• Mandatory module.
• Connects up to two doors
using the 10 pin Wiegand
reader port, which can be
configured as two
five-pin ports.

• Power-over-Ethernet
(POE) or 12 through 24V
DC
• Two Ethernet ports
• Three output ports:
Form C contacts rated at
5A 30VDC
• Three supervised input
ports
2
• Tamper & Power Fail
inputs (can be configured
as additional
unsupervised inputs)
• One RS-485 serial port
(not supported in this
release).
1. The modules are connected using the CAN1 interface. The CAN2 interface is not supported in this release.
2. A supervised input supports four states: normal, alarm, open and short. An unsupervised input only indicates normal or alarm.
