The Net2Air wireless reader modules consist of two parts. The ACU module and the Remote module. The ACU
module is plugged into the reader port of the control unit. The Remote module is located at the distant location
and contains a reader port and a lock relay that replicates the switching of the ACU’s own relay.
A 12V DC power supply is required for the remote module. This may also be used for lock power.
This module repeats the basic input and output functions of the ACU.
The unit has a reader port (8 way plug and RJ45), power input and relay connection. Mount the unit and then
wire in the remote equipment (reader, lock, etc). A suitable 12V DC power supply is also required.

This module plugs directly into the reader port on the ACU. If the relay position is also to be repeated by the
remote module a VOLT FREE loop connection should be made between the relay condition input and the COM
and NO contacts on the controller relay. (See Wiring section)

Operation
NOTE: The module provides the power for this detection circuit. No voltage or diode should be connected at the
ACU control relay or either PCB may be damaged.
The typical range in an ofce environment is 5 yards. Where there is clear ‘line of sight’ across an open space,
(warehouse roof void, car park, etc) a range of 30 yards is possible. (See Wireless limitations)
