• The U models are for US installations, and have been approved by UL for use as standalone units only. When used in combination with Rosslare's AxTraxNG™ software system, the AC-225x gives you full control over access to your premises. The system can control both single and double door entrances and up to four doors, with MD- D02 two Door expansion module.
Introduction Figure 1 shows the general layout of the AC-225x panel. Figure 1: AC-225x Panel AxTraxNG The AxTraxNG software system is custom designed to set up, manage, and supervise all aspects of an access panel network. Table 2 presents the AxTraxNG software capabilities: Table 2: AxTraxNG Capabilities Users capacity 30000...

AC-225x Panel Setup AC-225x Panel Setup Each AC-225x panel controls one or two doors (up to 4 doors with MD-D02). The panels connect together in a network and are controlled by a central server computer, running the AxTraxNG software system. Figure 2 shows an example setup for a network of AC-225x access control panels.
AC-225x Panel Setup Inputs Wiring – Non-Supervised Inputs Figure 3 presents a detailed view of the non-supervised inputs and their connection options. Figure 3: Inputs Wiring – Non-supervised Inputs Inputs Wiring – Supervised Inputs When wiring the AC-225x for supervised inputs, resistors should be placed on the input switch and not on the terminal block.
AC-225x Panel Setup Outputs Wiring Figure 4 and Figure 5 illustrate wiring for two main types of 12 VDC electrical release mechanisms. Other electrical devices can be switched using the voltage free relay contacts. Figure 4: Door Lock – Failed Close AC-225x Series Hardware Installation Manual...
AC-225x Panel Setup Power Supply Figure 6 illustrates wiring between the PS-33 power supply and the AC-225x. It is recommended to add a 12 VDC lead acid backup battery if the main power supply fails. If the main output is 12 VDC, wire it to the PS-33, whose load ratings are 1.5 A / 0.9 A / 0.3 A;...
AC-225x Panel Setup Reader Proximity and keypad readers are supplied with a limited cable. The color of the cable cover represents the cable’s function (Figure 8). When extending the cable distance, be careful with the color of the cable cover. Refer to the reader specifications for the maximum cable length (typically 150 m with an 18 AWG cable).
AC-225x Panel Setup MD-IO84 The MD-IO84 is an optional I/O expansion board which adds four relay outputs and eight supervised inputs to the access control panel. Attach the MD-IO84 to the AC-225x's expansion slot, as marked in red in Figure 9. Figure 9: Connector Location for MD-IO84 or MD-D02 MD-IO84 Installation and User Guide For more information, see the...
Input and Output Connections Input and Output Connections This chapter describes the AC-225x access control panel's input and output connections. Input Types There are four input types – Normally Open, Normally Closed, Normally Open Supervised 1 or 2 resistors, and Normally Closed Supervised 1 or 2 resistors. Inputs IN1, IN1A, IN2 and IN2A may be configured individually as either supervised or non-supervised inputs.
Input and Output Connections 4.1.3 Normally Open Supervised Single Resistor Input Connection Connect an 8.2 kΩ resistor in parallel to the input switch contacts. Normally Open Supervised Input has 3 states: Switch Open – Normal State: Loop resistance = 8.2 kΩ Switch Closed –...

Input and Output Connections When using the MD-D02, the following should be defined: Double door controller: Reader 1 – Door 1 IN/OUT (each door has two readers) Reader 2 – Door 1 OUT/IN Reader 3 – Door 2 IN/OUT Reader 4 – Door 2 OUT/IN Four door controller: Reader 1 –...
AC-225x Hardware Settings AC-225x Hardware Settings Each AC-225x panel controls an entrance. The behavior of the panel is controlled by DIP switch settings. Select the appropriate DIP switch setting to operate the panel as either a single door, a double door, or four doors (see Section 5.3). Access control panels configured as either single door or double door controllers have two readers, IN or OUT.

AC-225x Hardware Settings DIP Switch Configuration The access control panel DIP switch controls a number of operating parameters including the device address and baud rates for serial communication (Figure 16). Figure 16: DIP Switch 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Up is ON Down is OFF Table 4 shows a list of DIP switch numbers and their functions:...
AC-225x Hardware Settings Figure 17: DIP Switch with Baud Rate Setting The following lists Switch 1 and 2 status and baud rate: Table 5: Switch Baud Rates Switch 1 Switch 2 Baud Rate 9600 19200 115200 57600 The access control panel baud rate must be identical to the AxTrax Network configuration of baud rate.
Communications Communications Communication lines are used to upload and download information between the access control panel and the AxTraxNG software. When the access control panel and the computer are communicating, the system’s two LEDs flash accordingly. The RX LED flashes when the controller receives data ...
Communications 6.1.2 RS-485 Connection to the Computer Set the J1 switch/jumper to the RS-485 position. Up to 32 access control panels can be linked together and connected to a single communication port on the computer. Use the RS-485 interface for situations where there are multiple controllers connected.
This means that one AC-225IP panel can support up to 31 AC-225x panels. To connect to a TCP/IP network using other AC-225 models, add Rosslare's MD-N32 TCP/IP to RS-232 gateway converter. For more information on operating an MD-N32, refer to the MD-N32 User Manual.
When using an MD-N32, for a single panel, either an RS-232 cable or Rosslare's MD-14 RS-485 converter can be used. To connect an MD-N32 to more than one panel (up to 32 panels), Rosslare's MD-14 RS-485 converter must be used. Connect the MD-14 between the RS- 485 access control panel network and the MD-N32 converter.
Communications Rosslare AC-225x panel 6.3.2 Prerequisites Before performing permanent modem installations, the modem that will be connected to the panel must be initialized from the computer running the AxTraxNG software. 6.3.3 Computer Connections The MD-N33 must connect to the computer via a serial port.
