Input and Output Connections
This chapter describes the AC-215IP access control panel's input and output
connections.
4.1
Input Types
There are four input types – Normally Open, Normally Closed, Normally Open
Supervised 1 or 2 resistors, and Normally Closed Supervised 1 or 2 resistors.
Inputs IN1, IN1A, IN2 and IN2A may be configured individually as either
supervised or non-supervised inputs. Configure each input separately via the
AxTraxNG™ system.
Non-supervised inputs have two states:
Normal State
Abnormal State
Supervised inputs have three states:
Normal State
Abnormal State
Trouble State
The Trouble state is caused by either tampering with the input circuit or by
faulty hardware installation. Once configured as supervised input, add a
resistor of 2.2K, of 8.2K, or both on the input circuit. See the figures in the
following subsections.
4.1.1
Normally Open Input Connection:
Normally Open Input has 2 states:
Switch Open – Normal State:
Loop resistance = Infinite (open circuit)
Switch Closed – Abnormal State:
Loop resistance = 0 (short circuit)
