Access ControlControllers & ProcessorsNetworkedIntelligentControllerACUXL16OverviewThe ACUXL16 Networked Intelligent Controller features state-of-the-art technology, and provides both the flexibility and reliabilityneeded to meet today’s complex access control and alarm monitor-ing requirements. Using a sophisticated, high speed embedded 32-bit, 90 MHz microprocessor and high-capacity 16 MB memory, theACUXL16 controls up to 16 readers. Each ACUXL16 supports largecard populations of up to 250,000 and has the ability to communi-cate over LAN, fiber, dial-up or RS-485 networks.The ACUXL16 interfaces with all GE Security Diamond II and Sap-phire Pro servers, and offers the widest range of features andflexibility, with a design focus on reliability, durability, and ease ofinstallation and maintenance.The ACUXL16 panel incorporates two external device ports, eachcapable of controlling eight readers/interfaces, which are multi-dropped using an RS-485 interface. Input and output capacity canbe expanded — see the ACU Remote Modules datasheet for details.Each panel includes a parallel printer port to provide local, real-timeprinting of transactions.Standard FeaturesSupports up to 16 readers and associated interfaces throughtwo RS-485 communication ports.Supports magnetic stripe, Wiegand, barium ferrite, barcode,proximity, biometric and smart card technologies. Each readeris user-configurable (card only, card & keypad, or keypad only).Variable card formats, multiple site codes and company codesare supported.Alarm Monitoring: The ACUXL16 includes 12 fully supervised six-state alarm inputs which provide false alarm filtering and utilizedigital signal processing. Any combination of up to eight remoteinterface modules can be connected in place of reader inter-faces for additional capacity, including Relay Output Modules(described below), and Alarm Input Modules (RIM) which provide16 additional six-state supervised alarm inputs with tri-color LEDstatus indicators (each).Each alarm input allows detection/reporting of circuit troubleconditions: loop resistance too low (short circuit), loop resistancetoo high (open circuit), loop voltage out of range (circuit fault),and a portion of loop grounded (ground fault).The ACUXL16 includes 12 SPDT relay outputs that are configu-rable for control of locking devices, activation of local annuncia-tors and other output applications. Each SPDT relay is rated at2.0 A, 30 VDC, and includes an LED status indicator. Any combi-nation of up to eight remote interface modules can be connect-ed in place of reader interfaces for additional capacity, includ-ing Alarm Input Modules (described above), and Relay OutputModules (RRM) which provide 16 additional output relays (each).•••••
