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.

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)
57,600 800 to 1000 feet
(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.
13
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)

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.
Installing the ACURT Panel

Hardware Installation Guide

Installing Server External Modem

When using Dial-up communications to an ACURT field panel you must install an external modem at the server. The Topaz Software will ONLY support the (USR) US Robotics 33.6 faxmodem or the 56K V.90 faxmodem, Sportster modem models 0701 (005686-03) or 0459 (00083907).
Model information located on the back of the modem near the FCC logo sticker, there are some numbers, model #0459 and Sportster 0083907 (the current model is 000839-09 from the USR web site). The 56K V.90 faxmodem can also be used. The number on the back is model #0701 Sportster 005686-03 (USR5686E from the web site) .
Note: DO NOT use internal modem cards or external modems without dipswitchs.
Information on these modems may be found at the US Robotics web site, www.usr.com. Click on U.S./ Canada (English), then click Search Site tab at the top of the page, then type sportster 005686-03 or sportster 00568 into the search field.
External Modem Setup
The switches on t he bac k of t he modem must be con figur ed wit h swit ches 5 and 6 set to the UP position, all others should be in the down position as shown to the right.
Note: You will NOT need to install the modem or drivers in Windows.
When you power up the external modem LEDs AA, TR, and CS should be illuminated, all other should be off.
Software Setup
After installing the modem make sure dial-up panels are configured in the Topaz server software as SCP Dial­Up, set to 9600 baud, No parity and Active.
From Control and Service Functions, you must setup the modem. Choose Initialize - Test Modem and Serial Port and say Go. The modem LEDs SD and RD should blink several time. This sends the correct AT commands necessary for the modem to work correctly.
Note: It is recommended you use a minimum of two dial-up ports/modems for data and alarms. As the system grows or as
the alarm load increases, it may be necessary to use more Server modems to handle the traffic.
The Topaz systems administrator will also need to know the ACURT2 or ACURT4 Controller’s Serial Number.

Troubleshooting

Be sure the external dial-up modem at the server is connected correctly. Check the dial-up modem board in the ACURT to make sure it is firmly install on the pins J1 and no pins are
bent over. Make sure the ACURT modem board is properly grounded. You may have to clear memory on the ACURT board.
Note: Be aware this action will leave the ACURT without any configuration.

Notes:
Factory default is no jumper on P2. The reader uses 24 VDC in this configuration.
Use a quality 24 VDC linear type power supply; the minimum current requirement is 2 Amperes per 5375 reader. See page 5 of 20, #9 of the Parts List in the HID installation manual.
The ground of the reader and the ground of the power supply must be common. Do this by connecting 0V (negative) of the linear power supply to TB2-3 or TB5-3 of the ACURT2 or TB12-3 or TB15-3 of the ACURT4.
Use of a tamper switch is optional; if one is used, it is not internal and requires a wired alarm zone.
Pins 3 and 4 jumpers are use in conjunction with the settings on SW 1 and SW 5 to provide a Wiegand format output. See Mode Chart table below.

Hardware Installation Guide

Overview

The Remote Input Module (RIM) provides the interface from the ACURT controller and additional alarm sensors. The RIM consists of the electronic circuit board, and the screw terminal connector board, connected together by a ribbon cable. The RIM can be installed in its own tampered enclosure.
Each RIM provides 16 supervised inputs, 3 unsupervised inputs, and 2 relay outputs (dry contact relays (SPDT) Single Pole Double Throw).
The Remote Input Module connects to the expansion port on the ACURT. The ACURT2 and ACURT4 expansion port can support four (4) remote modules (RIM, RRM).
Note: The Remote Input Module requires optional 24 VDC (±15%) power supply.
Each of the 16 alarm inputs is supervised as 4-states: Alarm, Secure, Open, and Short. A pair of 1 K ohm resistors, at the sensor end of each alarm circuit, ensures that the line resistance is typically
1 K ohm when the alarm is in the secure state.
Table 58. Alarm Zone Resistance Value
Zone Input
State
Secure 1000 1000
Active 2000 500
Open > 50000 > 50000
Short < 50 < 50
WARNING: Do not use the ACURT controller, Remote Input Module (RIM) or Remote Relay Module (RRM) to switch
any voltage above 30 volts. Failure to heed this WARNING: can cause death, personal injury, or damage to unit(s).

Field Testing The RIM

Field Wiring Test

After making all connec tions and prior to connec ting the ri bbon cable to the RIM, the foll owing tests should be made. Connections should already be completed at the ACURT and external power supply.
Table 73. RIM Test Points and Voltages
From To Voltage Tolerance
GND +24V + 24 VDC 3.5 VDC
T+ T- + 4.0 VDC * 0.5 VDC
R+ R- + 2.5 VDC * 0.5 VDC
+24V Bldg. Gnd. 24 VDC 3.5 VDC
GND Bldg. Gnd. 0 VDC 0.5 VDC
T+ Bldg. Gnd. Less than 6.0 VDC N/A

T- Bldg. Gnd. Less than 6.0 VDC N/A
R+ Bldg. Gnd. Less than 6.0 VDC N/A
R- Bldg. Gnd. Less than 6.0 VDC N/A
Notes:
After the first reader is connected, these voltages will modulate due to data on the line.
Most digital voltmeters should indicate about 2.0 VDC.

Power-Up Self Test

The Remote Input Module should always be tested after installation. The indicators for the RIM are the red LEDs located on the componen t board. See Figur e 29 for t he locat ions of LEDs. The LEDs wi ll light as shown in Table 74.

Replacing The RIM

This procedure enables the user to replace the RIM.
WARNING: Be sure to remove all power from the RIM to avoid personal injury or damage to the unit.
1. Remove all power from the RIM (from auxiliary power source).
2. Open RIM cover to access the wiring.
CAUTION: The printed circuit boards or modules contain static-susceptible devices. Prior to handling them, be sure to
follow the two rules below to avoid damaging these devices by static electricity:
Handle all static-sensitive components at a static-safeguarded work area.
Transport all static-sensitive components in static-shield containers or packages.
3. Note the orientation and disconnect the ribbon cable on the RIM.
4. Note the positions of the DIP switches (Figure 29). Set the switch settings on the replacement PCB to the required positions.
5. Note the revision level of PROM U3 located on the RIM. See Figure 29. The revision letter should be the same or higher.
6. Release the board from the standoffs by squeezing the pit of the standoff with a pair of needle nose pliers, then pull (gently) the RIM circuit board from each of the snap-in standoffs and remove the circuit board.
7. Position the replacement circuit board on the snap-in standoffs until the circuit board firmly rests in place on the standoffs.
8. Reconnect the ribbon cable removed in step 3 and set DIP switches.
9. Perform "Power-up Self-Test on the RIM" and "Normal Operation Test on the RIM" found in Section 8 of this manual.

Optional Remote Relay Module

The Remote Relay Module (RRM) provides eight (8) single pole double throw (SPDT) and eight (8) double pole double throw (DPDT) dry contact relays.
Each relay is rated 2 Amps at 30 VDC. Three LEDs provide heartbeat feedback and online status. Nineteen hardware controlled LEDs provide
communication, power, and relay status. Two unsupervised inputs are available for power fault and cabinet tamper. The Remote Relay Module connects to the expansion port on the ACURT. The ACURT expansion port can
support four (4) remote modules (RIM, RRM).
Note: The Remote Relay Module requires optional 24 VDC (±15%) power supply.
WARNING: Do not use the ACURT controller, Remote Input Module (RIM) or Remote Relay Module (RRM) to switch
any voltage above 30 volts. Failure to heed this WARNING can cause death, personal injury, or damage to unit(s).
