the processor is functioning.
A new unit requires approximately 30 seconds after initial power up to self congure.
The unit will not operate correctly until this function has completed.

Net2Air wireless communication
Net2Air wireless control units are fully compatible with the hard wired Net2 range but there are several important
dierences that need to be understood before installing wireless equipment. The most important of these is the
location of the control units and their bridge components.
These principles are therefore explained rst before we move on to the control unit itself.
The access control unit connects to the Net2 software running on the PC using Paxton Net2Air proprietary wireless
technology. A Net2Air bridge enables communication from the Net2 software to the Paxton wireless products.
Radio signals do not always behave as you might expect. For example, a cell phone that displays a full signal on
one part of the site will lose signal completely only a few feet away. These problems can be addressed by using the
Net2 site surveyor kit (690-200-US)

Radio frequency
This product should not be installed within 10 feet of other wireless equipment operating on a 2.4Ghz frequency.
To ensure optimum performance other wireless networks should avoid WiFi channels 11, 12 and 13 to reduce the
possibility of interference.
A Net2 nano ACU or a Hands free interface cannot be installed in a Metal cabinet as this would block the RF signal
used for the Net2Air wireless technology.

Net2 nano PC / server operation
Data transfer with wireless technology requires far more control and error checking than with a hard wired data
line connection. Net2 classic runs with a server that originates and controls all the communications on the data
line. This would not be ecient in a wireless environment.
We therefore give the Nano controller the active role. Each Nano is always active and transmits data bursts
(including a regular Heartbeat) every few seconds. The Net2 server then acts upon these requests for service.
The PC requires at least one Net2Air bridge to communicate with a Nano. This can be a local Net2Air USB bridge
(only one per system) and/or multiple Net2Air Ethernet bridge units connected to the PC via a TCP/IP connection.
There is NO Net2 nano detection function. It is recognised that there could be security issues if the wireless
units were detectable from outside the site. During installation, a Nano unit binds with a Net2Air bridge which will
then only talk to registered units. The Server conguration utility also has an ' Enable commissioning' mode which
can be turned o to inhibit Nano units being added.
An entry is then made on the Doors screen and a special icon is used to denote the wireless connection.

Control unit installation
This unit is for Indoor use only
The ACU shall be installed within the protected premises as both the power and lock wiring is present at the PCB.
A Tamper alarm input is provided on the PCB - See Input/Output Wiring
Where the ACU is being installed within a plastic enclosure, the hub must be connected to the conduit before it is
connected to the plastic enclose. This is to eliminate the potential of any excessive torque loading being applied
to the plastic enclosure during installation.
This housing should be xed to the surface with suitable fasteners; screws and wall plugs are provided for this in
the tting kit. Also provided are cable ties to secure the cabling and a smaller securing screw for the lid.
Wire the components to the Access Control Unit (ACU) as shown on the rst page.
Press the exit button or in the absence of an exit button, short the 0V and exit terminals together.
The congured lock output LED will come on and the lock should release.
The unit will continue to operate in a 'standalone' mode if the PC is shut down. Any Events that occur during this
period are stored in the unit and the PC is updated when it comes back on line.
