Warnings and Cautions
WARNING
Before installation, TTUURRNNOOFFFFthe 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 aafftteerrthe 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
FFiirreeSSaaffeettyyaannddLLiiaabbiilliittyyNNoottiiccee
Never connect card readers to any critical entry, exit door, barrier,
elevator or gate without providing aannaalltteerrnnaattiivveeeexxiittin accor-
dance 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 ACCEPT VERBAL
APPROVALS, AS THEY ARE NOT VALID.
Nexwatch never recommends using the PW-3000 or PW-5000 or
related products for use as a primary warning or monitoring sys-
tem. Primary warning or monitoring systems 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 procedures. Failure to test a system regu-
larly could make installer liable for damages to the end user if a
problem occurs.
WARNING
EARTH ground all enclosures, for proper installation.
WARNING
Use suppressors on all door strikes. Use S-4 suppressors for
installation. NexWatch recommends only DC strikes.

CAUTION
IF ANY DAMAGE TO THE SHIPMENT IS NOTICED, A CLAIM MUST
BE FILED WITH THE COMMERCIAL CARRIER RESPONSIBLE.
CAUTION
Electro-static discharge can damage CMOS integrated circuits and
modules.
To prevent damage always follow these procedures:
Use static shield packaging and containers to transport all
electronic components, including completed reader assemblies.
Handle all ESD sensitive components at an approved static
controlled workstation. These workstations consist of a desk mat,
floor mat and an ESD wrist strap. Workstations are available from
various vendors.

Reader Interface (PW5K1R1)
The PW5K1R1 provides interfacing to a TTL/Wiegand type reader
and door hardware as needed, for a single door. The Reader
Interface can accept data from a reader with clock/data or Wiegand
interface and provides a tri-stated LED control and buzzer control.
Two form-C relay outputs may be used for strike control or alarm
signaling. Two supervised inputs are provided for monitoring the
door contact and exit push button and one input (J3) for enclosure
tamper. Communication to the interface is accomplished via an
RS-485 interface.
Power, Reader and Door Hardware Wiring
All interconnection to the Interface are via quick-disconnect terminal
blocks. The Interface requires 12 VDC ±15% for power. The 12
VDC is available for powering a reader.
Reader with TTL (clock/data or wd1/wd0) interface is supported by
the Interface.
Two supervised inputs are typically used for door contact and exit
push button monitoring. End of line resistors are required for line
supervision.
Two form-C relay contacts are provided for controlling door strike
or other devices. The contact ratings are different on these outputs.
Load switching can cause contact abnormal wear and premature
contact failure. Switching of inductive loads (strike) also causes EMI
(electromagnetic interference) which may interfere with normal
operation of other equipment. To minimize contact premature
failure and to increase system reliability, contact protection circuit
must be used.

The following circuit is recommended. Locate the protection circuit
that is close to the load and one at the PW5K1R1 (within 12 inches
[30cm]), as the effectiveness of the circuit will decrease if it is
located far away.

Communication to Controller
The Interface communicates to a controller via a half duplex multi-
drop RS-485 interface. The total cable length is limited to 4,000 feet
(1,200 meters). Shielded cable of 24AWG with characteristic imped-
ance of 120 ohm and <13pf/ft capacitance is specified for the RS-
485 interface. The last devices on both end of the cable should
have the termination installed (set jumper J4 on).
Represents that the shield must be grounded on one end.
Each Interface must be configured to have a unique address and
correct baud rate. The address and baud rate are selected by
installing the specified jumpers. Use 38400 as the standard Baud
rate setting. See the following diagram.
