Installation Manual

Product overview

The M3000 is a user-configurable controller enclosure for use with the Picture Perfect, Secure Perfect, and
Facility Commander Wnx (FCWnx) access control and alarm management software platforms. The M3000
provides distributed processing for the interface of access control readers, keypads, alarm inputs and outputs
back to a host system computer. Distributed processing from the PXNplus CPU board within the M3000
enclosure allows the controller to operate independent of the host system computer with the majority of access
control and alarm monitoring decisions made locally at the controller.

The PXNplus CPU employs an embedded Linux operating system, with a full TCP/IP stack. This operating
system permits the PXNplus to be network configured for DHCP/DNS or fixed (static) IP addressing. The
PXNplus configuration is set by configuring web pages that are served by the PXNplus internal web server.
Diagnostics and log files are also served up using web pages from the PXNplus CPU. The PXNplus CPU
supports persistent database storage. When the PXNplus is connected to a host, information about readers,
alarms, outputs, schedules, and badges are automatically downloaded to the CPU. The PXNplus stores this
information in nonvolatile memory so, in case of a power failure and a loss of communications to the host, the
PXNplus CPU will return to operation as previously configured when the power is restored to the CPU. When
the host becomes available, the PXNplus will automatically upload stored transactions and refresh its database.

The M3000 enclosure has five slots for controller boards. All boards plug into the controller backplane making
field configuration and maintenance easy and economical. Screw terminal connector plugs for all wire
connections eliminate field maintenance wiring errors. The M3000 enclosure can be wall mounted or rack
mounted. The optional M3000 rack mounting kit allows the M3000 to mount directly to a standard 19” EIA
rack. The M3000 will occupy 9U within a rack.

The M3000 consists of the following components:

• Enclosure (all steel cabinet with key lock and tamper-switch-protected door)

• Power supply (110/230 input/12 VDC output 6 amp), 50/60 Hz

• Battery backup (12 AH gel-cell)

• Power/Communications board

• One of the following PXNplus CPU boards:

• PXNplus CPU board for Picture Perfect (part number 521216001)

• PXNplus CPU board for Facility Commander Wnx (part number 5521216002)

Note: Part numbers for M3000 assemblies that include a PXNplus CPU Board are M3PPMPP (for Picture Perfect)

and M3PPMSP (for Secure Perfect and FCWnx).

Options for the M3000 include:

• Reader Processing board: 2RP, 2SRP, or 8RP

• Digital Input (DI) board: 20DI

• Digital Output (DO) board: 16DO or 16DOR

The items received in your shipment depend on the items ordered. Inspect the package and contents for visible
damage. If any components are damaged or missing, do not use the unit; contact the supplier immediately. If
you need to return the unit, you must ship it in the original box.

Getting started roadmap

The following is a basic outline for installing and setting up your M3000 system. Some steps may have been
done for you depending on what you ordered. Some steps are optional, depending on the additional equipment
you plan to use. These steps are noted.

CAUTION: Do not apply power to any component until the installation is complete. Damage to components may

occur if power is incorrectly applied.

1. Determine the cable clamps needed and obtain them prior to starting the installation.

During the installation, remember to:

• Label all connections/cables for ease of maintenance.

• Leave enough slack in the wiring so the cables can be “dressed.” This minimizes interference
during board removal or replacement.

2. Unpack your system. See Product overview on page 2.

3. Mount the enclosure. See Mounting on page 11.

4. Connect AC power to the power supply. See Connecting the AC input power to the M3000 on page 19.

Observing noise prevention procedures

Signal transmission

• Where practical, keep cables well separated from each other. Separate power cables from signal cables.

• Keep the break-out at the ends of signal cables as short as possible.

• Ground all shield drain wire(s) at the M3000 controller using the grounding studs provided inside the

cabinet enclosure.

• For communication cables between controllers, ground shield to the upstream controller only.

CAUTION: Do not ground both cable ends.

Cable routing

Keep all cabling at least one foot (30.5 cm) away from any power line or other AC voltage source.

Exercise caution when locating cables and M3000 components near any other equipment that may cause
electrical interference (noise). Examples of electrical and electro-magnetic noise sources are:

• Fluorescent lighting and neon fixtures.

• Power distribution panels, including wiring, transformers, generators, and alternators.

• Motors that drive machinery, such as air conditioners, elevators, escalators, large blowers, and

machine tools. Electromagnetic equipment such as degaussers, magnetic chucks, etc. Control
equipment (relays) for machinery and other switching devices that carry or switch large currents.

• Radio and television receivers and transmitters, signal generators and intercom systems, radar

transmitting equipment.

• Arc welders, electrodischarge machiner,y and related equipment.

• RF induction heaters.

Cable length

• Minimize long parallel cable runs since they increase the likelihood of interference between signal

cables and electrical interference sources.

• Avoid excess cable length between the M3000 and optional equipment, such as readers and digital

outputs, to reduce signal degradation due to external effects.

Installation planning and mounting

Mounting

Be sure to read the mounting and handling guidelines below before beginning to mount the controller.

Mounting and handling guidelines

Comply with the following guidelines:

• Locate the host computer and the M3000 controller in areas secure from any disruption to data
communications or tampering.

• Clean and clear all mounting areas of corrosive gases and airborne metallic particles. Avoid installing
near photocopiers due to contamination from toner particles.

• Protect the M3000 from hazardous (high) voltages.

• Mount the M3000 on a vertical surface with at least six inches (15.2 centimeters) clearance on all four
sides to support thermal air cooling.

• Locate the M3000 in a place that provides a dedicated AC earth ground. The M3000 must be earth
grounded.

• Keep interior and exterior housing of all M3000 enclosures and other components free of wire
remnants.

• Avoid temperatures outside the range specified for the M3000 operating environment. Do not leave
boards or other components in direct sunlight.

Power setup

This section describes how to connect AC power to the M3000

Connecting the AC input power to the M3000

Note: 1. A readily accessible disconnect device shall be incorporated in the building installation wiring.

2. The maximum rated overcurrent protection for this device is 20 A in North America, and 16 A in Europe,

Australia, and New Zealand.

The power supply included is a 12 VDC power supply with a 6 amp current rating. This power supply is
installed in the enclosure and wired to the Power/Communications board for you.

WARNING: Make sure electrical power is removed prior to making connections to the controller. Personal

injury or death can occur if electrical power is not removed.

To apply AC power to the power supply:

19

1. Follow all state, local, and national electrical codes.

2. Using the knockouts provided in the sides and back of the enclosure, connect AC power and earth
ground to the terminals provided inside the enclosure. See Figure 6, Wiring AC power through the

terminal block on page 20.

Controller earth grounding (AC grounding) is a critical element for proper operation.

To test the AC power ground:

1. Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between the M3000 ground stud and a known good earth
ground (metal water pipe or building structural steel frame).

2. A resistance value greater than 50 ohms indicates poor AC ground.

Installation Manual

Installing the battery backup, AC fail, and low battery

The battery backup acts as a temporary power supply to the M3000 when AC power is lost. The battery
included with the enclosure is 12 VDC with a 12 AH current rating. It will need to be wired to the power
supply. Refer to Chapter 10, Troubleshooting, maintenance & support on page 151 for battery removal and
installation procedures.

CAUTION: Make sure AC input and battery backup power is disconnected prior to installing CPU, reader, DI, and

DO boards.

To install the battery

1. Unpack the battery from the shipping box.

2. Place the battery inside the enclosure below the power supply as shown in Figure 6 on page 20.

3. Remove the protective cover from the positive terminal of the battery.

4. Connect the battery leads from the power supply: Black to negative terminal and Red to positive

terminal of the battery. Figure 8 shows the wiring between the battery and the power supply.

CAUTION: Replace battery with lead acid sealed 12 AH only.

Wiring AC power fail

The power supply includes a relay that monitors and signals the loss of AC power. The power fail line is low
during normal operation, and goes high when AC input power is lost.

If this option is used, connect the power supply AC power fail NC and COM terminals to the Power/
Communications Board connector J6, pin 6 (ground) and pin 8 (AC power fail input). See Figure 8 on page 23.

Wiring low battery detect

The power supply includes a low battery relay to detect and signal a low battery condition (11 VDC or less).

If this option is used, connect the power supply low battery NC and NO terminals to the 20DI Board connector
J2, pins 1 and 2. Install 2K resistors at power supply terminals. See Figure 8 on page 23.

Stops the application and puts the board into maintenance mode which allows the board to
be removed. Since the PXNplus board runs an operating system just like a computer, it
must be shut down correctly. Shorting JP3 shuts down the operating system/application of
the board. JP3 is like using the “Shut down” feature on your computer.

To properly restart the board use both JP3 and JP6. First, short JP3 to stop the
application, then short JP6 to restart (reset) the board.

Returns the configuration to the factory defaults:

• Primary Connection Type: Ethernet

• IP Address: 192.168.6.6

• Mask: 255.255.255.0

• Gateway: 192.168.6.1

Short JP4 for a minimum of five seconds.

Reboots the CPU board without properly shutting down the application. The PXNplus board
runs an operating system just like a computer. Shorting JP6 is like pressing the Off button
on your computer without using the “Shut down” feature. The controller shuts down but not
in a clean way.

To properly restart the board use both JP3 and JP6. First, short JP3 to stop the
application, then short JP6 to restart (reset) the board.

CAUTION: Earlier lines of controllers sometimes required the “wrap plug” to force the CPU into maintenance

mode. DO NOT use the wrap plug on the PXNplus CPU board. To properly set the controller into
maintenance mode, short JP3 (Shutdown Request) for about 5 seconds until DS7 turns on. DS2 and

LED indicators

LEDs on the PXNplus CPU board

The LED state depends on which state the controller is in. There are two main modes with several substates:

• Maintenance mode: indicates the state of the controller before any application is running. There are

two maintenance mode states:

• Boot mode - indicates the bootloader is running and loading, verifying and invoking the run-time
images. This is a status LED only.

• OS (operating system) maintenance mode - the controller enters this mode after boot mode
when it first comes up and when it is never configured before. Holding JP3 will force the
controller into this mode.

• Normal operation mode: indicates the state of the controller after the application is downloaded. Use
the Integrated Configuration Tool to select the application. During this mode, the following additional
states can occur:

• Controller offline: indicates the controller has lost communication with the host.

• Address received: indicates the controller received a message from the host.

• Badge read OK: indicates the controller decoded a badge read and determined that it was a valid

badge.

• Waiting for database

• Restore defaults requested: indicates Jumper J3 was shorted. This requests that the defaults be

restored. The defaults are listed on page 119.

• Shutdown requested: indicates Jumper J6 was shorted. This requests that the application shut

down so that a hard reset can be done.

• eFlash image save: indicates that the newly loaded image from the eFlash transfer is being saved

into the FLASH. This is an activity indicator only.

• Persistence: indicates that the controller is operating without a host. In this mode, the controller is

operating standalone until communication is re-established with the host.
Items to note:

• Upon restoration of communications with the host, the host automatically sets badge status for
Anti-passback and Time and Attendance to neutral for all badges on the controller.

• Unknown badges cannot be learned because the controller is not online with the host. The
Unknown badge transactions are mislabeled in the history upload as transaction type Learn
Timeout instead of Unknown Badge.

• Flash write: indicates that the controller is storing database records into the Flash file system.
This is an activity indicator only.

• Watchdog failure mode: An internal thread failed. Details about the failure were logged
according to the log settings. The micro performs a complete reboot after this failure.

Installation Manual

Introduction

The M3000 controller supports four types of reader processing boards: 2RP, 2SRP, and the 8RP. Only one type
can be used at one time, for a maximum of:

• Four 2RP boards (for support of up to eight readers),

• Four 2SRP boards (for support of up to eight supervised readers), or

• Two 8RP boards (for support of up to 16 readers).

2RP board

Introduction

Each 2RP reader board provides two reader ports, four unsupervised DIs (two door alarm, two REX inputs),
two reader LED outputs, two door strike DO relays, two auxiliary DO relays, and two alarm shunt relays used
to shunt out external alarm inputs. Please note the following:

• Each 2RP board is limited to only one type of reader technology: Wiegand, Strobed, F/2F, and
Supervised F/2F. In addition, both readers connected to the board must use the same voltage.

• In Supervised F/2F mode, the exit request and door alarm contact wiring is terminated at the reader.

• Each reader, DI point, Aux DO, and Exit DI on a 2RP board is addressed differently, depending on the
host system you are using. Refer to the Tab le 18 and Tab le 19 .

• If alarm points are not available on the reader, use alarm points on the controller.

Figure 19 below for details.

Figure 19.Installing 2RP resistor packs

Reader processing boards

Wiring readers

If wiring a 12V reader that uses 5V data lines, note the following conditions before continuing:

• Set the reader voltage (JP1) to 5 V.

• Wire the Reader power lead to the Power output port (J6) on the Power/Communications board instead
of wiring it to the 2RP board.

To wire a reader:

1. Mount the reader. Refer to the manual that came with your reader for specific mounting instructions.

2. Run cable from the reader to the controller. Bring each reader cable through the appropriate knockout
hole in the controller enclosure. Allow some slack wire for servicing the cables and for plugging cable
into an adjacent slot for troubleshooting.

3. Remove eight inches of insulating material from the cable. Unwrap shielding and tie all shields
together. Connect the communications cable shield to the ground nut adjacent to the cable entrance
knockout of the cabinet enclosure. For more details, see Figure 73, Typical installation using shielded

cable/drain wire - outside and inside the enclosure on page 144.

4. Place the appropriate wires to the appropriate screw terminal on the 2RP reader board. Refer to the
reader wiring diagrams in this section. Pairing of cables is very important.

Chapter 5

53

Important: For 12V readers using cable runs over 500 feet, you must install pull-up resistors (470
ohm, 1/2 watt) between Reader Data 0 and +12 VDC and between Reader Data 1 and +12 VDC. Some
readers require pull-up resistors regardless of cable length. For 5V readers, the maximum cable
distance is 300 feet (91.44) with pull-up resistors. Refer to your reader manual to determine if pull-up
resistors are required.

5. Label each cable end with the controller address number/device or reader number.

Wiring digital inputs

Each reader port has two unsupervised digital inputs (DIs) which are used for door status devices (door
contacts and exit request input). Since these DIs are not supervised, they do not require end-of-line resistors.

To wire a DI:

1. Install the door contact and exit contact as required.

2. Wire the door DI between pin 2 (Gnd) and pin 8 (Door DI) and/or exit DI between pin 2 (Gnd) and pin
5 (Exit DI) to the corresponding reader port on the 2RP board. The contact can be Normally Open or
Normally Closed.

2SRP board

Each 2SRP reader board provides four supervised DIs (two alarm, two exit), two reader LED outputs, two door
strike DO relays, two auxiliary DO relays, and two alarm shunt relays used to shunt out external alarm inputs.
Please note the following:

• Each 2SRP board is limited to only one type of reader technology: Wiegand, Strobed, F/2F, and
Supervised F/2F. In addition, both readers connected to the board must have the same voltage.

• The 2SRP board has built-in pull-up resistors to accommodate cable lengths over 500 feet. External
pull-up resistors are not required for the 2SRP board.

• Each reader, DI point, Aux DO, and Exit DI on the 2SRP board is addressed differently depending on
the host system you are using.

• If alarm points are not available on the reader, use alarm points on the controller.

Chapter 5

Wiring DIs

Each reader port has two supervised digital inputs which are used for door status devices (door contacts and
exit request input). Since these digital inputs are supervised, they require end-of-line resistors.

To wire a DI:

1. Follow the installation specifications for the device. Mount the device according to the manufacturer’s

specifications. The alarm device (door contact) should have a dry contact which can have a Normally
Open or Normally Closed type switch. A Normally Closed contact is in its normal or resting position
when it is closed. For example, the contact is closed when the door is closed. The opposite is true for a
Normally Open contact. In this case, the contact is open when the door is closed.

2. Select the appropriate digital input for each alarm input device.

3. Ground the shields of the cable at the M3000 enclosure grounding studs. Insulate the shield (with tape

or shrink tubing) at the DI device end to avoid electrical noise.

4. Install two end-of-line resistors. Install each resistor as close to the door status contact as possible.

5. We recommend the standard 1,000 (1K) ohm, 1/4 watt, 5% tolerance, high-quality end-of-line

resistors. This board also supports 6.8K and 18K end-of-line resistors. See Figure 19 on page 72 for
the location of the resistors. See Table 26, Supervised DI end-of-line resistors on page 63 for the
appropriate switch settings.

71

6. Wire the supervised door DI between pin 8 (Door DI) and pin 9 (Door DI Return). Wire the supervised

exit DI between pin 5 (Exit DI) and pin 10 (Exit DI Return). The contact can be Normally Open or
Normally Closed.

CAUTION: The supervision capability will be impaired if the resistors are NOT wired immediately adjacent to the

door status contact.

7. Insulate resistors with tape or heat shrink tubing.

8. Document how you wired the alarm input devices. Future expansion of the system and its maintenance

depend upon accurate documentation.

Wiring alarm shunt relays

One alarm shunt relay is available per reader port. The alarm shunt relay is used to shunt (disable) an external
alarm system contact (e.g. burglar alarm) on a valid read or exit pushbutton request.

To wire an alarm shunt relay:

1. Install the alarm shunt (2 A @ 30 VDC or 0.50 A @ 120 VAC) as required.

2. Wire external alarm system to the alarm shunt relay. The relay has either a Normally Open or
Normally Closed dry contact available (pin 7 = Common, pin 8 = Normally Closed, pin 9 = Normally
Open).

Note: Single color LED readers do not support alarm shunt relays.

8RP board

Introduction

The number of 8RP boards supported by different host software systems varies. Consult the manual that came
with your software for this information.

• The 8RP board was redesigned to work with 12V readers only. This new version of the 8RP board can
be identified by the assembly number 110100001 with a revision of C or later.

• Each 8RP board is limited to only one type of reader technology: F/2F or Supervised F/2F.

• External pull-up resistors are not required for the 8RP board.

• No DI (alarm points) or exit DIs are available on the 8RP board. Therefore, use of supervised readers
is recommended since these points are available on the reader.

• If keypad readers are needed, use ONLY UTC/GE Supervised F/2F keypad readers or Wiegand
Interface Units (WIU-2/WIU-4).

• Each reader, reader-based DI (input) point, and reader-based Exit DI on the 8RP board is addressed
differently depending on the host system you are using.

• The 8RP board provides one digital output (reader LED) per reader port, 0.10 amps @ 12 VDC
maximum per output point.

Device addressing

Picture Perfect

Note: Picture Perfect uses 2RP board numbers to address readers, DIs, and DOs on the 8RP board; See Tab le 19

and Tab le 20 for further information. Therefore, in Picture Perfect:

• Reader ports 1 and 2 are configured as Board number 1, reader address 0 and 1;

• Reader ports 3 and 4 are configured as Board number 2, reader address 0 and 1;

• Reader ports 5 and 6 are configured as Board number 3, reader address 0 and 1;

• Reader ports 7 and 8 are configured as Board number 4, reader address 0 and 1.

Wiring readers

To wire a reader:

1. Mount the reader. Refer to the manual that came with your reader for specific mounting instructions.

2. Run cable from the reader to the controller. Bring each reader cable through the appropriate knockout
hole in the controller cabinet. Allow some slack wire for servicing the cables and for plugging the
cable into an adjacent slot for troubleshooting.

3. Remove eight inches of insulating material from the cable. Unwrap shielding and tie all shields
together. Connect the communications cable shield to the ground nut adjacent to the cable entrance
knockout of the cabinet enclosure. For more details, see Figure 73, Typical installation using shielded

cable/drain wire - outside and inside the enclosure on page 144.

4. Place the appropriate wires to the appropriate screw terminal on the 8RP reader board. Refer to the
reader wiring diagrams in this section. Pairing of cables is very important.

CAUTION: The 8RP board has built-in pull-up resistors. Do not install the external pull-up resistors supplied with

the UTC/GE Proximity Readers.

Chapter 5

81

5. Label each cable end with Controller Address Number/ Device or Reader Number.

It is recommended that 20-AWG shielded cable be used for wiring reader DOs and DIs. Use plenum­rated cable for applications where cable is to be run above the false (suspended) ceiling in the air
circulation space.

The following cable types are recommended:

• Alpha Xtra Guard1® foil shield cable, non-plenum rated, and

• Belden security and alarm cable (commercial applications shielded), plenum-rated.

Wiring door strikes

One reader LED (door DO) is dedicated to each reader. The reader LED (door DO) is used for the reader LED
and/or for an external door strike relay.

To wire a door strike:

1. Install the door strike as required.

2. Wire the door strike to the external door strike relay. The door strike relay is connected to +12 VDC
(pin 1 and/or pin 5) and door DO (pin 4 and/or pin 8).

3. Install a protection diode across the relay and the door strike. Use 1N4002, 1N4003, 1N4004 or
equivalent diodes for DC door strikes and Metal Oxide Varistors (MOV) for AC door strikes.

Note: Protection diode or MOV and blocking diode required at all electronic door locks.

4. Install a blocking diode on the door DO (Reader LED) line between the reader and the door strike
relay. Use 1N5817 (included with reader). The diode must be installed on the secure side of the door in
order to be UL compliant.

Installation Manual

Introduction

The M3000 Controller supports the 20 Digital Input (20DI) board, the 16 Digital Output (16DO) board, and the
16 Digital Output with Relays (16DOR) board. Although the M3000 enclosure holds up to seven boards, the
specific number of DI and DO boards supported by the different host software systems varies. Reference the
manual that came with your host system for further information on how many boards it supports.

20DI board

The 20DI board provides 20 supervised digital input (alarm) points. Supervised DIs have end-of-line resistors
on the contacts which enable the controller to detect line shorts and breaks in addition to the open and closed
contact conditions. Please note the following:

• The maximum distance allowed between the M3000 and the alarm input device is 1,000 feet (30.48m).

• The recommended cable wire is a two-conductor, 22-AWG shielded, stranded cable.

• Each DI point is addressed differently depending on the host system you are using.

Device addressing

Picture Perfect

From one to four boards can be configured with DI points from 16 to 35. Picture Perfect addresses DIs by
board number; therefore, the DI numbers are the same for each of the possible four DI boards.

Secure Perfect

From one to four boards can be configured with DI points from 1 to 20. Addressing of DI boards follows the
format: mmmm-b-pp where mmmm represents the controller number to which this DI is associated,
the board number, and pp represents the point or device number.

For example:

0001-1-01 = DI on controller 1, DI board 1, DI 1
0001-2-01 = DI on controller 1, DI board 2, DI 1

Installation Manual

Setting DIP switches

Set the DIP switches on the 20DI board before installing it and wiring the alarm input devices. The 20DI PCB
board should be at Revision G or later. (The revision level can be found on the underside of the circuit board in
the lower right corner.)

To wire the digital input devices

1. Follow the installation specifications for the device. Mount the device according to the manufacturer’s

specifications. The alarm device (door contact) should have a dry contact which can have a Normally
Open or Normally Closed type switch. A Normally Closed contact is in its normal position when it is
closed. The opposite is true for a Normally Open contact.

2. Select the appropriate digital input for each alarm input device.

3. Ground the shields of the cable at the M3000 enclosure grounding studs. Float the shield (with tape or

shrink tubing) at the DI device end to avoid electrical noise.

4. Install two end-of-line resistors (not included). We recommend high quality, 1,000 (1K) ohm, 1/4 watt,

5% tolerance end-of-line resistors. Install each resistor as close to the door status contact as possible.

CAUTION: The supervision capability will be impaired if the resistors are NOT wired immediately adjacent to the

door status contact.

5. Insulate resistors with tape or heat shrink tubing.

6. Document how you wired the alarm input devices. Future expansion of the system and its maintenance

depend upon accurate documentation.

Installation Manual

16DO and 16DOR boards

There are two different DO boards available: the 16 Digital Output (16DO) board, and the 16 Digital Output
with Relays (16DOR) board.

The 16DO board provides 16 digital outputs rated at 100 mA @ 24 VDC maximum per output point.

The 16DOR board has 16 relay output points rated at 2 A @ 30 VDC or 0.50 A @ 120 VAC maximum per
output point. The first two relays on each J connector can be wired as Normally Open or Normally Closed. The
last two relays on each J connector are factory-set as Normally Open. Note the following:

• The maximum allowable distance between the M3000 16DO/16DOR board and the output device is

1,000 feet (30.48 m).

• Two-conductor, 22-AWG shielded, stranded wire is recommended for the 16DO board. Two conductor

18 to 22-AWG shielded, stranded wire is recommended for the 16DOR board depending on the cable
distance, amperage (current draw), and voltage of the output device.

• Each DO point is addressed differently depending on the host software you are using.

Device addressing

Picture Perfect

From one to four boards can be configured with DO points from 16 to 31. Picture Perfect addresses DOs by
board number; therefore, the DO numbers are the same for each of the possible four DO/DOR boards.

Facility Commander Wnx and Secure Perfect

From one to four boards can be configured with DO points from 1 to 16. Addressing of DO boards follows the
format: mmmm-b-pp where mmmm represents the controller number to which this DO is associated,
represents the board number, and pp represents the point or device number. For example:

0001-1-01 = DO on controller 1, DO board 1, DO 1
0001-2-01 = DO on controller 1, DO board 2, DO 1
