Configuration

8.1 Conventional connections
The ACS-8 controls the access to a room and the use of an additional interior reader extends the use to
control the exit from a room. The readers used must both use the same reading principle (magnetic card
reader, contactless / proximity reader or chip card readers).
Using the door monitoring contact, the ACS-8 recognizes whether the door was opened, was open too long
or was opened by force.
Configuration example 1:
A reader controls only access to a room. The room can be
exited without identification. The door lock can be released
manually by a push-button in the secured zone.
Configuration example 2:
Both the access to and exit from a room, are controlled by
separate readers.
The "antipassback" option can be activated and consequently,
the current location of personnel can be found.
Configuration example 3:
The ACS-8 can also be operated in the "turnstile" mode.
In this case, a turnstile is controlled instead of the door strike.
The door strike relay 1 is used for the first direction of rotation
and the door strike relay 2 is used for the second direction of
rotation.
In combination with IQ MultiAccess an ACS-8 can
control a maximum of 4 doors. This means that all
onboard relays are used as door strike relays. Two
readers can be connected onboard via clock/data, the
remaining readers must be used in RS 485 mode and
are to be connected via the module bus
(communication module required).
