3 Introduction

3.1 Description

The controller is equipped with two independent interfaces for Wiegand type readers. It is able to control one door with one reader in each direction and up to two doors with a reader in one direction only.

BOSCH APC-AMC2-2WCF - Description - 1

natural_image Technical line drawing of a mechanical device casing with mounting bracket (no text or symbols)

Figure 3.1: Access Modular Controller

All necessary information for access verification is stored in a battery buffered on-board memory and a Compact Flash (CF) memory card. This guarantees autonomous access decisions and complete access registrations even if the management host system is offline. The built in compact flash card provides adequate storage capability for cardholders and events.

The electronics of the controller are completely covered by a plastic housing. The LCD (liquid crystal display) provides all important status information.

The controller can communicate upstream to the host computer using RS-485 multi-dropped. It has four analog input devices and four relay outputs. With its analog input devices, the controller verifies, for example, if a lock is closed or open. The relay outputs can be used to activate lock mechanisms if access is granted, or activate the burglar alarm system if an intrusion or system alert is detected. If the four inputs and four outputs on board are not enough to configure the system, up to three additional extension boards can be connected. The extensions offer 8 or 16 additional inputs and outputs.

The setup procedure for a controller is made very simple and fast by the use of door templates. Once selected, all the inputs and outputs are predefined. These settings can be changed to choose every free contact of the controller or a connected extension.

BOSCH

Figure 4.3: Opening the controller's case

4.4 Closing the case

Before aligning the covers, unplug any pluggable screw connectors. Insert the hooks on the lower edge of the front cover into the lugs on lower edge of the plastic back cover [1]. Please ensure that the BOSCH logo is not upside-down. The upper edge of the front cover now aligns with the two-point snap-in closures on the upper edge of the back cover [2], and may thus be clicked gently into place.

Hence the closing process is the reverse of the opening process.

Figure 4.4: Closing the case

BOSCH APC-AMC2-2WCF - Closing the case - 2

Notice!

Risk of damage to equipment

If excessive force is required to close the front cover then it is probably incorrectly hooked into the back cover. In such cases the display dialog button in the front cover will be misaligned and will not function correctly.

4.5 Cabling

BOSCH APC-AMC2-2WCF - Cabling - 1

Notice!

Risk of malfunction

The cables used in the controller are not prone to electrical interference. However, you should avoid routing cables close to heavy load switching cables and equipment. If this is unavoidable, cross the cable at right angles every 1 to 2 m (3 to 6 ft) to reduce interference.

4.5.1 Conductor data for powering the controller

With the calculation below you can find out which cable type must be used. If you connect the power supply and the controller with the delivered cable set from the enclosure the calculation is not necessary.

For distances below 25 m (75 ft) use AWG18 conductors (1mm ^4 ). For longer distances, install an additional power supply close to the controller.

Please, calculate the voltage drop by checking the conductor specifications for characteristic resistance values. The voltage drop shall not exceed 2 V.

Example:

Length = 100 m/328 ft

$$ U = 1 2 V, \mathrm{I} = 1 \mathrm{A}, \text { maximum } U _ {D r o p} = 2 V $$

$$ i. e. R A W G 1 8 (a c c. s p e c s) = 6. 3 8 5 \frac {\Omega}{1 0 0 0 f t} o r 2 0, 9 4 8 \frac {\Omega}{k m} $$

$$ U _ {D r o p} = 2 0, 9 4 8 \frac {\Omega}{k m} \times 0. 1 k m \times 1 A = 2. 1 V $$

$$ U _ {D r o p} = 6. 3 8 5 \frac {\Omega}{1 0 0 0 f t} \times 3 2 8 f t \times 1 A = 2. 1 V $$

Critical condition! Install the power supply closer to the controller.

BOSCH APC-AMC2-2WCF - Conductor data for powering the controller - 1

Notice!

These specifications apply to power supply, readers, relay outputs, and extension interface.

Regarding inputs, specific voltage-drop values need to be taken into account. Refer to Connecting Analog Input Devices.

4.6 Grounding and shielding

The main grounding point at the controller is connected to pin 2 of the power supply connector - see Connecting Diagrams. It is good practice to shield all wires carrying low level signals.

The controller allows you to create a central ground or shielding point, simply by setting certain jumpers. Set these jumpers only if grounding or shielding is not achieved by other means.

BOSCH APC-AMC2-2WCF - Grounding and shielding - 1

Notice!

Risk of malfunction

Ensure that no ground loops are formed.

BOSCH APC-AMC2-2WCF - Notice! - 1

Notice!

In general the following apply:

If the devices have their own power supplies, the shielding is applied to one side only. The free end should be insulated to avoid inadvertent connections.

If one device is fed power by another, the cable shielding should be applied to both sides.

- no party line exists, the jumper JP1 is set (= A2)

- a party line exists, the jumper JP1 is set at the first device only (= A2)

Settings for jumper JP2:

If the ground conductor and the shield on the host are not connected and:

- no party line exists, the jumper JP2 is set (= A3)

- a party line exists and signal ground is connected, the jumper JP2 is set at the first device only (= A3)

- a party line exists and signal ground is not connected, the jumper JP2 is set at all devices (= A3)

Delivery statusB 1: B 2:

Figure 4.6: Location of ground jumper bottom side

Jumper B connects the internal ground of the controller to the RS-485 ground of the slave interface. Only set jumper B (B2) if the controller powers all other peripheral devices directly connected to it.

4.7 Connecting the power supply to the controller

Connect the power supply to the POWER 7-pin pluggable screw connector.

BOSCH

Figure 4.7: Location of the power supply connector

Connect an external power supply (10 - 30 Vdc) for the controller at pin 1 (positive) and pin 3 (0 V) of the pluggable screw connector.

If an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is used, the relay output for power good signals from the UPS is connected to the following pins:

  • pin 4 and 7 for power good AC
  • pin 5 and 7 for power good Battery
  • pin 6 and 7 for power good DC
    Otherwise these pins must be short-circuited.

BOSCH APC-AMC2-2WCF - Connecting the power supply to the controller - 2

Notice!

The battery status is checked every 5 minutes by the power supply unit (APS-PBC-60 or APS-PSU-60).

As the battery charging/discharging levels tend to vary, the AMC2 provides information about the battery status every 10 minutes. This feature allows a more reliable battery status information.

4.8 Ethernet Host Interface

The controller offers a 10/100 Mbit/s Ethernet auto-sensing interface to connect to a local area network or host computer.

BOSCH APC-AMC2-2WCF - Ethernet Host Interface - 1

Notice!

BOSCH

Figure 4.8: Location of the Ethernet interface

BOSCH APC-AMC2-2WCF - Notice! - 2

Notice!

After connecting a new controller to a network using DHCP, it can take some time before the new controller is recognized by the remote server.

You can accelerate this process by running the following command:

ipconfig /flushdns

This makes the controller immediately available by its name.

4.9 RS-485 Host Interface

The RS-485 host interface of the controller can be set for using a 2- or 4-wire connection. Up to eight controllers can be used on one host bus.
