Systems | AMC2 - Input/Output Extension Boards

The AMC2 16I-16O-EXT, the AMC2 16I-EXT and/or the

AMC2 8I‑8O-EXT extension boards can only be used with

the AMC2 access controller and provides additional input

and output contacts.

The AMC2 controller has eight input and eight output

signals. The AMC2 determines the door status (open or

closed) via the analog input signals. The relay outputs can

be used to activate locking mechanisms, for example.

If there are not enough contacts available on the AMC2 to

transfer the necessary signals, up to three AMC2 xI-xO-EXT

units can be connected to provide additional inputs and

outputs.

Note Systems with Access Personal Edition

Software can only connect one I/O-Extension

to an AMC2 Controller.

The electronics are located in a plastic housing, similar to

the one on the AMC2 controller.

The AMC2 16I-16O-EXT has 16 analog inputs and 16 relay

outputs. It receives door status signals via the inputs and

can authorize door releases or send messages to external

surveillance systems via the outputs.

Reduced versions of the extension board are also

obtainable to make full use of the available signals. The

AMC2 8I-8O-EXT module has eight input and eight output

signals. The AMC2 16I-EXT has 16 analog inputs.

System Overview

The AMC2 xxx-EXT is integrated into the system via the

AMC2 controller.

1 = Host computer

2 = AMC2

3 = Card reader

4 = Communication and power supply

5 = AMC2 xxx-EXT

In the default configuration, the connection to the AMC2 is

established via the RS485 interface.

| AMC2 - Input/Output Extension Boards Installation/Configuration Notes Up to three extension boards can be connected to one AMC2 controller; this provides a maximum of 56 input and output signals for configuration with the AMC2 signals. For a system configuration the AMC2 16I-16O-EXT, AMC2 16I-EXT, and AMC2 8I-8O-EXT can also be used in combination, e.g. two AMC2 16I-16O-EXTs and one AMC2 8I-8O-EXT – but the maximum number of modules that can be connected is also restricted to three per AMC2 controller.

AMC2 - Input/Output Extension Boards | 3 Contacts Ordering Information Inputs The analog inputs can be used as digital or analog contacts. For analog use, resistance values can be specified to check for cable breaks and short-circuits. Relay outputs The relay outputs offer the following functions: • • • • The outputs can operate with potential free contacts for external power supply (dry mode). The outputs can operate using the internal voltage of power supply (wet mode).
