IPBridge Installation Guide

1: INTRODUCTION
This document is the complete guide for mounting and
wiring the ISONAS IP-Bridge product models IP-
Bridge-2 and IP-Bridge-3.
The IP-Bridge has some special capabilities that support
multiple types of input power and daisy chaining multiple
IP-Bridge’s together.
For this reason, it is essential that you read through this
entire guide before attempting an installation.
Note: Within the Pure Access Software package, these
models use the abbreviated model labels IPBR-2 & IPBR-3.
1.1: BEFORE YOU BEGIN
The following core tasks are involved when installing an ISONAS IP-
Bridge: 1.Mount the IP-Bridge in the appropriate indoor location.
2. Supply power to the IP-Bridge unit. This may be accomplished with
power being provided on the Ethernet data cable (Power over Ethernet
[PoE]) or through an external DC power source (12VDC or 24VDC)
3. Wire the IP-Bridge to the door’s locks and other components required
for physical access control.
4. Connect the unit to the data network for communication with the host
workstation.
This guide discusses each process separately. Understanding all of these
processes makes a project much simpler and guarantees success.

1.2: GENERAL REQUIREMENTS:
 If PoE is not being used, then use only UL-listed, access control, power-
limited power supplies with an ‘AC on’ indicator light clearly visible on the
enclosure. ISONAS recommends that Power supplies should provide at least
four hours of standby power.
 Never connect power supplies to a switch-controlled receptacle.
 Install the ISONAS system in accordance with the National Electrical Code
NFPA 70. (Local authority has jurisdiction.)
 Use only wire or UL-listed cabling recognized as suitable for ISONAS power
supply and data communications, in accordance with the National Electrical
Code.
 Where possible, separate ISONAS equipment and cabling from sources of
electromagnetic interference (EMI). Where this is not possible, take other steps
to reduce the effect of EMI on cabling or equipment.
 Protect input and output terminals adequately from transient signals. Also,
connect these terminals to power-limited circuitry.

1.4: INSTALLER TOOLKIT COMPONENTS
Before an installer goes to a customer site, they need to put together their supplies
and tool-kit. The ISONAS solution is simpler to install than other Access Control
Systems, but materials are still needed. And some of those materials may be
different than what you are use to carrying. The list below identifies some important
items that you should make sure to bring with you, to the customer’s site.
A prepared installer will have:
Installer completed the on-line reseller training program.
An installer’s Tool Kit should include the following:
1. The copy of the IP-Bridge Installation and Wiring Guide
2. A Volt-Ohm Meter
3. A PoE Injector
4. A Cross-over Cat5/Cat6 cable
5. A straight-thru Cat5/Cat6 patch cable.
6. Basic Ethernet network cable tester (Tests for: Opens, Shorts,
Split Pairs, Mis-wires & Reversals)
7. A spare IP-Bridge
8. An extra Daisy-Chain power cord
9. The ISONAS As-Built forms, which is used to record the details
of the door's installation.
The customer’s site should have Internet access. This enables the use of on-line
meeting tools, such as GoToMeeting, during any remote support sessions.

2: PHYSICAL INSTALLATION
When selecting the location where you are going to mount the ISONAS IP-Bridge,
a few guidelines should be observed.
1) The IP-Bridge should be protected from extreme heat and sunlight. It is
rated for indoor use, between -40 to 80 degrees C.
2) The IP-Bridge is designed to be mounted on a standard 35 mm DIN Rail.
3) Mounting the IP-Bridge inside of a control cabinet or a NEMA housing
is recommended.
4) When planning a project’s DIN rail layout, determine if the door device’s
electrical return connections will be terminated by the optional modular DIN
terminal blocks. If so, adjust the IP-Bridge’s location on the DIN rail to
allow space for the modular terminal blocks.
5) The IP-Bridge should be located within a 500 foot cable length of the devices
being controlled.
2.1: MOUNTING THE IP-BRIDGE
The major steps involved with the physical mounting of the IP-Bridge include:
1) Planning the location of the DIN rail(s)
a. Typically inside a control cabinet, or NEMA housing.
2) Attaching the DIN rails to housing’s mounting surface
3) Snapping the IP-Bridge to its DIN rail
4) Attaching the optional terminal block(s)
5) Repeat the process, for any additional IP-Bridges

2.2: VISUAL STATUS INDICATORS
The IP-Bridge has multiple LED status indicators to assist in monitoring and
troubleshooting the status of the unit. LED’s are labeled in Figure 01. LED’s A
and B are used to indicate the status of the IP-Bridge itself. The C & D LED
pairs indicate the status of individual doors.

2.3: IP-BRIDGE RESET BUTTON
The PowerNet IP-Bridge has a recessed reset-button located in the position shown on
Figure 02. It can be used for two different types of resets.
It is helpful to monitoring the amber LAN status LED allows you to determine the
status of the reset operation.
 Reset CPU: Press, hold (approx. 2 seconds) and release the Reset button.
Once the Reset Button is released, all the door status LED’s will turn amber, and
in 15 seconds return to the normal display. If the door’s LEDs do not turn
amber, then the reset did not occur.
 Reset Configuration: Press and hold the Reset button (approx. 10 seconds),
until all door status LED’s turn Amber. After the LED’s turn Amber, release the
Reset button. Selected IP-Bridge configurations are reset to factory defaults.
Setting that are changed include:
 IP Address
(Default value:
192.168.1.119)
 IP Port
(Default value:
10001)
Subnet Mask
