Installing the Door
Module into the Controller

In this chapter, we will introduce how to mount the door module into an EverAccess
Flex Series controller. The definitions for the reader/door index is also explained.

The EverAccess Flex series controller can accommodates up to 4 door modules and
1 alarm module. The door modules are connected from right to left, with each new
module connecting easily in a cascading fashion. The door modules and the alarm
module can be placed in any sequence. The index will follow the same rules (refer to
