PRT-RDE2-PCB Protege Ethernet 2 Reader Expander Installation Manual | June 2017 5
1 Introduction
The ICT Protege System is a powerful integrated alarm and access control management system designed to
provide integration with building automation, apartment complex control and HVAC in one flexible package.
Communication is over a proprietary high speed protocol across an encrypted local area network and AES
Encrypted Proprietary RS-485 module network. Using modular-based hardware design, system installers have
the flexibility to accommodate any installation from small to large, residential or commercial.
The PRT-RDE2-PCB Protege Ethernet Reader Expander extends the number of card reader inputs on the
system by 2, number of zone inputs by 8 (4 zones used for door monitoring and control and up to eight can be
used for extended functionality) and the number of PGM outputs by 8 (includes 2 monitored lock control
outputs).
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 up to
a distance of 900M (3000ft). Communication beyond this distance requires the use of a RS-485 Network
Extender or the Slave Communications Port on a PRT-RDI2-PCB Protege Intelligent Reader Expander.
The current features of the Protege Ethernet 2 Reader Expander include:
 4 Wiegand Reader Mode for 2 Entry/Exit Doors Per Reader Expander
 Secure Encrypted RS-485 Module Communications
 8 Zone Inputs
 2 Monitored Lock Control PGM Outputs
 6 Open Collector PGM Outputs (Reader Control Outputs)
 1.5A Switching Power Supply
 Intelligent Battery Charge and Monitoring
 Smart Reader Missing/Tamper Monitoring
 Online and Remote upgradeable firmware

 Reader Expander Printed Circuit Board
 6 X Plastic Mounting Standoffs
 20 X 1K Ohm Resistors
 2 X 1N4007 Lock Reverse EMF Protection Diodes
 Red/Black Backup Battery Wires

2.2 Location and Mounting
The Reader Expander is available as a PCB Only (Printed Circuit Board) or complete unit supplied with a metal
cabinet. We recommend that the cabinet is used wherever possible as this provides the best mounting and
installation solution as well as the required cable entry and termination space.
When installing the Reader Expander ensure that there is adequate clearance around all sides of the enclosure
and air flow to the vents of the enclosure are not restricted.
We recommend the Reader Expander is installed in a location that will facilitate easy access for wiring. We also
recommend that the Reader Expander is installed in electrical rooms, communication equipment rooms, closets
or in an accessible area of the ceiling.
1. Insert the plastic stand-offs in to the locations to mount the PCB board.
2. Calculate the location and position of the enclosure and mark the holes for the keyhole points in the top left
and right locations. This will allow you to screw in the screws and then hang the box on them adjusting the
location to suit.
3. Ensure a solid fixing point and screw in the two screws. Before tightening the top screws insert the tamper
bracket in the slot provided on the right side of the enclosure.
4. Fix the enclosure securely using the remaining mounting holes on the bottom left, right and centre of the
enclosure.
5. Insert the PCB in to the enclosure and mount using the plastic standoffs inserted during step one.
i
Install the enclosure when the circuit board is NOT installed on the plastic stand-offs. This will reduce
the risk of damage caused by debris during the installation process.

2.3 Cabinet Tamper Switch
The enclosure tamper input signals to the monitoring station or remote computer that the Reader Expander
enclosure has been opened. The tamper input switch shall be mounted into the steel bracket provided and
connected to the tamper connection terminals as shown in the diagram below. The tamper input opens and
closes trouble zone RDxxx:01 on the Reader Expander.

2.4 Earth Ground Connection
The Reader Expander has a connection for earth ground. For best results a cold water pipe should be used with
a pipe wiring clamp. If a cold water pipe is not available, connect to a suitable ground connection in the
installation. A minimum 14AWG solid copper wire shall be used from the Reader Expander's earth connection
point to the clamp on the cold water pipe. If other earth clamps are present at the same connection point
connect the clamp below the existing units.

2.5 AC Power
The Protege PGM Expander should be supplied by a dedicated electrical power source rated for a minimum
10Amp Load and have a dedicated circuit breaker. Do not use a switch controlled breaker or a switched
electrical point to supply electrical power. Connect the primary of a 16.5VAC, 50/60Hz, 40VA Transformer to
the electrical circuit and run the secondary to the AC input on the controller terminals.

Specific regional regulations may allow the transformer to be mounted inside the enclosure. In this case wire the
electrical circuit to the electrical termination point inside the enclosure and the secondary wires of the
transformer to the AC Input on the controller.
i
Termination of wiring to the PGM Expander while power is applied or the battery is connected may
cause serious damage to the PGM Expander and will VOID ALL WARRANTIES OR GUARANTEES.
Power the PGM Expander ONLY after all wiring, configuration and jumper settings are completed and
verified.

2.6 Backup Battery
It is recommended that a minimum of a 4Ah battery is used as the main backup battery. From the accessory
bag provided, connect the RED and BLACK battery termination wires to the B+ and B- terminals. Connect the
spade terminals to the battery as shown below. Connection of the battery in reverse will not damage the Reader
Expander but will cause the battery fuse (5A Fast Blow) to blow and require replacement.

The battery test procedure uses a special algorithm to prevent deep discharge and increase battery endurance.
A dynamic battery test is performed every ten minutes when AC power is present and a battery condition alarm
will be generated if the battery is either disconnected or shows poor capacity. Battery fault conditions will
activate the battery trouble zone associated with the address assigned to the Reader Expander.
If AC is not present the Protege Reader Expander will monitor the battery for a low voltage level and will activate
the battery trouble zone. The next dynamic battery test will occur 30 minutes after AC power has been restored.
This delay allows the battery to achieve optimal charging during the first 30 minutes when power is initially
restored to the unit. Once the first test is completed the dynamic battery testing will return to 10 minute
intervals.
When power is first applied to the Protege Reader Expander a dynamic battery test will be performed after 30
seconds, this allows the status and condition of the battery to be detected. On completion of this first test the
normal testing period of 10 minutes will be resumed.

2.7 Status Indicator
The status output will activate according to the status indicator on the Protege Reader Expander and can be
used to provide signalling or indication of the Reader Expander status outside the enclosure. The following
diagram shows the connection of an LED indicator to the status output.

2.8 Ethernet 10/100 Network Connection
The communication between the PRT-RDE2 and the Protege System Controller can be via a 10/100 Ethernet
network operating the encrypted UDP protocol suite. The IP address of the controller can be configured using
the LCD Keypad Terminal or web interface. The default IP address for the PRT-RDE2 is set to a static IP
address of 192.168.1.3 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, and the default controller IP address the
PRT-RDE2 will try to communicate on is 192.168.1.2.
i
Installing the Protege Reader Expander on an active network requires knowledge of the configuration
and structure for the network. Always consult the network or system administrator and ask them to
provide you with a fixed IP address that can be assigned to the Protege Reader Expander.
