Warnings and Cautions
WARNINGWARNING
WARNINGWARNING
WARNING
Before installation, TURN OFF the external circuit breaker which supplies power to the
system.
Before connecting the device to the power supply, verify that the output voltage is within
specifications of the power supply.
Do not apply power to the system until after the installation has been completed.
Personal injury or death could occur, and the equipment could be damaged beyond
repair, if this precaution is not observed!
WARNING
Fire Safety and Liability Notice
Never connect card readers to any critical entry, exit door, barrier, elevator or gate without
providing an alternative exit in accordance with all fire and life safety codes pertinent to
the installation.These fire and safety codes vary from city to city and you must get
approval from local fire officials whenever using an electronic product to control a door or
other barrier. Use of egress buttons, for example, may be illegal in some cities.In most
applications, single action exit without prior knowledge of what to do is a life safety
requirement.Always make certain that any required approvals are obtained in writing.DO
NOT ACCEPTVERBAL APPROVALS, ASTHEY ARE NOTVALID.
NexWatchneverrecommends using the PW-3000 or PW-5000orrelated products foruse
as a primary warning or monitoring system. Primary warningormonitoringsystems should
always meet local fire and safety code requirements.The installer must also test the
system on a regular basis by instructing the end user in appropriate daily testing proce-
dures.Failure to test a system regularly could make installer liable for damages to the end
user if a problem occurs.
WARNING
EARTH groundall enclosures, for proper installation.
WARNING
Use suppressors on all door strikes.Use S-4 suppressors for installation.NexWatch
recommends only DC strikes.

Description
The Input Board provides connections for 16 supervised inputs and 2 relay outputs. This
board can be rack mounted, in which case, only one edge is accessible for wiring.
Mounting the board flat increases the amount of available I/O slightly but also significantly
decreases the number of boards that can be mounted in one enclosure.
Starting at the bottom of the rack-mount side of the board
•The first connector provides power to the board.
•The next connector provides communication with the Controller (PW5KxIC).
•Continuing up this edge, the next 8 connectors provide supervised input connections.
•The last connector on the rack-mount edge provides terminals for 1 relay output.
When the board is mounted flat, one additional relay output and two dedicated alarm
inputs for cabinet tamper and power fault detection are provided on the opposite edge of
the board.
Both form-C relay outputs are designed to handle dry-circuit signals. All of the inputs are
capable of four-state supervision by using End-Of-Line (EOL) resistor termination except
the two dedicated inputs. Communication to the control panel is accomplished via an
RS-485 interface.This board requires 12VDC input power.
When communication to the Controller is lost, this board will maintain all previous output
settings at the time communication was lost.

Power
The Input Board accepts 12VDC with an operating range of 10 to 16VDC and consumes
250 mA of current. Locate power source as close to this board as possible. Connect
power with minimumof 18AWG wires.
NOTE: POLARITY for 12VDC power is important. Make sure the +12VDC is
connected to the terminal labeled +12V and the return is connected to the
terminal labeled GND.
Communications
The Input Board communicates to the Controller through an RS-485 interface.The inter-
face allows for multi-drop communication of up to 4,000 feet (1,200 m) total per port.Use
two-twistedpair(minimum24 AWG) with shield for communication (Belden 9842or
equiv.). The default speed of this port is 38.4Kbps but it can be downgraded to 19.2Kbps
or 9.6Kbps if the line conditions or receiving equipment require it (see jumper and DIP
switchsettings).
ForWiring to an RS-485 port:
1.TR+ is the plus side of the transmit and receive differential signal
2.TR– is the negative side of the transmit and receive differential signal.
3.GND is the signal ground.The wiring for this signal is required and NOT optional. This
signal must NOT be connected to chassis GND.
4. Use 24 AWG low capacitance, two-twisted-pair, shielded cable (Belden 9842 or equiv.).

Note: For N-485 Communication Connections, twist the blue pair together and use as the
common;use the orange pair as your data pair, observing polarity. Connect the external
drainshield to the appropriateearthgroundononeend.
5.When daisy-chaining RS-485 ports together connect theTR+ wires from the upstream
and downstream boards to theTR+ terminal and likewise, connect theTR– wires from
the upstream and downstream boards to theTR- terminal.
By factory default J1 is set open. If this board is the last board on the RS-485 bus, install
jumper J1 across both pins (closed). Closing J1 provides the bus termination required.
Alarm Contact Wiring
Inputs 1 through 16 may be configured to use normally open or normally closed contacts
and non-supervised or supervised (with standard ±1% tolerance 1K ohm). All 16 inputs
can be configured to monitor general-purpose alarm sensors or can be used as control
inputs.

Additional inputsTMP and PFL are typically used for monitoring cabinet tamper and power
failure respectively.These two inputs are not supervised and are not accessible when the
board is rack mounted.These inputs are used when this board is mounted remotely
mounted and cannot take advantage of the tamper and power fail detect inputs on the
controller board.If these inputs are not used, install a short piece of wire at the input to
indicate safe condition.
Input configuration, including sensitivity and hold time, is set via host software.
Control Output Wiring
Two form-C relay contacts are provided for controlling other devices. Each may be
assignedto a general-purposeoutput. Theyare configurableas standard (energizeto
activate) or fail-safe (de-energize to activate) by the host software.
The energized or ON time of each relay can be configured using pulse control for single or
repeating pulses by the host software. The energized or ON time of a single pulse can be
extended up to 24 hours. For repeating pulses, the on/off time can be defined in 0.1
second increments and repeated up to 255 times.

PW-5000 Input Module 13Installation Guide
TD1116 rev1101
Both relays 1 & 2 are rated for dry contact signal or load switching. While they are sized
to handle typical loads, load switching can cause abnormal contact wear and premature
contact failure. Switching of inductive loads (e.g.., strikes) also causes EMI (electromag-
neticinterference)which may interferewith normaloperationofother equipment.To
minimize premature contact failure and to increase system reliability, a contact protection
circuit is highly recommended.The following circuit is suggested.Locate the protection
circuit as close to the load as possible (within 12 inches [30 cm]), as the effectiveness of
the circuit will decrease as the distance from the load increases.

Relay 2 is a general-purpose relay output and is not available when the board is rack
mounted.
Use sufficiently large gauge of wires for the load current so as to avoid voltage loss.
Mounting Options
Thisboard can be mountedon-edgein the rack-mount enclosure providedbyNexWatch or
it can be mounted flat against any surface using standoffs under the mounting holes
provided in each of the four corners of this board.
When this board is rack-mounted, the connectors for one general-purpose output, and
two dedicated inputs, are not accessible and should not be used.
The most common reason for mounting a board flat is that it is installed remotely to be
located near the alarms being monitored. In this case, mount it in its own enclosure.Use
the two dedicated inputs to monitor cabinet tamper and power fault. The additional
general-purpose output provided allows for control of a local horn or other equipment.
Suggested Installation Sequence
1.Set Jumpers and DIP-switches.
2.Mount this board in the appropriate enclosure – If this board is being mounted in a
rack, the component side of the board is to your right as you face the rack.
3.Connect the communications and power supply to the circuit boards with the Power
Supply Harness.
WARNING: DO NOT CONNECTTHE POWER SUPPLYTOTHE AC SOCKET UNTIL
ALLWIRING HAS BEEN INSTALLED AND RECHECKED.
4.Connect wiring to alarm input sensors or install jumper wire as appropriate.
5.Connect relay output wiring as appropriate.
6.Connect communications wiring to the Intelligent Controller.
7.Recheck wiring for correct connections and continuity.
8. When all boards have been installed, connect the Power Supply Cord for
proper connections and power.
9. Setup the panel controls using the host software.
