P a g e |6
network configurations for both ports). 100Base-TX Ethernet data transfer is included on
the AHDU controller. 100Base-TX communication between the AHDU security core allows
users to take full advantage of high-speed network technology.
The AHDU controller series has 3 RS-485 ports on the board, which support port failover
function dedicated on ports 2 & 3. If one of the RS-485 connections experiences problems,
the other port will activate automatically to avoid disconnection.
Supervised Inputs
The AHDU controller series is equipped with 4 state-monitoring inputs, which gradually
avoids short circuit attacks. The AHDU controller can detect abnormal changes as low as
5% Ohms in the circuits and filter out all possible attacks.
REX inputs and dedicated fire alarm inputs are independently managed by isolated
microchips to ensure these inputs can work normally under various extreme and
catastrophic situations, even if the motherboard isn't functioning properly
NC / NO Configurable Ports
All on-board output ports can be configured to change their NO/NC status through the ARMATURA
One security platform, which greatly enhances the flexibility.
