INTRODUCTION
The AP-3 is designed for a broad range of access control applications. Its wireless design and small size make it easily adaptable for a variety of access control requirements. Typically, the AP-3 is used to control a door strike, barrier gate, automatic gate or automatic door operator.
The AP-3 contains a high-gain UHF receiver which uses an external antenna to pick up signals from up to 250 feet away. Up to 339 Linear MegaCode® Format transmitters and one Model MGT safety edge transmitter can easily be programmed into the AP-3’s memory. The AP-3 will retain its memory, even without power.
Two dry contact relay outputs are standard. One relay is the ACCESS RELAY, which triggers for two seconds each time a programmed transmitter is activated. This relay output connects to the pushbutton or radio input of the access device. The second relay is the OBSTACLE RELAY, which triggers for two seconds when an obstacle signal is sent from a Model MGT safety edge transmitter. This relay output connects to the obstacle input of the access device. An OPEN REQUEST input terminal is supplied for hardwire activation of the access device with an external pushbutton or keyswitch.
The AP-3 can be powered from 12-24 Volts AC or DC. The Form C relay outputs can switch up to 1 Amp each. An EARTH GROUND terminal is provided as an optional connection for maximum lightning and static protection.
Five special utility functions can be displayed by pressing the pound (#) key then the
digits 1-5. The utility functions display the status of the obstacle transmitter, the number of empty programming locations, the total number of transmitters programmed, first available programming location and firmware version number.
The AP-3 can fully supervise the MGT safety edge transmitter. The system monitors the MGT transmitter for hourly status reports, tamper signals and low battery signals. A beep will sound every 5 seconds if a fault occurs and the trouble source can be displayed by pressing pound (#)-1. For a trouble indication, a transmitter must be activated twice to trigger the ACCESS RELAY if a supervisory condition exists on the MGT transmitter.
