SETTINGS FOR RS-485
Each card must have a unique RS-485 address.
Use DIP switches 1-6 to set the RS-485 network address. See
LT-980 for details.
Set DIP switch 8 o to get an IP address from the DCHP
server.
Set DIP switch 8 on to get an IP address from the TX3
Congurator software.

1. Make sure that the power is o (the On/O Switches
on the card access controllers are o).
2. Connect the MD-990 load power supply wires to the 16
VAC IN terminals on the rst card access controller.
3. Connect the other card access controllers to the rst
one in parallel (daisy chain).
4. Connect the building power supply wires to the MD-
990 line terminal screws as shown in Figure 5.
5. Connect the other end of the building power supply
wires the line voltage terminals.
The power supply enclosure is shown in Figure 4 (for clarity
the power supply is not shown).
1. Find a suitable location for the power supply enclosure,
such as over a wall stud.
2. Using the power supply enclosure as a template,
mark the back mounting hole locations as indicated
in Figure 4. Ensure that at least one side is over a wall
stud.
3. Remove the power supply enclosure and place two
screws halfway into the top marked hole locations and
wall stud.
4. Place the power supply enclosure onto the two screws.
5. Screw two screws into the bottom holes.
6. Tighten all four screws into place.
The enclosure can also be mounted directly onto the drywall
using anchors.
