4.1 Post-Installation Checks
Once the ACS-1E or ACS-1EUL Controller has been installed and its card readers, door locks, and other
output devices are in place, the system’s functionality must be thoroughly tested.
4.1.1 Default Settings
Each Controller leaves the Parabit factory after passing a full set of operational tests. Any test configu-
rations are then removed and the controller is returned to its default configuration.
During testing, the Card Reader(s) are mated to the ACS-1E or ACS-1EUL Controller (and Second Card
Reader Board) and checked for operation before boards and readers are separated and packed for
shipping. In order to check the initial operation of the ACS-1E Controller, the installer should know the
default settings, which are listed in the table below.
