OVERVIEW
The
AL-IME2
is a
Gateway
device used within the
Trilogy Networx
™
wireless system. Installation is sim-
ple, with the
AL-IME2
only requiring access to one
RJ-45 Ethernet network cable and connection to an
AC outlet.
Version
2
The
AL-IME2
" version 2" Gateways (notice the "
2
"
in the model name) are the next generation of Networx
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" Gateways).
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
Gateway is compatible with Alarm
Lock and Continental Access products. Refer to the
documentation supplied with your software for integra-
tion 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.
