MaximalD Series Overview:
Maximal Access Power/Controllers distribute and switch power to access control systems and accessories. They
convert a 115VAC 60Hz input into sixteen (16) independently controlled 12VDC or 24VDC Class 2 Rated PTC
protected power-limited outputs. The outputs are activated by an open collector sink or normally open (NO) dry
trigger input from an Access Control System, Keypad, Push Button, REX PIR, etc. Units will route power to a
variety of access control hardware devices including: Mag Locks, Electric Strikes, Magnetic Door Holders, etc.
The FACP Interface enables Emergency Egress, Alarm Monitoring, or may be used to trigger other auxiliary
devices. The fire alarm disconnect feature is individually selectable for any or all of the sixteen (16) outputs. All
interconnecting equipment must be UL Listed.

12. Installation of tamper switch (Not Included) (Figs. 3b-4a, pgs. 8-9):
Mount UL Listed tamper switch (Altronix Model TS112 or equivalent) at the top of the enclosure. Slide the
tamper switch bracket onto the edge of the enclosure approximately 2” from the right side (Figs. 3b and 4a,
pgs. 8-9). Connect tamper switch wiring to the Access Control Panel input or the appropriate UL Listed
reporting device. To activate alarm signal open the door of the enclosure.
Maintenance:
Unit should be tested at least once a year for the proper operation as follows:
FACP Supervision: To ensure proper connection and operation of the Fire Alarm disconnect
hookup. Please follow the appropriate procedure below:
Normally Open Input: Placing a short between terminals marked [T] and [+ INP] will trigger the
Fire Alarm Disconnect. Remove the short to reset.
Normally Closed Input: Remove the wire from terminal marked [INP –] will trigger the Fire Alarm
Disconnect. Replace the wire to terminal marked [INP –] to reset.
FACP Signal Circuit Input: It is necessary to trigger the Fire Alarm System.
In all of the above scenarios the green TRG LED of the ACM8CBs will
illuminate. All outputs selected for Fire Alarm Disconnect will activate
releasing locking devices.
Note: All outputs [OUT 1 - OUT 8] must be in a normal (de-energized)
condition prior to testing. When the unit is configured for Normally Open
(Fig. 10, pg. 13) or Normally Closed (Fig. 12, pg. 14) latching operation it
is necessary to reset the Fire Alarm Disconnect by activating the
Normally Closed reset switch.
Output Voltage Test: Under normal load conditions the DC output voltage should be checked
for proper voltage level
(Power Supply Board Stand-by Battery Specifications, pg. 7).
Battery Test: Under normal load conditions check that the battery is fully charged, check
specified voltage at the battery terminals and at the board terminals marked
[+ BAT –] to ensure that there is no break in the battery connection wires.

NEC Power-Limited Wiring Requirements for Maximal7D:
Power-limited and non power-limited circuit wiring must remain separated in the cabinet. All power-limited
circuit wiring must remain at least 0.25” away from any non power-limited circuit wiring. Furthermore, all
power-limited circuit wiring and non power-limited circuit wiring must enter and exit the cabinet through differ-
ent conduits. One such example of this is shown below. Your specific application may require different conduit
knockouts to be used. Any conduit knockouts may be used. For power-limited applications use of conduit is
optional. All field wiring connections must be made employing suitable gauge CM or FPL jacketed wire (or
equivalent substitute).
Note: Refer to wire handling drawing below for the proper way to install the CM or FPL jacketed wire (Fig. 7a).
