How to Install the ISONAS PureIP Reader-controller
1: BEFORE YOU BEGIN
This guide discusses each wiring process separately. Understanding all of these processes
makes a project much simpler and helps guarantee success. To install an ISONAS Reader-
controller unit, you must complete three key wiring tasks:
1.1.
Mount the Pure IP Reader-Controller reader in the appropriate location. Recommended
locations and wiring methods shall be in accordance with 1) the National Electrical Code,
{ANSI/NFPA 70}; 2) International Building Code {IBC}, and 3) Americans with Disabilities
Act {ADA}.
1.2.
Supply power to the Pure IP Reader-Controller reader. This may be accomplished with
power being provided on the Ethernet data cable (Power over Ethernet [POE / POE+]) or
through an external DC power source (12VDC). When powering from POE or POE+, in order
for the system to be UL294 V6 compliant, the Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) injector or
end point must be compliant to UL294 or UL294B standards.
1.3.
Wire the unit to the door’s locks and other components for physical access control.
1.4.
Connect the unit to the data network for communication with the Host access control
system. The Host access control system typically is one of the following: PureAccess-
Cloud, PureAccess-Manager, or a 3
rd
party ACS software package.
1.5.
The Pure IP Reader-Controller reader complies with UL 294 V6 and is rated for the following
performance levels:
1.5.1.
Standby power = Level I.
1.5.2.
Endurance = Level IV.
1.5.3.
Line Security = Level IV.
1.5.4.
Destructive Attack = Level IV (EDK required).
1.1
: GENERAL REQUIREMENTS:
If PoE is not being used, then use only UL-listed, access control, power-limited power
supplies with an ‘AC on’ indicator light clearly visible on the enclosure. Power supplies should
provide at least four hours of standby power.
Never connect power supplies to a switch-controlled receptacle.
Install the ISONAS system in accordance with the National Electrical Code NFPA 70, IBC,
and ADA requirements. (Local authority has jurisdiction.)
Use only UL-listed wire or cabling recognized suitable for ISONAS power supply and data
communications, in accordance with the National Electrical Code.
Where possible, separate ISONAS equipment and cabling from sources of electromagnetic
interference (EMI). Where this is not possible, take other steps to reduce the effect of EMI on
cabling or equipment.
Protect input and output terminals adequately from transient signals. Also, connect these
terminals to power-limited circuitry.
