Data Transfer Module
(
AL-DTM
)
An
AL-DTM
can be used to transfer Lock Programs (and other data) between DL-Windows and locks. When
computers cannot be transported or when electrical power is not available, the hand-held
AL-DTM
device acts as
a go-between--it allows the transfer of lock data from the computer (through the
AL-DTM
) and to the lock, or in
reverse (from the lock through the
AL-DTM
back to the computer). The AL-DTM can only be used on the
Primary Lock Side where the standard red and black communication port is located.
Note:
Only 5000 of
the most recent events are transferred using the AL-DTM.
Infrared Printer (AL-IR1)
An
AL-IR1
printer is used to print Audit Trails and User Code lists without the need for a PC. Its infrared
reader means no cable connection to the lock is needed. The AL-IR1 printer can only be used on the
Primary Lock Side where the infrared transmitter LED is located.
Double-ended Mini Banana Plug Connector
After you create the program in DL-Windows and transfer the program from your computer to an
AL-DTM
,
transfer the program from the
AL-DTM
to the lock(s) via this double-ended mini banana plug. The 2-pin
banana plug connector is polarity sensitive. The TAB (marked “GND”) side must be plugged into the
lock’s
black
(left) terminal (located on the Primary Lock Side).
AL-PCI Cable
An ALARM LOCK
AL-PCI
cable is required to communicate between your computer’s RS-232 serial com-
munications port (COM 1-4) and the
AL-DTM
or lock. One end of the
AL-PCI
cable is designed to be used
on a 9-pin serial Com Port. If your computer has a 25-pin Com Port only, a 25-pin to 9-pin adapter must be
used. The other end of the
AL-PCI
cable features a 2-pin banana plug connector which is polarity sensitive-
-the TAB (marked “GND”) side must be plugged into the lock’s
black
(left) terminal (located on the Primary
Lock Side).
USB to RS-232 Cable
If your computer does not have a serial COM port (DB-9 male) available, you can plug your AL-PCI2 cable
into a special USB to RS-232 cable. Order part
MX1130
for the USB to RS-232 cable only, or
ALPCI2-U
for both the USB to RS-232 cable and an AL-PCI2 cable.
