VertX™ CS is the first family of access controllers designed specifically for alarm dealers for direct
connection to central stations. Because it was designed with central station in mind, VertX CS works with
software from leading central station automation providers, including Bold Technologies, DICE and
GE MAS.
The V2000 is designed to control two sets of door devices (such as two-doors, two-readers, associated
contacts and relays) as well as manage communications with the central station automated software.

Prior to starting the installation, please completely read this guide.
CAUTION: The V2000 is sensitive to Electrostatic Discharges (ESD). Observe precautions while handling the
circuit board assembly by using proper grounding straps and handling precautions at all times.
1.2V2000
1. Remove the plastic or Mylar cover.
2. Verify the battery is installed. If the battery is not
installed, complete these steps:
a. Remove the button cell battery from the accessory kit.
b. Install the button cell battery (+ side up) in the battery
holder, BT1.
c. Verify that the battery jumper is in the ON position (or
OUT position on old covers), P10 (V2000), pins 2-3.
d. Replace the plastic or Mylar cover.
Step 2 Hardware Installation
2.1 Mounting Instructions
1. The V2000 should always be mounted in a secure area.
2. Mount the V2000 using the four mounting screws (provided) or other appropriate fasteners.
Place the fasteners in the corner holes of the base.
3. The V2000 can be stacked with or without the cover. Do not remove the plastic base. Make
sure you position the V2000 in such a way as to provide room for wiring, air flow and cable
runs.
CAUTION: Connectors on the V2000 sides are positioned to be mirror images and are not
interchangeable once the installation is complete. Therefore, you cannot unplug the connector from
one side of the board and plug it into the corresponding connector on the other side of the board.
1. Network Connection: Connect the V2000 to the network using a standard Cat5 network
patch cable. Connect one end of the Cat 5 network patch cable to the J1 (RJ-45) connector
on the V2000 and the other end to the network connection point (network jack, hub, switch, or
router) on your site.
2. Power and Alarm input connections: Connect power by providing 12VDC to the P7
connector. +12VDC goes to Pin 1 and Ground on Pin 2. The Bat Fail, AC Fail, and Tamper
switch inputs are wired as shown in the table. Connect the Bat Fail and AC Fail inputs to
battery low/failure and AC failure contacts provided on the power supply. Connect the Tamper
input to a tamper switch on the enclosure.

3. Reader Connections: Connect
Wiegand or clock-and-data interfaces
using the connection table shown. You
can connect up to 10 signal lines for
the reader. Use as many signal lines
as are required for your reader
interface.
Note: Connect the data return line to
the same ground as the reader power,
if the reader is not powered by the
VertX controller’s 12VDC.

4. Output Connections – All Output connections are used for
general purpose controls. The following table shows where the
various outputs are located among the various VertX types. Pin
numbers shown use the convention “NO/C/NC”. For example,
Output 1, V2000: P3 Pin1 is NO (Normally Open) and Pin 2 is
C (Common) and Pin 3 is NC (Normally Closed).
5. Input Connections – Input connections are used for a combination of specific functions such
as Request-to-Exit (REX), Door monitor, etc. They can also be used as general purpose
monitoring. Connect one side of the switch or contact to the + (plus) lead and the other to the
– (minus) lead. The following table shows where the inputs are located among the different
VertX units. Pin numbers shown on the cover use the convention +/–.
The default REX switch configuration is normally open (NO) unsupervised (no EOL resistors),
while the default door switch (DS) configuration is Normally Closed (NC) unsupervised (no
EOL resistors). All other input points are defaulted for NO switches and are unsupervised (no
EOL resistors).
Any input can be configured as a supervised input. They can be configured for resistors of 1K
– 6K Ohm. The setup of supervised inputs should be done during configuration of the VertX
units via the central station automation software (host) or by using the Calibrate Input tool, see
section 4.1 Calibrate Input.
Example: Input 1, V1000 is: P14 Pin1 is + and Pin 2 is -.
