Introduction
The Protege WX DIN Rail Single Door Controller is the central processing unit of the Protege WX System. It
communicates with all system modules, stores all configuration and transaction information, processes all system
communication, and reports alarms and system activity to a monitoring station or remote computer.
Flexible module network architecture allows large numbers of modules to be connected to the RS-485 module
network. Up to 250 modules can be connected to the Protege system in any combination to the network, over a
distance of up to 900M (3000ft). Further span can be achieved with the use of a network repeater module.
The current features of the controller include:
⦁Internal industry-standard 10/100 ethernet
⦁32 Bit advanced RISC processor with 2Gb total memory
⦁Encrypted module network using RS-485 communication
⦁NIST Certified AES 128, 192 and 256 Bit encryption
⦁Factory loaded HTTPScertificate
⦁OSDPconfigurable RS-485
⦁2 high security monitored inputs
⦁Industry standard DIN rail mounting
Single Door Controller Editions
There are two editions of the PRT-WX-DIN-1D Controller:
⦁The PRT-WX-DIN-1D can be supplied power from a 12V DC power supply connected to the N+ and N-
terminals.
⦁The PRT-WX-DIN-1D-POE can be supplied power from a 12V DC power supply connected to the N+ and N-
terminals OR from a power over ethernet (PoE) router via the onboard ethernet terminal.
The features specific to the PoE interface described in this manual are only relevant if using the appropriate
