2. Communication wiring
Connect the X300 to the Aero X1100 intelligent
controller using IO Module ports (2-wire RS-485).
Use 1-twisted pair, shielded cable, 120  impedance,
24 AWG, 4,000 ft. (1,219 m) maximum.
Note: Both IN and OUT terminals on the IO MODULE
are the same port and are internally connected.
IO MODULE IN or IO MODULE OUT
Setting the termination jumpers
Install RS-485 termination jumpers on the interface
boards at each end of the communication bus only.
Failure to do so will compromise the proper operation
of the communication channel.

1. Mounting the X300
ATTENTION
Observe precautions for handling
ELECTROSTATIC SENSITIVE DEVICES
◾ Always mount the controllers and interface panels
in a secure area.
◾ Mount using the supplied screws 0.138" × 1"
(3.5 mm × 25 mm).
◾ Alternatively mount on a DIN rail using compatible
DIN rail mounting brackets and screws.
See Recommended parts.
Note: The side terminal connectors must be
removed to fit the mounting brackets.

3. Input circuit wiring
Inputs are typically used for the following:
◾ To monitor door position.
◾ Request to exit.
◾ Alarm contacts.
Input IN 1 and IN 2 circuits can be configured as
unsupervised or supervised and can use normally open or
normally closed contacts.
For a supervised circuit, add two 1K  , 1% resistors as
close to the sensor as possible.
Custom end of line (EOL) resistances may be configured
via the host software.
Note: The input circuit wiring configurations shown are
supported but may not be typical.
Unsupervised circuit IN 1 or IN 2
Supervised circuit IN 1 or IN 2
1K,1%
1K,1%
4. Relay circuit wiring
Twelve relays are provided for controlling door lock
mechanisms or alarm signaling.
When controlling the delivery of power to the door
strike, the NO (Normally Open) and C (Common) poles
are typically used.
When momentarily removing power to unlock the door,
as with a mag lock, the NC (Normally Closed) and C
(Common) poles are typically used.
Check with local building codes for proper egress door
installation.
CAUTION
Door lock mechanisms can generate feedback to the

relay circuit. This can cause damage and premature
failure of the relay, effecting the operation of the X300.
Use a diode to protect the relay. Use a wire of sufficient
gauge to avoid voltage loss.
Diode selection:
◾ Diode current rating: 1x strike current.
◾ Diode breakdown voltage: 4x strike voltage.
◾ For 12 V DC or 24 V DC strike, diode 1N4002
(100V/1A) typical.

6. Input power, cabinet tamper, and UPS fault input wiring
The X300 requires 12-24 V DC power. Connect power
with minimum of 18 AWG wire.
Connect power ground to earth ground in only ONE
LOCATION within the system. Multiple earth ground
connections may cause ground loop problems and is
not advised.
Observe POLARITY on 12-24 V DC input.
Connect the AC FAIL and BATT FAIL inputs to the
corresponding contacts provided on the power supply.
Connect the TAMPER input to a tamper switch on the
enclosure.
TAMPER, AC FAIL, and BATT FAIL connections are
identical to inputs IN 1 to IN 2 and can be configured
as unsupervised or supervised. See step 3. Input
circuit wiring.
