Maximal D Series Overview:

Maximal Access Power/Controllers distribute and switch power to access control systems and accessories. They convert a 115VAC 60Hz input into sixteen (16) independently controlled 12VDC or 24VDC Class 2 Rated PTC protected power- limited outputs. The outputs are activated by an open collector sink or normally open (NO) dry trigger input from an Access Control System, Keypad, Push Button, REX PIR, etc. Units will route power to a variety of access control hardware devices including: Mag Locks, Electric Strikes, Magnetic Door Holders, etc. The FACP Interface enables Emergency Egress, Alarm Monitoring, or may be used to trigger other auxiliary devices. The fire alarm disconnect feature is individually selectable for any or all of the sixteen (16) outputs. All interconnecting equipment must be UL Listed.

1. Mount unit in the desired location. Mark and predrill holes in the wall to line up with the top three key holes in the enclosure. Install three upper fasteners and screws in the wall with the screw heads protruding. Place the enclosure’s upper keyholes over the three upper screws; level and secure. Mark the position of the lower three holes. Remove the enclosure. Drill the lower holes and install the three fasteners. Place the enclosure’s upper keyholes over the three upper screws. Install the three lower screws and make sure to tighten all screws (Enclosure Dimensions, pg. 16).

2. The power supply is pre-wired to the ground (chassis). Connect main incoming ground to the provided green grounding conductor lead. Connect unswitched AC power (115VAC 60Hz) to the terminals marked [L, N] on power supply board. Green “AC” LED on power supply board will turn on. This light can be seen through the LED lens on the door of the enclosure. Use 14 AWG or larger for all power connections.
   Keep power-limited wiring separate from non power-limited wiring.
   Minimum 0.25” spacing must be provided (Figs. 5-7, pgs. 10-12).
   CAUTION: Do not touch exposed metal parts. Shut branch circuit power before installing or servicing equipment. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
   Refer installation and servicing to qualified service personnel.

3. Select desired DC output voltage by setting SW1 to the appropriate position on the Maximal3D power supply, (Figs. 1 and 1a, pg. 8). Maximal5D power supply is factory set at 12VDC and Maximal7D power
   supply is factory set at 24VDC.

4. Measure the output voltage of the unit before connecting any devices to ensure proper operation. Improper or high voltage will damage these devices.

5. Output options (Fig. 2, pg. 8):
   The unit will provide either sixteen (16) switched power outputs.
   (a) Fail-Safe Switched Power outputs:
   For Fail-Safe operation connect the positive (+) input of the access control devices to terminal marked [NC]. Connect the negative (–) input of the access control devices to terminal marked [COM].
   (b) Fail-Secure Switched Power outputs:
   For Fail-Secure operation connect the positive (+) input of the access control devices to terminal marked [NO]. Connect the negative (–) input of the access control devices to terminal marked [COM].

6. Auxiliary Power outputs (unswitched):
   Connect access control devices that require constant power to the terminals marked [C] positive (+) and [COM] negative (–).

7. Input trigger options (Fig. 2, pg. 8):
   (a) Normally Open [NO] input trigger:
   Inputs 1-8 are activated by normally open or open collector sink inputs.
   Connect access control panel outputs, keypads, push buttons, REX PIRs, etc. to terminals marked [IN] and [GND]. (b) Open Collector Sink inputs:
   Connect the access control panel open collector sink positive (+) to terminals marked [IN] and the negative (–) to terminals marked [GND].

8. Fire Alarm Interface options (Figs. 8-12, pg. 14):
   A normally closed [NC] or normally open [NO] input trigger from a fire alarm control panel or a polarity reversal input from an FACP signaling circuit will affect selected outputs.
   To enable FACP Disconnect for an output turn the corresponding switch(es) [SW1-SW8] OFF on each ACM8CB board. To disable FACP disconnect for an output turn the corresponding switch(es) [SW1-SW8] ON on each ACM8CB board.
   (a) Normally Open [NO] input:
   For non-latching hook-up refer to Fig. 9, pg. 14. For latching hook-up refer to Fig. 10, pg. 14.
   (b) Normally Closed [NC] input:
   For non-latching hook-up refer to Fig. 11, pg. 14. For latching hook-up refer to Fig. 12, pg. 14.
   (c) FACP Signaling Circuit input trigger:
   Connect the positive (+) and negative (–) from the FACP signaling circuit output to the terminals marked [+ INP –]. Connect the FACP EOL to the terminals marked [+ RET –] (polarity is referenced in an alarm condition). Jumper located next to TRG LED must be cut (Fig. 2a, pg. 7 and Fig. 8, pg. 14).

9. FACP Dry form “C” output (Fig. 2b, pg. 7):
   FACP form “C” contacts can be use to trigger reporting or signaling devices.
   These contact switch upon a fire alarm input trigger to the ACM8CB boards.

10. Stand-by Battery Connections (Figs. 3-7, pgs. 9-13):
    For Access Control applications batteries are optional. If batteries are not used a loss of AC will result in the loss of output voltage. Batteries must be lead acid or gel type. Connect one (1) 12VDC battery to the
    terminals marked [+ BAT –] for 12VDC operation (Fig. 3a, pg. 9). Use two (2) 12VDC batteries wired in series for 24VDC operation.

11. Battery and AC Supervision outputs (Figs. 3-4, pgs. 9-10):
    It is required to connect supervisory trouble reporting devices to outputs marked [AC Fail, BAT FAIL] supervisory relay outputs marked [NC, C, NO] to appropriate visual notification devices.
    Use 22 AWG to 18 AWG for AC Fail & Low/No Battery reporting.

12. Installation of tamper switch (Not Included) (Figs. 3b-4a, pgs. 9-10):
    Mount UL Listed tamper switch (Altronix Model TS112 or equivalent) at the top of the enclosure. Slide the tamper switch bracket onto the edge of the enclosure approximately 2” from the right side (Figs. 3b and 4a, pgs. 9-10). Connect tamper switch wiring to the Access Control Panel input or the appropriate UL Listed reporting device. To activate alarm signal open the door of the enclosure.
