–For units intended to operate at 12V DC normal input
voltage is 12V DC. Voltage input must never exceed
15V DC.
10. Lightning - For added protection during electrical storms
external lightning conductors can be installed. This
prevents power surges from damaging the unit.

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.
