69 - Access Control (cont'd)
69.3 = DCM
This option is used to program the Galaxy Door Control Module (DCM) access control readers. The DCM
can be fully integrated into the system, communicating on the AB lines and fully utilising the facilities of the
Galaxy control panel. Each DCM can control up to two readers. The exit reader can be replaced with a
request to exit button.
When enabled, the options that are eligible for DCM programming are made available throughout the menu,
otherwise they do not appear, or appear as Option not Available.
Addressing the DCM
The DCM takes its address from a rotary hex switch on-board or by setting with DIP switches. Refer to
Section 5, Access Control, Door Control Module.
69.3.1 = DCM Parameters
This option defines the individual operational features of each of the Door Control Modules. On selecting this
option the address of the first DCM on the system is displayed along with the descriptor currently assigned to
it. If there are no DCM's on the system the message NO ENTRIES is displayed.
Select the required DCM address using the A and B keys pressing the ent key. The first parameter,
1 = Descriptor is displayed. Use the A or B keys to move to the required parameter and press the ent key.
1 = Descriptor
This option is used to assign a name of up to 9 characters to each of the DCM's. This name is assembled from
the character set and/or library options. On selecting the Descriptor parameter the currently assigned name is
displayed on the top line - an underscore shows where the next character will be positioned, and a selection of
the alphabet is shown on the bottom line - the cursor flashes on the letter L.
Press the key to erase the characters already assigned to the name.
The A or B keys can be used to move the alphabet left or right until the required character is positioned
underneath the flashing cursor. When the required character is in position press the ent key to copy the char-
acter to the description in the top line. Repeat this procedure to assemble the required Descriptor.
2 = Operation
This option determines how the DCM will operate. There are three choices;
0 = Entry and Exit
This option provides entry at one reader and exit at another reader.
1 = Entry and Entry
This option provides entry only at both readers
2 = Single entry
This option means that one reader is connected and its type is entry.
3 = System Group
This is the group that the DCM will report on for module tampers and diagnostics.
