iSTAR eX Installation and Configuration Guide
16 general purpose inputs –- can be supervised with 1K, 5K, 10K, or not
supervised.
Four Wiegand direct connect read heads
Four relay outputs
Four open collector outputs
Serial – eight I/8s, eight R/8s, four RM Readers on up to four RM busses.
Wyreless – 16 PIMS, 16 Wyreless Readers on up to four RM busses.
An iSTAR eX has up to four RM busses available for Serial and Wyreless
connections. If you use an RM bus for a serial connection, the bus will be
unavailable for a Wyreless connection. For example, you can have 4 serial
and 0 (zero) Wyreless connections; 3 serial and 1 Wyreless connection, etc.
There can be up to 16 Wyreless PIMs with a limit of 16 Wyreless readers.
T
he maximum configuration per iSTAR eX controller is eight (8) RM (RS485)
readers, eight I/8 Modules, and eight R/8 Modules, for a total of:
96 inputs - does not include the special inputs for Tamper, AC Fail,
Battery Low, and three special inputs for external power supply.
88 outputs - does not include the two special outputs for external power
supply.
UL has evaluated the iStar eX with one I/8 and one R/8 for a maximum of
24 inputs and 16 outputs.
