Mercury Security EP1501 Quick Start Manual

EP1501 Intelligent Controller
with Paired Reader Interface for One Physical Barrier
Installation and Specifications:
1. General:
The EP1501 intelligent controller provides decision making, event reporting and database storage for the
Mercury hardware platform. Two reader interfaces configured as paired or alternate readers provide
control for one physical barrier.
Host communication is via the on-board 10-BaseT/100Base-TX Ethernet port.
Note: For UL compliance, the Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) such as a PoE enabled network switch
and/or PoE power injectors must be UL Listed under UL294B.
Reader port 1 can accommodate a reader that utilizes TTL (D1/D0, Clock/Data), F/2F, or 2-wire RS-485
device signaling, also provides tri-state LED control, and buzzer control (one wire LED mode only). This
port can also utilize multiple 2-wire RS-485 multi-dropped devices, such as up to two readers or up to
eight remote serial I/O devices.
Reader port 2 can accommodate a reader that utilizes TTL (D1/D0, Clock/Data), or F/2F signaling, also
provides tri-state LED control, and buzzer control (one wire LED mode only). Two Form-C contact relay
outputs may be used for door strike control or alarm signaling. The relay contacts are rated at 2 A @ 30
Vdc, dry contact configuration. Two inputs are provided that may be used for monitoring the door
contact, exit push button or alarm contact.
supervised. The EP1501 requires Power over Ethernet (PoE) or 12 Vdc for power. The EP1501 may be
mounted in a 3-gang switch box; a mounting plate is supplied with the unit, or may be mounted in an
enclosure; the supplied mounting plate has mounting holes that match the MR50 mounting footprint.
