Product Overview

About This Manual

This manual is intended to provide the user with an overview of EclypX and BasicX
features, benefits, specifications, set up/installation procedures and maintenance. It
also contains important safety information.

Introduction

The performance of the Axcys Integrated Security System Components is far
superior to any other product designed for the Self Storage Market today. Featuring
complete, closed loop acknowledgement between devices and the Host PC, Axcys
provides a unique, hi technology security and access control solution.
Ease of use and installation is the hallmark of the Axcys Integrated Security
System. Axcys Software is simple, reliable and easy to use. Inexpensive and free
support options are available. These options include Internet based support and

replacement or upgrade becomes necessary, due to the modular design simply unplug a
card and replace with a new one – just like plugging in an electric appliance!
Both the BasicX and the EclypX Access Control Keypads are designed to be used both
indoor or outdoor. Their cases feature a Weather/Water resistant design as do the
electronics.

Always Observe local health, safety building and electrical code
requirements and guidelines for manual material handling and
installation!

User Programmable features include:

1. Programmable Greeting [changeable a storagable list you can create!]

2. User settable messaging including:

1. Greeting

2. Lockout

3. Entry

4. Exit

5. Past Due

6. Invalid Code

7. Door Open

8. More....

1. Automatically open the gate after communication loss of x seconds [user
programmable]. The setting is in Seconds and user settable from 0 to 254 where
0 is disabled. Default setting is 0 (disable feature).

2. Change the amount of time the user has to hold the touchpad button for it to be
recognized. To increase the debounce setting, raise this value. This feature
allows customization to suit your tenants needs – such as the elderly who may
need more time.

3. How long to wait for a response from the host; displays no response from host
after this timeout.

4. How long to wait for a user to finish putting their code in the touchpad ( and hit
the Pound key). This feature allows customization to suit your tenants needs –
such as the elderly who may need more time.

5. How often to check the gate monitor. User settable from 2 to 254 seconds. This
optional feature allows the keypad to check the position of the gate and report it
to the Axcys Software, so even if you cannot “see” the gate, you know if it is open,
closed or in the middle.

Best Practices & Precautions!

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) precautions

Before performing any set up or placement procedures, take the precautions outlined in this
section.

Be sure to take appropriate Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) precautions. Disconnect the
power source before moving, cabling, or performing any set up procedures.

Best Practices

Note

Always remove power whenever adding or replacing modules. Do NOT hot swap!

important

• Always observe your local laws and ordinances.

• Use non-plenum wire unless directed by local code.

• Always use a Regulated Power Supply!

• Use Industry standard Best Practices unless specifically directed to deviate by

Global Electronics, however always conform to any laws and ordinances.

• Beware Static! Always practice ESD Safe Handling

• Because each site is unique, we advise you consult with Global Electronics, Ltd.

for Power supply locations, size and voltage; wire gauge and data wire
specifications for YOUR unique site requirements

• Drain wire should be attached at the Keypad ground point end only. This should

only ever be attached this one end, never at the PC end or at another point . If
spices are made (not recommended) splice the drain wire also. Do not terminate
at the splice.

• Ground wire must be attached to the rear case stud. The case MUST be properly

earth grounded top prevent damage AND limit electrical shock hazard!

• An earth ground stake must located within 3 feet of each keypad and must be set

at least 18” or whatever your local ordinances require. Beware of other
underground objects from utilities etc. ALWAYS contact your local utilities
and/or Blue Stake BEFORE digging!

• Connector Attachment - How to attach connectors to circuit boards. The

connectors supplied may physically be attached in two different

orientations. HOWEVER, one method is preferred over the other. If
you choose to use the NON-RECOMMENDED attachment, you may
have intermittent contact, yielding un-reliable results.

Connector Attachment

Quick release screw-down terminal block for the 18V power and power connections is
provided for easy connection to the external power supply. These connector block
(terminal blocks) are removable and do not require the removal of the wire(s) from them to
remove them from the circuit board.
The connectors supplied may physically be attached in two different orientations.
HOWEVER, one method is preferred over the other. If you choose to use the NON­RECOMMENDED attachment, you may have intermittent contact, yielding un-reliable
results.
This is the preferred method over the non-recommended method. Note that the wires exit
the PCB parallel to the board. Not vertically.

This picture illustrates the NON-RECOMMENDED method for attachment.

I n General

• Always use stranded wire.

• Always use cable that has a shield with a drain wire.

• Calculate voltage drops and select the correct gauge wire accordingly!

• Use 18AWG stranded wire for transmitting DC Power from keypad to keypad

• Use only RS485 Compatible wire. See the section entitled “Data Wire

• Use no less than 20AWG stranded cable the has a shield and drain wire when

• Attach the Drain wire to the appropriate ground wire on the Remote Device

Power Supply

Axcys EclypX and BasicX Digital Access Control Keypad require a regulated
18VDC @ 1000 mA (typical minimum). Details appear below. For new installations or re­wiring, Global Electronics, recommends that you contact a certified installer, or Global to
provide specific power/communications details for your particular site. For a list of
certified installation companies, please contact Global Electronics, Ltd. directly.
Power wiring (and Data Wire) may be daisy chained but keep in mind distance vs. voltage
drop. Also the more remotes on the same power supply, the larger the wire must be and the
more current the supply must be capable of handling.

your keypads are equipped with a 1200 Baud Modem.

ONLY .

Polarity!

Be sure to attach the positive wire to the pin labeled + and the negative to the pin labeled -.
Reversing polarity may damage the unit.
