Section 1
Introduction
The APD8(F) is an access control power distribution system providing eight relay controlled,
individually protected outputs. The ADP8 provides Class-2 power limited outputs via PTC protection,
while the APD8F uses fuse protected outputs. Either system can be operated from 12V or 24V AC or
DC and features independently programmable outputs, a variety of input option modes, Fire Alarm
Interface and visual status indication.
Systems Integrator applications include mag lock and door strike control, reader power, request to
exit device power, and system power. The diversity, flexibility and level of system isolation provided by
the APD8(F) make this unit a universal toolbox for access control applications.
