These are free inputs that can be used for various functions. The following
should be defined:
Single door controller:
Door 1 – IN 2
Door 1 – IN 2A
Double door controller:

General purpose inputs are suitable for most uses. For example, they might be
used to detect tampering, to activate alarm sensors or for monitoring power
supply failure.
4.3 Outputs
Rosslare Security recommends the use of suppression diodes for all outputs
that activate an inductive load.
Door Lock
There are two types of door locking devices:
 Fail open (fail secure)
 Fail close (fail safe)
The following should be defined:
Single door controller:
Door 1 – OUT 1
Double door controller:
Door 1 – OUT 1
Door 2 – OUT 2
The output can sink current from any power supply (see Section 3.4).
For UL installations, the installer must configure the system as fail-safe to
comply with NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) regulations.
4.4 Card Readers and Keypads
Each access control panel can be connected to a maximum of two readers.
There are three available types of reader:
 Card readers

A keypad is required for any reader mode that requires PIN code entries, such
as "Card or PIN", "PIN Only" or "Card and PIN (Secured mode)".
