Hardware Reset
A hardware reset clears the unit’s memory and
restores factory default settings. All card
information is deleted except for any Readers
configured into special formats will not be
changed.
To perform a hardware reset:
1.
Switch the unit on.
2.
Link the reset jumper J1 together
(short with jumper provided) for a
few seconds.
3.
Remove the jumper (‘park’ the
jumper on 1 pin only).
Testing the Installation
The installation can be tested without using the computer or software. This allows you to check that the
hardware is correctly connected and configured. In
installer mode, you can check that:
•
The cards will work with the readers.
•
The doors are opened by a card
(any card of the correct reader technology
will activate all doors (relays).
•
Egress buttons open the doors.
To enter installer mode:
Note.
If EXgarde software is already running, disconnect
the communications to the ACU by unplugging the 9-
way connector.
1.
Apply power to the EXpert2. You will need to
reset the unit (see box opposite).
The LED on the reader(s) should start flashing at
about two flashes per second.
2.
To place the ACU into installer mode:
a.
Press the tamper switch down for
5 seconds.
b.
Release the tamper switch for
5 seconds.
c.
Press the tamper switch down again for 5 seconds.
d.
Release the tamper switch again for 5 seconds.
e.
Press the tamper switch down again for 5 seconds.
f.
Release the tamper switch again for 5 seconds – The ACU will bleep once when in Installer
Mode.
The LED on the reader(s) will start flashing at about two flashes per second.
Note.
If a door sensor is fitted to Door 1, the on-board buzzer may sound after 15 seconds. If this
happens it is because the ACU senses that the door is open, and is signalling that the door has
been left open too long. If the door is in fact closed, this can be corrected from the EXgarde
software. Temporarily, silence the buzzer by opening the door or replacing the factory-fitted link
across the door sensor inputs of door 1.
3.
Present a correct technology card to one of the readers. The flashing rate should change to one
flash every two seconds.
4.
Present the card again – relays 1 and 2 should be activated for 5 seconds (until you have run the
software, the ACU has not been configured for one-door or two-door installation). Note that until
the first card is programmed using EXgarde, ANY card of the correct technology will trigger both
relays.
5.
Press an egress button (if fitted) and the associated lock should operate for as long as the button
is pressed, and remain operational for 5 seconds after the button is released.
6.
You can test all the readers, reader ports, relays and locks (if fitted) are working.
7.
When you have completed tests, exit installer mode by:
•
Validating a card using the software or EXkeypad.
•
Performing a hardware reset (see box above).
