PURPOSE AND GENERAL INFORMATION
The ICON-Lite network access controller is designed to control 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 makes it possible not only to control access but also to solve applied
tasks for controlling delays and recording working hours. Connection to a computer network is
carried out via Wi-Fi 2.4Ghz. The device provides work with two Wiegand readers 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 the Wiegand interface, the distance between the devices should be
up to 100 m /328 ft.
The RS485 interface with support for the OSDP protocol allows the device to be used with
modern readers and controllers that support this protocol. In this case, the distance between the
devices should not exceed 1000 m / 3280 ft.
Two power outputs are used to control locks or other actuators:
•Output 1 - Relay output 24V 5A (120W) with "Dry contact" / "Wet contact" switching (see Figure
3). In the "Dry contact" mode, the output works like a normal relay. It is necessary to supply
voltage to the contact "C" of the relay. In the "Wet contact" mode, the supply voltage is
automatically applied to the "C" contact of the relay.
•Output 2 - Open collector output - when the output is turned on, the transistor closes the
output to the ground. Output load capacity 12V 3A (36W). If it is necessary to switch devices
that exceed the output load capacity, use an additional relay (see Figure 12)
The following inputs are used to control the status of exit buttons and door opening sensors:
•REX 1 - Input for Door 1 Exit button.
•DOOR 1 - Input for Door 1 status sensor.
•IN1 –Button input Door exit 2* / Alarm input
•IN2- Input for door status sensor 2* / Universal input
The state of the inputs when the controller is operating at two points of passage.
All inputs can work both for closing and opening, depending on the settings in the access control
system
The ICON-Lite controller is designed to work as part of the UNIMACS cloud access control
system. There is a specialized version of the controller for integrators and developers; it has a
limited set of commands (SimpleAPI) and can be very easily integrated into any ACS.

Relay work mode
To change the operating mode of the relay, need to dismantle and de-energize the device.
Remove the top cover by unscrewing the four fixing screws from the bottom of the case. Select
the desired mode using the switch on the board according to Fig. 1. Power up the device. Make
sure D2 is on. Close the cover of the device.
DRY MODE
The «DRY MODE»is the most common mode which can be used in kinds:
•If your actuator needs a different power supply. To use external power, select DRY and use
NO or NC and C, and wire to the external supply. That gives a possibility to control the
actuators (lock and etc.), which use different power sources.

•If your actuator needs to shortcut two contacts to be activated
WET MODE
The «WET MODE»is a special mode that provides
power directly to the actuators (Lock and etc.). To
power actuators (Lock and etc.) without an external
supply, select «WET MODE» and connect locking
hardware to NO and GND (for fail-secure locks) or
NC and GND (for fail-safe locks). In this work mode,
relay out works in the same algorithm as open
collector out.
If you need more examples about relay modes, please study the chapter «Typical wiring
diagrams.»

INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS
Common recommendations
When drawing up a wiring diagram of an object and using Wi-Fi, the controllers should be
located 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. After installation, check the Wi-Fi signal strength. The
signal strength can be seen on the info page of the web-based interface (see the section "WEB-
BASED INTERFACE"). 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 or device.
In one system, it is recommended to use the connection of readers on the same interface,
which will help to avoid differences in reading the card code and subsequent confusion in the
system. ICON-Lite programming can be carried out from the cloud service "UNIMACS." Initial
settings are made through the built-in ICON-Lite website. Always install the latest firmware for
every new installation.
If you need galvanic isolation from the controlled device (lock, gate, etc.) or you need
control of high-voltage devices or devices with significant current consumption (exceeding the
rated current for the output), it is recommended to connect these devices via a relay (see Figure
7). It also improves the reliability of the system. When using electromagnetic or electromechanical
locks, we strongly recommend using a protective diode (see Figure 6).
Wiegand connection
The length of the communication line via the Wiegand interface should be no more than
100 m (328 ft). This interface has very weak protection against interference - we do not
recommend laying it parallel to power cables or next to other sources of interference (daylight
lamps, etc.). The minimum distance to power cables is at least 0.5m (1.64 ft). If your communication
line exceeds 5 m (16.4 ft), we recommend using a UTP 5E cable.

With a distance of more than 5m (16,4 ft)

RS485 connection
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 had good noise immunity.
It is necessary to lay the RS-485 communication line at the maximum distance from power cables
and daylight lamps. As an 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).
Figure 4. Example of connection via the 485 interface
Figure 5. Connecting a few devices via 485 interfaces
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.

Protective diode
Figure 6. 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.
Instead of diodes, varistors can be used, for which
there is no need to observe polarity. Varistors VCR-
07D101K S07K60, TVR07101, GNR-07D101K, or similar
are suitable.

WEB-BASED INTERFACE
The initial configuration of ICON-Lite is done through the web-based interface. To connect
to the interface, the User must connect to the device's Wi-Fi access point, which has the "ICON"
prefix and does not have a password. After connecting to the device, the User must enter the
factory IP address of the controller - 192.168.4.1 in the browser line. For first-time entry, leave the
"Login" and "Password" fields empty –just press «Submit»We strongly recommend you set your
own Login and Password for web-interface access.
System Information
Main network settings
Depending on the controller model, the following types of network connection are available
to the User: Controller model ICON-Lite - Wi-Fi only.
Connecting to a Wi-Fi network.
To connect to a wireless network, you must enter
"SSID name" / The name of your Wi-Fi network (2).
Enter "SSID password" / access password (3) to
your Wi-Fi network. Select "Connection type" /
Type of addressing (4). In the case of working
through a cloud service, we recommend setting it
to DHCP. If you need to manually assign an
address, contact your system administrator for

Local Wi-Fi Access point settings
The local access point can operate in three modes. The choice of the mode is made by
the selector (1)
- Always-ON
The device's local hotspot is always on and is
displayed when other devices are scanning the
network.
- Always-ON + Hidden
The device's local hotspot is always enabled but
does not show up when scanning the network
with other devices. Connection is possible if the
SSID is known.
- Timed ON (default)
The local point of the device is activated for the time specified in the Timer field (2). The
countdown starts from the power supply of the device; after the timer expires, the Wi-Fi point
will be turned off.
By default, the local hotspot is not password protected. We strongly recommend that you set
your own SSID name (3) and SSID password (4) during the initial setup.
Cloud Connection settings
The ICON-Lite controller is designed to work as part of the UNIMACS ACS but can also be
used with any third-party service based on the MQTT service. To integrate with a third-party
service, the controller must have a specialized
"Simple API" firmware containing a simplified set
of commands for interaction.
The choice of a cloud service for
connection occurs through the selector "Server"
(1). The User can set the following values:
"Disable" / No connection to the cloud
service - The device works without a cloud
connection. Communication with the device is
possible strictly within the local network or
through port forwarding
"UNIMACS" - Connection to the UNIMACS
cloud service. The user must enter "Account UID"
/ UNIMACS account universal identifier (2) and
"Note" / Comment (3) - the name of the
checkpoint. Example "Main entrance." More
detailed information on working
with the UNIMACS cloud service can be obtained
from the «UNIMACS quick start guide.»
"Custom" - Connection to the User's MQTT server. The User will have to fill in the required
fields on all tabs according to the connection settings of his server.
