Note: This document refers to this AC-MAX installation example.
Introduction
This document indicates step by step how to start up a two/four door AC-MAX installation
using both Wiegand readers and ref. 5225 FPAC-MAX RS485 fingerprint readers.
For this we will use for the guide a kit of 2 doors and 3 readers. In door 1 we will use 2 readers
one entrance for another one exit, and in door 2 an entrance reader.
Using the following elements.
•Access controller AC-MAX-CU-KIT-2 (kit ref. 5223)
•2 x RS485 FINGERPRINT readers FPAC-MAX (Ref. 5225) (As input reader and output
reader for Door 1).
•1 x WIEGAND reader (Resistant keyboard 5293) (As door 2 input reader)
