7.3 Adding a Client
Some e3 eMerge systems provide the ability to add additional controllers to expand the amount
of doors or elevator control, inputs and outputs. ese additional controllers are referred to as
clients. A client can be mounted on top of the main controller (server) for systems using metal
enclosures or in a separate enclosure.
Mounting a Client to a Server
1. Disconnect power from the controller.
2. Remove the 4 screws securing the shield over the controller.
3. Position the expansion board over the 4 existing stando s and fasten using the stando s
included with the new controller. Do not over-tighten or the expansion controller could be
damaged.
4. Install the shield over the expansion board using the 4 screws removed in Step 2.
5. Connect the client and server to the network and apply power. e client’s power connection
must be connected to the output of the power supervision module or you can use the
approved PoE module. See section 4 in this manual for power connections.
