4 Installation Preparation
System Requirements
• Compatible browser (See details on page 14)
• Access to a mains power outlet.
• Access to an Ethernet Network point or a router/switch that will allow network connectivity.
• In the absence of any network, HID Access Manager can be set up and administered by
connecting a desktop/laptop PC directly to the Controller Module with an (uncrossed) network
cable.
Suggested Tools
• Electric drill
• Drill bits (Masonry / steel – to suite the site wall materials)
• Screwdriver, small, flat
• Wire strippers
• Side cutters
• Site plan (to lay out door and reader locations)
Additional Hardware
• Electric strike locks and/or mag locks
• Power supply with sufficient capacity to power the locks (see calculations on page 19)
• Push buttons for Request-to-Exit (REX)
• Door Position Sensor (DPS) switches (if not built into the locks)
• Mains power cable with a plug on one end
• Cable for Wiegand Readers, sufficient for the site (measure the site)
• Cable for Door Position Sensor and Request-to-Exit, sufficient for the site (measure the site)

5 System Architecture – Best Practices
One or two ACW2-XN enclosures?
ONE ACW2-XN enclosure
• is sufficient for up to 8 readers
• AND if all doors are within reasonable cabling distance of the enclosure
TWO ACW2-XN enclosures are needed
• for 9 to 16 readers
• OR if a second group of doors is a significant distance away from the first group. The two
enclosures are linked with an RS-485 cable, saving on long, multiple-reader cable runs.
(Remember that the total door count still cannot exceed the 16-door limit.)
How many AW2 Modules are needed?
• One
AW2
Module is needed for each door that has both entry and exit readers.
• One
AW2
Module is needed for every TWO doors that only require entry readers
NOTE:
• Any combination of single-readers and two-reader doors is permissible
• Readers may be independently allocated to any door
• Whatever the combination, no more than sixteen doors are supported
Example using three AW2 Wiegand Modules:
Any combination of single-reader or entry+exit-reader doors is possible

Second/Slave ACW2-XN cable run considerations
NOTE that the Slave ACW2-XN:
• Does NOT connect to the network
• MUST connect via RS-485 to the Master ACW2-XN
• Is able to continue reading cards and controlling its doors in the event of an RS-485 cable break

Removal/Fitting the Lid
Mark Up Mounting Holes Using Drilling Template
1. Select fasteners that are appropriate for the mounting surface (masonry/wood/ dry wall)
2. Select the drill size appropriate for the fasteners
3. Fix the Drilling Template against the chosen vertical surface (using the supplied double-sided tape),
making sure that the top edge is horizontal. (Remember to allow 30 mm clearance on the left of the
ACW2-XN enclosure to allow the door to hinge fully open.)
4. Centre punch the two mounting hole locations
5. Drill holes of a diameter that is suitable for the fasteners
6. Remove the lid from the enclosure (as per instructions above)
7. Mount the enclosure to the surface
8. Replace the lid (and plug the lid cable back in) after the system wiring is complete
9. Place the AC and AW2 module labels in the correct positions provided on the back page of the
ACW2-XN Quick Install Guide. The information on the labels will be used during the door
configuration process via HID Access Manager.
Expanding the controller with more Wiegand Modules
The
ACW2-XN
comes assembled with one AW2 module, and can support another three AW2 modules.
Additional AW2 modules are plugged into the sides of the existing modules, and then fastened in place
with the four mounting screws that are included with each AW2 module.
Remember to place the additional AW2 Module labels on the back page of the ACW2-XN Quick Install
Guide
Note:
•
AW2
modules may be added or removed without powering down the system.

Where to use the suppled MOVs
The MOVs MUST be connected across 12V inductive loads to prevent sparking at the
relay contacts.
The supplied MOVs are only for 12V applications, and are MANDATORY
Supervised Inputs (Optional)
HID Access Manager can monitor the Door Position Sensor (DPS) circuits for tampering
when resisters are installed.
Two 1kΩ resistors are required for every sense line. These should be installed in a
location where they cannot be accessed without opening the door in question:
This feature must be activated in HID Access Manager via the door configuration
process.
