The ComNet™ FDW1000 data extenders provide optical connectivity between one card
reader and its associated door or gate locking hardware, to any Wiegand, MagStripe,
or F/2F-based control panel. The connection is completely supervised and secure, and
a pair of these units will support a single locking gate or door and its associated reader
using two multimode or singlemode optical fibers. The ComNet™ EXP100 Expansion
Module enables additional Wiegand-based devices to be added to the network.
An auxiliary I/O (input/output) interface is available for determining door, gate, and
control panel status and signaling, and a relay interface provides the door strike or gate
activation functions. See Figures 10 and 11 beginning on Page 5 for a guide to the
I/Os and Relay Controls.
The FDW1000 series are supplied as a remote unit for door or gate locations, and a
central unit for control panel installation, managed by use of a Dip Switch on each unit.
See Figures 3 through 5 on Page 3 for Central and Remote Dip Switch Settings.
These extenders are designed for long-term, reliable operation in harsh industrial
environments, and a fault-specific LED indicator is provided for rapidly ascertaining
the operating status of the extender and the link. See Figure 17 on Page 12 for an
explanation of LED indicators.
Packaged in a rugged aluminum housing, these units are designed for shelf or surface
mounting. See Figure A on Page 12 for mounting instructions.
See Figures 1 – 17 for complete installation details.

Bench Test and Set Up:
1. Connect the Remote and Central unit Fiber Optic por ts together using a
crossover connection as shown in the diagram.
2. Connect a suitable power supply to both units.
3. Apply power. After a short delay, both units’ Status LEDs should flash with
a green pulse to indicate successful communication.
4. Touch a jumper wire from the GND connection to the RLY 3 input on the
FDW1000/C. The relay should activate with an audible click. A VOM or
continuity tester should show RLY 1 N.O. Contacts on the FDW1000/R
closing when the RLY 1 input is connected to GND on the FDW1000/C.
5. FDW1000 ships preset for Wiegand data format. Refer to Figure 5 on
Page 3 to set the Dip Switch to a different reader and panel format.
6. Connect a reader to the FDW1000/R and a panel to the FDW1000/C.
Verify that card reads are being accepted by the access control system.
Perform any troubleshooting before installing the units in the field.
7. If the EXP100 Expansion modules are used with this system, refer to
EXP100 integration information beginning on Page 8.
8. When proper settings are verified, units are ready for final installation and
operation.

NOTE: FDW1000/C’s RLY 3 functions as an Alarm relay and monitors the condition of the communication link between the
FDW1000/C and FDW1000/R units.
It is activated when power is applied and the communication link between the FDW1000/C and FDW1000/R is
functioning.
It becomes deactivated (Alarm Condition) when the RLY 3 IN input on the FDW1000/R is active OR when the FDW1000/R
unit is unable to communicate with the FDW1000/C unit.
The system provides a supervised signal to the panel inter face by reading the supervised status of the contacts
connected to the FW1000/R unit.

SETUP EXP100
Configuration Process:
1. With power off, set the Dip Switch on the Central unit according to the table below.
2. Apply Power. The Status LED should display a steady Green indication.
3. Remove Power. Set Dip Switch #1 to OFF. Any other Dip Switches can now be set as required (Reader family/
Pullup resistors). The FDW1000/C is now configured. No configuration is necessary for the FDW1000/R.
4. Configure the EXP100 expansion module according to that product’s manual.
5. Connect the Expansion mofules into the system as indicated in Figures 15 and 16 beginning on Page 9.
Operation:
The FDW1000 series Remote and Central units will operate as a standard pair, with all of the I/O and data terminals
available for use with readers and access control systems. WIth the expansion module:
• The Status LED on the FDW1000 units will indicate the status of the main (gateway) communication link only.
• The Alarm relay on the Central gateway unit will deactivate (indicate alarm condition) when the communication
fails between the gateway units or ANY of the Remote or Central EXP100 units.

INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
This fiber-optic link is supplied as a Standalone module. Units should be
FIGURE A
Dimensions are for a standard ComNet FDW1000 module
installed in dry locations protected from extremes of temperature and
humidity.
CAUTION: Take care not to press on any of the LEDs.
WARNING: Unit is to be used with a Listed Class 2 or LPS power supply.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS:
A) Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack
assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may
be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to
installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum
ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.

3.15" [8.00 cm]
0.80"
[2.03 cm]
3.08"
[7.82 cm]
B) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such
that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not
compromised.
