Preparing to Install
System Components
The basic IEI eMerge™ system consists of either an eMerge Network Controller (eNC) with an Access Control Module (ACM) or an eMerge Network Node (eNN, also referred to as an Expansion Node or eMergeEXN) with an Access Control Module (ACM). Please note the Network Controller and the Network Node use the same printed circuit board (the Network Controller includes all the components used on the Network Node), and is sometimes referred to as a combination board. In addition, you can add any one of the three application extension modules shown below.
The Controller/Node module mounts in the top slot of the IEI eMerge cabinet.
The Network Controller includes the IEI eMerge Application, the IEI Security Activity Database, a Linux® operating system and other software components. No PC server is required. For diagrams of the Controller/Node boards see the “Testing and Troubleshooting” section.
Each Network Node handles communications to and from the Controller and the power distribution to other application modules in the eMerge. Each node supports up to seven eMerge Application Extension Modules in any combination.
Up to 32 eMerge Network Nodes may be connected to a network and controlled by a single Network Controller. The IEI eMerge is a stand-alone system that does not require a PC to operate. A PC is required only for system setup, programming, and monitoring.
For UL applications the IEI eMerge™ is a stand-alone system and communication to a monitoring station was not evaluated by UL.
There are 3 types of Application Extension modules:
1. Access module: 2 Weigand reader interfaces, 4 supervised inputs, and 4 relay outputs.
2. Input module: 8 supervised inputs.
3. Output module: 8 relay outputs.
All eMerge Application Extension modules receive power and communications from the Node via the ribbon cable bus. The Node in turn communicates with the Network Controller over the IP network internally on the board.
Power Requirements
IEI eMerge systems must be AC powered using the wall socket transformer provided. The transformer must be powered with 120V AC at 50-60 Hz. Power should come from a separate circuit inside the eMerge cabinet.
Transformer specifications :
Revere Industries. Class 2 Transformer
Model: RT-G2450SL/M
Input: 120VAC 60Hz
Output: 24VAC 50VA
The IEI eMerge includes a DC power supply. The eMerge power supply provides 12V DC at
2.5 amps. The total system current, including all modules, readers, and battery charging current must not exceed 2.5 A.
with an isolated ground and must be wired to the power supply mounted
Document #: 6047001-UL, Rev 3.0
5
Note: Do not run wires from the output of the eMerge power supply outside the eMerge
enclosure.
Reader Power Available from the IEI eMerge
Access Control Module Reader Electrical Rating: 12VDC, 400mA (maximum)
The ACM has two reader ports and the 400mA maximum rating includes both ports. This means you can draw 400mA out of a single reader port or divide the total current between the two ports. For example, you can connect a 100mA reader to port one and a 300mA reader to port two.
You can connect multiple readers to each reader port on the ACM, as long as the total current between both ports does not exceed 400mA. If your reader(s) require more current, or a different voltage, then a separate UL Listed, power-limited access control power supply is required. Refer to the reader manufacturer documentation for power specifications.
Please note, the total system current, including all modules, readers, and battery charging current must not exceed 2.5 A.
Topology Considerations
Issues to consider when selecting a topology for the eMerge installation include simplicity, security, wiring requirements, bandwidth requirements, site distances, current network topology, and the number of security system resources to be wired.
Internet
Corporate LAN
Users and
servers
The simplest topology for IEI eMerge installation.
The simplest topology, shown in the diagram above, will be the most common case for small systems. All users and network resources share the same LAN. This topology is somewhat less secure than the following example using a router.

IEI eMerge
A router with a subnet for IEI eMerge installation.
The diagram above shows a somewhat more complicated but inherently more secure topology. In this case an inexpensive router is used to create a subnet for the security system. The advantages here are increased network security and decreased bandwidth requirements because the corporate LAN does not directly carry traffic between the Nodes and the Controller. The disadvantages include potentially increased wiring, complexity, and router configuration.
Router
Node Installation Considerations
A node is an IEI eMerge without the Network Controller on the combination board. Site layout and distance considerations play a role in deciding where and how many nodes may be required or desirable. For example:
Reader wiring that exceeds 500 feet (152 meters) will require an additional node to reduce the wire lengths to less than that maximum.
Input or output wiring that exceeds 2000 feet (610 meters), while uncommon, will require an additional node to reduce the wire lengths to less than that maximum.
Need for system resources on another floor of a building may make an additional node desirable to simplify wiring.
Need for system resources at opposite ends of a building, or in two separate buildings on one site, may make an additional node(s) desirable to simplify wiring.

Significant distance?
Site layout or distances may make a node installation desirable.
In the diagram above it may be possible to install one IEI eMerge and wire all the system resources to it, but that may require running numerous wire lengths over considerable distances. It may be faster, easier, and less expensive to place an eMerge Network Node at one end or floor of the site and wire all local system resources to it. Communication to the Controller at the remote location can be handled by the local area network wiring already in place.
Note that while a minimum system co-locates the Controller and the Node in the same IEI eMerge cabinet, it is not necessary to do so.
Note: Evaluated by UL for stand-alone operation only.

Installing the IEI eMerge
Installing Additional Modules
The IEI eMerge has 8 slots in the aluminum chassis for installing modules. The topmost slot is reserved for the combination Controller/Node module which handles communications and the power distribution to the application modules in the IEI eMerge. The remaining slots can hold any combination of Access, Input, and Output modules and are numbered 1 through 7 as in the diagram below. Note that the slots are physical mounting points only. The electrical connection is made through the ribbon cable.

Slot numbers
It is recommended that slots 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7 be used first. Spacing inside the eMerge will be easier to work with. Slots 4 and 6 should be used only if more than five modules are required.
Slot and Position Numbers
Slot numbers are determined by the connector on the ribbon cable that is plugged into the
module. The ribbon cable (see diagram below) is a bus and a module’s place on the bus determines the slot number. You will see that it is possible to place a module in physical slot 5 and yet attach ribbon cable connector 6 to the module. If this occurs the module will be in slot 6 on the bus.

Mounting the IEI eMerge Cabinet
The IEI eMerge cabinet has four holes in the back of the cabinet for mounting to the wall as shown in the diagram below.
The IEI eMerge cabinet mounting hole locations.
In addition there are 8 cable minder mounting holes in the cabinet. In the parts bag that came with your eMerge system you will find plastic cable minders that can be inserted into the mounting holes and then turned to secure them.
Mounting hardware should be sufficient to hang a 25 pound (11.34 kg) load. Wall space required is 17” (44 cm) wide by 18” (46 cm) tall. The door opens from the top down. The open door is held in a horizontal position by retaining cables and provides a handy flat work surface.
Document #: 6047001-UL, Rev 3.0
15
Wiring a Battery
The IEI eMerge does not include a pre-mounted battery. However, a battery is required in order to provide sufficient time for an orderly shutdown in case of power failure. If no battery is installed data can be lost.
The battery can be placed on the floor of the cabinet on the left side beneath the power supply. The battery specification is 12V DC, 7 AH, SLA (sealed lead acid). The battery cable must be wired to a 3-pin connector for the Controller/Node board, with the center position empty. See the diagram below. Battery standby power has not been investigated by UL.
Do not connect a battery before external power is supplied. It will immediately power up the Controller/Node board and begin to drain the limited battery power. Once external power is supplied you can connect the battery and it will charge at 12V via the connection with the Controller/Node module.
NOTE: The battery is not meant to function as a backup or to provide standby power but rather only to supply sufficient time to perform an orderly shutdown in case of power failure.
Controller/Node module DC and battery power connectors.
CAUTION!!! DO NOT CONNECT THE BATTERY TERMINALS TO THE POWER SUPPLY!
The power supply has labeled battery connections but it must not be used to connect a battery. See the diagram on the next page. If a battery is installed it must be connected only to the 3-pin battery connector on the Controller/Node module as shown in the diagram above. The battery will charge via this connection.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The battery connection is Non-Power Limited. The battery wires must be routed a minimum of ¼” (.250 inches) away from all other wiring within the enclosure. There are tie-wrap loops built into the rear of the enclosure that can be used to secure the wiring.
