Introduction
This manual covers the physical installation process for SU4500 Optical Turnstile. A separate SU4500 User Guide provides
operating instructions and additional information such as conguring turnstiles for bi-directional passage applications and
monitoring outputs. It is highly recommended that both this manual and the SU4500 User Guide be read in their entirety prior to
beginning installation.
There are three types of SU4500 cabinets used to create passage lanes: a Main cabinet, a Secondary cabinet, and a center
(expansion) cabinet. A single passage lane consists of a Main cabinet and a Secondary cabinet [Figure 1A]. The center cabinet is
used to create additional passage lanes with the addition of a single cabinet [Figure 1B].
Each cabinet has an unsecured and secured side. Alvarado follows what we call the “right-hand rule." User status lights and card
readers are always installed on the right-hand side as you enter the turnstile.
SU4500 Cabinets
The center portion of the Main cabinet contains the main
turnstile controller, I/O control board, motor and motor control
board, power supply, safety sensor receivers, one moving
barrier, and a power switch located at the base on the secured
side.
The top channel of the Main cabinet contains the operational
sensor receivers, a Free Pass sensor, a drive system, and a
user status display that communicates lane status to the user. A
card reader is normally installed during installation underneath
the lid below the user status display.
Center cabinets contain both Main and Secondary
components. Center cabinets are extension cabinets used
in multi-lane applications. An unlimited number of center
cabinets can be added.
The center portion of the center cabinet contains the main
turnstile controller, I/O control board, two motors and two
motor control boards, power supply, safety sensors for both
the Main and Secondary side of the center cabinet, two
moving barriers, and a power switch located at the base on
the secured side of the Main side.
The top channel of the center cabinet contains Main and
Secondary side operational sensors, a Free Pass sensor, two
drive systems, and two user status displays that communicate
lane status to the user. Two card readers are normally
installed during installation underneath the lid below the user
status display on both sides of the center cabinet top channel.
The center portion of the Secondary cabinet contains a motor
and motor control board, safety sensor transmitters, and one
moving barrier.
The top channel of the Secondary cabinet contains the
operational sensor transmitters, a drive system, and a user
status display that communicates lane status to the user. A card
reader is normally installed during installation underneath the lid
below the user status display.

Access Control Integration
Single passage activation and the various other inputs and outputs available to / from the SU4500 are accessed through the I/O
control board located in the Main cabinet. The required system input is a voltage-free, momentary dry contact. Outputs are also
provided in this form. In rare cases, depending on the access control system, it may be desirable to utilize isolation relays to ensure
proper system signaling. Additional information on I/O interfacing is provided later in this manual.
For select projects, a TCP/IP interface is available. This interface allows a third party access system to communicate to / from
the SU4500 using a dened TCP/IP command structure. There is an additional charge for implementation and use of the TCP/IP
interface and implementation requires programming e󰀨orts on the part of the access system provider. Instructions pertaining to the
TCP/IP interface is outside the scope of this manual.
There are two types of interfaces to allow an access control system to operate with the SU4500:
Dry Contact
TCP/IP
Network Communication
SU4500 turnstiles are TCP/IP enabled. Running Ethernet cabling to the SU4500 provides a number of benets. (1) It allows
implementation of Alvarado’s TCP/IP control and monitoring software. (2) It allows easy implementation of SU4500 application
software updates and enhancements. If the SU4500s are networked, updates can be installed over the network. (3) Alvarado has
future plans to further develop the TCP/IP capabilities of the SU4500. The benets of this future development can only be realized
if the turnstiles are networked.

User Training
Pre-Installation Checklist
Signal Inputs and Outputs To / From Access Control System
Inputs - Signal inputs from outside systems are wired into the SU4500’s I/O control board. There are two types of input
signals, momentary dry contacts (MDC) and sustained dry contacts (SDC). All input signals must be normally open, voltage-
free, dry contacts, with the exception of the re alarm input, which can be congured (via jumper on the I/O control board) to
accept either a normally open or normally closed sustained contact. MDC’s must be at least 100ms in duration to register.
While the SU4500 can accept signals up to 2 seconds in duration, the suggested MDC input duration is 1 second or less to
support rapid throughput in high volume applications.
Outputs – Signal outputs are available from the SU4500’s I/O control board. Outputs are normally open, voltage-free,
momentary dry contacts. The output signal length is 500ms in duration.
Inability to Provide Specied Inputs - If the access system cannot provide the specied MDCs, isolation relays should be
used. NEVER connect signal lines containing voltage directly to the I/O control board.
Network Communication
A networked PC with Alvarado's TCP/IP control and monitoring software is required. Adhere to IEEE standards for network cabling
requirements.
It is the installer's responsibility to ensure the following steps are completed before beginning the installation.
Card readers or other physical access devices may be installed under the top channel lid on either or both right-hand sides of the
turnstile. Card readers / physical access devices are not supplied by Alvarado.
All personnel that will be involved with operating the SU4500 should be trained in the proper method of operation. Detailed
operation instructions are outside the scope of this manual, but can be found in the SU4500 User Guide (also included with the
product). If further training is desired, contact Alvarado for information regarding on-site training services.
1. All components and hardware to be installed have been unpacked, correctly identied, and moved to the installation location.
2. The turnstile conguration and layout has been conrmed with the site manager.
3. All applicable requirements in the Before You Begin section have been met.

1. Remove the turnstile cabinets from the wooden skids.
2. Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the L-bracket attached to the bottom edge of the stationary panels. Discard the bracket.
3. Place the Main cabinet and the Secondary cabinet in the determined location [see dimensions - Figure 4].
4. All cabinets must be level and square to each other. This will ensure that the optical sensors are aligned, and that the barriers
will line up properly when installed. Use the following procedures to level the cabinets, and square each cabinet with respect to
the oor and other cabinets:
A. Measure the distance from the inside wall of one cabinet
top channel to the inside wall of the other cabinet top
channel, on both the entry and exit side of the lane for a
consistent measurement [Figure 7A].
B. Measure the diagonal distance from the end of one
cabinet to the end of the opposing cabinet, then
measure the opposing diagonal distance [Figure 7B]. If
these distances are equal, the cabinets are square.
C. Using a level, verify each cabinet is level [Figure 7C]. If
necessary, shim to bring the cabinets level.

Most card readers do not require separate power inputs. In the event that your reader requires a separate power input – do not
draw power from the SU4500 power supply.
Access control boards used in conjunction with the SU4500 are to be installed at locations outside of the SU4500, such as a wiring
closet or other location.
NOTE
If the distance between the installed card reader and top channel lid exceeds the read range of the card reader, shims may be
used to elevate the card reader by a maximum of 3/8" (9.5mm).

24VDC Power and
Ground Wire (tucked in
the bottom of the cabinet)
The included crossover cable carries communication signals and
low-voltage 24VDC between the Main and Secondary cabinets. The
default length of the crossover cable included with the SU4500 is 8'.
Optional crossover cable lengths of 13', 20' and 40' are available; as
well crossover cables for conduits smaller than 1.5".
1. Locate the low-voltage terminal block tucked in the bottom of the
base in the Main cabinet [Figure 13].
2. Insert the 24VDC positive wire (orange) and the negative wire
(black) into the terminal block, matching the colors with the other
side and tighten [Figure 13].
3. Connect the data connector from the crossover cable to the data
connector in the Main cabinet [Figure 13].
4. Repeat Steps 1 – 3 for the Secondary cabinet.
The crossover cable must connect from Main to Secondary.
Center cabinets have two crossover cable connectors tucked in
the base: one labeled Main and one labeled Secondary.
Refer to Appendix E for crossover cable connection diagrams.

Signal Inputs and Outputs
To / From Access Control System
Inputs
Signal inputs from outside systems
are wired into the SU4500’s I/O control
board. There are two types of input
signals, momentary dry contacts (MDC)
and sustained dry contacts (SDC). All
input signals must be normally open
(N.O.), voltage-free, dry contacts, with
the exception of the re alarm input,
which can be congured (via jumper
on the I/O control board) to accept
either a normally open or normally
closed (N.C.) sustained contact. MDC’s
must be at least 100ms in duration to
register. While the SU4500 can accept
signals up to 2 seconds in duration,
the suggested MDC input duration
is 1 second or less to support rapid
throughput in high volume applications.
Outputs
Signal outputs are available from the
SU4500’s I/O control board. Outputs
are normally open, voltage-free,
momentary dry contacts. The output
signal length is 500ms in duration.
Inability to Provide Specied Inputs
If the access system cannot provide the
specied MDCs, isolation relays should
be used. NEVER connect signal lines
containing voltage directly to the I/O
control board.
