Fire Doors
This function allows a group of doors (or all doors) to be configured for fire override. A
0Volt signal from a fire alarm (or other) system is applied to the AUX input on door 1. This
maintains normal operation. When the 0Volt signal is removed, the selected doors are held
open until the 0Volt signal is re-applied. Typically, a normally-closed relay on the fire panel,
with the common connected to 0Volts, is used for this purpose (see the Fire Override diagram
on page 26). Please note that this facility is present for convenience only, it does not remove
the need to have an alternate mechanical means of escape.
User Tracking (ACT2000 Only)
• If Perimeter doors are defined, then the users are tracked but not restricted.
• If Antipassback doors are defined, then these define the tracking area (Perimeter doors are
ignored). Users are allowed entry to the area only if they have previously exited.
• Tracking Reset is used to auto-reset (log all users out) at a specific time each day, or may
be reset manually. In addition users may be individually logged in or out. This is recorded
in the system log.
• Two User Limits A & B may be configured. These can be used to generate outputs when
the number of users in the area reaches a certain level. This may be used for certain
security critical areas. In addition an output may be configured to operate when any users
are present within the area. This could be used to switch on or off certain equipment when
the area is empty. The larger of the two limits is also used to determine how many tracked
users to admit into the antipassback area. Once this limit is reached, access is denied to
other tracked users. This could be used in a car-park application. User Limiting must be
enabled for this to operate (see System Settings > Operation).
Outputs (ACT2000 Only)
The ACT2000 has 6 onboard outputs that can operate in addition to the local relay. These are
the open collector outputs OP2 and OP3 (for doors 1 and 2) as well as the two auxiliary 1A
relays. Normally these outputs function as for any door, according to the programmed user
and/or door settings. However the onboard outputs on the ACT2000 may be given alternate
functions as outlined below.
AUX
AUX Any Door
Auxiliary relay (1) activates when the auxiliary relay is
activated for any door on the controller.
OP2
Tech Fault
Open collector output OP2 (1) activates when a technical
fault condition exists (tamper/mains fail/door offline).
Door 1
OP3
Any Door Open
Open collector output OP3 (1) activates when any door on
the controller is open.
AUX
Users Present
Auxiliary relay (2) activates when one or more users are
logged in to the system.
OP2
User Limit A
Open collector output OP2 (1) deactivates when the number
of users logged in is at or above User Limit A.
Door 2
OP3
User Limit B
Open collector output OP3 (1) deactivates when the number
of users logged in is at or above User Limit B.
