Product Overview
The EverAccess® Flex Series controller (part number: EFC-02-1A) incorporates
state-of-the-art technology and modular design to provide reliable performance, userfriendly installation, expansion capabilities, and flexible but powerful configuration
options. The alarm module (part number EFM-AL-1A) is the alarm expansion unit
for the Flex Series Controller.
The alarm module provides 8 alarm inputs and 8 alarm outputs. With the expansion
alarm module and 4 door modules installed, the EverAccess Flex Series controller can
support up to 10 alarm inputs and 18 alarm outputs. The alarm module is installed in
a right to left cascading fashion. The features for the alarm module are listed in the
next section.
Fea tures
¾ Supports 8 alarm inputs
¾ Supports 8 alarm outputs
¾ Built-in transient voltage suppressor (TVS) to protect controller from electric
surge
¾ Large durable relay, max current draw up to 2A at 30VDC
¾ Built-in LEDs display the system status intuitively
Parts List
Please be careful when you unpack the box due to the electronics devices inside.
Check and make sure that you have all the items below inside the original box:
¾ 3 mm* 4mm screws (to mount the module to the controller)
If an item appears to have been damaged in shipment, replace it properly in its carton
and notify the shipper. If any items are missing, notify your Everfocus Electronics

Installing an Alarm
Module into the Controller
The EverAccess Flex series controller can accommodate up to 4 door modules and 1
alarm module. The alarm module connects to the door modules in a cascading
fashion. It can be installed in any of the 5 available positions; the order of installation
of the door modules and alarm module does not affect the functionality.
The steps to install an alarm module are described below:

Figure 2.1 Install an alarm module into Controller
1. Connect the pins on the lower right corner of the new module to the connector
on the bottom left corner of the installed module. Make sure that the pins fit
snugly into the receiving module.
2. Secure the module to the controller base board using the three screws (provided
in the module package).

Alarm Module LED Definition
There are 8 LED indicators on each door module. The positions and indexes are
shown in Fig. 3.2. The definitions of the LED indicators are presented in Table 3.2.
Fig. 3.2 Alarm Module LED Definition
The definitions of LEDs on the alarm module are defined in the following table:
Table 3.2 The definition of the LED indication on the alarm module
LED Meaning LED Meaning
1 Alarm 1 5 Alarm 5
2 Alarm 2 6 Alarm 6
3 Alarm 3 7 Alarm 7
4 Alarm 4 8 Alarm 8
The alarm LED has four different indications:
Light off: No alarm alert for the alarmed zone.
Light flashes slowly: The alarmed zone is in the alert delay stage.
Solid light on: The alarm alert is on for the alarmed zone
Light flashes quickly: The alarmed zone is in danger; alarm signal is input

Wiring
This chapter will describe, in detail, how to wire the terminals in the door modules.
Connection to Alarm Input
The alarm signals other than the fire alarm and alarm input 0 are controlled by the
alarm module, which contains 8 alarm inputs and 8 alarm outputs. Using the 5
channel alarm signal input as an example, the method to connect the alarm module to
the alarm sensor is shown in Fig. 4.1:

Connection to Alarm Output
The alarm module provides 8 alarm inputs and 8 alarm outputs. The user can assign
the corresponding relay status to the different events. There are three terminals:
COM, N.O and N.C. The wiring depends on the alarm device. Please read the user
manual of the external alarm devices before wiring. Using the 5
output as an example, the wiring is shown in Fig. 4. 2 and 4. 3.
