OVERVIEW
The
AL-IME2-POE
is a " Power Over Ethernet"
Gateway
device used within the Trilogy Networx
™
wireless system. Installation is simple, with the
AL-
IME2-POE
only requiring access to one RJ-45
Ethernet network cable.
Version
2
The
AL-IME2-POE
" version 2" Gateways (notice the
"
2
" in the model name) are the next generation of Net-
worx Gateways. The "version 2" models are virtually
the same as the original "version 1" Gateways, but
have the added ability to expand your system with up
to 7 Expanders (model
AL-IME2-EXP
Expanders
cannot communicate with older "non-version 2" Gate-
ways).
Note:
Version 2 Gateways CAN be mixed into
an existing system that includes older "non-version 2"
Gateways.
IMPORTANT:
DL-Windows version 5.4.2
or later is
required to support version 2 Gateways and Expand-
ers.
The
AL-IME2-POE
Gateway is compatible with
Alarm Lock and Continental Access products. Refer
to the documentation supplied with your software for
integration details.
Blue ID Card
We strongly recommend that when installing any mod-
el Gateway, a
blue-colored
" Gateway ID
Card" (OI357) be completed. Gateway physical loca-
tions may easily be forgotten. These ID cards may
prove very useful when replacing Gateways, when se-
lecting a particular Gateway to use to discover locks,
or whenever an installed Gateway needs to be physi-
cally located.

GATEWAY LOCATION GUIDELINES
Before selecting a final mounting location for your
Gateway, the following must be taken into considera-
tion:
Gateways should be located within 175 feet (radially)
from the intended wireless lock locations
Open areas will increase range while concrete
building construction, walls, ceilings and narrow
corridors will decrease range
ArchiTech series locks generally have shorter
range to/from a Gateway
Generally, the Gateway should be within approxi-
mately 75 feet (radially) from an
AL-IME2-EXP
Ex-
pander (see WI2156)
Select a location that allows access to an RJ-45 net-
work Ethernet cable connection

Networx
Signal Meter
tool can help you
perform a site survey test of the
premises to find the optimum
location for Gateways relative to
Networx locks; as well as determine the
optimum number of Gateways (or
Expanders) needed for signal area
coverage. See WI2092 or speak to
your Alarm Lock sales representative
for more information.
