The optional Cisco Input Module (Figure 4-1) is attached to a Cisco Physical Access Gateway or Cisco Reader Module to provide additional connections for up to ten input devices. Each connection can be configured as supervised or unsupervised. A supervised connection is a four- state connection to determine if the connection is (1) short (2) is open (3)normal state or (4) alarm state.
Connecting a Cisco Input Module Package Contents The optional Cisco Input Module is connected to a Cisco Physical Access Gateway or Cisco Reader Module using a CAN connection to provide connections for additional input devices, as, as shown in Figure 4-2.
