Hardware Installation Guide

Overview

This section provides technical information on models ACURT2 and ACURT4. These intelligent networked devices provide access control, alarm monitoring and output control. The ACURT4 provides support for four (4) Wiegand output card readers and/or keypads, while the ACURT2 provides support for two (2) Wiegand output card readers and/or keypads. ACURT2 and ACURT4 models provide one (1) host serial port for connections to a server computer using either RS-485 or RS-232 communications and one (1) 10BaseT Ethernet port.

Each controller consi sts o f a pr inte d cir cuit board (PCB) as sembly with opti onal b atter y back up. The proc essor is a 90 MHz Motorola 5307 Coldf ire with 8 Mbytes o f RAM memory. Additional progr am memory co nsist s of 4 Mbytes FLASH ROM.

Communication to external devices is a polled serial protocol up to 4000 feet (1220 meters) for Remote Electronics Modules, such as inputs (RIM modules) or outputs (RRM modules).

Twelve (12) Grade A supervis ed inp uts on the ACURT4 or si x ( 6) Gra de- A supervised inputs on the ACURT2 are available for alarm monitoring. These supervised inputs are for exit push buttons and door contacts for the card readers, and for auxiliary monitor points.

Each model is also equipped with a low battery detection alarm and two (2) unsupervised alarms (AC power fail and cabinet tamper). Eight (8) Form-C relays are provided on the ACURT4 and four (4) for the ACURT2 for strike activation and/or remote control. All relay contacts are rated for 30 VDC at 2 amperes. DO NOT switch any voltages over 30 volts.

DIP Switches are used to set the de vice’s communicat ion baud rate and a rotar y swit ch is u sed to set the de vice address. DIP Switches are also used to terminate alarm inputs and host communications ports.

Running the Wire and Cable

The procedure for running the wire and cable is described in the following paragraphs.

Note:

1. In running wire and cable, be sure to observe and follow applicable building codes.

2. The dry relay contacts are rated at 2 amps at 30 AC/DC volts.

3. All wires should be stranded.

4. The maximum length of the wiring between the farthest Remote Module (RIM, or RRM) and the ACURT controller is 4000 feet (1220 meters) provided the remote module is locally powered.

5. Guard against lightning damage.

6. All bare Shields should be taped or protected against accidental shorting against electronic components.

RS-485 Communications

RS-485 is a differential voltage communication circuit. The impedance is 120 ohms. End-of-line terminators are required on bot h ends of t he communica tions path. Multi- drop c onfigur atio ns are all owed wit h a maxi mum length of 4000 feet. Off the RS-485 cable, stubs can be dropped, but the length of any stub should not be longer than 10 feet. Stubs can connect to ACURT controllers or remote modules (RIM or RRM). Stubs must not be terminated. We strongly recommend star configurations be avoided. (See figure 4)

The ACURT2 and ACURT4 controllers are switch selectable for RS-485 termination on each host and expansion module port.

The GE Security ACURT2/ACURT4 requires a RS-485 terminator at the NCIC-5 RS-485 converter. See Figure 13 and 14.

TOPAZ ACURT2 & ACURT4

Hardware Installation Guide

Pulling Wire and Cable

Pull the wiring to the remote module from the ACURT controller. All the wires except the strike pair may be run as one cable. The cable should have low-capacitance twisted

pairs and a shield. At tach pigtail to shield and con nect t o chassis ground. The following Belden cable numbers (or equivalent) are suggested:

Belden No. 9842-24 AWG for 1000 feet (305 meters) maximum distance

Pull a single pair of wi res from th e enclosur e to the el ectric do or strik e. The follo wing Belden ca ble number (o r equivalent) is suggested:

Belden No. 9409-18 AWG

Pull the wires to the enclosure from each alarm zone sensor, door contact and exit push button. The following Belden cable number (or equivalent) is suggested:

Belden No. 9407-22 AWG

Pull the wires to th e enclosure from passive exit dev ic e i f t he device requires power, otherwise use cable lis te d above. The following Belden cable number (or equivalent) is suggested:

Belden No. 8741-22 AWG

Baud Rates and Distances

The information in the table below may vary according to the quality of the cable used and the number of panels in a chain.

Table 2. Recommended baud rates

Baud rate Distance

115,200 75 to 100 feet

(23 to 30.5 meters)

(244 to 305 meters)

38,400 1000 to 3000 feet

(305 to 915 meters)

Grounding Connections

It is important to connect each ACU panel on the communication loop individually to earth ground, not to chassis or electrical ground. Grounding is imperative for proper data communications between panels and to ensure full functionality of the lighting and transient voltage protection devices. Voltage protection device are designed into all ACU panels and will channel most transient surges to ground if the panel is properly connected to earth ground. If the panels are not properly connected to ground, the surge suppression devices may not function and data communications may be erratic.

Installing the ACURT Panel

Chapter 2

For proper grounding all ACUs should be connected to earth ground, not to chassis or electrical ground. Cold water pipes or a grounding rod usually make a good earth ground. The grounding wire should be as heavy as possible with as short and straight a run as pos sible . Avoid sharp bends in the wi re beca use a l ar ge power surge might arc across the board.

Recommended Grounding Sources

• Cold Water Earth Ground

• Building Ground

• Electrical Ground

The GE Security system should use a consolidated earth ground, in which the public utilities and the security system ground rods are bonded together. A consolidated earth ground eliminates the problem of step voltage blowout, in which measurable voltage potential exists between earth ground rods, resulting in a current flow path and damage to the system during a lighting strike.

It is recommended that 12 AWG wire be used to connect the earth ground in the shortest and straightest path possible. Avoid sharp turns and use a minimum radius of eight inches (203 mm) for bends. Ground wires should be run separate from other wires and be routed toward the earth. Use of eight-foot (2.4 m) copper clad ground rod is recommended.

Alarm Zone Sensor Wiring

Pull twisted pair of wire (Belden 9407-22 AWG or equivalent) from each alarm zone sensor to the assigned input terminals on the ACURT controller or Remote Module (RIM). (See Terminal Block Tables in each section for alarm zo ne termina tions.) End-o f-line ( EOL) resis tor for the SECURE state i s 1000 ohms. The EOL (End-Of-Line) resistor must be located within the alarm zone sensor enclosure, otherwise the alarm zone circuit will be considered unsupervised.

When 1000 ohms terminators are used, the sensors can be either normally closed contacts or normally open contacts providing the SECURE or inactive state is 1000 ohms. See Figure 6. (Note: A normally open exitpush-button is wired the same as a normally closed alarm).

Network Communications

This section provides guidelines for the network env ironment needed t o support communication betwee n a GE Topaz Server and ACU Ne tworked Intell igen t Controller Field Panels. While it is not possible to address every variable that may exist in a custome r’s network e nviro nment, t his hi ghlight s key ne twork c onside ration s.

The information in the following table is assuming a minimum T opaz server software revision of 1.47 and a minimum ACURT panel firmware revision of 7.13.00

Table 4. Network communications guidelines

Port The TCP/IP port number that the ACU panel listens to is 3000 plus the system WAN number (typically 3001).

Protocol TCP/UDP

All messages are less than 255 bytes. The protocol is a simple command and response protocol with a sequence number retry mechanism.

Timing Polling

Frequency

Server Wait and Delay Time

Server Retry If the server does not receive a response from the panel within the delay time described

Panel Timeout

Timing Calculations

400 milliseconds per ACU panel (fixed)

Wait time for the server to receive a response is 500 milliseconds. Networks should be able to respond to a ping for each panel within 500 milliseconds for optimum performance.

Additional user-configurable delay time of up to 3000 milliseconds can be set for each panel. Typical additional delay is 500 milliseconds.

above, the server will re-send another poll to the panel. The default number of retries is 3. The Retry for each panel can be increased up to 10 by the system administrator. Setting the number of retries above three is usually for testing purposes only, and not intended for normal operation of the system.

If a panel does not receive a correct message from the server within 10 seconds, the panel will no longer respond to the server (a “local panel off-line” condition). This could be caused by a network interruption or incorrect message(s). An example of an incorrect message might be if the network corrupts a server message, resulting in a checksum error. This causes the server to resynchronize communications with the panel. A corresponding message will be reported at the server as a “panel off-line”.

To determine proper panel settings for optimal communication, perform the following calculations for each panel. The total delay, including retries, should be less than 10 seconds (Panel Timeout); The lower the total, the more optimal system performance.

ACU LAN Panel with no downline panels via serial connection:

#Retries X [Delay Time(secs) + Wait Time(secs)] = Total

For example: 3 X [1.2 + 0.5] = 5.1 ACU LAN Panel hosting down-line panels via serial connection:

#Down-line panels X #Retries X [Delay Time(secs) + Wait Time(secs)] = (Total)

For example: 3 x 3 x [0.5 + 0.5] = 9

Bandwidth Dynamics

Network Hops To ensure consistency, the number and distance of hops between a field panel’s LAN port and it’s hosting

It is important that allocated bandwidth remains consistent at all times and is not clamped down (or reduced) during off-hours such as at night or on weekends. Inconsistent or dynamic bandwidth can result in inconsistent on-lin/off-line behavior of field panels, especially if network throughput is marginal.

server should be kept to a minimum.

Download Activity

ACU Comparison

Two types of download activity can occur: Full panel downloads or smaller downloads that occur during routine use of the system. During the download operation, the ACU is fully operational after power-up. Access requests are processed and normally, little delay is experienced. However, large amounts of activity have an adverse effect on system performance.

A full panel download can be initiated manually by the system administrator, or automatically when:

• A panel is powered-up or reset

• A change is made to Access Groups

• A panel definition is modified

• A new reader is defined

• An elevator floor definition is modified.

Note: During a full panel download, the entire card database is downloaded to the panels, however only

those cards which are authorized for access through doors controlled by a panel are downloaded to that panel, thus reducing per-panel traffic.

Following a server restart, all alarm points, relays, time schedules, and other user-programmed settings and parameters are downloaded. The card database is only downloaded if, after a comparison, the server detects that cardholder changes were made at the server but not updated to the ACU.

If an initial download from the server to the ACU is interrupted, the ACU waits for the download to restart.

Note: ACU2X: After a successful download, the ACU2X saves the count of cards in its database. If a

subsequent full card download is interrupted, the panel restores the original pointers so that a backup mechanism exists until a successful download is achieved.

The ACU2XL, ACURS, and ACURT panels are approximately 100 times faster for communication that an ACU2 or ACU2X panel with the LanTronix kit. This is because a panel using the LanTronix kit connects to the kit from the panel serial port that runs at an average of 9600 baud, whereas the ACU@XL, ACURS, and ACURT panels run at the 10 Mbps rate of their built in network card.

Setting IP Address

If the installation requires UL Listing, Network connections cannot be used. One of the simplest ways to set the IP address on the ACURT2 or ACURT4 is with a laptop computer in the

field running the AcuxUtil.exe program. If using the default IP address (SW3 switch 3 on) attach and configure only one ACURT at a time.
