Configuration and Usage
This section describes the final configuration as well as operation details for the RC Rackmount series power supplies .
2 .1 Removing the Faceplate of the Enclosure
Use the following steps to remove the faceplate of the rack-
mount enclosure and gain access to the front boards .
1 . Remove and retain the five philips head 6-32 screws
from the faceplate . DO NOT remove the four 10-32
screws securing the enclosure to the rack .
2 . Carefully remove the faceplate and set it aside in a
safe location
When configuration is complete, reverse the removal pro-
cedure to replace the cover, taking care to align the LEDs
with the holes in the faceplate (See figure 6) .
2 .2 Configuring the Zones
Input Selection (Figure 7)
These switches are used to select a normally open or normally
closed input for each zone . Switch 1 sets zone 1, switch 2 sets
zone 2, and so on . Adjust this switch so that the zone's output
LED is FLASH ING when the door is unlocked .
• OFF (NC/Fail Safe)
Set this switch to OFF for a NC contact
input (contact OPENS to unlock door) or for a voltage input
where the voltage is REMOVED to unlock the door .
• ON (NO/Fail Secure)
Set this switch to ON for a NO contact
input (contact CLOSES to unlock door) or for a voltage input
where the voltage is APPLIED to unlock the door .
FAI Selection (Figure 7)
These switches enable or disable FAI for the selected zone .
Switch 1 sets zone 1, switch 2 sets zone 2, and so on .
• ON (FAI Enabled)
When this switch is set to ON, the zone's
output will invert when the FAI input is active . This is typically
used to drop power to maglocks on a fire alarm condition .
• OFF (FAI Disabled)
When this is set to OFF, FAI will have no
effect on the zone's output .
Output Selection (Figure 8)
These switches are used to select a fail-safe or fail-secure out-
put for each zone . Switch 1 sets zone 1, switch 2 sets zone 2,
and so on . Set this switch so that the door is UNLOCKED when
the zone output LED is flashing (Zone Active) .
• ON (Fail Secure Output)
By setting this switch to ON, the
zone's output terminals will output a voltage when the zone in-
put is activated .
• OFF (Fail Safe Output)
By setting this switch to OFF, the
zone's output terminals will not output a voltage when the zone
input is activated . This posi tion is typically used for Mag Locks .
