INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
2903 Power Supply
Installation Instructions
I-EA00003
The unit must be mounted indoors and away from any moist or wet areas.
(For Canada, this unit shall be installed in accordance with the "Canadian
Electrical Code, Part I".) Some common locations for mounting 2903 would
be in the plenum near the door containing the electric locking device or in a
nearby closet or electrical room.
When installing the unit in the plenum, wires must either be of plenum rating
or contained inside conduit. The unit must be mounted in a vertical position
with the power supply module located at the top, as shown in the photograph
above. Four 1/4” holes are provided for mounting the box to the wall or other
rigid surface. If the surface material is wood, it must be at least 1 inch thick.
Use either a truss or pan head, 1 inch long sheet metal screw (#10 or larger)
for fastening the box to the wood surface. When mounting the unit to 1/2
inch or 5/8 inch dry wall, it is recommended that 3/16 inch or 1/4 inch
diameter toggle bolts be used for maximum support. Use the same size
toggle bolts for mounting the unit to hollow concrete blocks. For mounting to
concrete, solid block, or brick, it is recommended to use 1-3/4 inch long
(minimum) x 1/4 inch diameter hex head bolt anchors (sometimes called
power-bolts) in 18-8 stainless steel or Grade 5 zinc-plated steel. The sub
plate can be removed from the box for easier access to the mounting holes.
To remove the sub plate, locate the four #6 locknuts near each corner of the
plate and remove. The 6-32 studs, from which the sub plate mounts to, are
held in place to the box by threaded standoffs.
Wiring the AC Input
The 2903 power supply is rated for use with a 20 amp branch circuit and is
capable of accepting either 120VAC or 240VAC input without the need for
making any changes, or reconfiguring to convert from one input voltage to
the other. Because the power supply module contains Class 2 double
insulation, an earth ground wire is not required. For wiring 120VAC or
240VAC input, run 14 AWG 2-conductor to the power supply module’s input
terminals marked L (Line) and N (Neutral). Ensure that the conductors are
fully inserted into the input terminals with no bare metal exposed. (Refer to
the wire stripping instructions included on the wiring diagram attached to the
cover plate of this power supply.)
the enclosure (above and to the left of the power supply module’s
input terminals). All secondary wiring must be routed through any
one of the knockouts located along the bottom wall of the
enclosure.
Note: This unit is not equipped with a battery standby power feature.
Control Switch
Used for indirectly switching power to fail safe and fail secure locking
devices, a control switch can be momentary or maintained action, depending
on the application. A control switch can be in the form of relay contacts, such
as used in card reader systems, motion detectors, or stand alone keypads.
Key switches, push-button switches, and emergency release type switches
(including fire alarm contacts) can also be used as a control switch for local
or remote switching of electric locking devices. It is important to ensure that
the switching device be in the form of “dry” contacts only (no voltage riding on
the switch contacts, usually referred to as “wet” contacts).
The control switch actually energizes and de-energizes an on board interface
relay. The purpose for the relay is to isolate locking device current from the
control switch contacts. Using this method of control, switches with low
current ratings can be used without the risk of becoming damaged from the
higher current of the locking device, which can be 0.5 amp or greater. The
control switch will only see low relay current (15mA) passing through its
contacts. The higher current drawn from the locking device will be switched
through the heavy duty 7 amp rated contacts of the interface relay.
Note: To keep line drop (voltage lost due to resistance in the field wire)
to a minimum, it is recommended that an 18 gauge stranded two
conductor cable be run from the 2903 to each electrified locking
device (or two locking devices if required on pair door
applications). Each separate run must not exceed 500 feet. The
control switch, however, can be located several hundred feet
further from the power supply with hardly any voltage lost on
account of the high impedance of the relay coil (1,600 ohms).
Caution: It is important to maintain separation between the primary (high
voltage AC) wiring and secondary (low voltage DC) wiring as they
are routed inside the power supply enclosure. The primary wiring
must be run inside conduit; and the conduit must be connected to
one of the knockouts located towards the left end of the top wall of

Trouble Shooting Tips
Listed below are some problems that might be encountered during
installation or at any other time and possible solutions for correcting them.
Caution: This unit contains areas of exposed high voltage. All
troubleshooting and maintenance should be performed by a qualified
electrician.
Problem
No output voltage measured across terminals NC, NO, and 24DC.
Solution
› Check for 120VAC across terminals of input to power supply module.
› If 120VAC is present, disconnect field wires from all used outputs (NC,
NO, 24DC) and measure for 24VDC across the “24DC” terminals.
› If 24VDC is now present, check for shorts across field wires for each
output. If the load is an electrified locking device mounted in the door,
check the electric hinge for pinched wires behind each leaf. Also check
for shorted wires between the locking device and raceway in the door.
› If 24VDC is not present across terminals marked “24DC” (with field
wires still disconnected from all outputs), disconnect the red and black
wire leads connected to the +,- terminals of the output to the power
supply module and check for 24VDC at this output. If voltage is now
present across the power supply module’s output, it can be assumed
that there is a short circuit somewhere on the control board and it will
need to be replaced. If voltage is still not present across the output to
the power supply module, then it can be assumed the power supply
module itself is damaged and must be replaced.
Problem
The electrified locking device behaves the opposite of what was expected,
i.e., it locks when intended to unlock, or unlocks when intended to lock.
Solution
› A fail safe type locking device may be incorrectly wired to the fail
secure output terminals (NC). It must be wired to the terminals marked
“NO”.
› A fail secure type locking device may be incorrectly wired to the fail
safe output terminals (NO). It must be wired to the terminals marked
“NC”.
› Make sure that the electric locking device has been correctly modified
for the function intended: Fail Safe (power to lock), Fail Secure (power
to unlock).
› The control switch may be incorrectly wired. To lock a fail safe or fail
secure electric locking device, the control switch must be closed. To
unlock a fail safe or fail secure electric locking device, the control switch
must be open.
Problem
The electric locking device does not unlock when a control device, such as a
card reader or keypad, is activated.
Solution
› The control output from the card reader or keypad must be in the from
of dry contacts and wired across the terminals marked “OPR”. In some
cases, card readers and keypads put out a switched voltage output
when activated. Check these outputs with a voltmeter to ensure that
there is no AC/DC voltage present across these outputs when activated
or deactivated.
