Programmable Outputs
The Protege Reader Expander has 4 Programmable Outputs (PGMs). The PGMs are used to activate the
Electric Door Locks, Sirens, Lighting Control and Relay Accessory Products.
6.1
Lock PGM Outputs (1 and 2)
The + and - terminals of Lock 1 (PGM1 RD001:01) and Lock 2 (PGM2 RD001:02) are used to power electric
door strikes and other lock control devices that require a steady voltage output. The lock outputs supply 12Vdc
upon an unlock or activation and support up to 1000mA (1A) inrush and 700mA continuous operation. The lock
output uses an electronically fused circuit and automatically shuts down if the current exceeds 1.1A.
If the load on the lock terminals returns to normal (≤1A), the reader expander will reinstate power to the lock
terminals if they are activated.
For locking devices that have different voltage or current requirements than is available at the L1+/- or L2+/-
terminals, a FORM C relay contact is also provided, with the RELAY 1 contacts operating in parallel with Lock
1(PGM1 RD001:01) output and the RELAY 2 contacts operating in parallel with the Lock 2(PGM2 RD001:02)
output.

Lock Output PGM1/2 Relay Outputs
When the lock output is not used, the appropriate trouble zone will be activated (refer to the Trouble Zone Input
section). To avoid this, connect a 1kΩ resistor across the lock output. If the Lock is not being used for another
function, and the trouble zone is not programmed in the system, no resistor is required.
