OPTICAL WIEGAND, MAGSTRIPE & F/2F DATA EXTENDER
The ComNet FDW1000 data extenders provide optical connectivity between one card
™
reader and its associated door or gate locking hardware, to any Wiegand, MagStripe,
or F/2F-based control panel. The connection is completely supervised and secure, and
a pair of these units will support a single locking gate or door and its associated reader
using two multimode or singlemode optical fibers. The ComNet™ EXP100 Expansion
Module enables additional Wiegand-based devices to be added to the network.
An auxiliary I/O (input/output) interface is available for determining door, gate, and
control panel status and signaling, and a relay interface provides the door strike or gate
activation functions. See Figures 10 and 11 beginning on Page 5 for a guide to the
I/Os and Relay Controls.
The FDW1000 series are supplied as a remote unit for door or gate locations, and a
central unit for control panel installation, managed by use of a Dip Switch on each unit.
See Figures 3 through 5 on Page 3 for Central and Remote Dip Switch Settings.
These extenders are designed for long-term, reliable operation in harsh industrial
environments, and a fault-specific LED indicator is provided for rapidly ascertaining
the operating status of the extender and the link. See Figure 17 on Page 12 for an
explanation of LED indicators.
Packaged in a rugged aluminum housing, these units are designed for shelf or surface
mounting. See Figure A on Page 12 for mounting instructions.
See Figures 1 – 17 for complete installation details.
