MAX
4
reader
The MAX
4
is a proximity reader access control device for a single door, which can also be
used for setting and unsetting your alarm control panel. The MAX
4
can be configured in one
of two ways:
Standalone
In standalone mode the MAX
4
operates as an entirely independent unit and is not monitored
by the control panel for alarms, tampers or power failure. The MAX
4
, in this mode, is used
for door control or alarm system set/unset control, by connecting the internal relay output to
a door lock or an external relay. It is programmed and operated using MAX
4
proximity cards
or tags. The proximity cards and tags each have unique ID numbers and must be identified
to the MAX
4
before being used to operate the system. MAX
4
memory can store up to 999 ID
numbers, including at least three reserved for Masters. Once programmed, the ID numbers
of the tags and cards are stored in the MAX
4
memory until voided (removed) or erased.
Removing power from the MAX
4
does not erase the programming memory.
Note: The MAX
4
defaults to standalone mode. It can be configured to online mode directly
f
rom the control panel.
Online
The MAX
4
can operate in fully integrated online mode with the control panel,
communicating via the AB line to share system resources and facilities. In this configuration
the MAX
4
can be used for both door control and alarm system set/unset control, with
complete user traceability stored within the control panel. For detailed instructions on how
to program the MAX
4
onto the system, refer to the MAX [69.2] menu option.
