  • Page 5: Introduction

    Up to 100 SK-ACPE Panels may be linked together on a twisted pair (plus signal ground) RS-485 bus. When used with SK-NET™ software, a highly featured, easy to use, distributed intelligence access control system can be created.

  • Page 6: Setting The Facility Codes

    (note LED turns solid green for about 1 second and the beeper beeps to indicate that the card has been read). The SK-ACPE will “remember” the facility code and retain it until reprogrammed. It is not necessary to present the access card to the second reader since it is automatically set for both passageways.

  • Page 7: Installation

    TO AND DURING INSTALLATION TO AVOID ELECTRO-STATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) DAMAGE. INSTALLING THE SK-ACPE 1. Select a location for the SK-ACPE unit that is secure and sheltered from weather and extreme humidity. Choose a location that facilitates access to power and is reasonably close to the doors that are to be controlled (no further than 500 feet).

  • Page 8: Wiring

    InStAllAtIon & oPerAtIng MAnuAl WIRING The SK-ACPE unit is organized so that the wiring for door #1 is on the right side of the panel and the wiring for door #2 is on the left side of the panel (see figure 3).

    SK-ACPE. When 16.5 – 24 volts is used to power the SK-ACPE, you may connect the red and black wires to a 12 volt standby battery. Polarity (+/-) must be observed. The, 10” X 11” SK-ACPE-LE can accommodate batteries up to 4.0 Amp-hours...

  • Page 10: Outputs

    InStAllAtIon & oPerAtIng MAnuAl OUTPUTS Each door controlled by the SK-ACPE has two double pole, double throw relays associated with it. The “latch relays” are located on “J1” and “J2”, terminals 1-6. The “auxiliary relays” are located on “J3” and “J4”. One pole of the latch relay is typically used to open or close a circuit to unlock a door or activate a gate operator.

    Where the distance from the PC to any one of the SK-ACPE units is greater than 100’, you may install an RS-232 to RS-485 converter (Secura Key p/n NET-CONV-P) to the COM port of the computer. If your PC does not have a COM port you will need to purchase a USB-to-serial converter (SK-USB), and then connect the RS-485 converter to the USB converter.

    APPENDIX C CONNECTING A MODEM TO SK-ACPE The SK-MDM (U.S. Robotics) has been preconfigured to work with Secura Key access control systems and SK-NET-MLD software. (NOTE: SK-NET-DM and the free download version of SK-NET™ do not support modem connections.) NOTE: This modem requires version 3.0 or later of SK-NET-MLD software.

    Alternately, you can use either the SK-WLSE-MOD Wireless Network Module (which connects with an 802.11 wireless network.) This unit plugs into connector J12 on the SK-ACPE, and it receives its power from the panel. You must move the 2-pin jumper at J1 to pins 1 and 2 before installing the module.
  • Page 24 InStAllAtIon & oPerAtIng MAnuAl Hardware Connection You must connect a Windows computer COM port to the J11 port on each SK-ACPE, using the RS-232E cable (or to J7 using a wire pigtail, see Figure 3). If your computer does not have a serial COM port, purchase and install the SK-USB USB-to-Serial Converter on your computer, and connect the DB9M connector on the converter to the DB9F connector on the RS-232E cable.
  • Page 25 CONFIGURING THE SK-ACPE FOR A SERIAL PRINTER A Serial Printer can be connected to any SK-ACPE in the system to monitor (print) all system trans- actions. The SK-ACPE must be configured for this function, using a terminal program, such as SK-NET Terminal or HyperTerminal.
  • Page 26 HyperTerminal is available free in Windows XP, but not in later Windows versions. Visit www.hilgreave.com to purchase HyperTerminal for use in Windows Vista, 7 or 8. Follow this procedure to configure HyperTerminal for the SK-ACPE TCP/IP setup: 1. Connect your computer to the SK-ACPE being configured, 2.
