Secondary Reader

 

Wire the second reader to the controller as shown 

above. Be sure to check polarity and voltage prior to powering the controller.

DPS (Door Position Switch)

 

- The DPS is mounted on the door frame in the 

desired location with a 22/2 wire running from the DPS to the 

controller. 

Wire the DPS to the controller as shown above. When using two DPS sensors 

for double doors, you will wire them in series with only two 
conductors running back to the controller for connection.

AUX Input

 

- A rule can be set up to trigger events or outputs based on this 

input trigger.

Maglock

 

- When installing a Maglock, it is typical to install a REX (Request to 

Exit) at the door for free egress. Run an 18/2 wire from the Maglock to the 

door controller

, connecting to the Maglock as shown.

REX (Request to Exit)

 

- The REX is mounted in the desired location with an 

18/5 wire ran from the REX to the controller. Wire the REX to the 

controller 

and Maglock, as shown above. If reporting is not needed in the system, simply 

eliminate the green-labeled wire.

Jumper

 

- Use the designated jumper(s) to energize the relay output NO and 

NC to utilize the output as a wet contact.

C

Gate Operator

 

- Follow the gate operator wiring instructions to connect the 

gate operator to an ELK 912B Isolation Relay.

Isolation Relay

 

- Installation of an ELK 912B Isolation relay is recommended 

to prevent electrical damage to the Red Gate, Isolation relay is 

sold separately.

Locking Relay

 

- Connect the ELK 912B Isolation relay to the Red Gate by 

connecting the positive wire into a positive port and the negative wire into 
the NO port on the board.

Jumper

 

- Use the designated jumper(s) to energize the relay output to be NO 

by placing the jumper on the negative (-) and center pins.
