1.0 Introduction
is manual contains information regarding the basic installation, wiring and con guration of the
e3 eMerge browser-based access control systems. Systems are available in a space-e cient and
durable plastic housing or in a heavy-duty steel cabinet featuring a self-contained battery back-up
with a supervised power supply. All systems use the same control panel layout and system wiring.
1.1 Access Control Overview
Access control systems are designed to monitor and control access throughout a building or
restricted area. An access control system involves the use of an access device (card, PIN code,
etc.), which is presented at an entry device (reader/keypad) to gain access. When access is granted,
a door is unlocked for a pre-programmed amount of time and a transaction is recorded in a
database for reporting or tracking purposes.
1.2 System Overview
Systems are available in a variety of models starting with one door, two reader con gurations.
Models can be upgraded with expanded capabilities using optional software license keys. e
e3 eMerge includes Ethernet support, an integrated web server and Power over Ethernet (PoE)
support.

3.0 Installing the Control Panel
3.1 Mounting the Compact Enclosure
e housing is designed to accommodate the necessary wiring connections for most installations.
Note: This device
complies with Part
15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject
to the following two
conditions: (1) this device
may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this
device must accept any
interference received,
including interference
that may cause
undesired operation.
Note: Choose a centrally
located, secure, clean
and dry area near an
AC power source. Avoid
mounting the panel within
6 feet of any equipment
that generates electrical
interference.
Caution: This equipment
includes electronic
components that are
highly sensitive to
static electricity. Please
discharge by touching
an earth ground before
installing or handling this
equipment.
Note: The compact
enclosure will not
accommodate a backup
battery. If using a backup
battery, a separate
housing must be installed
or use PoE supply with
suitable UPS backup.
e compact enclosure is optimized to run wires under the back panel and thru the knockouts
shown in Figure 3.1 and Figure 3.2. e enclosure should be mounted vertically on a wall, in a
secure location within normal temperature and humidity levels.
Installing the Panel
1. Run all necessary wires to the panel location.
2. Remove the enclosure’s cover by removing the two screws in the front of the housing.
3. Level the enclosure on a sturdy wall. Mark the mounting holes with a pencil.
4. Partially insert screws into the top two mounting holes and hang the enclosure on the screws.
5. Pull all wires through the knock-out holes in the enclosure. Label each wire according to its use.
6. Recheck for level, insert the two lower screws, and tighten all four mounting screws.

Note: Choose a centrally
located, secure, clean
and dry area near an
AC power source. Avoid
mounting the panel within
6 feet of any equipment
that generates electrical
interference.
Caution: This equipment
includes electronic
components that are
highly sensitive to

installing or handling this
equipment.
Note: Tie down loops are
located in the enclosure
and used to provide

3.2 Mounting the Metal Enclosure
e metal enclosure is designed to accommodate one or two 12VDC 7Ah backup batteries and
the necessary wiring connections for most installations. Conduit knock-outs are provided on all
sides of the enclosure. e enclosure should be mounted vertically on a wall in a secure location
within normal temperature levels. A minimum of 12 inches of space around all sides of the
enclosure is recommended.
Installing the Panel
1. Run all necessary wires to the panel location.
2. Remove the enclosure’s cover by unlocking the door and disconnecting the ground wire. e
door may be lifted out of the hinge slots.
3. Remove the metal cabinet knock-outs required for wire entry and install bushing or conduit
connectors as needed to protect wires from damage.
4. Level the enclosure on a sturdy wall. Mark the mounting holes with a pencil. ( e cabinet
can be vertically or horizontally mounted depending on space requirements.)
5. Partially insert screws into the top two mounting holes and hang the enclosure on the screws.
6. Pull all wires through the knock-out holes in the enclosure. Label each wire according to its use.
7. Recheck for level, insert the two lower screws, and tighten all four mounting screws.
8. Re-install the door and connect the ground wire to the door.

4.0 System Power
e system panel requires a 12VDC, 2A supply (not included). For UL installations, a Linear
Plug in Power supply (PIP) is required (see below). e system may also be powered by a high
Power over Ethernet (PoE) injector using an optional Linear PoE module.
♦ Linear 12VDC/24W (2A) PIP; P/N 0-291312RU
Note: For PoE
applications only use
UL294B listed PoE
power supplies.
Caution: A 12VDC power
supply MUST be used.
Incorrect voltage will
damage the product and
void the warranty.
Note: Power should only
be applied to the system
when all connections are
secured and tested.
♦ Linear 12VDC/60W (5A) PIP; P/N 0-299177RU (required for UL installations)
♦ Linear e3 PoE module; P/N 620-100159 (requires additional high power PoE injector). PoE
is not supported for installations requiring UL294.
4.1 Power Connection for Systems using Compact
Enclosure
Power Supply Connection
1. Connect 12VDC from the included power supply to the +12V and GND input terminals
on the panel. Note: e3 eMerge systems require a 12VDC, 2 amp Class 2 power supply. Incorrect
voltage will damage the product and void the warranty.
2. Connect an earth ground to the green earth ground lead provided in the enclosure.
3. Turn on the power supply. If using a PIP for the power supply, it must be plugged into a
dedicated receptacle that is not controlled by a switch.
MINIMUM
Cable Specifi cations for
power: Use a minimum
of 16 AWG Belden (2
