Maximal3FV / Maximal5FV / Maximal7FV Access Power Controllers (Fused)
- 5 -
6.
ACM8 Auxiliary Power outputs (unswitched):
Connect access control devices that require constant power to terminals marked [C] positive (+) and [COM]
negative (–). Outputs can be used to provide power for card readers, keypads, etc.
eFlow Auxiliary outputs (unswitched):
For auxiliary device connection this output will not be affected by Low Power Disconnect or Fire Alarm
Interface. Connect device to terminals marked [+ AUX –] (Fig. 3, pg. 9).
7.
Input trigger options (Fig. 2, pg. 8):
(a) Normally Open [NO] input trigger:
Inputs 1-8 are activated by normally open or open collector sink inputs. Connect access control panel
outputs, keypads, push buttons, REX PIRs, etc. to terminals marked [IN] and [GND].
(b) Open Collector Sink inputs:
Connect the access control panel open collector sink positive (+) to terminals marked [IN] and the
negative (–) to terminals marked [GND].
8.
ACM8 Fire Alarm Interface options (Figs. 5-9, pg. 11):
A normally closed [NC] or normally open [NO] input trigger from a fire alarm control panel or a polarity
reversal input from an FACP signaling circuit will affect selected outputs.
To enable FACP Disconnect for an output, turn the corresponding switch(es) [SW1-SW8] OFF on each
ACM8 board. To disable FACP disconnect for an output, turn the corresponding switch(es) [SW1-SW8]
ON on each ACM8 board.
(a) Normally Open [NO] input:
For non-latching hook-up refer to Fig. 6, pg. 11. For latching hook-up refer to Fig. 7, pg. 11.
(b) Normally Closed [NC] input:
For non-latching hook-up refer to Fig. 8, pg. 11. For latching hook-up refer to Fig. 9, pg. 11.
(c) FACP Signaling Circuit input trigger:
Connect the positive (+) and negative (–) from the FACP signaling circuit output to the terminals
marked [+ INP –]. Connect the FACP EOL to the terminals marked [+ RET –] (polarity is referenced
in an alarm condition). Jumper located next to TRG LED must be cut (Fig. 5, pg. 11).
9.
FACP Dry form “C” output (Fig. 2b, pg. 8):
FACP form “C” contacts can be use to trigger reporting or signaling devices. These contact switch
upon a fire alarm input trigger to the ACM8 boards.
10.
Stand-by Battery Connections (Fig. 3, pg. 9):
For Access Control applications batteries are optional. When batteries are not used, a loss of AC will
result in the loss of output voltage. When the use of stand-by batteries is desired, they must be lead acid or
gel type. Connect battery to terminals marked [– BAT +] (Fig. 3, pg. 9). Use two (2) 12VDC batteries
connected in series for 24VDC operation (battery leads included). Use batteries - Casil CL1270 (12V/7AH),
CL12120 (12V/12AH), CL12400 (12V/40AH), CL12650 (12V/65AH) batteries or UL recognized BAZR2
and BAZR8 batteries of an appropriate rating.
11.
Battery and AC Supervision outputs (Fig. 3, pg. 9):
It is required to connect supervisory trouble reporting devices to outputs marked [AC Fail, BAT Fail]
supervisory relay outputs marked [NC, C, NO] to appropriate visual notification devices.
Use 22 AWG to 18 AWG for AC Fail & Low/No Battery reporting.
12. To delay AC reporting for 2 hrs., set DIP switch [AC Delay] to OFF position (Fig. 3, pg. 9).
To delay AC reporting for 1 min., set DIP switch [AC Delay] to ON position (Fig. 3, pg. 9).
13.
Fire Alarm Disconnect (Fig. 3, pg. 9):
To enable Fire Alarm Disconnect set DIP switch [Shutdown] to ON position.
To disable Fire Alarm Disconnect set DIP switch [Shutdown] to OFF position.
14.
Installation of tamper switch (Not Included) (Fig. 3b, pg. 9):
Mount UL Listed tamper switch (Honeywell Model 112 or equivalent) at the top of the enclosure. Slide the
tamper switch bracket onto the edge of the enclosure approximately 2” from the right side (Fig. 3b, pg. 9).
Connect tamper switch wiring to the Access Control Panel input or the appropriate UL Listed reporting
device. To activate alarm signal, open the door of the enclosure.
15.
Multiple power supply inputs (Fig. 2, pg. 8):
When using an additional external power supply, jumpers J1 and J2 located on corresponding ACM8
board must be cut (Fig. 2c, 2d, pg. 8). Connect external access control power supply to the terminals
marked [– C] (These terminals are paralleled to the [– Power +] terminals). When using DC power
supplies, polarity must be observed. When using AC power supplies, polarity needs not to be observed.
(Fig. 2d, pg. 8) All field wiring connections must be made employing suitable gauge CM or FPL jacketed
wire or equivalent substitute (Fig. 4a, pg. 10).
