Wiring Diagram
Advanced Installation
Lock Controllers are designed to operate in a range of configurations, from inside lockers to trailer and trolley hire, as well as high-security gate installations. The following sections describe the wiring of Lock Controllers in common configurations.
Gate and door sense inputs
All inputs should be normally open type switches. Wire the N/O terminal of the switch into its specific channel number on the Lock Controller, then wire the common terminal of the switch into the COM terminal for that input bank.
Common (COM) terminals are shared between 4 inputs — 1–4, 5–8, 9–12 and 13–16.
Gate and door motor control
Gates and roller motors use the dry-contact configuration of Lock Controller outputs to trigger the motor to open or close.
- Check which bank of the Lock Controller will be configured for dry-contact operation. Assign all dry-contact outputs to the same bank where possible.
- Remove the 12V / dry-contact jumper for the bank.
- Wire the common terminal of the motor into the terminal labelled 12V for that bank. With the jumper removed, this 12V terminal acts as a relay common.
- Wire the other relay input into the associated output channel number on the Lock Controller.
- When the Lock Controller is told to fire, it shorts the 12V and output channel terminals together. Where multiple motors are controlled from the Lock Controller, share the motor common terminals by wiring them all into the 12V terminal.
12V outputs
Lock Controllers can be configured to provide 12V power through to electric strikes and cabinet locks.
- Check which bank of the Lock Controller will be configured to provide 12V power to its outputs. Connect powered outputs (up to 4 separate channels and a load of 3A or less) to the same bank.
- Ensure the 12V jumper is in position to pass 12V power through to the 12V terminal on the Lock Controller.
- Wire the common / ground terminals for each load on that bank into the COM terminal of the Lock Controller.
- Wire the +12V supply for each output into the associated numbered output channel.
No connections should be made to the 12V terminal of the Lock Controller. The jumpers inserted in step 2 pass power through from the Lock Controller DC supply to the common terminal of the relay outputs.
