Door Access Control
The Controller provides access control functionality onboard without the requirement for additional hardware.
With 2 access controlled doors built in, the flexibility of the Protege system is expanded even further. The
Controller allows the connection of 2 Wiegand devices to control 2 doors (entry or exit only) or can be
configured in multiplex mode to allow 4 Wiegand devices controlling 2 doors giving the flexibility of entry and exit
readers.

Card Reader Connection
The card reader must be connected to the Controller port using a shielded cable. Always refer to the card
reader manufacturer for detailed installation guidelines. The shield connection must only be connected at one
end of the cable in the metallic enclosure(frame grounded). The beeper output on the Controller provides
diagnostic information to the end user and installer when access is denied or the unit is operating offline.
Warning:
Do not connect the shield to a AUX- or 0V connection.
Do not join the shield and black wires at the reading device.
Do not connect the shield to any shield used for isolated communication.

If the Controller is used with the expansion connector fitted, the second onboard reader port
becomes unavailable.
The Controller does not support dual LED reader mode and readers must be configured for single
LED mode. Refer to your card reader documentation for further details.
