1. Introduction In this manual, unless otherwise stated, “AC-215” refers to both the regular AC-215 and the UL-listed AC-215U models. The AC-215 series of access control panels and the AxTraxNG™ PC software are a combination that gives full control over the entrances of your premises. The AxTraxNG software supports control for both single and double door entrances, with which up to 1000 AC-215 access control units (ACUs) can be monitored. The AC-215 panels employ the latest technology to meet the requirements of the market. They control one or two doors when used as a standalone controller, and up to 64 doors per 32 controllers in a network and 5000 users when used as a networked controller with the AxTraxNG software. Table 1 summarizes the two AC-215 and AC-215U models and their respective descriptions. Table 1: Description of AC-215 Panels Model Name Description AC-215 No onboard IP, supplied with 230 VAC transformer AC-215U No onboard IP, FCC approved and UL-294 listed. Use a Class 2 plug-in power supply (sold separately). The AxTraxNG software, which is user-friendly and intuitive, defines settings and event logs. A single server, communicating to and from the ACU, can serve unlimited network clients. The system’s database is saved in the server. The database can be set to back up, and can import/export previous configurations. Clients are able to modify the database; for example, define new employees and/or their access permissions. AxTraxNG can run under Windows 98, 2000, NT or XP operating systems. The AxTraxNG software and associated computer monitoring equipment has not been evaluated by UL. Figure 1 is an example of how the AxTraxNG and AC-215 system can be set up.

1.1 Control Panel Components The AC-215 control panel consists of the following components:  AC-215 controller board  Enclosure  PS-14 power supply 1.2 Software The AxTraxNG software is user-friendly and intuitive. Its graphic interface is used to define settings, which are downloaded to the ACU and event logs which are uploaded to the PC to generate reports. A single server, which communicates to and from the ACU, can serve unlimited network clients. The system’s database is saved in the server. The database can be set to backup and can import/export previous configurations. Clients are able to modify the database, for example, define new employees and their access permissions. The software enables features to be added as and when they are required. The modular software enables the user interface to be as powerful and strong as required and yet remains simple to use. The software can be set for automatic backup on a periodic basis. AxTraxNG can be run on Windows 98, 2000, NT and XP. For UL installations, the installer must configure the system as fail-safe to comply with NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) regulations.

AC-215 Installation Manual 13 3. Inputs and Outputs This chapter discusses the AC-215 ACU input and output requirements. 3.1 Inputs 3.1.1 Release to Exit Button (REX) REX enables quick exit from a premises. The following should be defined: Single door controller Door 1 – IN1 Double door controller Door 1 – IN 1 Door 2 – IN 2 Usually the REX input is connected to a push button that is located inside the premises. The push button opens a door without reading a proximity card or PIN code. Generally, the REX is located in a convenient position such as near the reception area, and is always set as enabled in the AxTraxNG software. 3.1.2 Door Monitor The Door Monitor connects to a door’s micro switch for door status monitoring. The following should be defined: Single door controller Door 1 – IN1A Double door controller Door 1 – IN 1A Door 2 – IN 2A Two alarm states can be generated:  Forced alarm – When the door is forcibly opened by unauthorized persons  Door held open alarm – When the door is open for a period exceeding the lock strike programmed open time A door held open alert can be generated by activating chime on speaker to remind that the door should be close. After the ACU enables access, the lock is activated according to its programmed time until one of the following occurs:  The ACU stops lock activation immediately after the door opens  The ACU waits for the door to close. (This can help to reduce tailgating) When the door open time period expires, the ACU ends lock activation.

14 AC-215 Installation Manual 3.1.3 Tamper The internal tamper switch must be connected to a UL Listed burglary unit. Refer to the selected UL Listed burglary unit for connection instructions The tamper input connects to a tamper micro switch assembled within the ACU panel. The following should be defined: Single door controller Door 1 – IN2 Tamper input is activated when the panel is opened through vandalism. The system has two additional tamper inputs on the reader terminals. 3.1.4 General The General input connects to any general-purpose dry contact input. Single door controller Door 1 – IN2A This function can be used when activating the general purpose output connections, such as alarm sensors and monitoring power supply failure. The ACU reports activation if this input changes status. The system has four output relays. Their contacts are voltage free and rated 5 A at 12 VAC or VDC. This indicates that output is very versatile and can operate virtually any electrical equipment including Fail Open and Fail Close locks, electric gates and so on. 3.1.5 Outputs We recommend using a suppression diode for all outputs. 3.1.6 Door Lock There are two types of door locking devices:  Fail open (fail secure)  Fail close (fail safe) The user can select either normally open or normally closed output contacts. The following should be defined: Single door controller Door 1 – OUT1 Double door controller Door 1 – OUT1 Door 2 – OUT2 The output can sink current from any power supply (see Section 2.2). In a time zone door locking is activated in the following modes:  Grant Access  Automatic Relock

AC-215 Installation Manual 15 The output can provide 12 VDC power up to 1.5 A for external door locks. For higher rated door locks an external UL 294 Listed power supply must be used to provide power to the door lock. For UL installations, the installer must configure the system as fail-safe to comply with NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) regulations 3.1.7 Door Alarm This output is activated when either an alarm occurs in the system, or automatically by a time zone. The following should be defined: Single door controller Door 1 – OUT1A Double door controller Door 1 – OUT1A Door 2 – OUT2A The output can be activated for a specified time and closes when the timer ends. 3.1.8 Auxiliary This output is activated when a transaction occurs in the readers that are either associated with auxiliary, or automatically by a time zone. The following should be defined: Single door controller Door 1 – OUT2 The output has two activations modes:  Time – active for a specified time and closes when the timer ends  Toggle – active for every change in the output trigger – the trigger changes state 3.1.9 General This output is usually related to the general input or automatically by a time zone. The following should be defined: Single door controller Door 1 – OUT2A The output has three activation modes:  Follow input – output follows the input state  Toggle – active for every change in the output trigger – the trigger changes state  Time – active for a specified time and closes when the timer ends

21 5. Communications Communication lines are used to upload and download information between the ACU and the AxTraxNG software. Communication between the ACU and PC is displayed by the system’s two LEDs.  The RX LED flashes when the controller receives data  The TX LED flashes when the controller transmits data The ACU address is defined in the AxTraxNG software. For successful communications, the dipswitch must be defined with the same address. There are three connection modes:  Serial  RS-232  RS-485  Modem  LAN 5.1 Serial Connection The PC Serial Port controlling the ACU is assigned in the Network Properties in the AxTraxNG software. By default the default is set to 9600 for direct connection to the PC using the standard RS-232 interface. 5.1.1 RS-232 Connection Table 5: RS-232 Connection ACU DB9 Connector DB25 Connector GND Pin 5 Pin 7 Tx Pin 2 Pin 3 Rx Pin 3 Pin 2 DTR Pin 4 Pin 20 The RS-232 connection can only be used for one ACU. The distance between the PC and ACU can be no more than 50 m (150 ft). If the baud rate is increased to 57600 the distance can be up to 10 m (30 ft). J1 must be in the RS-232 position to select the RS-232 communication. 5.1.2 RS-485 Connection to the PC Up to 32 ACUs can be linked together and connected to a single communication port on the PC. The RS-485 interface must be used when multiple controllers are connected. The serial port used to control the ACU is assigned in the AxTraxNG software Network Properties dialog box. all-guides com

ACU supports the 2-wire RS-485 interface. RS-485 interface enables the distance between the ACU and PC to be extended up to 1300 m (4000 ft). The data line wiring must be in daisy chain formatting with one control unit following another. The first ACU connecting to the PC must use the MD-14, RS-485 to RS-232 adaptor. The recommended cable type to be used is STP cat5 (shielded twisted pair category 5). We recommend using a 20-24-AWG cable. 5.1.3 Daisy Chain Communication lines must be wired in a daisy chain format with one ACU following another. J1 must be in the RS-485 position. J1 must be in the RS-485 position. At each end of the data line a termination resistor of 100–120 Ω is required across the L1 and L2 connections. 5.2 Modem The PC modem connection, used to control the ACU, is assigned in the AxTraxNG software’s Network Properties dialog box. The modem is used when the distance between the ACU and the PC is greater than the recommended serial connection distance or in an application where an alternative RS-232/RS-485 network is unavailable. Figure 2 illustrates remote site modem configuration with AC-215. Figure 2: Remote Site Modem Configuration For more information, see Appendix B.

23 5.3 Communication through the Local Area Network (LAN) The TCP/IP connection, used to control the ACU, is assigned in the AxTraxNG software’s Network Properties dialog box. The PC running the AxTraxNG software can communicate with the ACU through the LAN card inside the PC. The ACU connects to the LAN using Rosslare MD-N32, TCP/IP to RS-232 gateway converter. MD-N32 can be connected in any legal network address in the Local Area Network. The following type of connection is used when a LAN network already exists and therefore the long RS-485 network is not required. This schematic illustrates the connection of a single AC-215 to the PC using the LAN network. MD-N32 must be first configured by Rosslare's Netconfig software. The setting is stored in a non-volatile memory in the MD-N32. Figure 3: MD-N32 Configuration Connecting a Single Panel Multiple ACUs can be connected by adding an RS-485 converter (MD-14) between the RS-485 ACUs network and MD-N32 converter. Figure 4: Connecting Multiple Access Control Panels with MD-N32 For more information, see Appendix A.

6. Wiring 6.1 General Wiring Diagram Figure 5 illustrates the general wiring layout of the AC-215. Figure 5: Wiring For UL installations, the following signal lines are not allowed to be run outside of the protected area: • 12 VDC 1.5 A + and (-) • 12 VDC 0.5 A + and (-) • Relay contacts OUT1: COM., N.O., and N.C.

25 6.2 Inputs Figure 6 illustrates wiring for four AC-215 inputs. For further details, see Chapter 3. Figure 6: Wiring Four AC-215 Inputs 6.3 Outputs Figure 7 and Figure 8 illustrate wiring for two main types of 12 VDC electric release mechanisms. Other electrical devices can be switched using the voltage free relay contacts. The output can provide 12 VDC power up to 1.5 A for external door locks. For higher rated door locks an external UL 294 Listed power supply must be used to provide power to the door lock. For UL installations, the installer must configure the system as fail-safe to comply with NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) regulations.

6.3.1 Power Supply Figure 9 illustrates wiring between the PS-14 power supply and the AC-215. It is recommended to add a 12 VDC lead acid backup battery to backup power if the main fails. If the main output is 12 VDC, wire it to the (PS-14); otherwise support your power supply according to output requirements. Figure 9: AC-215 Wiring to Power Supply
