Section 3: System Configuration

This section explains how to configure your Profile Series vN.1 Access Control Lock

system. Each sub-section describes the various configuration options. At the end

section 3 there is a chart that shows all the dip-switch settings for quick reference.

3.1 Selecting the Reader Address

One Interface Module can support from one to four Readers. You must assign each

Reader an address before you connect it to the Interface Module. Each Reader must

have a different address assigned to it. This enables the Interface Module to distinguish

each Reader from one another. The Reader address is selected by configuring dip-

switches 1 and 2 on switch SW2 on the rear of the Reader board. The chart below

shows these switch settings.

Reader Address Switch 1 Switch 2

Reader #1 Open Open

Reader #2 Closed Open

Reader #3 Open Closed

Reader #4 Closed Closed

Once you’ve assigned the Reader addresses you now must configure the Interface

Module to communicate with them. This is done by selecting which Readers are

connected using dip-switches 1 through 4 on switch S2 on the Interface Module. To

select a Reader close the corresponding switch and if a Reader is not connected leave

the switch open. The chart below shows these switch settings.
