e control panel can accept up to 8 readers or keypads. Each reader port on the panel supports a
12VDC reader with Wiegand output format. Readers can be installed as primary (entry) readers
for each door as well as optional secondary (exit) readers.
e maximum power available for individual reader is 750 mA @ 12 VDC with a combined
maximum of 1.5A for the controller. Determine the reader’s power consumption by referring to
the documentation included with the reader. Exceeding the maximum current for individual readers
or for the controller will damage the protection fuses and void the warranty.
