1: BEFORE YOU BEGIN To install an ISONAS Reader-controller unit, you must complete three key wiring tasks: 1.Supply power to the Reader-controller unit. This may be accomplished with a power feed on the Ethernet Data cable (Power over Ethernet [PoE]) or through an external DC power source (12VDC or 24VDC) 2.Wire the unit to the door’s locks and other components for physical access...

1.4 POWERNET CONFIGURATION The PowerNet reader-controller has a set of jumper pins that configure both its input power source, and its lock control circuit. The PowerNet reader-controller can be configured for power to be supplied to the reader-controller through the 12 conductor pigtail (either 12VDC or 24VDC) or through the RJ45 connector (Power Over Ethernet).
Page 10
The PowerNet reader-controller has a Reset Button located on the back. It can be used for two different types of resets. It is helpful if the PowerNet’s Ethernet cable is connected, and functioning (the amber LED is lit). Monitoring the amber LAN status LED allows you to determine the status of the reset operation.
2.1: POWERING THE READER-CONTROLLERS All ISONAS Reader-controller models require a direct connection to a power source. The PowerNet reader-controllers can be powered with 12 volts DC, 24 volts DC, or PoE (IEEE 802.3af) power and the supply must be regulated. Many brands of power sources work well with ISONAS equipment.
Page 12
PowerNet Supplying 12 VDC to Door Components When using PoE, the PowerNet reader can supply 0.6 amps@12 Volts of power for the external door components. This power can be routed to the lock control circuit using the jumper pins.
If your network equipment uses this power provisioning technique, then you should budget 15.4 watts for each PowerNet. Such network PoE Equipment may allow you to manually configure the amount of power that should be allocated to each device.

Reader to malfunction. electromagnet. The door lock control relay inside the ISONAS Reader-Controller has a set of Form “C” contacts that are rated at 1.0 amp @ 30V DC. This means it can handle most locking mechanisms. If your application requires more voltage or amperage than this, an external relay that is controlled by the reader/controller can be used.

ISONAS Reader. 3. For a Fail Safe lock, connect the gray (Normally Closed (NC)) wire on the ISONAS Reader-controller to one lead of the electric lock. For a Fail Secure lock use the Reader's tan (Normally Open (NO)) wire instead.

BackEMF diode section for more info. Figure 8 4. Connect the other lead of the lock to the black wire on the ISONAS reader- controller. Additional Lock Circuit wiring Notes: There are many additional ways that the lock-control circuit can be used. Examples include: Gate Controllers, Intelligent locking mechanisms, and Fuel pumps.
In the ISONAS Crystal software you can configure how the door responds to the REX button. You must wire this switch through the ISONAS Reader-controller. (See Figure 9) First, connect one terminal of the momentary switch to the Reader's green wire.
2.2.5: WIRING THE DOOR SENSE Connecting the ISONAS Reader-controller to a door sensor allows our Crystal software to determine whether that door is physically open. Then the Crystal software can create alarms based on the door’s state. This wiring task is similar to wiring the REX or AUX About the Door Sense buttons.

2.2.10: USING THE POWERNET’S RS-232 INPUT The pigtail’s RS-232 signal leads (Yellow & White) can be connected to an external device that will pass a credential ID to the PowerNet. The most common usage is: To pass in a 2 to 9 character long ASCII data string.
Figure 15 Note: The WIM is easily identified by a yellow stripe The PowerNet can supply the 12VDC power required by the WIM. The PowerNet’s jumper JP1 is used to control this. This same 12VDC power can also be used to power the Wiegand device.

For Back EMF in low- voltage DC applications, a 1N4007 diode will suffice. However, for protection against other transient voltages (i.e. lightening), we recommend using a fast-switching transient voltage suppressor, such as a bipolar TranZorb.

4. If the reader-controller’s IP Address must be changed, then the ISONAS tool “Plug and Play” can be used to reset the IP Address. See the Crystal Matrix Software Users Guide for more details on using this tool.

Router. Figure 28 Configuring the ISONAS software is easy, you simply define an ‘IP address’ with the address of the Router (in this example it is 84.117.31.16), then each reader is given a unique Port number assignment under that server.
Page 46
Here is an example of the ISONAS Network screen for the above configuration: Port Forwarding requires steps outside of the ISONAS software; you must configure your Router to “forward” each port number to exactly one reader. This configuration is specific to the Router that you purchase and will be defined in the vendor’s documentation.
3.2: SECURING MESSAGES ON YOUR NETWORK You can configure ISONAS Readers and software to secure each and every message to and from the Reader using Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). When you enable AES in both an ISONAS Reader-controller and the Crystal software, every message to and from that Reader-controller is encrypted.
