ACM4CB
Multi-Output Access Power Controllers
Rev. DSACM4CB_11052012
ACM4CB converts one (1) 12 to 24 volt AC or DC input into four (4) inde-
pendently controlled PTC protected outputs. Outputs are activated by an open
collector sink or normally open (NO) dry trigger input from an Access Control
System, Card Reader, Keypad, Push Button, PIR, etc. The ACM4CB will route
power to a variety of access control hardware devices including Mag Locks,
Electric Strikes, Magnetic Door Holders, etc. Outputs will operate in both Fail-
Safe and/or Fail-Secure modes.
Units are designed to be powered by one common power source which will pro-
vide power for both the board operation and locking devices, or two (2) totally
independent power sources, one (1) providing power for board operation and
the other for lock / accessory power. The FACP Interface enables Emergency
Egress, Alarm Monitoring, or may be used to trigger other auxiliary devices.
The fire alarm disconnect feature is individually selectable for any or all of the
four (4) outputs.

Agency Approvals
UL Listed Sub-Assembly for Access Control System Units (UL 294) and
“Signal Equipment” Evaluated to CSA Standard C22.2 No.205-M1983.
Input:
• 12 to 24 volt AC or DC operation
(setting not required), (0.4 amp @ 12volt,
0.2 amp @ 24 volt current consumption with all
relays energized).
• Power supply input options:
a) One (1) common power input
(board and lock power).
b) Two (2) isolated power inputs (one (1) for
board power and one (1) for lock/accessory power).
• Four (4) Access Control System trigger inputs:
a) Four (4) normally open (NO) inputs.
b) Four (4) open collector sink inputs.
c) Any combination of the above.
Output:
• Four (4) independently controlled outputs:
a) Four (4) Fail-Safe and/or Fail-Secure
power outputs.
b) Four (4) dry form “C” 5 amp rated relay outputs
• Output ratings:
- PTCs are rated 3 amp each.
- Main fuse is rated at 10 amp.
Note: Total output current is determined by the
power supply, not to exceed a maximum
of 10 amp total.
Features:
• Fire Alarm disconnect (latching or non-latching) is
individually selectable for any or all of the
four (4) outputs.
• Fire Alarm disconnect input options:
a) Normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC) dry
contact input.
b) Polarity reversal input from FACP signaling circuit.
• FACP output relay (form “C” contact rated @ 1 amp
28VDC not evaluated by UL).
• Removable terminal blocks facilitate ease
of installation.
Visual Indicators:
• Red LEDs indicate outputs are triggered
(relays energized).
