variant of the extension modul AMC2-16IOE is the
AMC2-16IE which offers connectors for input signals only.
The inputs are located at the same positions as on the
AMC2-16IOE. The output connections in the AMC2-16IE are not
usable. Within a system configuration the AMC2-16IE is treated
as a normal extension module:
It can be connected at any AMC2. Up to three extensions (for
BIS three, for Access PE only one) can be connected to an
AMC2. Extension variants can be used in any combination.
The AMC2-16IOE can be attached on a standard 35 mm
(1.377 in.) mounting rail using a snap-in mechanism. Attach the
AMC2-16IOE into the upper edge of the mounting rail [1], then
push down the device and snap it onto the rail by pushing it
towards the back [2].
Figure 4.1: Mounting the AMC2 device on a mounting rail
To open the AMC2-16IOE, first remove all pluggable
connectors.
The AMC2-16IOE case consists of a top cover mounted with a
two-point snap-in closure on a chassis. To open the case, push
down the two snap-ins with a screwdriver, then swing the cover
down.
Before aligning the covers, unplug any pluggable screw
connectors. Insert the hooks on the lower edge of the front
cover into the lugs on lower edge of the plastic back cover [1].
Please ensure that the BOSCH logo is not upside-down. The
upper edge of the front cover now aligns with the two-point
snap-in closures on the upper edge of the back cover [2], and
may thus be clicked gently into place.
Hence the closing process is the reverse of the opening process.
The cables used in the AMC2-16IOE access control system are
not prone to electrical interference. However, you should avoid
routing cables close to heavy load switching cables and
equipment. If this is unavoidable, cross the cable at right angles
every 1 to 2 m (3 to 6 ft) to reduce interference.
Conductor data
With the calculation below you can find out which cable type
must be used. If you connect the power supply and the AMCdevice with the delivered cable set from the enclosure the
calculation is not necessary.
For distances below 25 m (75 ft) use AWG18 conductors
(1mm²). For longer distances, install an additional power supply
close to the AMC2 controller.
Please, calculate the voltage drop by checking the conductor
specifications for characteristic resistance values. The voltage
drop shall not exceed 2 V.
Example:
Length = 100 m/328 ft
U = 12V, I = 1A, maximum U
Drop
= 2V
i.e. RAWG18 (acc. specs) = 6.385
U
= 20,948 x 0.1 km x 1A = 2.1V
Drop
U
= 6.385
Drop
x 328 ft x 1A = 2.1V
or 20,948
Critical condition! Install the power supply closer to the
controller.
The AMC2 controller allows you to create a central ground or
shielding point, simply by setting certain jumpers. Set these
jumpers only if grounding or shielding is not achieved by other
means.
1.If the AMC2-16IOE has its own power – as in the third
example in Overview - Power supply/consumption, page 29
– the shield will be connected to pin 2 of the power supply
connector – see Connecting Diagrams, page 46.
2.If the extension module is powered from the AMC2
controller – as in the second example in Overview - Powersupply/consumption, page 29 – the connection should be
made as in the RS-485 for extension modules, page 32
diagram.
3.If more than one extension module is to be connected to an
AMC2 controller, and all of them to receive power from it as
well, then use the RS-485 extension interface for the
connection.
Notice!
In the second and third case the jumper B on the bottom side
of the AMC2-controller must to be set - see the installation
manual of the AMC2-4W.
The jumper A of the extension boards will not be set.
If the devices have their own power supplies, the shielding is
applied to one side only. The free end should be insulated to
avoid inadvertent connections.
If one device is fed power by another, the cable shielding
should be applied to both sides.
4.6.1
Grounding for Extension Interface
Figure 4.5: Location of ground jumper bottom side
The jumper setting A1 shows the factory settings.
Jumper connects the internal ground of the AMC2-16IOE to the
ground of the RS-485 slave interface. Set Jumper A2 only at the
first AMC2-16IOE of a party line - like example four in Overview -Power supply/consumption, page 29.
Connect the power supply to the POWER 7-pin pluggable screw
connector. Refer to Connecting Diagrams, page 46 for a
complete diagram.
Figure 4.6: Location of the power supply connector
Connect an external power supply (10 - 30 Vdc) for AMC2-16IOE
at pin 1 (positive) and pin 3 (0 V) of the pluggable screw
connector.
If an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is used, the relay
output for power good signals from the UPS is connected to the
following pins:
–pin 4 and 7 for power good AC
–pin 5 and 7 for power good Battery
–pin 6 and 7 for power good DC
Otherwise these pins must be short-circuited.

Constant loadAmount of the available power that can
be drawn constantly.
Hence Example 1 can be read as follows:
Of the total incoming power (60VA) 5VA will be drawn by the
AMC2 itself . This leaves 55VA to support external devices.
25VA of these 55VA can be used for constant load (e.g. a card
reader) leaving 30VA for occasional peak usage (e.g. a door
opener).
The AMC2-16IOE is connected to the AMC2 controller using the
RS-485 extension interface. This interface will also be used to
connect further extension modules.
Figure 4.9: Location of the RS-485 extension module bus
Figure 4.10: Connection of an extension module to an AMC2
The address of the board is set using a switch on the board’s
underside (see Equipment Configuration, page 14).
Up to three extension boards (BIS) can be connected to one
AMC2 - depending on that the addresses 1 to 3 can be assigned,
only.
Notice!
When configuring the system, ensure that the order of boards
in the access control software corresponds to the addresses
you set using this switch.
This order of addressing determines the numbering of the
boards’ signals – see Connecting Diagrams, page 46.

Connecting Relay Outputs
To operate locks or alarm systems, the AMC2-16IOE has 16 form
C relay outputs. The outputs will be connected to the 3-pin
pluggable screw connectors S6 - 9, S14 - 17, S24 - 27, and S32 35 - refer to Connecting Diagrams, page 46.
The AMC2 8I-8O-EXT has the connectors S6 - 9 and S14 - 17,
only.
There are no outputs for the AMC2-16IE.
Figure 4.11: Location of the relay output connectors
Each relay output can operate in ‘wet’ mode, using the
AMC2-16IOE's internal 12/24 Vdc power supply for external
devices or ‘dry’ mode with potential free contacts for externally
powered systems.
Figure 4.12: Wet mode and dry mode of the AMC2 relay outputs
To prevent damage to the relays note the following
specifications.
–the maximum switching current is 1.25 A
–the maximum switching voltage is 30 Vdc
–only ohm resistive load can be connected to the relay
–inductive loads have to be short circuited using recovery
diodes, see image below. These diodes (1N4004) are
supplied with every AMC2-16IOE package.
–If you need higher voltage for special applications you can
connect external relays to the outputs. Recommended,
depending on the power supply mode, are the relay types
from the Wieland company:
–Flare move 12DC1W10A
–Flare move 24DC1W16A
If using locally manufactured products, please ensure that the
specifications of the product are identical with the those listed
above.
A complete connection diagram of the relay output connectors
is shown in Connecting Diagrams, page 46.
The AMC2-16IOE has 16 analog inputs, for example, for
potential-free lock mechanisms, or to detect whether a lock is
closed or open. The inputs will be connected to the 2-pin
pluggable screw connectors: - refer to Connecting Diagrams,page 46.
The AMC2-8IOE has the connectors S2 - 5 and S10 - 13, only.
Notice!
Risk of damage to equipment
Do not connect external power supply to the AMC2 inputs.
When connecting a relay output to an AMC2 input use dry mode
with potential-free contact - refer to Connecting Relay Outputs,
page 33.
Figure 4.15: Location of the analog input connectors
The AMC2-16IOE can also detect the wiring conditions ‘short
circuit’ and ‘broken’, and hence trigger an alarm if the
appropriate devices are connected.

The resistor values can vary and depend on the used lock
system.
The extension package includes 2,2 kΩ resistors which can be
used to replace RS and RP resistor.
To detect the four states, the voltage drop in the connecting
cable may not exceed special values. The following table shows
the maximum values of permissible cable resistance depending
on the used resistor combination.
To protect the AMC2-16IOE against unauthorized access and so
prevent tampering with sensitive data, the AMC2-16IOE provides
an additional interface to connect external tamper contacts.
This interface is a potential-free 2-pin pluggable screw
connector marked with T. When not in use this tamper contact
should be shorted.
Figure 4.16: Location of the tamper protection contact
Because the AMC2-16IOE has no display of its own, the AMC2
controller displays status information about the input and
output settings of the AMC2 extension boards.
The selected display mode remains set until the next time the
button is pressed. The order of the display pages is shown in
the following table. Display pages 3a to 3c include the
information about the I/O-Boards’ signals. For each I/O-Board
connected there is a separate display page.
