indicator associated with the reader will activate for 100ms.
If the “micro check”, “low bat”, “reader 1” and “reader 2” LEDs are ashing in a circular manner,
the controller has no rmware and must be updated. The update can be done from the rmware update
application which can be downloaded from our web site. For more information refer to the Centaur
Operator’s Manual or visit our web site at www.postech.ca.

Figure 2: Controller’s Jumper Locations
8 INSTALLATION MANUAL
JUMPER SETTINGS
As shown in Figure 2 there are nine jumpers used to set some of the controller’s operating modes.
BATT ON/OFF
When the jumper is on, the controller enables the RAM and RTC battery backup (default = off). Once the
controller is installed, the jumper must be on for correct operation. If you are required to replace the 3V
backup battery, we recommend that you set the jumper to off until the the battery is replaced. Note however,
if a complete power loss occurs, the time and date as well as all controller programming will be lost.
EOL (CONTROLLER NETWORK)
Places the EOL termination of the main controller network in circuit (default = off). Jumper should only
be on when the controller is the last controller in the network as demonstrated in Figure 3.
Figure 3: Sample EOL Jumper Settings
12V/24V (LOCK #1)
Selects the output voltage of the “LK1+” terminal when the Lock#1 relay is active (default = 12V). When
the jumper is on pins 1 & 2 the output will be 12V. If the jumper is on pins 2 & 3 the output will be 24V.

DIP SWITCH SETTINGS
As shown in “Figure 2” on page 8, a set of eight dip switches can found on the lower left hand side of the controller.
These dip switches are used to set certain modes in the controller as described below. Changes to the dip switch
settings will only be applied when the controller is powered up or if you press the “Reset Switch” located on the
lower left hand side of the controller.
DEF/RUN DIP SWITCH
Set the dip switch to the off (Run) position for normal operation. If you wish to reset the controller to its
default settings, set the dip switch to the on (Def) position, then power up the controller or press the
“Reset Switch” on the lower left hand side of the controller. Default setting is off (Run).
9.6K/19.2K DIP SWITCH
Select the appropriate communications baud rate between the access control server and the network of
controllers. Set the dip switch to the on position for 9.6K or set the dip switch to the off position for 19.2K.
Default setting is off (19.2K). Verify that the CA-A360 Converter has also been set accordingly.
CONTROLLER ADDRESS ASSIGNMENT
Each site can manage up to 256 controllers. The 256 controllers are divided into four controller loops of up
to 64 controllers each. Using “Table 1” on page 10, set the dip switches to the desired controller address.

12V/24V (LOCK #2)
Selects the output voltage of the “LK2+” terminal when the Lock#2 relay is active (default = 12V). When the
jumper is on pins 1 & 2 the output will be 12V. If the jumper is on pins 2 & 3 the output will be 24V.
HIGH/LOW (NETWORK IMPEDANCE)
Select the impedance of the RS-485 network (default = high). Set both jumpers to high when running
normally. When running the Centaur Lite edition and connecting directly to the 9-pin serial port, you must
set both jumpers to low.
EOL (E-BUS NETWORK)
Places the EOL termination of the controller’s E-bus network in circuit (default = on). If the controller is at
the end of the E-Bus network, the jumper should be on. If the controller is in the middle of the E-Bus
network, the jumper must be off. Please refer to Figure 4.
HIGH/LOW (E-BUS IMPEDANCE)
Select the impedance of the E-bus for the RS-485 (default: low). Set to low when running normally. Set to
high when running special E-Bus devices.
