AIR CR 0.18
Purpose and general information
AIR CR network access controller for controlling access to residential, industrial or office premises, equipped with
electromagnetic or electromechanical locks. The device allows you to automate the passage of vehicles by controlling the
barrier, gates and other actuators. The software allows you not only to control access, but also solves applied tasks for
controlling delays and accounting for working hours. Connection to a computer network is carried out via Wi-Fi 2.4Ghz. The
built-in reader supports 125Khz and 13.56Mhz RFID tags. Added support for Bluetooth (AIR KEYs) and Virtual Keys (VI KEY).
The Wiegand device is capable of working in two modes:
• Input - for connecting any external reader (Wiegand 4,8,26,34 data format)
• Output - for connecting a third-party ACS to the access controller
When connecting via Wiegand interface, the distance between the devices should be up to 100 m.
AIR CR RS485 interface with OSDP protocol support. In this case, the distance between devices can reach 1000 meters.
In one system, it is recommended to connect to the same interface, which will help to avoid differences in reading the card
code and reading confusion in the system. AIR CR programming can be carried out from the Mobile Access Control System
"MACS Lite" or the cloud service "UNIMACS". Initial settings are made through the built-in AIR CR site. Always install the latest
firmware with every new installation. The controller outputs are implemented according to the open collector scheme (when
the output is turned on, the transistor closes the output to ground).
AIR CR provides work in several modes that can cover a wide range of tasks of the installer.
Operating modes:
1. Standalone - work without connecting to any networks. The user interacts with the controller using the "MACS
Lite" software being in close proximity to the controller. Connection of the User's phone to the AIR CR access point
is required.
2. Network - work in a local network. To work with the controllers, the phone with the "MACS lite" application must
be registered in the same network.
3. Cloudy - work in a local network with network connection support. This mode allows you to use all the features of
AIR CR with minimal effort. The main advantages of this mode:
• Automatic connection
• Remote administration and monitoring
• Ability to work with virtual keys
• Ability to work with Bluetooth keys
If an AIR CR galvanic circuit is required from a device (lock, barrier), control of high-voltage devices or devices with a
significant current consumption (exceeding the rated current for the output), it is recommended to connect these devices via
a relay (see 4). It also improves the reliability of the system. When using electromagnetic or electromechanical locks, it is
recommended to use a protective diode (see Figure 6).

Description of connection methods
A wired interface is used to connect the AIR CR to any peripheral or executive equipment.

Hard reset
To reset the device to factory settings, you must:
1. Remove power from the device.
2. Connect the three signal wires together D1 (Gray) + D0 (Brown) + GND (Black).
3. Apply power.
4. The transition to the reset mode is carried out with the change of indication to a full yellow ring
5. The process of resetting the settings and subsequent initialization of the file system can take up to 4 minutes.
After the reset is completed, the device will automatically switch to standby mode, which it will inform about by
changing the display mode and beeping.
6. Remove power.
7. Return the D1 (Gray), D0 (Brown) and GND (Black) wires to their original condition.

System installation recommendations
When drawing up the wiring diagram of the facility, the controllers should be placed as close as possible to the points
of the Wi-Fi signal in order to minimize delays in working with a mobile application or cloud service. Try to avoid mounting
the device on metal surfaces. If it is impossible to avoid, then use the reinforced mounting plastic from the device kit. After
installation, check the Wi-Fi signal strength. The signal strength can be seen on the info page of the embedded site (see the
section “Embedded AIR CR website”). The minimum allowable signal level is -75dB. If your signal strength is lower (the value
is higher), then this can have a strong impact on the interactivity of the device with a mobile application or cloud service. We
recommend moving the access point closer to the device or using a stronger antenna on the access point.
The length of the communication line via the Wiegand interface should be no more than 100 m. This interface has
very weak protection against interference - we do not recommend laying it parallel to power cables and next to other sources
of interference (daylight lamps, etc.). The minimum distance to power cables is at least 0.5m. If your communication line
exceeds 5 m, we recommend using a UTP 5E cable.
Figure 7. Recommended Wiegand connection diagram
The length of the RS-485 communication line is not critical to the distance - this standard was specially developed for
communication with remote objects and has good noise immunity. It is necessary to lay the RS-485 communication line at
the maximum distance from power cables and daylight lamps. As a RS-485 communication line, it is necessary to use a twisted
pair cable - UTP 5E or FTP 5 (If possible, ground the shield at one end). For reliable operation of the system, it is recommended
to separate the power supply for controllers and actuators. The controller supply line wires should be kept as short as possible
in order to avoid significant voltage drops across them. After laying the wires, make sure that the supply voltage of the
controller with the locks turned on is not lower than 12 V.
Figure 8. Using a protective diode
A protective diode is used to protect the controller from reverse currents when an electromagnetic or
electromechanical lock is triggered. The protective diode is connected in parallel with the contacts of the lock (the diode is

connected in reverse polarity). The diode must be installed directly on the contacts of the lock. Suitable diodes 1N5400,
1N5408, 1N5821, HER301 and similar. Varistors can be used instead of diodes, for which polarity is not required. Varistors
VCR-07D101K S07K60, TVR07101, GNR-07D101K or similar are suitable.
