Installation and Operation

1Main AC Power Switch / Circuit Breaker

This is the main AC power switch for the enclosure. This switch

lights when power is on and also has a built-in circuit breaker rated

at 8A. If the circuit breaker trips, reset it by cycling the switch to off

then back to on.

2AC Line Input

This is the connector for the AC line cord. Plug the included computer-

style line cord into this connector. Connect the other end of the cord to

the power strip inside the rack or another suitable AC power receptacle.

iThe PSX Series is preconﬁgured for a 120VAC input. See sec-

tion 1.3.2 to set for a 230VAC input.

3Ethernet Connection

This is the RJ45 jack for the network connection for the internal NetLink

board (if present). The ethernet cable is plugged into this jack. This jack

is only present on PSX series power supplies with a model number end-

ing in "N". See Section 2.2 and the corresponding NetLink manual for

more information.

4Field Wiring

These terminals provide the ﬁeld wiring connections. Terminal

quantity and function varies based on conﬁguration and the func-

tion is marked adjacent to each terminal. All rear terminal blocks

may be secured with the screw on either end of the block. These

terminals all accept AWG 12-22.

• (PSX-ISUSE only) Controlled Outputs 1&2 — These are the

zone outputs. The PSX-ISUSE has 16 outputs. The output num-

bers correspond with the output zone numbers on the front panel.

See Section 1.4.1 for more information.

• (PSX-ISUSE only) Control Inputs 1&2 — These terminals are

the inputs which control the corresponding outputs. These in-

puts accept a NO or NC dry contact, voltage, or open collector

(transistor) input. See #10 for conﬁguring input type.

• Bat(±) — This is where the battery connection is made. The

voltage of the battery set must match the voltage of the associ-

ated power supply. Dual power supply models will have two

independent battery connections. See Section 1.41 for more

information.

• DC1(±) —This is a bulk power output with the full power of

the associated power supply available on these terminals. Dual

power supply models will have two DC1 outputs. See Section

1.4.1 for more information.

• DC2(±) —This is an FAI-controllable bulk power output with

the full power of the associated power supply available on these

terminals. Dual power supply models will have two DC2 outputs.

See Section 1.4.1 for more information.

• ACF & SF — These terminals accept the optional FAI input for

controlling the DC2 outputs and any controlled output which has

FAI control enabled. See Section 1.4.1 for more information.

• V+, I+, I–, V–, L, L —These terminals accept the optional FAI

input for controlling the DC2 outputs. See Section 1.4.1 for

more information.

5Bus Selection

These jumpers select the output voltage for each output in dual voltage

systems. Single voltage systems should leave these jumpers in the DC1

(UP) Position. For dual voltage systems, selection is as follows:

• DC1 (UP) - Power Supply 1

• DC2 (DOWN) - Power Supply 2

6Output Fuses

These are the fuses for each zone output. Each fuse corresponds to

the zone LED below it.

7Fault Status LED (YELLOW)

This LED lights when the front board detects a fault condition. Fault

conditions reported by this LED include ruptured output fuse(s) or

improperly conﬁgured jumpers or switches. This LED does not in-

dicate problems with the internal power supply. See Section 3.3 for

more information.

9Fault Disable Switches (PSX-ISU only)

These switches disable fault detection by individual zone. This

allows removal of the fuse for unused zones without causing a

fault condition. See Section 2.3 for more information.

bk Output Selection (Front Board) PSX-ISUSE only

These switches are used to select a fail-safe or fail-secure output for

each zone. Switch 1 sets zone 1, switch 2 sets zone 2, and so on.

Set this switch so that the door is UNLOCKED when the zone output

LED is ﬂashing (Zone Active).

• ON (FAIL SECURE Output) By setting this switch to ON, the

zone's output terminals will output a voltage when the zone

input is activated.

• OFF (FAIL SAFE Output) By setting this switch to OFF, the

zone's output terminals will output a voltage when the zone in-

put is NOT active. This position is typically used for Mag Locks.

bl Input Selection (Rear Board) PSX-ISUSE only

These switches are used to select a normally open or normally

closed input for each zone. Switch 1 sets zone 1, switch 2 sets zone

2, and so on. Adjust this switch so that the zone's output LED is

FLASHING when the door is unlocked.

• OFF (NC/Fail Safe) Set this switch to OFF for a NC contact input

(contact OPENS to unlock door) or for a voltage input where the

voltage is REMOVED to unlock the door.

• ON (NO/Fail Secure) Set this switch to ON for a NO contact

input (contact CLOSES to unlock door) or for a voltage input

where the voltage is APPLIED to unlock the door.

bm FAI Selection (Rear Board) PSX-ISUSE only

These switches enable or disable FAI for the selected zone. Switch

1 sets zone 1, switch 2 sets zone 2, and so on.

• ON (FAI Enabled) When this switch is set to ON, the zone's

output will invert when the FAI input is active. This is typically

used to drop power to maglocks on a ﬁre alarm condition.

• OFF (FAI Disabled) When this is set to OFF, FAI will have no

effect on the zone's output.

The following are basic descriptions. Refer to the appropriate section for more detailed information. Note that the front and

back panels may appear different based on the conﬁguration of your system.

PSX Rackmount Power Supply - Installation and Operation Manual

Conﬁguration internal to the rack mount enclosure is re-

quired on PSX series power supplies prior to installation

into a rack.

1.3.1 Removing the Top Cover of the Enclosure

Use the following steps to remove the top cover of the rack-

mount enclosure and gain access to the conﬁgurable settings.

(Figure 2)

1. Lay the enclosure ﬂat on its bottom surface

2. Remove and retain the six philips head screws from

the top cover

3. Remove the top cover and set it aside in a safe location

When conﬁguration is complete, reverse the removal pro-

cedure to replace the cover.

Figure 2 - The Top Cover Mounting Screws

1.3.2 Conﬁguring for a 230VAC Input Voltage

The PSX series is factory set for a 120VAC input. If the PSX

is to be used with a 230VAC input, jumper JP1 must be cut on

ALL PSX power supplies internal to the PSX. (Figures 3 and 4).

See the PSX manual for more information.

i Failure to cut JP1 on both supplies when connecting to a

230VAC input will damage the system and void the warranty.

1.3.3 Setting the Output Voltages

The PSX series will contain one or two internal power sup-

plies, depending on model. The voltage may be set on each

PSX power supply for 12 or 24VDC .

After removing the top cover, set the output voltage of the

PSX power supplies by moving SW1 to either 12V or 24V

(See #3 in Figure 3).

See the PSX manual for more information on setting the

output voltage.

1.3.4 Enabling or Disabling Battery Presence Detection

Each PSX power supply may be set to detect a missing

battery set. To enable battery presence detection, place the

BATDET jumper ON. To disable battery presence detection,

remove the BATDET jumper, or place it on only one pin.

(See #2 in Figure 3)

1.3.5 Enabling or Disabling Earth Ground Detection

Each PSX power supply is able to detect earth ground

faults. To enable earth ground fault detection, place the

EARTH GND DET jumper ON. To disable earth ground fault

detection, remove the EARTH GND DET jumper or place it

on only one pin. (See #1 in Figure 3)

NOTE: Only one device in a system should have earth

ground fault detection enabled or conﬂicts may occur. In

addition, only ONE PSX power supply in a dual-supply PSX

system should have earth ground fault detection enabled or

a conﬂict may occur.

1.3.6 Changing the Operation of the Fault Contact Output

From the factory, PSX series supplies are shipped with a

normally open fault contact operation (relay contact closed

until a fault occurs).

This operation may be switched to a normally closed con-

tact (relay contact open until a fault occurs) by moving a

wire on each fault contact.

To switch from the default NO fault contact to a NC contact,

locate the fault output terminal strip on the PSX power sup-

ply. Identify the contact you want to change (SYS FLT or AC

FLT), loosen the terminal, remove the wire from the NO ter-

minal, move it to the NC terminal, and tighten the terminal.

NOTE: This must be done on BOTH power supplies in dual-

supply models.

1.3.7 Changing the FAI Operation

The DC2 output may be set to either power up when an FAI

is received or to drop power when an FAI is received by

changing the position of the DC2 fuse on the PSX board.

• DC2 NO Position - DC2 output has no voltage until a

valid FAI input signal is received.

• DC2 NC Position - DC2 output has voltage present in

the normal state. This voltage goes away when a valid

FAI input signal is received.

PSX Rackmount Power Supply - Installation and Operation Manual

Field wiring connections are made on the rear panel after installing

the PSX enclosure into the rack. Field wiring connections are made

to the removable terminal strips, which accept AWG 12-22 wire. The

back panel is also where the main AC power and optional ethernet

connections are made.

1.4.1 Field Wiring

The PSX Rackmount series has terminals for various inputs

and outputs as follows:

Controlled Outputs - PSX-ISUSE only

These terminals provide the distributed, controlled outputs

to the load devices. Depending on model, there will be ei-

ther 8 or 16 output zones. The output zone numbers will

correspond with the numbering of the zones on the front

panel. Polarity is indicated adjacent to each terminal. The

output is conﬁgured by setting the front and rear panel

jumpers and switches.

Control Inputs - PSX-ISUSE only

These are the zone input terminal strips. The terminals are

labeled on the back panel near the terminal strip.

•Whenusingadrycontactinput,thecontactisconnected

across the A and B terminals. When conﬁgured for a dry

contact input, it is normal to measure a voltage across

these two terminals. This voltage is current limited and will

not damage the activation contact.

•Whenusingavoltageinput,thevoltageisconnectedto

the B terminal. The activation voltage must be common

grounded with the system voltage. The activation voltage

must be between 12 and 24VDC nominal. Do not connect

anything to the A terminal of the input.

•Whenusinganopencollector(transistor)input,placea

jumper across the A and B terminals and connect the open

collector to the B terminal. Note that the input source must

be common grounded with the enclosure power source.

Battery (Bat+, Bat–)

This pair of terminals is for connection to a backup battery set, if

required for the installation. Polarity is noted adjacent to the termi-

nals. These terminals also charge the battery set.

NOTE: Observe polarity or damage to the system will occur.

Ensure the voltage of the battery set matches the voltage of

the power supply.

NOTE: It is the installer's responsibility to determine the prop-

er battery size for the installation. See the Speciﬁcations sec-

tion for battery standby current requirements.

DC1+, DC1–

The main DC output of the PSX power supply. The full cur-

rent of the PSX is available on these terminals at all times

and is unaffected by the FAI input.

DC2+, DC2–

The DC2 output may optionally be controlled by the FAI in-

put. The full current of the PSX is available on these termi-

nals. The DC2 output may be set to power up when an FAI

signal is received or to drop power when an FAI signal is

received by changing the position of the DC2 fuse on the

PSX before installing the PSX into the rack.

AC Fault (ACF)

These terminals provide the AC Fault relay output from the

PSX power supply. This relay signals when the internal PSX

power supply detects a low or missing AC input voltage.

From the factory this output is set to provide a CLOSED

connection when there is no fault. During a fault condition,

the connection between these terminals will OPEN.

To reverse this operation, see Section 1.3.6 of this manual.

System Fault (SF)

These terminals provide the System Fault relay output

from the PSX power supply. This relay signals when any

of the following conditions occur:

• Missing Battery (If BAT DET jumper is ON)

• Earth Ground Fault (If EARTH GND DET jumper is ON)

• Battery voltage out of range

• DC output voltage out of range

• Ruptured fuse

• Accessory Board Fault

• Internal Fault

From the factory this output is set to provide a CLOSED

connection when there is no fault. During a fault condition,

the connection between these terminals will OPEN.

To reverse this operation, see Section 1.3.6 of this manual.

FAI Input (V+, I+, I–, V–, L, L)

These terminals accept the optional FAI / Access Control

input for controlling the outputs. See FAI Input Usage dia-

grams on next page for more information.

Connections are as follows:

• L Terminals Latch Reset contact input. If a latching FAI In-

put is desired, a normally closed contact is placed across

these terminals. When the FAI Input is activated, it will

latch in the activated state until this contact is momentarily

opened. If the latching feature is not desired, leave these

terminals open.

• V+ & V– Terminals These terminals are a low-current aux-

iliary voltage output to be used with a dry contact or open

collector for activating the FAI Input.

• I+ & I– Terminals These terminals are the input terminals

for the FAI Input. The FAI input is activated when a voltage

between 9 and 30 volts is applied across these terminals in

the correct polarity.

iThe PSX Series is preconﬁgured for a 120VAC input.

See section 1.3.2 to set for a 230VAC input.

Installation and Operation

This section describes the ﬁnal conﬁguration as well as operation details for the PSX series power supplies.

3.1 Removing the Faceplate of the Enclosure

Use the following steps to remove the faceplate of the rack-

mount enclosure and gain access to the front boards.

1. Remove and retain the ﬁve philips head 6-32 screws

from the faceplate. DO NOT remove the four 10-32

screws securing the enclosure to the rack.

2. Carefully remove the faceplate and set it aside in a

safe location

When conﬁguration is complete, reverse the removal pro-

cedure to replace the cover, taking care to align the LEDs

with the holes in the faceplate (See ﬁgure 7).

3.2 Conﬁguring the Zones - PSX-ISUSE

Input Selection (see Figure 8)

These switches are used to select a normally open or normally

closed input for each zone. Switch 1 sets zone 1, switch 2 sets

zone 2, and so on. Adjust this switch so that the zone's output

LED is FLASHING when the door is unlocked.

•OFF(NC/FailSafe) Set this switch to OFF for a NC contact

input (contact OPENS to unlock door) or for a voltage input

where the voltage is REMOVED to unlock the door.

•ON(NO/FailSecure) Set this switch to ON for a NO contact

input (contact CLOSES to unlock door) or for a voltage input

where the voltage is APPLIED to unlock the door.

FAI Selection (see Figure 8)

These switches enable or disable FAI for the selected zone.

Switch 1 sets zone 1, switch 2 sets zone 2, and so on.

•ON(FAIEnabled)When this switch is set to ON, the zone's

output will invert when the FAI input is active. This is typically

used to drop power to maglocks on a ﬁre alarm condition.

•OFF(FAIDisabled) When this is set to OFF, FAI will have no

effect on the zone's output.

Output Selection (see Figure 9)

These switches are used to select a fail-safe or fail-secure out-

put for each zone. Switch 1 sets zone 1, switch 2 sets zone 2,

and so on. Set this switch so that the door is UNLOCKED when

the zone output LED is ﬂashing (Zone Active).

•ON(FailSecureOutput) By setting this switch to ON, the

zone's output terminals will output a voltage when the zone in-

put is activated.

•  OFF (Fail Safe Output) By setting this switch to OFF, the

zone's output terminals will not output a voltage when the zone

input is activated. This position is typically used for Mag Locks.

3.3 Conﬁguring the Zones - PSX-ISU

Each output zone is conﬁgurable for one of two selections

which vary by model type. Selections are made by moving the

zone's corresponding jumper (marked as B1 and B2 on the PC

Board). See Figure 10

Single Supply Models

Each output is conﬁgurable for continuous or FAI con-

trolled. To set the operation of the FAI controlled outputs,

see Section 1.3.6.

• B1 (Left) Continuous Output (No FAI control)

• B2 (Right) FAI Controlled Output

Dual Supply Models

Each output is conﬁgurable for either internal power supply.

PSX#1 is the power supply on the left when looking from

the front and PSX#2 is the power supply on the right.

FAI control is provided on any distributed outputs set for

PSX#2 and the DC2 terminals of both PSX power sup-

plies.

• B2 (Right) PSX PS #2

3.4 Disabling Faults - PSX-ISU

Sometimes it is desirable to disable fuse fault detection for

individual zones. This allows removal of the fuse for spe-

ciﬁc unused zones or zones with unﬁnished wiring.

Faults can be disabled via the block of switches on the top

right of each front board (See Figure 2.2). Note that the

color of this switch block may vary. Switch numbers cor-

respond with zone numbers of the board (Switch 1 disables

faults for Zone 1, etc.). Switch settings are as follows:

• ON Fault Detection Enabled

• OFF Fault Detection Disabled

3.5 Status LEDs - PSX-ISUSE

Each front board has nine LEDs (see ﬁgure 11).

The eight green LEDs indicate the status of the zone’s output.

•OnSteady–Door Locked (Fuse or PTC Intact)

•Flashing–Door Unlocked (either due to Zone Input or FAI)

•Off–Fuse open or jumper missing

The yellow LED will light if a fault condition is detected by the

RC front board.

3.6 Status LED - PSX-ISU

Each front board has nine LEDs (see Figure 12). The eight

green LEDs give the voltage availability of the associated

zone. The yellow LED will light if a fault condition is detected.

3.7 Remote Access via Ethernet (All models)

PSX-N Series Rackmount power supplies use the optional Net-

Link board to allow access over the internet or local intranet via

the ethernet port on the back of the enclosure (see ﬁgure 13).

See the PSX NetLink manual for more information.
