Introduction
Access Control Overview
Access Control is the selective restriction to a place or resource such as a property, building or
room to authorized persons and is a matter of who, where, and when. An access control system
is used to automate access control using credentials, credential readers, electric door locks and
other devices. Administrators configure the system to determine who is allowed to enter or exit,
where they are allowed to exit or enter, and when they are allowed to enter or exit. When access
is granted, the door is unlocked for a predetermined time and transaction is recorded. When
access is denied, the door remains locked and the attempted access is recorded. Administrators
can then run reports on the recorded transactions to review activity for selected dates and times.
System Overview
Controller models are available in variety of configurations starting from 1 Door models that
require a separate power supply to 2 & 4 Door models that include an integrated power supply
for the controller and door lock power. Most models can be ungraded after installation with
enhanced features, such as enhanced reporting or more users, using software license keys. All
controllers include tamper and power fault inputs, in and out readers, request to exit and door
position inputs for each door and auxiliary inputs and outputs. All controllers are designed to be
connected to a network using an Ethernet RJ45 connector and configured using the integrated
web server.
Controllers can be configured as either a server or a client. All systems require a server
controller. Some systems have the ability to add additional client controllers to increase the
number of doors, inputs or outputs or control elevators. The software license key is used by the
controller to determine if it is a server or a client. After logging in, the license information about a
can be determined by clicking on the license icon at the bottom of the web page.
Certain models offer a mobile APP that can be used to setup and configure, view logs, lock and
unlock doors and activate threat levels. In addition, some systems also offers a cloud service
that provides a portal where a users or dealer can log into and manage one or many systems
securely.
Client controllers communicate with the server controller via the local area network and are
configured through the server using a web browser on PC connected to the network. Once the
server or client controller is configured, they will function without a network connection or the
PC. The network and PC is only required for setup, configuration and reporting.

Mounting the Metal Enclosure – 2 & 4 Door Systems
The metal enclosure should be mounted vertically on a wall in a secure location. The
temperature in the mounting location must be within the system's specified limits. A minimum of
8 inches of space around all sides of the enclosure is recommended. Knockouts are provided
along the sides and top of the enclosure for routing wires. When running wires through the
knockouts, install bushings or conduit connectors as needed to protect wires from damage.
1. Run all wires to the enclosure location and label the wires according to their use.
2. Remove the enclosure's door by first unlocking the door and removing the door's ground
wire. The door may be lifted out of the hinge slots, which will provide room for mounting
and connecting wires to terminals.
3. Locate the enclosure on the wall and level. Mark the mounting holes on the wall and
remove the enclosure and install anchors appropriate for the type of wall and mounting
conditions. The mounting slots are sized for use with ¼ inch hex head lag screws. Use a
length suitable for the mounting conditions but typically not less than 1 ¾ inch long.
4. DO NOT DRILL the mounting holes while the enclosure is in place on the wall. Dust and
debris from drilling will contaminate and damage the electronics.
5. Partially insert mounting screws into the top two mounting holes and hang the enclosure
on the screws. Check for level, insert the lower screws and tighten all four mounting
screws.
6. Run the wires through the knockout holes and connect to the appropriate terminals (see
following sections of the manual for wiring details). Note: Tie down loops are located in
the enclosure and are used to provide strain relief for field wiring connections to the
controller.
7. Reinstall the door and reconnect the door's ground wire.
NOTICE: This equipment includes electronic components that
are sensitive to static electricity. Make sure to discharge by
touching an earth ground before handling this equipment.
NOTE: When locating the controller, choose a centrally located,
secure, clean and dry area. Avoid mounting the controller within
6 fee (2 meters) of any equipment that generates electrical
interference.

2 & 4 Door System Features and Mounting Locations
Tamper Detection
A tamper switch is mounted in the enclosure and is prewired to the controller. If the enclosure's
door is opened, the tamper switch will activate and signal the controller. The controller can be
configured using Event Actions to perform a system backup, activate an auxiliary output or send
an email notification when a tamper input is detected.
System Power
The enclosure includes a 12 VDC 6 Amp (75W) power supply and Power Module. The power
module provides power to charge a 12V sealed lead acid battery (SLA, not included) that is
used for battery backup operation, power for door locks and power for the main controller and
accessories such as readers and keypads. NOTE: A indicator light on the exterior of the
enclosure is illuminated when the system is plugged in and AC power is present.
Power Fault Detection
When the power power module detects an AC power loss, it will automatically change operation
over to battery backup and signals the controller that a power fault has occurred. The
controller's fault input can be configured using Event Actions to perform a system backup,
activate an auxiliary output or send an email notification. This is prewired at the factory.
Door Lock Power
On models that include power for the door locks, the power module has the ability to supply
either 12 or 24 VDC power to the door locks. This can be set individually for each of the four
outputs. LED's indicate if the output power is set to 12 VDC (GREEN LED), 24 VDC (AMBER
LED) or if the output is overloaded (RED LED). NOTE: The maximum output current for each
of the four outputs is 375 mA @ 24V or 700 mA @ 12V.
Installation Instructions for 2 & 4 Door Systems with Integrated Power Supply - July, 2019 Page 8
Fire Release Input
On models that include power for the door locks, the power module is prewired with a
normally closed Fire Release input. If the input is opened, power will be disconnected from the
connected door locks. This can be used to unlock fail safe door locks. Note: The power
module and/or access control system is not listed as and can not be used as a fire
warning system.
Battery Connection
The enclosure provides space and charging for one 12V sealed lead acid battery. The power
module monitors the battery to prevent over charging and excessive discharging. When primary
AC power is lost, the battery will provide standby power until the battery voltage reaches
approximately 11 VDC at which point the system will shutdown until main power is restored.
The amount of time standby power is supplied depends on the initial battery voltage and the
current draw of the devices connected to the system.
Battery Warnings
Use caution when installing the battery. Incorrect use can damage the battery, power
module or can cause shock or fire.
Connect main AC power before installing the battery. Depending on the condition of the
battery, the system may power up when connecting the battery without an AC power
connection.
Only connect one battery to the power module. Do not connect multiple batteries in
parallel or in series. This will damage the system and void the warranty.
The battery charger provides a maximum charge rate of approximately 900mA and will
maintain the charge on a fully charged battery. Ensure that this does not exceed the
battery manufacture's rating.
Replace the backup battery every 2 to 3 years.
Properly dispose of old batteries.
