IMPORTANT NOTICES The Infinities are powerful and flexible access control systems, but may be damaged by incorrect installation. In particular, it is critical that Infinity systems be grounded properly. Each system contains static sensitive components that can be destroyed by static discharge if not grounded thoroughly. WARNING: Incorrect installation invalidates the warranty.
PART 1 ARRANGING PHONE LINE INSTALLATION Your customer should have the telephone company install a telephone line as close as possible to the Infinity system location. • This line can use either tone or rotary dialing. • Rotary lines are cheaper, but tone lines dial faster. •...
PART 3 MOUNTING THE CABINET ♦ This manual describes the "L" series (with telephone entry capability and a large display), since this is the most complicated installation. The unit is shown with optional CCTV. ♦ If your system is a "B", "S", or "DI" series, skip the sections that do not apply. NOTE: "B"...

D. CONNECTING UNITS IN A CHAIN If The Units Are Under 30 Feet Apart: 1. Connect the units via the RS-232 serial ports (see Figure 3 & Figure 4 circuit board diagrams). 2. On the first unit: remove the jumper from the CTS and RTS terminals on TB3. 3.
If The Units Are 30 Or More Feet Apart: Connect the units through the dual short-haul modems (See Figure 7). 1. On the first unit, insert the 2 conductor cable into the LINE 2 plug and tighten the screws securely. It does not matter which wire is inserted into which opening of the plug (See Figure 8). 2.
E. INSTALLING A NEW UNIT IN AN EXISTING MULTI-LINK CHAIN Once the unit is installed, resequence all the units in the chain. Enter the system’s configuration information into the new unit, (i.e., program access codes, relay activation times, holiday schedules, etc.). If you are using SPS or SPSWin: A.
OPTIONAL CCTV AC or DC Power: Connect one end of a two conductor stranded wire cable to TB 1 on the main processor board (see Figure 3 or Figure 4) and the other end to the transformer provided with the system.
PART 5 INSTALLING ADDITIONAL FEATURES The Infinity system has many standard features which can be connected during installation. Only card readers, built-in modems and CCTV cameras must be ordered as options. IMPORTANT NOTE It is critical to proper system operation that the specified cable types and grounding procedures be used.
D. BAUD RATE FOR RS-232 COMMUNICATION The Infinity can receive and transmit data via an RS-232 serial port at one of four baud rates (300, 1200, 2400, and 4800). The factory setting is 4800 baud. Change the baud rate by moving the jumper on the RS-232 BAUD SEL shorting block (Fig. 3/4). NOTE: •...
NOTES: • Line-powered modems cannot be used with the Infinity. • If external modems are connected to the Infinity telephone line, the Infinity must have the multiple entry option installed so it does not come on line when the modem is active. 1.

If The Computer or Terminal Is 30 Or More Feet Away: 1. Connect the terminal’s or computer’s modem to the first unit in the chain. 2. If you are using a terminal or a computer with an external modem, connect the modem to the terminal or computer (see terminal, computer and/or modem instructions).
Connect the Infinity and the printer as follows: DB25 Connections. PIN NUMBER ON DB25 TERMINAL ON MAIN CIRCUIT BOARD TB2 Place one jumper between pins 4 and 5 and Place one jumper between pins 1 (CTS) and 5 another between pins 6 and 20 (RTS).
H. HOOKING UP REMOTE KEYPADS/KEYPAD LIGHTS Each Infinity unit may have up to two remote keypads attached. • In "L", "S", or "DI" systems the main keypad is built into the unit faceplate and the auxiliary keypad is remote from the system. •...

J. HOOKING UP BUILT-IN MODEM/REMOTE PROGRAMMING/MULTIPLE ENTRY These options require no special installation. However, if you intend to program the systems via modem, multiple systems cannot use the same telephone line. If two systems are connected to the same telephone line, they will create a communication problem for the sending modem. K.
PART 6 INSTALLING THE AUXILIARY RELAY MODULE You can purchase an Auxiliary Relay Module (ARM) with a Multi-Link system. The ARM unit gives you timed activation for up to sixteen relays. You can use the ARM unit for such things as: •...
PART 7 TESTING AND ADJUSTING THE UNITS When connections have been completed, test the system’s functionality and adjust the unit, starting with the side tone (see page 27). The test sequence depends on the series system and options used. Before testing the unit, be sure to read the accompanying manual, Programming Infinity Systems with Multi-Link Firmware (Doc.
C. TELEPHONE ENTRY Test the telephone entry function as follows: 1. When the Infinity dials, the "OFF HOOK" indicator LED on the telephone interface board (see Figure 16) should illuminate and the person dialed should receive the call. 2. Voice communications should be distinct and easily heard. 3.

MODEL 1100329 TELEPHONE INTERFACE BOARD ADJUSTMENTS All adjustments must be made in the following order: SIDE TONE ADJUSTMENT: To adjust the side tone, the phone line must be connected to the unit. Infinity B Units: Adjusting the side tone balance is unnecessary. 1.
D. CARD ENTRY 1. Program the unit with some test cards and facility codes as described in the accompanying manual, Programming Infinity Systems with Multi-Link Firmware, Document Number 6001014. 2. Test the card entry feature with a volid card number and facility code. If the card is accepted, the LEDs on the front of the reader should change appearance, and the relay should activate.
H. MULTIPLE ENTRY 1. Disconnect the telephone line from the system and try dialing a number. If the system displays a "LINE IN USE - PLEASE WAIT" message, this feature is working correctly. 2. Reconnect the telephone line and the system should beep and display the message "LINE IS NOW AVAILABLE - PRESS # TO TRY TO CALL AGAIN".
FCC REQUIREMENTS INSTALLATION When you are ready to install this system, call your telephone company and give them the following information: 1. The telephone number of the line to which you will connect the system. 2. The FCC registration number for the system, which is DS83E7 - 17196 - ALE. 3.
