1: BEFORE YOU BEGIN To install an ISONAS Reader-controller unit, you must complete three key wiring tasks: 1.1. Mount the PureIP reader in the appropriate location. Recommended locations and wiring methods shall be in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. 1.2. Supply power to the PureIP reader. This may be accomplished with power being provided on the Ethernet data cable (Power over Ethernet [POE / POE+) or through an external DC power source (12VD).
1.2: PureIP RC (PureIP RC) SPECIFICATIONS: Input Voltage 12 VDC (8.0V absolute minimum to 14.5V absolute maximum) Input Current Draw (Without external loads) Supplied Power for External Devices (when PoE power is being used) Read Range Read Speed Exciter Field Frequency Modulation Schemes Communication Interface Inputs Outputs Standalone Memory Capacity Visual Indicators Operating Temperatures Weight Size PoE per IEEE 802.3af PoE: 2.3 watts 12VDC: 150 mA 0.
1.3: INSTALLATION LOCATION GUIDELINES When selecting the location where you are going to mount the ISONAS reader-controller, a few guidelines should be observed. 1) The reader-controller should be kept at least 2 feet from another ISONAS reader-controller, and 6 feet from any other RF emitting device. 2) In an exterior location, the reader-controller’s mounting should be sealed to prevent water from running down between the mounting surface and the back of the reader-controller.

1.4: INSTALLER TOOLKIT COMPONENTS Before an installer goes to a customer site, they need to put together their supplies and tool-kit. The ISONAS solution is simpler to install than other Access Control Systems, but materials are still needed. And some of those materials may be different than what you are use to carrying. The list below identifies some important items that you should make sure to bring with you, to the customer’s site.
1.6: PUREIP RC RESET BUTTON The PureIP RC has a Reset Button located on the back. It can be used for two different types of resets. It is helpful if the PureIP’s Ethernet cable is connected, and functioning (the network status LED is lit). Monitoring the RC04’s main status LED allows you to determine the status of the reset operation. Reset CPU: Press, hold (approx. 2 seconds) and release the Reset button. Once the Reset Button is released, the Amber LAN Status LED should turn off (approx.
2: WIRING AT THE DOOR AND READER-CONTROLLER 2.1: POWERING THE READER-CONTROLLERS All ISONAS Reader-controller models require a direct connection to a power source. The PureIP RCs can be powered with 12 volts DC or PoE (IEEE 802.3af) power and the supply must be regulated. Many brands of power sources work well with ISONAS equipment. 2.1.1: POWER OVER ETHERNET (PoE) OPTION If you are installing ISONAS PureIP RCs, then you can use the Power Over Ethernet (PoE) option.
A standard CAT5 cable is then run between the PoE source (Injector or switch) and the PureIP RC which will be located right next to the door. The CAT5 cable can be up to 100 Meters (328 feet) long. Supplying 12 VDC to Door Components from the PoE powered PureIP RC When the PureIP RC is powered by PoE, the reader can supply 0.6 amps @12 VDC power for external components. This DC power is available via two pigtail wires. The Red pigtail wire is typically used to control the door’s lock.
PoE Power Budget Calculations When planning an installation using PoE, you need to assure that the PoE source (PoE Injector or PoE equipped Network Switch) supplying the PoE power is sized properly for the power draw of all the doors. To do this, you total up the power draw (in watts) of the PoE connections, and compare that total power draw to the rated capacity of the PoE source. Below is a chart of expected PoE power draws of the ISONAS Reader-controllers.
The different options require different configurations of the supporting equipment and /or building wiring. The following chart and Figure 4 describes some of these power options. Power Source PoE (802.3af) PoE (802.3af) Switchable Equipment at Power the Door (Max) 0.60 amps PureIP (12VDC) 0.55 amps PureIP (12VDC) EDK DC Power Supply 12 VDC 3.0 amps (12VDC) PureIP EDK High-Powered PoE (802.3at) 1.

2.2: WIRING THE DOORS After you connect power to every Reader-controller, the next step is to connect the wiring at each door. Wiring a door may involve connecting: An electronic door latch A request to exit (REX) like: REX Button Motion Detector Door sensors Figure 5 shows the typical configuration of equipment at the door.
2.2.1: READER-CONTROLLER CONTROL-LEADS DESCRIPTION The reader-controller has a cable extending from its back plate that is referred to as “the pigtail”. The pigtail consists of 8 wire leads (22 awg) which are used to connect to the various components at the door location. Most installations do not require the use of all the leads. The typical usage of each available lead is shown in Figure 6. Figure 6 One of the wires is for a door sense switch.
2.2.2: LOCK WIRING -- BASIC Electronic door lock Overview: If the door does not already have an electronic lock, first install the lock hardware according to the manufacturer's instructions. Examine the lock to determine whether applying power will lock or unlock the door. Installation Tip Fail Safe: Applying power locks the door For non-PoE installations: (usually magnetic locks). Fail Secure: Applying power unlocks the door (usually electric strike locks).
Lock Wiring, using PoE: The PureIP supports a simplified configuration when PoE is being used to supply the lock’s power. 1. Connect the Red wire on the ISONAS Reader-controller to one lead of the electric lock. See Figure 7 2. Connect the other lead of the lock to the black wire on the ISONAS reader-controller. 3. See this manual’s BackEMF diode section for more info regarding the use of the BackEMF diode.
2.2.3: WIRING THE REX/AUX INPUT The PureIP RC ’s REX / AUX input expects a momentary closure. You can generate this signal with a pushbutton, infrared motion detector, or other simple device. The host computer configures the reader to know if the input’s action is treated as a REX event or an AUX event. Typically the REX is placed adjacent to the door so that people can press the button and let themselves out the door without setting off the alarm.
2.2.5: WIRING THE DOOR SENSE Connecting the ISONAS Reader-controller to a door sensor allows the host software to determine whether that door is physically open. Then the host system can create alarms based on the door’s state. This wiring task is similar to wiring the REX / AUX input. About the Door Sense First, connect one terminal of the door sensor to the Reader's blue wire. Then connect the door sensor's other terminal to the Reader's common ground wire (brown).
2.2.7: LOCK WIRING -- EXTERIOR DOOR KIT The PureIP RC has an optional Exterior Door Kit (EDK), which allows you to isolate the door’s lock control circuitry on the secure side of the building. The EDK contains a form-C relay with drycontracts that are rated for 3 amps of current @ 30 Volts. It can also be used in cases where the reader-controller is switching an externally supplied voltage or an external control signal.
The 2nd example shows powering the EDK with the Reader-controller’s PoE power output, and the lock with an external 24 volt power supply.
2.2.8: EDK LED STATUS INDEX The EDK has two status LEDs Power LED: Located on the side towards the PureIP’s pigtail. A Red LED indicates 12VDC power is being supplied to the EDK. Communication Status LED: Located on the side towards the Lock wiring. LED status meaning are described in the table below.
2.2.9: LOCK WIRING -- 2 READERS TO 1 LOCK If you are wiring both sides of the door to control IN and OUT access, then you will have the special condition of wiring 2 Reader-Controllers to a single locking mechanism. The “Inside” Reader controls the door, and is wired to the door’s components, such as the lock and Door-sense switch. Use the following steps to cause the “outside” Reader to activate the REX input on the “Inside” Reader. Two Readers & One Lock Wiring Steps: See Figure 12 1.
2.2.15: MANAGING INDUCTIVE LOAD CHALLANGES Most door latches use a relay coil that powers up and down, when the door is unlocked and locked. When this happens, a pulse of electrical energy is produced by the lock’s coil. This pulse is called back EMF, and can interfere with the reader’s operation. Switching off a typical 12 VDC relay coil can produce a back EMF pulse of 300 volts or more.

3: CONFIGURING THE READER-CONTROLLER’S COMMUNICATIONS The Reader-controllers communicates with the ISONAS PureAccess software over the organization's data network. 3.1: ETHERNET-BASED TCP/IP READER-CONTROLLERS There are many Ethernet network topology permutations, too many topologies to cover in this guide. Here are two common Ethernet configurations used by ISONAS customers: PureIP RCs to PureAccess-Cloud Software: This is the simplest type of network connection.
3.2: SECURING MESSAGES ON YOUR NETWORK You can configure ISONAS Readers and software to secure each and every message to and from the Reader using Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). When you enable AES in both an ISONAS Reader-controller and the PureAccess software, every message to and from that Reader-controller is encrypted. Therefore, anyone who manages to hack into your data network would still face a daunting task to decrypt the actual messages to the reader-controllers.
