Introduction
This installation manual provides instructions and technical specifications for physical installation of the Protege
GX DIN Rail Integrated System Controller. For system communication and programming information, see the
Protege GX Integrated System Controller Configuration Guide, available from the ICT website.
About This Module
The Protege GX DIN Rail Integrated System Controller is the central processing unit responsible for the control of
security, access control and building automation in the Protege GX system. It communicates with all system
modules, stores all configuration and transaction information, processes all system communication, and reports
alarms and system activity to a monitoring station or remote computer.
Protege GX is an enterprise level integrated access control, intrusion detection and building automation solution
with a feature set that is easy to operate, simple to integrate and effortless to extend.
Flexible module network architecture allows large numbers of modules to be connected to the RS-485 module
network. Up to 250 modules can be connected to the Protege system in any combination to the network, over a
distance of up to 900M (3000ft). Further span can be achieved with the use of a network repeater module.
The current features of the controller include:
⦁ Internal industry standard 10/100 ethernet
⦁ 32 Bit advanced RISC processor with 2Gb total memory
⦁ Encrypted module network using RS-485 communication
⦁ NIST Certified AES 128, 192 and 256 Bit Encryption
⦁ Factory loaded HTTPScertificate
⦁ OSDPconfigurable RS-485
⦁ 8 high security monitored inputs
⦁ 4 open collector outputs
⦁ 2 Form C Relay outputs
⦁ Built-in offsite communications dialer (Contact ID or SIA) available with modem editions
⦁ Industry standard DIN rail mounting
Controller Editions
There are two editions of the PRT-CTRL-DIN controller:
⦁ The PRT-CTRL-DIN includes a built-in 2400bps modem dialer, which allows it to communicate alarms and
upload information to remote systems using Contact ID or SIA protocols. It can also communicate over IP, or
via connection to the PRT-4G-USB DINRail Cellular Modem.
⦁ The PRT-CTRL-DIN-IP does not include a built-in modem. It can communicate alarms and upload information
to remote systems over IP,or via connection to the PRT-4G-USB DINRail Cellular Modem.
The features specific to the panel modem interface described in this manual are only relevant for the appropriate
controller edition.
