5.3 Door Contact Connection
The Protégé® SE Integrated System Controller allows the connection of up to 4x contacts for
monitoring and controlling access control doors. Each zone on the reader expander can be used
for the door function that is automatically assigned and as a normal zone input on the system. The
following example shows the connection of a normally closed door position monitoring contact to
monitor the Open, Closed, Forced and Alarm conditions of the door.
The zones 9-12 and 13-16 can operate as either general purpose zone inputs or as onboard reader
inputs. If used as general purpose zone inputs then make sure that these input are not defined in
the onboard reader set up.

When connected the REX Input can be programmed to operate regardless of the
Door Contact State. The REX Input can also be programmed to recycle the door
alarm time to prevent nuisance alarms when the door is held open to permit longer
entry.
