1 - How to reset the controller.
Q
- See Main Text
2 - Two readers on the same controller.
Q
Simply wire the PROXIMITY or CARDLOCK readers in parallel, colour for colour. It is possible to mix 5V
Q
and 12V readers. The jumper on the Switch2 must be set to provide 5V at the Red terminal and the
Q
12V reader must then be powered directly from the 12V terminal.
3. - Replacing a white labelled control unit. (pre 2004 design)
Q
On a White labelled unit the Red voltage terminal output was 5V DC. The new Yellow labelled unit has
Q
this output set to 12V DC. For systems where 5V readers/keypads are to be used, readers must not be
Q
connected to yellow label controllers until the jumper setting has been changed on the controller PCB.
Q
NOTE: The Touchlock membrane keypad is not compatible with this control unit.
4 - Initialising with 2 keypads.
Q
Either Keypad can be used to initialise the controller when using K-Series Keypads. Connect all wires in
Q
parallel, colour for colour. If you are using the older Touchlock/SS then you must use the master keypad
Q
which has the yellow wire connected to yellow terminal. (The slave keypad will have the yellow wire
Q
connected to the mauve terminal.)
5 - Bell/Alarm Output.
Q
A 12V DC alarm sounder can be wired between the 12V and Bell terminals. This output is capable of
Q
driving a 12V bell/buzzer up to 1A. This load must be taken into consideration when selecting a suitable
Q
rated power supply. If door contacts are fitted on a Switch2 system, across the Black and Contacts
Q
terminals, the bell/alarm output is activated when the door is forced. On a Switch2 system using a
Q
keypad, the bell would normally activate this output. However, when using a door forced alarm, the bell
Q
on a keypad will not activate the bell/buzzer connected to this output.
