NTRODUCTION
The expander is designed to operate in RACS 5 system as peripheral device
connected to RS485 bus of MC16 access controller. MCX2D expander enables
to control up to two doors by MC16 controller while MCX4D expander enables to
control up to four doors by MC16 controller. MCX2D expander is installed in
MC16-PAC-2-KIT while MCX4D expander is installed in MC16-PAC-3-KIT and
MC16-PAC-4-KIT.
Factory new device is configured with default settings including ID=100 address.
Programming of
expander’s configuration parameters is optional and is not
necessary in most cases. Configuration of the expander with RogerVDM requires
RUD-1 interface.

EMORY RESET PROCEDURE AND MANUAL ADDRESSING
Memory reset procedure resets all settings to factory default ones and it enables
to manually configure the address on RS485 bus.
1. Remove all connections from LCK1 and DC1 lines.
2. Place jumper on MEM contacts (fig. 3).
3. Connect LCK1 and DC1 lines.
4. Restart the device by pressing RST button and ACL LED indicator will
pulsate.
5. Disconnect LCK1 and DC1 lines and RUN LED indicator will pulsate. The
number of consecutive flashes will correspond to expander’s address on
RS485 bus.
6. Press RST button in a certain moment to select certain address (table 1) or
press RST button after 16 flashes when ACL and RUN LED indicators are
switched on to select default ID=100 address.
7. Remove jumper from MEM contacts and restart the device.
