1. DESIGN AND APPLICATION
MCT64E-IO and MCT66E-IO are access terminals dedicated to RACS 5 system. Depending on their
versions, devices enable identification of users by PINs and/or EM125kHz (UNIQUE) proximity cards.
Terminals are connected to access controller through RS485 interface. Devices can be installed in outdoor
locations without any additional protection measures.

Power supply
The terminal requires power supply voltage in range of 11-15VDC. It can be supplied from MCX2D/MCX4D
expander of MC16-PAC-KIT, from MC16 access controller (e.g. TML output) or from dedicated power
supply unit. The supply wire diameter must be selected in such way that the voltage drop between supply
output and the device would be lower than 1V. The proper wire diameter is especially critical when device is
located in long distance from the supply source. In such a case the use of dedicated power supply unit
located close to the device should be considered. When separate power supply unit is used then its minus
should be connected to controller’s GND by means of signal wire with any diameter. It is recommended to
use UTP cable for connection of device to controller. The table below shows maximal UTP cable lengths in
relation to the number of wires used for power supply.

RS485 bus
The communication method with MC16 access controller is provided with RS485 bus which can encompass
up to 16 devices of RACS 5 system, each with unique address in range of 100-115. The bus topology can
be freely arranged as star, tree or any combination of them except for loop. The matching resistors
(terminators) connected at the ends of transmitting lines are not required. In most cases communication
works with any cable type (standard telephone cable, shielded or unshielded twisted pair etc.) but the
recommended cable is unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP cat.5). Shielded cables should be limited to
installations subject to strong electromagnetic interferences. The RS485 communication standard used in
the RACS 5 system guarantees proper communication in a distance of up to 1200 meters as well as high
resistance to interferences.
Note: Do not use more than single pair in UTP cable for RS485 communication bus.

Keypad
MCT64E-IO is equipped with numeric keypad and backlight. The keypad can be used for user identification
with PIN and for various keypad commands. By default, the key [#] is used for PIN confirming.
Numeric keypad includes [*] and [#] keys which can be configured as function keys.
LED indicators
Terminals are equipped with three LED indicators which are used to signal integral functions and they can
be additionally programmed with other available functions within high level configuration (VISO).

SYSTEM
Orange

Note: Synchronic pulsing of LED indicators signifies lost communication with MC16 controller.
Buzzer
Terminals are equipped with buzzer which is used to signal integral functions and it can be additionally
programmed with other available functions within high level configuration (VISO).
Inputs
Terminals offer 3 general purpose inputs of NO/NC type. Input types are defined within low level
configuration (RogerVDM). Input functions are assigned within high level configuration (VISO). Multiple
functions can be assigned to the same input at the same time.
Tamper detector
Built-in tamper (sabotage) detector enables detection of unauthorized opening of device’s enclosure as well
as detachment of the enclosure from wall. The detector is internally connected to TMP screw terminals. It
does not require low level configuration (RogerVDM) but it is necessary to connect it to controller with wires
as in example in fig. 3. It is also essential to mount front panel in such way as the tamper detector (fig. 4)
would firmly press the back panel.
The input of controller for connection of tamper loop requires low level configuration in regard of NC type
(RogerVDM) and high level configuration consisting in assignment of the function [133] Tamper Toggle on
the level of a Main Board of a controller in VISO software navigation tree.

Outputs
Terminals offer 2 transistor open collector type outputs (15V/1A rated) and 1 relay output with NO/NC
contacts (30V/1.5A DC/AC rated). Electric parameters such as polarity are configured within low level
configuration (RogerVDM). Function are assigned to outputs within high level configuration (VISO). Multiple
functions with different priorities can be assigned to the same output at the same time.
Identification
Depending on the version, following user identification methods are offered by terminals:
EM125kHz (UNIQUE) proximity cards
PINs
EM125kHz cards
EM125kHz proximity cards are widely used in office buildings. If it is necessary to ensure higher level of
security then MIFARE card readers e.g. MCT12M are recommended.
The technical characteristics of the device are guaranteed for RFID cards supplied by Roger. Cards from
other sources may be used, but they are not covered by the manufactures warranty. Before deciding to use
specific Roger products with third-party contactless cards, it is recommended to conduct tests that will
confirm satisfactory operation with the specific Roger device and software in which it operates.
PINs
MCT64E-IO accepts variable length PINs (by default 4-8 digits concluded with [#] key).

Installation guidelines
The terminal should be mounted on a vertical structure (wall) away from sources of heat and
moisture.
Front panel should be attached in such way as the tamper detector (fig. 4) would firmly press the
back panel.
All electrical connections should be done with disconnected power supply.
If the terminal and controller are not supplied from the same PSU then GND terminals of both
devices must be connected with any wire.
Clean front panel regularly by means of wet cloth and mild detergent. Do not clean by means of
abrasive materials and strong cleaners like alcohols, solvents, etc. Damages to screen surface are
beyond the scope of warranty.
3. OPERATION SCENARIOS
The terminal when connected to MC16 access controller can be at the same time used for access control
and Time&Attendance. The example of connection diagram for such scenario is shown in fig. 7 where inputs
and outputs from MC16 board are used and in fig. 8 where inputs and outputs from terminal are used. The
terminal can also operate with MC16 controller using MCX2D/MCX4D expanders as in case of M16-PAC-
KIT series. Various scenarios of operation with MC16 controllers are presented in AN002 application note.
