Figure 3 below details the wiring for terminal blocks in Figure 2, items 3 through 10.
Figure 3: Connection details for terminal blocks
Power Input
AC power input for the NAC is provided via the two unpolarised AC terminals.
Power is typically provisioned from the transformer fitted to the enclosure in
which the NAC is installed.
The NAC AC voltage requirements are specified in Specifications.
The enclosure installation manual provides further details for the transformer,
along with fuse location and specifications.
Notice! Transformers supplied by Carrier Fire & Security have internal thermal
fuses. Shorting the AC leads together may blow the thermal fuse before the
replaceable fuse can react, rendering the unit inoperative.
Notice! In case of a worn, pinched or otherwise damaged transformer lead, the
transformer must be replaced in order to avoid hazard.
The transformer leads supply high currents to the board. Poor connections lead
to excessive voltage drop and can affect system performance.
At the board connection, the installer must ensure that:
a) Terminal wiring is performed with the transformer power input disconnected.
b) The bare wire ends are neatly dressed and fully inserted into the terminal
housing. Less than 2mm of exposed wire should be visible after termination.

16
c) The complete bundle of wire strands is inserted into the screw terminal. No
broken strands should be visible.
d) There are no free strands outside of the metal block in the terminal housing.
e) The retaining screw is correctly torqued.
Note: If the TS1067E is retrofitted into an existing enclosure, the power supply
will only be rated to support devices loaded on BUS 1. BUS 2 should only be
utilized when combined with the transformer and enclosure supplied with the
TS1067E
Batteries
The Network Access Controller requires battery backup to maintain functionality
when primary power is lost. Two independent battery channels are provided for
this purpose.
Key battery requirements are listed in the Electrical section of Specifications on
page 7. The table does not specify battery dimensions, capacity and temperature
ratings as they are installation dependent. The installer is responsible for
ensuring that:
a) The specified battery or batteries, in conjunction with the configured
system load and TS1067E charger settings, provide the required system
backup and recharge times.
b) The battery operating temperature range is compatible with the specific
TS1067E installation environment; a minimum range of 0°C to +40°C is
recommended.
c) The batteries fit into the system enclosure and are oriented so that there is
no possibility of their uncovered terminals being bridged by metal when
the leads are not attached.
d) The system enclosure is properly sited and mounted to handle the
configured system weight and allow for safe installation and removal of the
batteries in compliance with the warnings in this manual and all local
codes and OHS requirements.
e) For scheduling on-going battery system checks as required by the
applicable standards and codes to ensure user safety, battery integrity
and system performance; a 3 monthly interval is suggested.
A fuse is required in the positive lead of each battery, as fitted in the
supplied battery leads; a spare is not provided. The fuse is specified in the
Electrical section of Specifications on page 7.
The battery leads are provided with receptacles to suit the 4.75mm Fast-
On tabs commonly used on 12V SLA batteries with 7Ahr and 12Ahr
capacities. Higher capacity batteries will have different terminal types,

17
necessitating the use of adaptors or modifications to the leads. When
modifying the leads:
a) Disconnect leads from the NAC.
b) Take care not to damage the fuse holder.
c) Add sleeving or covers to any exposed metal on the modified battery
connection arrangement.
Notice! Batteries can supply very high currents. This can happen when terminals
are bridged by metalwork, wires, tools, jewelry, etc. The bridging metal can get
very hot, melt, or vaporize, leading to damage and serious injuries.
Take all necessary precautions to ensure safety, including covering bare
terminals, when transporting or replacing batteries.
Notice! Batteries can be large, heavy and have slippery cases. These factors
contribute to mishandling incidents such as slipping and dropping. Impact
damage can rupture the battery case, releasing hazardous chemicals. Slips and
drops can allow terminals to contact metal, or cause injuries to the installer or
others nearby. Take all necessary precautions to ensure safety, including not
working overhead or blind in cramped areas, covering bare terminals, and using
appropriate means to safely handle the awkward and heavy units.
Notice!
Worn, pinched or otherwise damaged battery leads must be replaced in order to
avoid hazard.
Battery fitment and replacement
The battery leads supply high currents to the board during fault conditions.
Poor connections lead to excessive voltage drop and can affect system
performance.
At the board connection, the installer must ensure that:
a) Terminal wiring is performed with the battery disconnected.
b) The bare wire ends are neatly dressed and fully inserted into the terminal
housing. Less than 2mm of exposed wire should be visible after
termination.
c) The complete bundle of wire strands is inserted into the screw terminal.
No broken strands should be visible.
d) There are no free strands outside of the metal block in the terminal
housing.
e) The retaining screw is correctly torqued.
f) On completion, the polarity is verified at the board (red to positive, black to
negative) prior to battery connection.

18
At the battery connection, the installer must ensure that:
a) The positive lead (red) is the first wire connected and the last wire
disconnected.
b) The battery terminal polarity and open terminal voltage is validated prior to
a connection being made.
c) The battery tab and receptacle mate firmly and completely. It should not
be possible to remove the terminal with gentle force.
d) If a custom battery terminal is in use, the checks in the prior section
regarding wire dress, strand damage and connection firmness are
appropriately applied.
New batteries must be clearly marked with the date of installation in order
to facilitate future maintenance activities.
When batteries are replaced, the board should be queried using the
control software to validate the newly installed units.
When making voltage measurements at the battery terminals to establish
battery state, healthy batteries that have not been discharged in the
preceding 48hrs should measure >13.5V
The installer is responsible for identifying and specifying batteries within
an operating temperature range that measures up with the specific
TS1067E installation environment; a minimum range of 0°C to +40°C is
recommended.
The installer (or user) is responsible for scheduling on-going battery
system checks as required by the applicable standards and codes to
ensure user safety, battery integrity and system performance; a 3 monthly
interval is suggested.
The battery leads are designed to suit 4.75mm Fast-On tabs. SLA batteries with
7Ahr and 12Ahr capacities are available with these tabs as standard from many
suppliers.
Higher capacity batteries will have different terminal types, necessitating the use
of adaptors or modifications to the leads. In these situations, sleeving or covers
should be added to cover exposed metal on the battery tabs or connections.
Battery charging current
Nominal charging current is 350mA –1200mA, per-charger.
Auxiliary power terminals
Connect the AUX POWER +12, AUX POWER SW+ and AUX POWER −output
terminals to devices that require 12V DC power, such as detectors. Three sets of
auxiliary power output terminals are provided: if you need more than three
connections, you can use a TS0844 Power Distribution Board or TS1044 Power
Distribution Board to increase the number of terminals.

19
Note: Network Access Controller system design should consider the fuse
partitioning and load limitations specified in Appendix B: Output fusing and user
current limits on page 34.
Siren
Connect the OUT S+ and OUT S–terminals to an 8 Ω siren speaker or two 8Ω
siren speakers in parallel. Alternatively, connect a device requiring 12VDC
power.
The OUT S+ terminal is always powered. The OUT S- terminal is switched
according to the Siren SW settings.
A 1K 1/4 watt resistor (supplied) should be connected across the OUT S+ and
OUT S–terminals:
a) At the load side when driving digital inputs or other light loads.
b) At the terminals when no device is connected.
Note: Network Access Controller system design should consider the fuse
partitioning and load limitations specified in Appendix B: Output fusing and user
current limits on page 34.
Warning: The siren type must be configured correctly in CTPlus. Specifying a
siren type of DC Volts when there is an 8 Ω siren connected to the Network
Access Controller may damage the siren.

20
RS-485 Networks
The TS1067E provides three RS485 networks;
•The ChallengerPlus LAN (Figure 2, item 9)
•RS485 BUS1 (Figure 2, item 15)
•RS485 BUS2 (Figure 2, item 18)
All network interfaces have similar wiring requirements which are detailed
below in section RS485 cabling.
ChallengerPlus LAN
The PANEL (TECOM BUS) connector is used to connect the Network Access
Controller to a ChallengerPlus LAN, if required by its operating mode.
There is no power terminal on this interface: the Network Access Controller is
a slave device on the ChallengerPlus LAN, so it is not expected to power the
host, and its operating current is too high to be supplied by the host.
RS-485 buses
The Network Access Controller can have up to 16 RAS devices such as
keypads, card readers, arming stations, or Smart Door Controllers on each
BUS (local LAN). The Network Access Controller can also have up to 15 DGP
devices on BUS 1 and up to 16 DGP devices on BUS 2.
Each BUS supports protocols other than Tecom, namely OSDP v2 (Open
Supervised Device Protocol), SALLIS by SALTO, and Aperio. The protocol to
be used on each BUS can be independently configured.
All network interfaces have similar wiring requirements which are detailed
below section RS485 cabling.
Note: Devices connected to the RS-485 buses and powered by the Network
Access Controller must comply with Appendix B: Output fusing and user
current limits on page 34
Devices can be connected to the Network Access Controller via the 4-pin RS-
485 terminals for BUS 1 (Figure 2 on page 12, item 15) or BUS 2 (Figure 2 on
page 12, item 18).
Alternatively, devices can be connected to BUS 1 via the 4-pin plug-in RS-
485 sockets (Figure 2 on page 12, item 14). The sockets are for easy
connection to the expander boards that support the connection such as the
TS1061 Dual Wiegand Interface.
RS-485 cabling
Carrier Fire & Security recommends that the RS485 network wiring comply
with the following:
* Use 2 pair twisted shielded data cable such as Belden 8723.
* Keep the total length of wire on each RS-485 network below 1.5 km.
* Networks must not span buildings or separate earth zones without the use
of LAN isolation devices such as TS0893.
