3INTRODUCTION
3.1 Designed Function
The PR311 access controller has been designed for use in access control installations or systems as an outdoor
access control device to enable user identification via EM 125 kHz UNIQUE standard proximity cards and/or
PINs. The PR311 unit can operate stand-alone or as a part of integrated (networked) access control system.
When controller operate as a stand-alone unit it independently (i.e. autonomously) controls the supervised door
access point. In this mode controller doesn’t offer either event recording or time schedules (time tables).
Programming of a unit can be done locally using its keypad and programming cards or remotely from PC. The
connection to PC requires UT-2 programming interface and programming software (e.g. PR Master or PR Master
Lt). The PR Master is used to administrate the Integrated Access Control System which consist of PRxx1 and
PRxx2 access controllers (from Roger), the PR Master Lt is a reduced version the PR Master and is dedicated
only for configuration of a single controller unit.
If controller is a part of the Integrated Access Control System which is managed by the Host device the PR311
extends its functionality and enables definition of user access groups, time schedules and recording of events.
The PR311 can be configured for operation with external XM-2 I/O Extension Module and external PRT series
reader. The use of XM-2 adds two NO/NC type inputs and two relay outputs to the controller. The system setup
utilizing an XM-2 module provides higher level of security for door access control system by separating its
logical element (the controller unit) from the actuator element controlling the door lock (i.e. the door lock
relay). The use of external PRT reader enables two-way door control.
Note: If programmed from PC the PR311 requires RACS 4.2 or higher.

Time schedules for Identification Mode and Door Mode
128 time periods perschedule
Eventsrecorded by Host (CPR32SE Host controller or PC with PR Master program in online mode)
3.3 Operation in the Integrated Access System
In this case the PR311 is a part of an Integrated Access Control System (IACS) which operate under control of
the Host device. The Host device adds some extra functionality to entire access system. When the PR311
operates in the IACS users can be divided into 256 access groups, each group may have different access
authorization controlled by a time schedule. The PR311 allows up to 32 time schedules which are used to
control access and two special schedules – one of them controls the Identification Mode while the other controls
the Door Mode.Events which occur in the IACS are stored by Host device. If the communication with the Host
is broken the PR311 continues operation with time schedule settings which existed when communication
disappeared. After communication with the Host resumes all clock related settings (e.g. time schedules) are
refreshed and updated.

3.4 Stand-alone Operation
In this case the PR311 access controller autonomously supervises door passage and doesn’t require any
connection to the Host device. All users belong to the same group which has permanent access authorization
regardless of time. Neither the Identification Mode nor Door Mode can be controlled by time schedules, events
are not registered.
4FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
4.1 Users
The PR311 can register up to 1000 users. Every user has its ID (identification) number from 001 to 999 and
may have its card and PIN. The PR311 controller precludes assignment of the same cardsor PINs for 2 different
users. Users can be identified by cards, PINsor both methods simultaneously. The PIN codes may have from 3
to 6 digits and whenever entered must be followed by [#] mark which is used to mark the end of a code.
The PR311 controller supports five types (classes) of users: MASTER, INSTALLER, NORMAL, TOGGLE and
TOGGLE LTD. Each of the class has different authorization for programming, unlocking and rearming of a
controller.
Table 1: User types
User Type ID number Description
INSTALLER No ID Authorization for entry to the Installer Programming only.
MASTER 000 Authorization for user programming commands, unlocking and rearming.
TOGGLE ID=01…49 Authorization for unlocking and rearming.
TOGGLE LTD ID=50…99 Authorization for rearming only.
NORMAL ID=100…999 Authorization for unlocking only.
Note: By default each User Programming Command requires the MASTER identifier; nevertheless installer can
clear this request for some or for all of User Commands.
4.2 Group of Users
When the PR311 controller operates in the stand-alone mode all users programmed to a unit belongs to the
same group of users, as a result they have the same access authorization (i.e. access level) which doesn’t
dependsof a time - all users programmed to a unit have access to a controlled door.
When the PR311 controller is a part of Integrated Access Control System controlled by the Host device, all the
users can be divided into 256 groups and may have different access authorization. The access level of each
group can be controlled by time schedule, the PR311 allows up to 32 different time schedules to be defined for
a unit.
4.3 User Identification
The PR311 recognize the users by means of theirs identifiers. Each user programmed to the controller may
have card and/or PIN. The method which controller uses for user identification depends on the actual
Identification Mode. The Identification Mode determines which kind of identifier (card, PIN or both) a user must
use in order to be accepted by the controller. The PR311 enables following identification methods:
Card only:controller accepts only cards
PIN only:controller accepts only PINs
Card or PIN:controller requires card or PIN, only one of them is necessary for a successful identification
Card and PIN:controller requires card and PIN, both of them are necessary for a successful
identification.
Note: For Card and PIN mode user must read its card and enter its PIN, sequence doesn’t matter.

4.4 ARMED and DISARMED Modes
The PR311 has two working operating modes: Armed and Disarmed mode. The actual controller’s operating
mode is indicated on the dual color LED STATUS, which lights in redfor Armed or green for Disarmed.Generally
the Armed and Disarmed modes are dedicated for integration of the controller with the alarm system which
protects the same room or area which is supervised by the access controller, nevertheless they can be used for
any other control purpose which requires an On/Off control method. The integration with the alarm system (or
another device or system) requires one output line to be configured to function no. 00 (Disarmed Mode) and
one input line configured to input no. 13 function (Ready Status). The controller output line (function no. 00)
indicates current operating mode of the controller, whereas the input line (function no. 13) verifies if the
controlled system (or device) is ready to be armed (or set ON).
Note: When the installer doesn’t define any controller’s input to the function no. 13, the controller assumes that
the alarm system is always ready for arming and switches to armed mode unconditionally.
Note: Either upon powering on or Memory Reset reader automatically enters the Armed mode. After exit from
programming mode reader returns to arming mode (either Armed or Disarmed) it was before entry to the
programming.
4.5 Arming and Disarming of the Controller (Rearming)
The action changing the controller from Armed to Disarmed and back (i.e. reverse direction) is referred to
hereinafter as REARMING. The term “arming” should be understood here as the action effecting a switch into
the Armed mode, whereas the term “disarming” a switch into the Disarmed mode.
Controller can be rearmed in few methods listed below:
by an input line configured to function no. 03 (arming and disarming by steady switch)
by an input line configured to function no. 61 (arming and disarming by momentary switch)
by an input line configured to function no. 78 (disarming by momentary switch)
by an input line configured to function no. 79 (arming by momentary switch)
by the MASTER user (by use of the MASTER identifier)
by the TOGLLE user (by use of the TOGGLE identifier)
by the TOGGLE LTD user (by use of the TOGGLE LTD identifier)
by an interactive command from PC
by the Armed/Disarmed Schedule
The rearming can be carried out either from the controller or from the external reader connected to the
controller.
Note: All methods listed above except first one can be used simultaneously to control Arm/Disarm mode of the
controller. When any of the controller input is configured to function no. 3 (arming and disarming by steady
switch) all other methods of rearming are inoperative.
Reader rearming command can be issued by MASTER, TOGGLE or TOGGLE LTD users. To rearm the reader a
MASTER and TOGGLE user is required to enter its identifier twice, whereas a TOGGLE LTD user needs to enter
its identifier once.
Example: Rearming the controller by using a TOGGLE identifier (when Card and PIN mode is active)
Read your TOGGLE user card,
enter your TOGGLE user PIN,
once the identifier is accepted the LED SYSTEM starts flashing,
read your TOGGLE user card or enter your TOGGLE user PIN,
after last step the controller changes its arming mode (watch for the LED STATUS to change a color).
Note: If the Card and PIN mode is active the first step of identification requires both elements (card and PIN) to
be entered, in the second step controller requires only one method of identification (card or PIN).
Example: Rearming the controller by using a TOGGLE identifier (when Card only mode is active)
Read your TOGGLE user card,
once the identifier is accepted the LED SYSTEM starts blinking,
read your TOGGLE user card once again,
after last step the controller changes its arming mode (watch for the LED STATUS to change color).

Note: If programmed the condition on the input line configured to function no. 13 can disable arming of a
controller.
4.6 Unlocking aDoor
In order to unlock the door a user is obliged to enter his identifier. Whenever this happens the device activates
LED SYSTEM (orange) for a moment and generates a short confirmation beep. If the entered identifier has
authorization for entry controller energizes the door lock for the predefined time. The lock activation is signaled
on LED OPEN (green), which remains ON for as long as the door lock is energized. When access to the
supervised room is denied the reader generates error sound (long beep).
The access to a room can be rejected in the following situations:
When entered identifier is unknown;
When entered identifier belongs to the TOGGLE LTD class of users;
When controller operates in Armed mode and the user which entered identifier has not an AWA Privilege
assigned;
When the input line configured to function no. 11 (Access Disabled) is in active condition;
When access is disabled by relevant time schedule (this rule refers to operation in IACS)
4.7 Option: Deactivate Door Release After Door Open
Normally when this option is not set controller activates a door release device and keep it energized by entire
predefined time (Installer Programming function [46][OT]). When this option is set door release device is
triggered till the moment when controller recognize that door became open but not longer that time defined by
function [46].
4.8 Option: Access When Controller Armed (AWA Privilege)
Normally when controller is Armed access to the controlled door is disabled for all types of users except the
MASTER user. This rule can be changed by an option: Access When Armed (alternatively called: AWA
Privilege). When this option is set user may enter the room when controller operates either in the Armed or in
the Disarmed mode. The AWA Privilege can be set individually for each user programmed to the controller. The
PR311 controller offers separate sets of programming commands, one for the users which are allowed for AWA
Privilege and another for the users which are not granted with this privilege.
4.9 Duress Function
If the user enters a PIN code which differs from its original form by +/-1 on the last position of a code it will be
treated as a DURESS entry. The DURESS PIN code is accepted by a controller as a normal valid one, the only
difference is that entry of such code triggers the DURESS flag and activate the DURESS Flag output (when
programmed). The recognition of DURESS codes can be disabled by the installer. When DURESS option is
enabled all PINs programmed to a unit must differ one from each other by +/-1 on the last code position.
(Default: Option Disabled)
4.10 Facility Code
The Facility Code is a part of the entire card code and can be a number from 000 to 255. When Facility Code
option is set controller accepts not only cards which are programmed to its memory but also all other cards
which are characterized with the same Facility Code. As a result of the Facility Code option access can be
granted to large number of users which are not programmed into a device. Typically,the Facility Option is used
when controller is dedicated for installation were number of users exceedsone thousand. During configuration
process installer can assign an AWA Privilege to a group of Facility cards so they card with Facility codes) will be
able to open a door even when controller is armed. (Default: Option Disabled)
4.11 Option: Timed Lock-out of the Controller
If the controller recognizes three consecutive attempts of entry of a non-valid identifier it will ignore all
identifiers within next three minutes (cards and PINs). Option can be set or cleared by installer.
4.12 System Flags

PR311 v1.0 fv102 EN Rev.E.DOC 10/22/2007
9
Flagsare logical registers which exist in controller’s memory. Each Flag represent a status of relevant situation
which may occur on controller. For example if a user enters a DURESS PIN code this will activate (setsON) the
DURESS flag, when controller recognizestriggering of the TAMPER input it will trigger (setsON) the TAMPER
flag etc.
The PR311 utilizes the following flags:
AUX1 Flag
LIGHT Flag
TAMPER Flag
DURESS Flag
TROUBLE Flag
Depending on a type of the Flag it can be set or cleared by various situations (see table below). Every Flag has
assigned a Timer. The Timer specifies for what time the relevant Flag will remain active after it is set ON. The
Flag Timer can be programmed in seconds [SS] or minutes [MM]. The Timersfor AUX1 and LIGHT flags can be
optionally programmed to a value SS=00 (operation in Latch mode), in this case once the Flag is set it will
remain in ON mode for unlimited time till the moment when adequate command or other event will occur which
will clear it.

Note: All Flags are automatically cleared in following situations: after controller’s restart, after entry to the
Installer Programming or when controller is being programmed from a PC.
4.13 Operation with External PRT Series Reader
The PR311 is capable to operate with external PRT series reader. If used the PRT reader enables two-way door
control. The PRT reader should be connected to controller’s CLK and DTA lines and must have an address set to
ID=0. The maximum distance between controller and the PRT reader is limited to 150m.
4.14 Operation with XM-2 I/O Extension Module
The PR311 is capable to operate with external XM-2 I/O extension module. If used the XM-2 adds two inputs
and two relay outputs to a controller. Each input and output of the XM-2 can be programmed on the same basis
as internal inputs and outputs of a controller. The XM-2 should be connected to controller’s CLK and DTA lines
and should have address set to ID=5. The maximum distance between a controller and the XM-2 extension
module is limited to 150m.
4.15 Alarms
The PR311 controller has been designed to detect and indicate the following alarm types:
Forced Door
Prealarm
Door Ajar
The alarm signaling is carried out over the dedicated output line. Each alarm can be signaled on separate
output or alternatively the one output line can be configured to signal two or even three alarms. The alarm
signaling the PR311 uses different signal modulation of an output, depending on alarm type (see table below).
Alarm duration is ~3 minutes, regardless of alarm type. Each alarm can be stopped manually within 3 minutes
from its start by using valid identifier. Additionally, a Door Ajar alarm is stopped as soon as the door is closed.
If more than one alarm is triggered, the reader indicates the alarm with the highest priority.

PR311 v1.0 fv102 EN Rev.E.DOC 10/22/2007
10
Note: Forced Entry and Door Ajar alarms will occur only if the reader operates with a Door Open Contact.
4.16 Inputs
The PR311 provides five logical inputs, three inputs are physically located on the PR311 itself and two on the
remote XM-2 I/O extension module. Each input can be configured as NO or NC type and may have assigned
function from a list below:
Table 4: Input line functions

Selecting this function will disable decoding of this input; this function
can be used for temporary input deactivation without disconnecting it
physically from the triggering source.
Door Contact
01
Input is dedicated for a contact used to indicate that the corresponding
door is open. Input activation generates a [Door opened] event,
whereas input deactivation generates a [Door closed] event.
Exit Button
02
Input is dedicated for operation with a button which will be used to
open the corresponding door without using any identifier. Activation of
this input will activate the door lock for the same time period as after a
standard [Access granted] event. This function is usually used to enable
connection of a Request To Exit (REX) button. Activation/deactivation of
the input generates an [Exit button ON]/[ Exit button OFF] event
respectively.
Arm/Disarm Steady
Switch
03
Input is dedicated for operation with some types of switches which upon
their activation make the controller go into Disarmed mode. When the
switch is not active the controller will stay in Armed mode.
Note: Only one input on the PR311 controller can be configured to this
function. When this function is selected any other methods of
Arming/Disarming will be forbidden.
AUX Input
04
The only effect of activation and deactivation of this input is that it will
be registered by the Host unit (when controller operates in Integrated
Access System). This input is dedicated for auxiliary monitoring purpose
and can be used to register condition of a switch or voltage applied to
the input.
AC Lost 05 Input is dedicated for connection to an output line or a contact which is

5PROGRAMMING
The PR311 controller can be programmed manually or from PC. There are two programming modes: the User
Programming Mode and the Installer Programming Mode. The User Programming Mode is dedicated to maintain
Cards and PINs programmed to a unit and for a control of the outputs. The Installer Programming Mode is
dedicated for a detailed configuration of a unit.
5.1 Memory Reset Procedure - Programming MASTER Identifier
The Memory Reset Procedure clears entire contents of the PR311 memory and restores default settings.
During this procedure the new MASTER identifier and the new controller ID number (address) can be
programmed. After Memory Reset the MASTER identifier operates also as INSATLLER identifier, so it can be
used later to enter the Installer Programming Mode. The Memory Reset consists of the following steps:
Power down the unit.
Remove all connections from CLK and DTA lines.
Make connection between CLK to DTA lines.
Restore power, the unit will generate a continuous beep.
Wait until the LED OPEN (green) startsflashing.
Disconnect CLK from DTA.
Enter one from the following sequences:
Sequence A: [Card] or
Sequence B: [New MASTER PIN][#][New MASTER Card][#] or
Sequence C: [New MASTER PIN][#][New MASTER Card][New ID address][#]
Controller generates the OK signal (two series of three beeps)
Once the previous step has been completed the unit automatically ends the Memory Reset Procedure
and enters an operating mode.
The programming sequence A programs the new MASTER card only, the controller ID number is automatically
set to ID=00. The programming sequence B programs new MASTER PIN and the new MASTER card, the
controller ID number is automatically set to ID=00. The programming sequence C programs new MASTER PIN,
new MASTER card and sets new ID number. If the Memory Reset is not accomplished successfully after power
up the controller will signal memory error (LED SYSTEM is ON and the controller generates acoustic signal in
sequence 2s sound/2s pause).
Note: Controller ID number must be in range from ID=00 to ID=99.
5.2 User Programming
In the PR311 the User Programming consist of 10 programming commands which can be accessed directly from
the either Armed or Disarmed mode. As a default each of the user programming commands requires a MASTER
identifier to be entered during programming sequence, nevertheless this obligation can be switched off for
some (or all) commands by the installer, if such occur command(s) can be accessed by every user.
When you start entering a command sequence the LED SYSTEM starts flashing and it keeps flashing until the
command is accomplished. If the controller receives no valid input (entries) from you for more than 20 sec. it
automatically leaves the command procedure and returns to operating mode it was before.
5.2.1 User Programming Commands
Legend:
[NNN]–three digits which specify the user ID number, the allowed range is from 001 to 999, always three
digits

5.3 Installer Programming
Use this mode to configure various functionalities of the PR311 controller. You can enter it from either from
Armed or Disarmed mode by following command:
[01#] [INSTALLER]
Note: No matter what is the actual Identification Mode set on the controller the [INSTALLER] can be a Card or
PIN (only one of them is required).
Once in the Installer Programming Mode the LED SYSTEN turns ON and the LED STATUS lights in green. From
this mode you have an access to various programming functions which are intended to adopt a programmed
unit for the individual installation requirements. Once the first digit of any programming command is pressed
both indicators (LED SYSTEM and LED STATUS) start to flash and continue flashing till the end of programming
command or till the moment when a programming error occur. When command is successful accomplished the
PR311 generates signal OK (three beeps) but still remains in the Installer Programming. Exit from the Installer
Programming mode can be achieved through function [00][#] or is done automatically when the controller
doesn’t have any entries through 4 minutes.

6INSTALLATION AND SETUP GUIDELINES
The PR311 reader should be mounted near the supervised door on a vertical piece of supporting
structure.
Assure that the surface beneath of the controller’s rear panel is flat and smooth, especially in the area
where tamper sensor will contact a surface of the wall.
Disconnect power supply before making any electrical connections.
For installations on a metal surface, place a non-metallic min. 10 mm thick spacer (a plastic/plaster
plate etc.) between the reader and the supporting structure.
For installations with two readers to be mounted on opposite sides of the same wall and aligned along
the same geometrical axis, place a metal plate between them and make sure none of them has direct
contact with it (allow min. 10 mm space ).
For best results mount the proximity readers at least 0.5 m apart.
When using separate power supply sources, connect all power supply negative (–) leads together.
Roger recommends to ground the negative (–) power supply lead.
With its relatively weak electromagnetic field generation, the terminal should not cause any harmful
interference to operation of other equipment. However, its card reading performance can be affected by
other interference generating devices, esp. radio waves emitting equipment or CRT computer monitors.
If card reading performance of the controller deteriorates (e.g. reduced reading range or incorrect
readings) consider reinstallation in a new location.
Once installed and electrically connected, the reader has to be properly configured. The programming
can be carried out either through manual method or from PC. A new factory unit is delivered with
preprogrammed MASTER card and with address set to ID=00.
When lost, MASTER or INSTALLER cards can be reprogrammed to a reader anew, any EM 125 kHz card
can be programmed as a MASTER or an INSTALLER card. If required the MASTER users and/or
INSTALLER user can be programmed as a PIN code only, Card only or as both a Card and a PIN.
It is strongly recommended to program the controller form one source only: from PC program or
manually. When both methods are used to the same unit it may result in some confusion (e.g. new user
added manually will not exist in PC program).
When controller is intended to be managed from PC only you don’t have to program any MASTER or
INSTALLER card/PIN, just program ID address of the unit and connect it to the computer.
When controller operates in an Integrated Access Control System it must be connected to RS485
communication bus.
The communication bus can be laid down using free topology –bus, star, three or any combination of
them. It is forbidden to use topology of a ring.
Generally the twisted, unshielded cables are recommended for communication bus (popular UTP cables).
No terminating resistors on the ends of communication bus are required.
The maximum cable run between any controller on the communication bus and a host PC must not
exceed 1200m.
The maximum cable run between controller and external unit(s) connected to Clock and Data lines (e.g.
external reader or I/O extension module) can be maximum 150m long.
The controller must be supplied form reliable power supply, calculate the adequate wire gauge to
guarantee that the voltage dropout between the power supply and the supplied unit doesn’t exceed 1V
in the worst case.
It is recommended to supply door release device (e.g. door strike or magnet lock) from separate power
supply. When both controller and door release device are supplied from the same power source you
must use separate cable pairs for both of them.
Always add the silicon diode (e.g. 1N400x series) in parallel to door release device –locate diode as
close as possible to door release and as far as possible from the controller.
Do not supply the door release from the supply terminals of a controller.
