Series 3
Serial I/O
16-input Interface Panel
Features
• 16 programmable inputs; 2 programmable
relay outputs
• AES 128/256 bit data encryption
• UL 294 recognized, CE compliant, FCC,
RoHS
• Open Architecture: High performance, reliable
platform enables use of hardware with Mercury
OEM partners software solutions
• Easy Expansion: Adds functionality and
flexibility to existing access control systems
• Enhanced Security: Embedded crypto memory
chip provides secured layer of encryption to
protect sensitive data
• Versatile Interoperability: Same reliable
interface and identical footprint as Series
2 Mercury IO modules, enabling seamless
upgrades for existing deployments
The new Authentic Mercury MR Series 3 Serial Input/
Output (SIO) modules enable system expansion of
Authentic Mercury intelligent controllers as part of
Mercury’s distributed architecture. The enhanced
modules oer an improved processor and increased
memory, plus feature an embedded crypto memory
chip that provides a secured layer of encryption
to onboard sensitive data. Built on the Authentic
Mercury open platform, Series 3 modules provide the
necessary flexibility for OEMs, channel partners and
end customers to choose the controller configuration
that best fits their needs.
• Configurable input parameters
• Initiates commands by operator, by
time schedules, or by events
• Allows for easy and compact
clustering of up to 16 uniquely
monitored devices
• RS-485 host connectivity
The MR16IN can be used for a variety of applications,
including status annunciation and alarm monitoring
applications such as lighting, heating/cooling, door
and elevator control. Devices can also be activated by
the condition of selected system devices, either locally
or regionally, without host intervention.
The panel is dedicated to point control and monitoring,
enables OEMs to support 16 general-purpose input
circuits. The circuits can be individually set for
sensitivity ranges, timing parameters (normallyopen or normally-closed operations) and end-ofline resistance values. They can also be declared
supervised and non-supervised. Two programmable
relay outputs are configurable for fail-safe or failsecure operation, supporting “On,” “O,” “Pulse” and
“Repeating Pulse” commands.
The MR16IN Series 3 is the latest generation door
interface module for Authentic Mercury intelligent
controllers, the platform of choice for customers
seeking open architecture access control solutions.
Give your access control system wings.

Application Notes
The Mercury MR16IN is an essential
component that supports Mercury’s
flexible, building-block approach to
access control system design. The MR16IN
provides the capacity to link, control and
respond to an array of sensors. With its
RS-485 connectivity, the MR16IN can be
clustered or distributed to best suit each
installation environment.
