This must be wired as a single daisy chain. The converter may be located anywhere along the line.
The ACU's will continue to operate in a 'standalone' mode if the PC is shut down or the data line is disconnected.
Any Events that occur during this period are stored in the ACU and the PC is updated when it comes back online.
The PC must be running for any 'active' functions to operate. (e.g. Fire Door release)
CAT5 or Belden 8723
End of Line Termination
120 ohm resistors must be linked across each data pair at the beginning AND end of the data line. This can be done
on many units with a switch or jumpers. If not, free resistors are provided with the converter. If the data converter is
located at a point along the data line, termination will then be required in the two ACU's at each end of the line.
