1.3.1 PSU output voltage
The PSU output voltage is 12V DC. The power supply provides two 12V outputs. One is pre-wired to
power the ACTpro door station; the second is available to power locks. The full load current is shared
between the two outputs. Vanderbilt recommend that a maximum of 1.5A is used to power locks and
readers. The remaining 0.5A is used by the door station and battery charging. Total current from both
outputs must not exceed 2A.
1.4 Power budget
The PSU 2A output current is used to power the door station and supply the battery recharge current.
500mA is reserved for battery recharge and to power the door station. Therefore 1.5A is available to power
readers and the lock.
A complete access control system will require readers and a lock mechanism all of which will require
power.
The following table should be used for calculating the power budget.
ACTpro reader (1030/1040/1050/1060) 100mA
ACTpro MIFARE reader (1030/1040/1050) 100mA
VR10S-MF, VR40S-MF readers 220mA
VR20M-MF, VR50M-MF Mullion readers 150mA
Typical mag lock (consult your supplier) 800mA
1.4.1 Example power budget
The power budget of a typical single door read in/out installation is:
Total current available 2000mA
Door station and battery recharge 500mA

2 Installation
The ACTpro-120 door station is for indoor installation only and must be installed as permanently connected
equipment.
An external AC disconnect device must be fitted. Before installation ensure that the AC supply to the
ACTpro-120 door station is disconnected.
AC power should be connected to the ACTpro-120 door station by a licensed electrician in accordance
with local/national codes.
2.1 Mounting
Mount the ACTpro-120 door station directly onto the wall with the supplied screws. The keyed mounting
hole should be screwed first to the wall to aid the mounting.
The unit should be installed in a ventilated area that allows for accessibility after installation.
2.2 AC power up
1. Attach a correctly rated AC cable and fasten using the cable tie.
Use an approved external AC disconnect device.
2. Apply AC power.
3. Check the AC OK LED is on and measure the +12V output.

2.3 AC power up (USA)
1. Attach a correctly rated AC cable and fasten using the cable tie.
2. Use an approved external AC disconnect device.
3. Apply AC power. Check the AC OK LED is on and measure the +12V output.
2.4 Battery insertion
1. Disconnect the AC.
2. Ensure the battery has enough charge to supply the load.
3. Connect the red battery lead to the + battery terminal and the black lead to the – terminal.
4. Apply the AC power and check the AC OK green LED is illuminated.
5. Remove the AC power and check that ON BATTERY amber LED is illuminated.
If the amber LED is illuminated the battery is now supplying the output.
6. Re-apply the AC power.
The AC OK LED will illuminate and the ON BATTERY LED will extinguish.

3.7 Break Glass monitoring only
The break glass monitoring features only monitors the break glass status and does not remove power from
the lock. Vanderbilt assumes a double pole break glass unit is used, one pole to disrupt the power to the
lock the second pole for monitoring.
When the break glass is not activated the B/GL input pin is held low at 0V. When the break glass device is
activated the B/GL input pin will lose the 0V (goes high) and report a break glass event. The lock should be
wired such that when the break glass is activated power to the lock is removed.

station.
Output
Voltage
The PSU output voltage level is reported to the ACT Enterprise software and on the web browser.

5 Status Indicators
Status indicators appear on the front of the ACTpro-120.
The meaning of each indicator is described below.
(A) Power / System Running
This indicates that the ACTpro-120 has power.
(B) Communications
Constant illumination indicates that the door station is online.
(C) Fault
Illuminates to indicate a fault on the system.
Possible causes are:
lTamper open: Door station housing is not closed.
lBreak Glass: The fault LED will illuminate if the emergency break glass switch is activated.
lComms Offline: Door station is offline.
lAC Fault: ACTpro-100 door station will accept an AC present signal from a PSU (pre-wired on ACTpro-
120). This is wired into AC PRESENT input on the PCB. When the PSU has no AC supply the fault is
active.
lLow Supply Voltage: When voltage to the +12V terminal is less than +9V.
lFuse Blown: The +12V output on the READER terminals is current limited to provide short circuit
protection. The Fault LED will illuminate if too much current is drawn from this connection.

6 LED Indicators
lGreen AC OK: Indicates that the AC power is within specification.
lAmber ON BATTERY: Indicates that the battery is supplying the output voltage.
lRed FUSE FAULT: Indicates electronic output shutdown fuse is active and that no power is being
supplied to the load.
The maximum current that the PSU can guarantee is 1.5A plus 0.5A for battery charging. Beyond this the
fuse will trip and the LED will stay on until the load is fully disconnected.
Once the load has been disconnected, remove devices to reduce the current demand below 1.5A.
It is important to calculate the power budget adequately. See Power budget on page 5 for more information.
