The ADA-10 has several jumpers on the top surface that must be cut to configure the operation of the relay.
When cutting the jumpers, it is important to only cut the jumpers at the top of the loop and bend the two
halves apart to prevent them from touching. DO NOT CUT THE JUMPERS FLUSH WITH THE SURFACE
OF THE ADA-10 AS IT MAY BE NECESSARY RECONNECT THEM LATER IF THE WRONG JUMPERS
HAVE BEEN CUT. It may be necessary to wrap the ADA-10 with insulated tape to prevent the ends of the
jumpers from shorting to any external metal objects.
The ADA-11 module is identical in function to the ADA-10 module. It is a smaller, non-potted circuit board
that includes a plastic, “U Channel”, mounting track. Unlike the ADA-10 the power input does not have to be
configured for 12 or 24 volt operation, it automatically works on 12 or 24 volts DC. Also in place of the
jumpers that require cutting on the ADA-10 module, the ADA-11 has DIP switches which are easier to
reconfigure if set incorrectly. Wiring is connected to the ADA-11 using screw terminal blocks instead of the
special connectors utilized on the ADA-10.
BECAUSE THE ADA-11 IS A NON-POTTED MODULE, IF THE RELAY IS TO BE INSTALLED IN AN AREA
OF EXTREME ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS, THE ADA-10 IS A BETTER CHOICE. The ADA-11 circuit
is coated with a protective, environmental seal, but it is not as well protected as the potted, ADA-10 module.
3.6.4.2 Additional Output Relay Wiring
Each reader input of the AAN-4 has the capability of controlling 3 output relays in addition to the strike relay.
There are a total of five output relays available. The internal strike relay, an external strike relay, and the
three extra output relays. The two strike relays (internal and external) perform the exact same functions,
releasing the door when required. The extra three relays available are defined as Local Alarm, Aux Out 1,
and Aux Out 2.
The function of the Local Alarm relay is pre-programmed in the firmware of the reader and cannot be
modified. The reader will activate this relay whenever any of the following conditions exist:
Door Forced Open (Reader Detects the Door Contact Input Open Illegally)
Door Held Open (Reader Detects the door has not closed after legal entry)
Auxiliary Alarm (Either of the Auxiliary Alarm inputs are opened)
Reader Tamper (AAN-4 Tamper Input is opened)
Because control of the local alarm relay is completely self contained within the reader interface, this relay will
activate anytime the above conditions occur, regardless of proper functioning of the other components in the
system. This relay does not require communications to be working, the controller to be functioning, the PC to
be operating, or the software to be running. The only thing required for the local alarm relay to operate is
power (battery backed up UPS power supplies may be used). Because of this extremely reliable operation,
the Local Alarm relays are often used as a redundant backup to other system functions in highly critical
areas. Some typical uses for the Local Alarm relay are as a standalone siren above certain doors,
connection into other alarm systems, and small bell to signal Held Open to get the people holding the door
open to close it.
FOR PROPER OPERATION OF THE LOCAL ALARM RELAY, ALL UNUSED INPUTS MUST BE
TERMINATED. In the Unsupervised mode, jumpers should be connected to any unused Aux Alarm or Door
Contact Input. If the reader is being used in the supervised mode, 300 ohm resistors or ATM-30 terminators
with a jumper between inputs 1 and 2 should be connected to all unused inputs. For information, see the
section regarding input supervision.
The Aux Out 1 and 2 relays are programmable relays that require programming to configure their operation.
They may be linked to other system alarms or events to trigger a siren or bell. An example may be to
connect a siren to a Aux Out relay connected to a reader near the security Supervisor's office and configure
the software to activate this relay (siren) whenever any door in the entire system is Forced Open. The actual
capabilities of the Aux Out relays are dependant on the software system being used and the type of
controller.
The use of any of these three relay capabilities requires addition of external ADA-10/11 relay modules.
THESE RELAYS ARE NOT PROVIDED WITH THE AAN-4 AND MUST BE PURCHASED SEPARATELY.
The ADA-10 relay module is a potted module suitable for use in areas where extreme environmental
