1 Safety
Read instructions
Read all technical documentation before installing or using the
device. Make sure that you have understood all information
described in the technical documentation. Do not ignore safety
messages, as this can cause property or personal damage.
Retain instructions for future reference.
!
Warning!
Risk of physical injury due to blocked escape routes
The access modular controller may block escape routes if not
installed correctly. To keep escape routes free:
- Use locks in fail-safe mode, so that doors will be released if
power fails.
- Install manual override switches, such as break-glass or lever
stations, to unlock doors in an emergency.
!
Warning!
Risk of explosion of lithium battery
The battery can explode if replaced incorrectly.
Replace battery with the same type as recommended by Bosch.
Dispose used batteries according to the instructions of the
manufacturer of the batteries.
!
Caution!
Fire hazard and risk of electric shock due to unauthorized
spare parts and accessories
Unauthorized spare parts and accessories might lack grounding
wires or other safety elements. External power supplies must
be installed and put into service by qualified personnel. The
service technician must use replacement parts or accessories
that are specified by the manufacturer.

Notice!
Device damage due to electrostatic discharge
Protect the hardware from electrostatic discharge, especially
when the device is opened. Always disconnect the controller
from the power source before modifying the installation. The
controller does not support hot-plugging.
Notice!
Unauthorized access
If the access modular controller is installed in an unprotected
environment, unauthorized people may be able to enter.
Install the controller in a location with restricted access.
Notice!
Device damage due to incorrect mounting
The controller can fall and break. Mount the controller on the
matching mounting rails.
This product is RoHS compliant. See Technical data for the full
table of hazardous components.
1.1 Unpacking
Check the packaging for visible damage. If anything has been
damaged during transport, please inform the transport agency.
Unpack the unit carefully. This is an electronic device that must
be handled with care to avoid damage. Do not attempt to put
the unit into operation if components are damaged.
If any parts are missing, inform your customer service
representative or a Bosch Security Systems salesperson. The
shipping carton is the safest transport container for the unit.
Store it and the other packaging material for future use. If the
unit has to be sent back, use the original packaging.

2 Short information
This controller is able to control up to two Wiegand card
readers.
It is designed to fully process the access logic at assigned
access points. Access points consist of doors, gates, barriers,
turn stiles, revolving doors, mantraps, ID card readers, door
opening elements and sensors.
All the product versions use encrypted connections between the
access modular controller and the host system.
The controller stores all necessary information in a battery-
buffered memory and in a compact flash storage element. Even
when the unit is offline, it is able to perform:
– Independent status and authorization checks on access
points
– Take access decisions
– Activate and deactivate connected peripheral elements
– Detect and register all relevant events
The Access Modular Controller (AMC) is supported by the
Access Professional Edition (APE), BIS Access Engine (ACE) and
the Access Management System (AMS).

3 Introduction
3.1 Description
The controller is equipped with two independent interfaces for
Wiegand type readers. It is able to control one door with one
reader in each direction and up to two doors with a reader in
one direction only.
Figure3.1: Access Modular Controller
All necessary information for access verification is stored in a
battery buffered on-board memory and a Compact Flash (CF)
memory card. This guarantees autonomous access decisions and
complete access registrations even if the management host
system is offline. The built in compact flash card provides
adequate storage capability for cardholders and events.

The electronics of the controller are completely covered by a
plastic housing. The LCD (liquid crystal display) provides all
important status information.
Unsecured Area
The controller can communicate upstream to the host computer
using RS-485 multi-dropped. It has four analog input devices
and four relay outputs. With its analog input devices, the
controller verifies, for example, if a lock is closed or open. The
relay outputs can be used to activate lock mechanisms if access
is granted, or activate the burglar alarm system if an intrusion or
system alert is detected. If the four inputs and four outputs on
board are not enough to configure the system, up to three
additional extension boards can be connected. The extensions
offer 8 or 16 additional inputs and outputs.
The setup procedure for a controller is made very simple and
fast by the use of door templates. Once selected, all the inputs
and outputs are predefined. These settings can be changed to
choose every free contact of the controller or a connected
extension.

2 Lithium battery for buffering of static RAM and real time
clock (RTC). The battery life is estimated at 10 years,
nevertheless an error message is generated if the voltage
sinks below a preset minimum level.
NOTICE: In order to avoid an error message caused by an
earlier voltage drop we suggest to replace the battery
every 8 years. Spare part: VARTA CR 2032 PCB.
